Forums - Gaming Discussion - The Order: 1886 Dev Defends Bungie's Destiny: "Review Score Under 8 Is Ludicrous, Deserves More Just For Scope And Art"

I just log in to say, people who rely on reviews to make a purchase are naive and foolish.You would rather use someone's opinion about a game than your own.This is nonsense.Destiny is a fun game for me and it deserves a way better score than 6.

I agree anything below an 8 is going to be hard to justify and I'm sure I can find past reviews by that same person that will contradict any complaints made about Destiny. I can't believe a game like TitanFall got an 8 but no Destiny that just make no sense at all to me. That game had so much lacking content, the story was BS, the AI bots were BS, I could go one and on with all the things wrong with that game. I'm one of the people who got the TF bundle just for TF I already had a PS4 and had no need for another system but TF looked fun. I was disappointed by it big time and only Angry Joe seemed to be honest in his review about the game. From the reviews I saw anyways.



I don't have much hope for the Order from what I am seeing. Sony Sanamonica should've been the lead devs of that game. I'll play it for the story, but i'm not holding out to hope.

100% agree. The game is very fun. Even better if you play with friends. 9/10



It's still a 6 for me so far, it's a high production game but has some serious shortcomings. My opinion might change as i play more of it.

Personally I think a score in the range of 6-8 is reasonable. I think anything below 6 would be unfair...but to criticise a review for giving it below 8, thats just silly.

regarding story criticism: imo gamers shooter standards have increased dramtically after games like the last of us. compelling storytelling is becoming more and more important across all genres. devs shouldn't expect shooters to hit top 8+ scores in the future without putting interesting charcters and storylines into it. just making it big won't help if you can't fill it with something interesting.



It's an 8.5/10 for me. The game does have its flaws though, e.g. repetitive campaign, pvp could use some rebalancing.

Well I guess reviewers are going to wait for their review copies to the last day aswell for the order then..

So just because one of the devs for the game defended Destiny you figured that means The Order will turn out the same? You know your constant Sony bashing lately has been getting a bit tiresome. 

Me where did I bash Sony?



so 1886 developers are scared and think they deserve 8+ score because their game is awesome looking ?
