| iceland said: There are Xbox gamers that like it on this very forum, again why would they even be biased against Destiny? I don't really understand, cuz it has DLC? It's silly That's like saying if a bunch of playstation gamers are only saying negative things about CoD because they're bitter about timed DLC... or you know they actually think the game is bad. |
I actually think the hype around Destiny has been due to Sony fans having a Bungie game be so favorible to their console choice. The whole Xbox fans hate Bungie for turning on them is mostly something perpetuated by Sony fans and media. Ive seen at least 20 articles defending Bungie against hateful MS fans and have never seen a single article or messageboard post(though I am sure that they exist) showing this angst. Sony fans love to say "why are xbots so down on destiny, just because the DLC or Bungie. Stupid Xbots lolz" but it is an invention of their own imagination. Sony fans see it as MS fans hate it because it is better on Sony and a reather large a vocal community LOVE this. Maybe its just not that good. If you look at the pre orders there is only a 50,000 difference in preorders(though that does not take into account the bundle)
Destiny doesnt look amazing, doesnt seem to have revolutionary story (atm), no amazing control changes, doesnt have any major groundbreaking gameplay mechanics and to myself doesnt seem that great(not the best judge as I dont really play FPS on consoles).It doesnt seem like game of the generation or even a contender for game of the year. Destiny hasent really been raved about by reviewers either. Maybe it isnt that great.
Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.
Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
