Already at #35 at its highest peak on Twitch on dropping fast, Destiny 1 remained in the top 5 for 3 years

Reminder that the new Mr.Clean is now a dirty nigger.

I'm calling bullshit.

now that's fucking disappointing

Dude his name is Mr Muscle, I bet he's fucking strong. Plus the goggles can protect his eyes from any of Mr Clean's dirty tricks. Mr Clean has no chance.

Mr Muscle is wearing a labcoat
he's a fucking nerd

He's wearing a labcoat as to not intimidate lower lifeforms like you with his super freak muscles. Look at that fucking chiseled jaw and that dominating hand gesture. He's the definition of an alpha Chad.
Mr Clean is wearing a fucking earring, he's most likely a homo. I have no idea why people call him Mr Clean, I bet he takes poz+ every night like the dirty manwhore he is.

Exactly, Mr Clean is going to fuck Mr Muscles up the ass with the only muscle that actually matters.
Hes called Mr Clean because thats what you'rr going to do to his shaft after hes done with yojr butthole and face bitchboy
Mr Muscle is going to feel Mr Cleans
Half saggy nuts on his chiseled jaws and not even his shitty googles will save him from the torrent of pozzed splooge that he will have to take to his face.

Guys, can we please stop talking about gays and buttsex for five minutes?

So think they'll let it die or just try and stick it out until they realize the game is a ghost town? Game is crashing so hard it'd probably cost them less to just shut it down.

Destiny 1 was considered a flop and they went and did Destiny 2 anyway. The suits have a shitton of money spent on this brand and I don't expect them to make a smart move.

Destiny 1 supposedly had fairly decent launch sales. They probably expected the same idiots to buy it again. Corporate suits are that detached from reality.

sure, want to provide a source on the rest of that you faggot?

Oh I saw this happen before. Made a similar thread making claims about Destiny 2 with no source, and called anyone who called him on it a redditor.

That the base game, OP was talking about the DLC Osiris which they did give a 5.5
And thats still not a good source since its an easily editable image

Fine, archive for that, then archive.is/sC2Nz
The DLC did get a 5.5 from them so i'll give it that I guess.

Thanks for delivering

Fuck, you both beat me to it.

Bungie died the moment they decided to release Halo 3. You're beating a dead horse.

how did they die upon deciding to release halo 3? enlighten me

Those were the first signs of them trying to be Activision

Bungie died the moment they were acquired by Microsoft.

The story was fine in my opinion, but they fucked the multiplayer harder than Jim fucks his underage flip whores. Hit registration was terrible (and still sucks in the Master Chief Collection), which was a huge downgrade for anyone who liked using the BR. The new weapons were ass, like the Mauler and spike grenades. "Ooh a worse version of the shotgun and a second sticky grenade…for some reason…so cool! Equipment was so bad for competitive play that even Bungie themselves realized it a few months after release, and was forced to make an MLG playlist with no equipment. The maps were uninspired, with many being ripoffs from Halo 1 and 2, with the worst offense being a DLC that ruined the best map from H2 (Lockout into Blackout).

I will say that Forge was fun. It allowed the playerbase to extend H3's lifespan way beyond what it should have been, but at the same time it made Bungie be even more lazy with updates. It's like when PC devs just say "ah fuck it the modding community will fix it". That's essentially what happened with H3. Every popular gametype and map was community made. Overall the game was dogshit compared to the previous two games with the exception of Forge.

Bungie died when they released that dirt-tier Doom clone back in 94.

Oh and the Halo 3 sniper. That FUCKING sniper.

They didn't fuck with hit registration, they just fucked with the babby-tier autoaim.

Bullshit nigger. I had so many fucking times playing that game where I would be aiming at someone's head and shooting (with the crosshair being red mind you) and the enemy would be taking no damage. If you don't believe me go load up H3 on the Master Chief Collection and try it, it's still just as bad.

But for the record, I do agree with you that auto aim is bullshit. It's one of the main reasons I switched to PC back in the day

Also I always turned off auto aim in the Xbox settings (even before H3). Not sure if that did much, but I hated it even when I was a console fag. All auto aim does is fuck with your aim and make you less precise.

It never completely removes the autoaim on a console.
It simply removes the low sensitivity when you're looking at an enemy, the sights will always lock on to an enemy when you're shooting, aim assist will always be there.
Its why Rare and FreeRadical games are still superior to this day.
They aren't PC shooters adjusted for console limitations like we started having after 2004 and still have thanks to that design philosophy becoming a trend, they were console shooters built around console inputs.
I'd take a console shooter that blatanly locks on to an enemy and then has free aiming like 007 Everything or Nothing than the downright shady hidden handholding garbage we have today.

The irony is that UBIshit stuck with the division and just released a 1.8 patch that fixes a lot of the endgame.

...

That may have been somewhat true last gen when CoD resued assets, the additional layers of graphical polish, giant dev teams, and enormous marketing budgets mean these games need to sell hugely on launch and keep milking players through loot crates and microtransactions.

You remember the Dead Space 2 dev who spoke about the kinds of marketing budgets these games have, right? Dead Space 2 was a pretty modest game compared to the inflated AAA trash the industry saw at the time and sees today, and it still had a marketing budget almost as large as its development budget; initially the guy said it was $62 million for the game and that much again for the marketing, but he later dialed the numbers down to around $30-40 million if memory serves.

Point is, Destiny 2 needed to sell stupid amounts (which it kind of did) and then RETAIN the attention of those players so they'd spend money on dance emotes and the like (which it did not). The cut content expansions are also intended to be small injections of cash to keep the studio afloat because they have so many fucking people on the payroll. The new expansion sold like spoiled milk now that everyone realizes what a bland bowl of gruel the game is.

