Bungie Warns Day 1 Reviews of Destiny Have Not Played Entire Game
Bungie has warned that day one reviews of Destiny won't reflect the entire game. Deej has stated that the game is a live MMO and that reviewers won't get to play the full game until it launches when there are thousands of players.
"Without a vibrant population for the last safe city on Earth, and Guardians roaming the wild frontiers, Destiny is a shadow of what it should be," said Deej. "That’s not how we wanted to submit for review."
"We explored several options to populate the world for reviewers." Deej continued. "Our team estimates it would take thousands of gamers to ensure each potential public space in Destiny would be populated – that every activity would be accessible at all hours of the day and night. Where on Earth would we be able to find thousands of gamers?"
"For us, this is a first – a new experience. It’s a bit of a risk, too," Deej added. "We fully anticipate seeing day one reviews from folks who decide to kick the tires, but don’t have the time or patience to take our ride for a nice, long road trip. Some of you might wait to pick up a copy until you read the final verdict from your most trusted review house. We’re okay with that. We’ve created something we’re proud of."
Destiny releases tonight at midnight around the world.
