Its like whack-a-jew
Bungie confirmed Destiny for PStripple and Xbox 360 now in maintenance mode
I'll play devil's advocate and say that the raids require you to have at least of sliver of brainpower. Most casuals can't be arsed to put any effort into actually getting decent at the games they play. It doesn't help that the only way to put together raid teams was on some third party website, which is brilliantly retarded on Bungie's fault.
When compared to its peers (aka other console shooters), it's actually not the plague on earth people make it out to be. However compared to most PC shooters of old, it's utter trash.
It's an online, multiplayer game for consoles. Because it is hosted on paid servers in control of the publisher and/or platform holder, they have only incentives to move on from it as quickly as possible on older and/or underperforming consoles.
They have to move you along to the new consumer product. It's not like PC where something can be a cult classic and hang around for years and years.
It was made by Bungie. Unfortunately they brought with them the beloved Bungie "we have 3 months to release and we haven't even decided on a genre yet" planning.
I don't know what the fuck Activision was thinking, they appeared to want to cut the game into dlc but then none of it came out. So anyone dumb enough to buy this has like one tenth of a game.
Marketing, lots of it.
I thought they had budgeted a cool 100 mil for a ten year plan? What the fuck happened?
It's still happening, just on PS4 and Xbone
Wow this game was supposed to be the beginning of a new 10 year franchise like World of Warcraft.
Cost hundreds of millions iirc.
Schadenfreude.
a port to PC will save this game.
People dropped it because there wasnt shit to do.
I got it back when I still played on consoles, I thought it was going to be different. The world is so fucking empty, you can go anywhere you want, but why would you? Theres no reason to, no wandering boss's you would hunt down, or shit to collect. Once in a while there would be some world event for you to tackle with randoms or who you had squad up with but they were limited.
The most interesting thing that happened to me was when I was dicking around by some high level dude while they were farming some cave that spawned hive, that was patched btw. All of a sudden a ton of high level hive dropped out of the sky and started to tear through everyone. No idea what it was about and had not seen it happen since.
It was so hollow.