The game won't be an outright failure, and I don't think it'll impact ActiBlizz's coffers too much, but it did severely underperform and that will make the bean counters angry.

I miss lock-on shooters, and Crackdown in particular had a good system where you could lock on and choose particular body parts based on which way your target was facing. Horizon: Zero Awards, for all its flaws, could have had better core gameplay if they'd gone with some kind of lock-on aiming system that emphasized the fact the protagonist used a bow and arrow. Train your aim on a target, then make small adjustments to hit specific parts like heat sinks or hinges to cripple the robot dinosaurs. There's a crafting system, too, so you could even shoot off different crafting materials like different types of metals or crystals, or something.

But no. Take your shitty console shooter and like it.

How do you know this?

CoD WWII has characters talking with not even a single mouth movement on the models.
I don't think you know how many corners they cut from these shitty ass games because most fags playing it have the attention span of a 13 year old or are 13 year olds themselves
Fair enough, but like I said, Activision will still be around and so will their shitty games and kikery.
Even fucking Jaws Unleashed had shit like that and it was neither a shooter or necessary.

Even the goddamned 24 game had those kinds of aiming mechanics.
Everything is a goddamned checklist nowadays.

Free weekend. Was pretty fun compared to Destiny.

Shit, really? Do you know what level that occurs in? I'd love to see it.
For every cut corner, they need to pay another programmer's salary or commission another load of viral clickbait videos, metaphorically speaking. I don't deny they cut corners visually, but you remember how Overwatch's marketing included giant booths in the main square of some of the most crowded cities on earth? People like us don't remember it too much because it isn't aimed at us and we filter stuff like that out of our lives, but normalfags are easily swayed by marketing. I must reiterate the Dead Space 2 dev's point, which was that most AAA games have marketing budgets at least as large as their dev budgets.

That's Mass Effect: Andromeda-tier.

Heres a hooktube link if you don't want to use Jewtube or think I'm shilling
I still think he makes great content
From what I saw from the Steam forums this is the most blatant one, some of the stealth missioms where you play as a female fench spy you can listen to conversations of German soldiers, those don't move as well.

Oh yeah, least I forget
This is the state of the AAA industry right now, even Pedowood isn't this bad.

It's funny how suits forget that good games are their own marketing scheme. Why spend 40 mil on marketing when you could spend half that amount on adding more and refining the game to a high quality, and then spreading through word of mouth?
I know it's not vidya, but take Homestar Runner for example. They never advertised that website, and yet it got HUGE amounts of traffic purely through word of mouth, and merchandise sales enough to keep the creator afloat for years.

They don't merely want to stay afloat. They want to sail on a luxury liner built on cheap metal and menial labor. The greed is just endless.

I'm not expecting them to give the Wehrmacht soldier a bunch of captured and repurposed MAS 36 rifles over the KAR 98K in the D-day mission, but really?

That's amazing. Thanks for sharing.
That should be its own 10hr video. I wonder what they called the variable that holds the number of French corpses allowed in memory.

Even vidya analysts paid to do this shit are the most pathetic excuses of human beings I have ever seen and don't know jack shit as they're usually from general electronics and/or software, much less investors who only want to see results and nothing else but can still apply tons of pressure on people who actually know their fucking shit.

Also this, the more mediocre and cut a product no products anymore goym you own nothing service is, the more the profit.
You think EA uses Frosbite for all their games by simple coincidence?
Shittons of assets are reused, they don't have to pay for licensing and they can keep the engine locked down from any external developer to meddle with it.

Activisions Cabella series are the biggest pieces of garbage the world has ever seen and they still see a profit, and they keep making it instead of putting that money on actual good games or a new developer.

Why do you think EA management is so bad?
They funnel money from other projects once a certain one gains more interest to put it on more marketing and then fire the devs once they complain they can't finish their goddamned contractual obligations.

AAA companies like EA, Activision, Ubisoft and 2K don't care as long as their top executives are fat and greasy thats all that matters , they are the lowest of the low and they make companies like Squeenix and even Microsoft at least on the gayman side look like saints.
The only ones worse than those fucks are Tencent and Nexon.

I'm amazed at how few people know how scummy Tencent are.

Aside from that though, you're completely right: It's often unknown by people just how much money EA saves on production by cutting all the corners they do. They set ridiculous goals sure, but even if they sell far below those goals they still make money hand over fist.

wasnt destiny supposed to be a "10 year game"?

"We have a 10-year plan for Destiny."

Sure, its not like these fucks blatanly lie and get away with it everytime.

...

Is the ten year plan to re-release the game ten times?

Lad…

You think Japanese and niche games getting a surge of popularity is a coincidence?
Core and more educated vidya players are making the move there while AAA keeps their kiking and losing normalfags to mobile.

Also forgot to mention Activision also owns King.

No, I think gaming is becoming less popular in general, which is good. If Japanese and niche games get too popular this process we saw in the West will repeat itself, we already see it with VNs and Sekai Project.
But you're right, smarter folk are moving away from Triple A. I personally love AA games the most.

AA creeped back in like people predicted which is great.
Even Nordic/NuTHQ is making good shit now
Please no

That's what I'm sayin man. If Jap/Niche games get too popular, Sekike clones out the ass. And as we've seen, people still fund the kickstarters and buy the shitty TLs. The consumer is retarded in most cases.

Definitely Mr. Clean, he's the type who looks like he's killed a man before. The other guy looks like a generic future dude from The Jetsons.

Bungie knows Activision's fucking greed has ruined the Destiny Franchise. They're jumping ship to another project, but they'll probably be fucking idiots and partner with activision again.

How old are those guys?

Likely late 40s
