good job completely ignoring everything else that i said and missing what i was saying is a fact.

be realistic with yourself, ill break it down super easy.

first of all, sit in a chair or something, perhaps in a dark room so you can really have an honest discussion with yourself on both sides of this question.

does destiny have 3.2m people playing it because of how stellar of a game it is? hmm.. well, lets see. it isnt critically acclaimed.. so thats out. more gamers have expressed negative opinions about it than positives, so positive word of mouth is out.. an insane amount of money (an amount of money that probably should have been poured into actually making the game) was put behind it for advertising.. so maybe a lot of sales are attributed to the ubiquitousness of it. it has giant names behind it pushing it, which kind of goes back to what i just said about advertising, so yes this game has been shoved down our throats and we have been told so many awesome things about it, so maybe it sold a lot based off of promises.

so yeah. there really is nothing indicating that this game has sold a significant amount based off of it being a quality title. there is more evidence suggesting that its the highest selling new IP because of.. other factors. that dont have to do with it being a great game. are you really going to continue denying that?

C'mon.. how do you know the bolded?

The word of mouth is what is selling Destiny in my opinion... I just head good things about it.

If says here in VGC people are saying it is a disappointment... I can say GAF is 100x bigger than VGC and the people there are loving it... it is already in the OT7 when the record was Halo 3 with OT8.

You can leave your bubble and face not EVERYBODY share you opinion or your friend opinion.

A lot of gamers things Destiny is great and enjoy it.

You are being annedoctal... that is why it success is hurting you... you are using your bias here to try to says the game is not a quality one when it is.

People are different and like different things... Millions of gamers like what they are seeing in Destiny.
