Yeah that's a really big error and there's no need for 'that' in the title either. 

The quotes I posted were only the first few I stumbled across. They do not all belong to the category of posters previously mentioned. That would require far more effort.

Well if Destiny is the big AAA game that everyone expects it to be and it sells more console on one side than the other by a significant margin. Then the "hate" will be justified. lol!

you do realize that the most popular FPS of the past 8 years (CoD) was an RPG based system right? Go play CoD at lvl 5 and tell me that there is parody with a lvl 70, yes if you are better than them you can beat them, but you are at a disadvantage.

Since they are going to scale people armor and weapon POWER down to make the playing field somewhat fair the main difference between a lvl 20 and 5 will be how many perks the lvl 20 will have (and highlvl weapons how more perks you can buy which are not scaled away)

So to me your post is exactly what I was referring to in this thread. Taking an aspect of a game and saying because it, it will be broken and unbalance without mentioning the fact just about EVERY other FPS out there has some sort of RPG based lvl/gear system to me is you hating on it in an unfair why. Your motives for not wanting to like it? Who knows, I already offered one theory in the OP.

The vocal minority are upset it's not coming to WiiU/Bungie went multiplayer pen and treats the PS4 version as the lead version.

I'm upset the story missions we've seen aren't impressive and PvP is bad.

I guess that makes me the vocal majority?

Nope, I actually I agree with you. I'm adressing the people who are upset about the fact that the PS4 is being treated as the lead version :P

Eh... I haven't noticed people upset about PS4 being the lead version. Atleast I haven't gotten that impression.

However, I've seen plenty of people upset about visual parity.

I can only speculate, but the obvious reason a WiiU owner will downplay this game is because it's not coming to WiiU.

XBone gamers, I believe, downplay it because it could very well be the "next big thing" (you know, with the rave previews and the $500M ad budget) and that push is gonna be for PS4. At least, a lot more so for PS4 than for XBone. So they start saying "it isn't that great" to try and undermine and ignore the game, because Destiny will probably be "just another game" for XBone, while it'll be a "killer app" for PS4. If the game had been exclusive to PS4, you'd get the typical downplaying, but acceptance from the previews and people's beta experience. But because they're getting the game too, and it's looking like it's not gonna do much in favor of XBone, they're opinion drifts into a vacuum (as in, not looking at the effects it'll have outside their own console) and Destiny becomes a "meh" game to them overall. 

Like I said, speculation. Reasonable speculation, but speculation nonetheless. And just to jump the gun on a possible response of "what, am I not allowed to dislike the game without being a hater? Maybe I genuinely don't like it"......I'm not necessarily saying that. But it is extremely fishy that 95% of the destractors are Xbox fans. You'd think a sentiment would be equal for a game that's multiplatform (for example, PS and XB fans alike think Call of Duty: Ghosts is mediocre), but nope. Most of the dislike is almost exclusively on the Xbox side for, what most likely is, the above stated reasons. 

I think its absolutely ridiculous to assume that xbox fans dislike it because of how ps4 is the lead platform getting exclusive DLC. There are multiple examples where this just isn't the case (watch dogs, battlefield, assassins creed) so there is no pattern to these claims. The only reason I can think of is that xbox fans mostly love halo and comparing destiny to halo will come naturally and from this certain comparisons could be made in which the PvP seems lacking quite a lot, especially when compared to past halos and that the enemies and AI don't seem as memorable. Bungie showed a little of what to expect in halo reach of destiny and the halo community didn't like it so why would they praise destiny of doing the same things but taking it a lot further?
