A loss or a reset due to an overpayment?

we told yall nikkas that was a horrible purchase, but sony dikk ridders said otherwise ,Bungie was already going down hill with d2 and marathon just put the final nail.. They failed destiny 2, which was their bread and butter and gave people some nonsense nobody asked for.

Sony's financial advisors are garbage and Bungie's leadership with making stupid decisions like moving most the their employees to marathon, which led to pissing off their base .

ignoring D2 issues over the years lead to the loyal D2 players been disgruntled so they weren't gonna buy this and also making a game in a genre that really is not wanted atm.

This was hastened likely by forcing live service. It looks like the Bungie purchase was a pivot to that, and they’re gonna take major Ls for it.

I say fukkem, stop chasing money pigs and focus on just making fun shyt

Definitely overpaid.

Biggest recent L Sony has ever took

Wonder if they’ll survive long enough to put out another game

Would Destiny 3 even sell like that?

Only thing I can see or they bang out another IP that's worth a damn.

fukk them nikkaz forever for costing us Factions. Herm needs to relight the project.

agree , but live service games are lucrative, recurring revenues selling u dlcs every few months, expansions, skins and shyt, i mean eververse , the D2 store was making bungie money...and of course at the time Witch queen came out ( i know acquisitions dont happen over night but u know) and everyone was on bungies nuts so it made sense that Sony though they would continue the momentum. Hence , why they left them alone to run their business as usual...after witch queen came lightfall and it was literally the downfall , went from a highly acclaimed expansion to half ass half cooked DLC.

Once you start losing the hardcore D2 gamers, aka PVE and PVP end game guys its a wrap..... you can only piss off your faithful clients so much

D3 might save bungie.. but

Yeah. All these live service games are failing because they dont offer anything new or novel to pull players away. They are cash grabs. Most devs dont even like working on live service games and good people end up leaving the studio to work elsewhere on the games they actually like. Look what happened to Arkane Austin after Redfall. Bethesda after Fallout 76. Destiny 2 was only good because they set out to make a good game first and foremost that live service elements flowed well synergistically with the whole experience.
Mfers just wanna make something live service just to make it live service and it ends up being ass

Remember that Avengers game Square Enix published that could've been absolutely fire if they spent time just making it a solid single player experience that shyt should've been a layup

This is a billion dollar lesson for these companies. Just make good games and people will buy. Greed fukkin Sony up again just like the early ps3 era
