The original 60dollars gave us a 10-15hour campaign ( of repetitive content) then a week long raid (the time it took to figure out yourself how to beat it) and unbalanced broken pvp without dedicated servers. This in itself is worth 30dollars. Why? Because its exactly what one of the "expansions" is. A few missions a few strikes and a raids. This game is a moneygrab. TO CONTINUE PLAYING YOU MUST PAY FOR THE EXPANSIONS. There is no more free content. These two dlcs should have been free because they both reside on earth and venus. Also they supplement the exact amount of missions/strikes/raids that the game came with. This is completely ignoring the fact that each mission played was in the exact same level and you were just opening one extra door each mission until you reached the boss.

But cod is worth 60 bucks? 8 hours of campaign thats a rehash of every other shooter and multiplayer thats nothing but repetetive. Same can be said for bf4. Or youre into mmos. In which case 50 bucks for a wow xpac that added pandas? What really constitutes worth. Assume all games are 60 bucks. Did you enjoy it? Yes? Great. No? Big deal its only 60 bucks. Dont like it move on. Oh there was hype so you got your hopes up and was let down because nothing could really achieve what the hype created??? Welcome to gaming/movies/politics/life. Remember disneyland as a kid? Now thats something thats fails to reach the hype (even at 7)

Free mmos stop at around level 60-100 this stopped at 20. Plus those mmos were actually different. Different enemies and different tactics had to be used. Now looking at the fps aspect. The game is way too unbalanced for a shooter and there are too many variables. They promised more than we got.

Free MMO's that look like garbage compared to Destiny. Leveling doesnt stop at 20 last time I checked... Different tactics? You mean pressing 1,3,2 instead of 1,2,3? Yeah, MMO's sure had the better gameplay with the tab-targetting and press hotkey action. Zzzzzz What unbalance are you talking about?

Edited by SIlMPLlClITY: 9/29/2014 9:55:13 PMMy bad 29 when you upgrade your gear. Also some mmos look very similar in graphics(in quality of course they dont have the same things) and they aren't 30fps. Are you saying this game is balanced. Oh boy... And the different tactics are pretty much different tactics. You dont just approach the monsters by just shooting at them because they are meat sponges. The raid boss is an example of just some of the basic bosses in mmos

Level cap is 30 bro... I'm having a hard time comparing the gorgeous environments of Destiny to your free MMO's. If you honestly believe there's competition between the 2, I don't know what to tell you... And no, quantity is not better than quality for Destiny. What's wrong with 30FPS? Are you just bitter than its not 60FPS and therefore think its worse off for doing so? That's a pretty lame reason. Yeah, I am saying the game is balanced. Im still waiting for you to give me examples instead of dodging the question. So, you're telling me that the Molten Core fights were more than the tank and spanks they all basically were? You wanna talk about a boring raid...lets talk about MC. And, you're playing a FPS (First Person Shooter) were you expecting something else besides shooting things?
-
Ok 30. The 30fps doesnt make me bitter its just a bit unattractive as it doesnt run as smooth as other games, but just because I mentioned it doesnt mean its a big thing. Its a small thing. The campaign is the exact same thing. The pvp is shotgun and super only (your primaries are secondaries). The strikes are pointless because you dont get anything good as the chances are really low to get anything good out of it and the raid is fun but you can only do it once and yes you can do it on hard but the only different reward is the vex weapons so not much motivation (for my group at least)
-
Games runs smooth at 30FPS. The 60 FPS is an elitist gripe. Shotgun is getting a range nerf. I admit that it sucks turning a corner into a SG, but hey, if they saw you down a long hallway, they're screwed. Its about map/radar awareness. Strikes give you Vanguard marks which are anything but pointless. Raids have always been week long lockouts since they first became a thing, or it become a popular way to handle them.

Its not quite enough of an mmo to be able to actually compare to mmo's and yet just enough of one to create an atmosphear and pve aspect that tends to create unbalance. Im sure the balance portion will be a constant battle of patches and tweaks the lifespan of the game. The real problem in my mind is that it falls almost too much inbetween game types meaning you get the benefits of both but also the short coming of each. Lending to both double the praise in some regards but also double the critisism. You make a valid point but thats more a problem of the game to its core more so than the issue of game cost + dlc cost. And core issues are more based on personal preference and bungies ability to fix or patch those issues as time goes on. Which may or may not make the game great or destroy it. I have high hopes though
-
This is an excuse people are using. Its a fps not an mmo its a mmo not a fps. Its both and you look at it from both ways.

Edited by SIlMPLlClITY: 9/29/2014 9:05:00 PMAlso please stop saying that the developers and publishers need to make their money back. The 500m dollars is over 10years. Plus they already passed that sum on pre orders alone
-
Well, how else do you expect Bungie to support a game for 10+ years if all they do is rely on the single purchase of Destiny? Seriously? I'm so surprised at how people think Bungie is trying to steal money with their DLC. None of you people have the faintest idea about running a business in one of the most difficult industries.
-
Of course you add dlcs. But the game individually is small. And the dlcs are adding 5-6missions(probably killing the same things) a strike (will get boring fast) and a raid(only good part but not worth the price)
-
Sure, the core game could've had more content, I'm not gonna argue that. But I think it has ENOUGH content to keep me busy until the DLC. We've basically traded the cost of a subscription fee, for staggered content releases. And I'm pretty much okay with this.

Youre one of the few.

Apparently. A little surprised by it as well. But at least we're getting some answers. https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/2hrpzx/ama_request_someone_from_bungie_or_activision_who/ckvowy2

i'm surprised people like you are defending this BS.
-
It's only BS to you because you want your game and you want it now, doesnt matter if it burns the company, instant gratification gimme my cake now, or watch me throw a tantrum. I know, it's hard to grow up.
