What is it about Destiny that makes Playstation enthusiasts believe you must have ulterior motives to have a negative impression of the game. As if it's so good it is beyond honest criticism or something lol. Talking about posts like the one above and many more like it, or that thread.

That's rich coming from someone who can't even be honest about the hype his GOTG had. ¬_¬

Both games are clearly hyped like crazy. But it's quite obvious Titanfall was was more hyped than Destiny. It was hyped as the second coming.

"Have you seen Titanfall?"

"Believe the hype!!!"

"GOTG!" Even though it hasn't even started yet.

And so on...

Where was I dishonest about the hype Titanfall had? Titanfall might have had more hate here and in other forums as it was a polarizing topic, but Destiny has had much more hype. As it should, launching on 4 consoles, from Bungie, and the start of a $500,000,000 project by Activision.

You're confusing some peoples unrealistic expectations (aka bububuu "it's the second coming") with hype. Hope that helps.

Destiny deserves much more hype than TF. Think about it, anyone who owns a 7th or 8 gen console can play it, its the most ambitious game in years coming from one of the best devs in the industry. Now people have just played a snippet and out BLOWN away. Yes blown away by a Beta. 2 weeks ago it was on my "maybe" list now I am more hyped about it than any game in years.... got to go back to Zelda Twilight princess to find a game I was more hyped about (Huge zelda junkie). In fact I really have not been "excited" about a game in a while seeing as I look at it as a pastime/hobby.

 

I am sure TF is fun have not played it, but it was not available to a huge % of console gamers and sold itself as an innovation for the FPS genre (which I hear it is) Destiny is going be more of an evolution of the Genre. I literally spent the 1st hour I played in the "OMG what is this" mindstate.
