Three months later I still love it


Frankly I think to many people had expectations so high, that no matter how good it was, no game could ever satisfy them. Destiny is flawed, like every other game, but it is how a game rises above its flaws that defines it.

They don't like Destiny, therefore they don't like any game. Rock solid logic there buddy.

No that is not what I said, I said that their expectations were so high for destiny, that no matter how good it was,nothing would meet those expectations. I was not saying that, if you don't like destiny you hate all games, that is a gross over simplification of what I said.

It's still an extremely weak argument. It doesn't even enter into your mind that it might not be a great game. It's the player that's the problem.

Destiny is a very good game and, it is not a weak argument. Watch_dogs, destiny and Assassin's Creed Unity all are under the gun because, of expectations being too high. And, that is the publishers fault, they create hype and, expectations so high no game can match them. Destiny is not a bad game, it is a great game as a matter of fact. It is not perfect and has plenty of faults. But it is a very well made game, that is plenty of fun.

It does not deserve the unjust harsh criticism it received. I can list plenty of reasons why the game is fantastic, I was simply voicing my opinion and defending a game I admire. Your the one attacking me for no reason and, with out a real argument. Your just picking apart what I said, your not even giving a compelling counter argument.

No one has to like destiny, and it is not for everyone. But just because you do not enjoy the game, does not mean it is a broken or, poorly made game. The combat and shooting mechanics are unmatched, the level design is superb, there is plenty of content, great visuals and a decent story. It seems you like so man, just dislike the game and, want to put it down an any one who likes it. I was never trying to say you have to like destiny, or that it is the greatest game of all time. I was simply saying I loved the game, and it does not deserve all the unjust criticism it received.

And just because you do like it doesn't mean it is a good game. Just look around here, IGN, or Facebook. It's gotten a lot of criticism.

You're obnoxious, you ignored the point of his post and focused on what you wanted so you could take a cheap shot or two.

You're either unintelligent or a troll.

You musn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, Darling!

Decent story? Excuse me but, are you retarded?

Well I would have heard your criticism, if you had written something valid. People only result to insults when they have no argument. Does picking on others really validate your life that much? I mean I dont really care what you say to me, I am perfectly happy with myself. But it seems your life must be terribly unhappy, after all why would you choose to try and hurt someone? Well thankfully you picked a a fight with someone more intelligent than you, and I can see that your just crying out for help. Please seek help, life does not have to be so awful. Hurting others to make due with your own life is a very serious sign of mental illness.

Well I mean, did you pay attention to the story at all and compare it to other games at all? Like, did you do any of that before you said "decent story". Or is this the one and only game you've ever played?

A story being good has nothing to do with other stories. I do not judge a game by comparing it to another game. And look at yourself, you did not prove your point at all. Why is the story only decent? Did you bother to read the lore, did you bother to listen to the world? I am so sorry that your lack of intelligence made the story less impactful for you, but that seems to be more of a personal problem. Also lets see you go and write a better story then come back and judge this one MK? See I gave you a chance to make your case, you failed so move along. You have no understanding of how to write a story or a make a game, once you do then go and judge games. You did not like the story, that does not make it bad. I said decent and I stand by that, decent means decent not great, not grand, but serviceable and enjoyable. Gamers like you who bitch and moan with little understanding of how to write a story or create game are the reason the industry is suffering. You seriously think you could have made a better game, please go and try. Here is the thing little one, games are not made to be judged as if they are garbage or gold. Games are made so the gamer can find an experience that suits them best, an experience that will provide the entertainment they are looking for. A review is meant to describe the experience and allow you to make up your own mind. Destiny was just not the game for you, and that is something you immature idiots need to learn. Just because a game is not your style or what you were wanting does not make it a bad game. No infact it just makes you look pathetic for bitching about a game that millions love, all cause you didn't like it and regretted buying it. How sad for you, how sad that your life much suck so hard that you want to lash out at random people. Well my good sir since I have your number, all I feel for you is pitty.
