Open your eyes dummies :mjlol:

:ohhh: What he said about those facebook/cell phone games:ohlawd::lawd:

That's why I don't play them, that's what I hate about EA, people are so stupid that they let BS business practices pick up steam, they let this shyt work. and what do we get in return, more BS nickel and diming tactics dress up in "AAA" titles.. I hate gamespot but shout out to him for telling it like it is

aight, finally looked at the vid and this guy is full of shyt lol....he sounds just like the cats on here (around the net) that are always asking 'why are people still playing destiny?' and saying whatever bullshyt reason that helps them sleep at night and help them think they still a cool kid for not playing....seriously, the vid was like he was reading from a manual: the 'they stealing our money making us pay for content that should be ours' talk; get scientific and compare it to gambling and the joy you get from the random payout/loot system; and to top it off go with insults....seriously, he compared gamers who play destiny to some fukking pigeons lol....now, the people that dont play nor like the game, are gonna only pay attention to those parts of the vid like it's gospel....well, hate to rain on your parade, but for every reason he brought up, he shot down on his own...ex: they stealing our money, but there aren't sub nor micro-transaction fees; so they not really stealing it/nickel diming us....

look: it's not that hard to understand why people play the game...it's very simple....the game is just fun (which he even said in the vid)...there's nothing mind tricking, trying to get your money's worth, none of that...to some, the game is just fun, so they keep playing...if it wasn't, they wouldn't...just like the ones that have tried it, didn't like it, and no longer play it...that's it....

as for the dlc shyt: destiny not the first game to pull shyt from the disc to sell as dlc, and they wont be the last...so stop with the 'what's gonna happen to gaming/sky is falling' bullshyt....I know people dont like hearing the solution, but it's true: if you dont like it, dont buy it...the only thing these companies listen to is the bottom line...if people didn't pay for dlc, they'd stop doing the shyt....

I see what you are saying but lets not act like me not buying a game effects business enough for it to matter.. It would take a large number of people to vocally voice their dislike for this type of stuff for it to make a difference.. Thats like saying the companies even know I didnt buy their game and why.. This guy is explaining what they did and how they got away with it. I shouldn't have to spend 120 just to get the same amount of content as GTA, Fallout, Skyrim..etc..which is only 60 and comes packed with so much more content.

I wanted to get this game but I refuse to buy a game that lacks a good campaign, a game that is only good for multiplayer is like a movie you can only watch in 3-D or having a bunch of action and no dialog then they turn around and say to get a 2-d version you have to pay $10 and to increase the dialog you have to pay more.. Like that type of shyt should be standard, and not optional. I don't have nothing against DLC when its done how skyrim does it, where it actually extends or add's to an already satisfying experience

being vocal does nothing...people are vocal all the time, just look around the net...it's gonna take people putting their money where their mouth is....until they do that, all that vocal shyt is just white noise.....

and what's with the 'it should have as much content as (insert a game)'?...that's another bs reason to try to explain why you dont like the game...cause all games dont have the same amount of content and no one expects them to....

you dont wanna pay for the game, that's cool...others did, which is cool too...but for whatever reason(s), the ones that dont play the game dont wanna accept others do....to them it's some mystery that needs solving when it's not that serious nor complicated....just cause you dont like the game nor wanna play it, doesnt mean everyone else has to think the same way.....

side note: if you still tempted to get into the game, just wait till the taken king drops in sept....you can get the base game and all the expansions (the first 2 and the new one) for $60, which is a hell of a steal....

Very depressing what gaming has turned into.....

Naw fam, did you watch Bethesda's E3 presentation? They straight shytted on basically every other company with their Fallout 4 presentation alone. That game is about to force any next gen hack developers to step up, and :cape: the gaming industry.

But breh still has *fingers crossed* outchea:whew:

What rubbed me the wrong way is that when i paid for that first "expansion" pack it didn't download anything... which lead me to believe that this "expansion" was already on the disc that i payed 60 bucks for and that I'm paying an extra 30 just to unlock it... They released an unfinished game and they gonna dangle the rest of it in your faces at 30 bucks a pop....

the difference between Destiny and some of these other games that released DLC or expansion previously is that once you beat Destiny, it was obvious that it was only part of a whole, and once i got that first expansion i realized how i had been played.....


As much as i enjoyed the game, I didn't buy this last expansion and I'm not gonna buy anymore. And if Destiny 2 ever comes out, ima be skeptical about buying that.


I just purchased the expansion...... Lord help me... Lord help us all

I didn't say it was this death of the industry but it sets a horrible precedent for future AAA games being designed to be scams
But thats just it AAA games were already fukked before Destiny. As far as im concerned games that have extra players as dlc are just as bad. There was a time when extra characters or secret characters as they were called back.in the day, were part of the game as is. And now its cool to buy character packs and all that bullshyt. The industry been fukked breh

I like Destiny and I play it alot. I'm more into PVP than PVE though.

I feel like I got my moneys worth. Playing games with my friends where this is an abundance of :russ::ohhh::sadcam::snoop::obama::krs::blessed: is the entire reason I play video games at all.


Aside from that the video was an interesting watch but when you really think about what's being said it shouldn't come as a surprise. A large company exploited human behavior in order to make a profit? You don't say ...

I think the more disturbing thing is that it succeeded in doing it where many have failed in the past and will probably fail in the future.

This system doesn't fail. It's been proven to work time and time again just on a smaller scale with smaller brands. That's why Bungie was willing to front 500mill and a 10 year plan to a brand new IP. You only make that kind of bet when you know you can't lose.

I think youre a good poster but I cringed when I read this post. The video wasn't meant to shyt in the game or say it was bad. Everything is rooted in basic psychology, which is the point of the pigeons and the slot machines. You didn't do anything to actually address what he was saying other than argue that activist on isn't nickel and diming you... I'm glad you feel that u got your money's worth but a lot of people don't.....


If anything we need more videos like this in gaming journalism and it's a shame that you simply dismiss it just because he's exposing your favorite game... I could see activisision reading your post and doing he birdman handrub
