I may live in another world because I never saw anybody comparing them lol maybe because I'm not a US resident.

Might as well get my money's worth. Thought there would be more than what the beta gave since it was supposed to be a server stresser. But no, I should have waited for reviews. Now this is what I have to play until Master Chief Collection comes. But either way yeah, i think i have the right to talk about what I paid for. 

While you talk I'm loving and playing... you don't see the issue here?

We are different... no problem here but you are in each good Destiny thread spreding the same "opinion" about the same things... every single thread is the same thing... don't you get that? You don't have anything more to talk... it is already the same comment, reply in the last three of four threads.

Just play and enjoy the game.

It's one thing to knock a game that has bad reviews, but you haven't played it, so your opinion is based completely on reviews. But I find it really ironic (funny, even) that the people who repeatedly keep saying how boring, unimpressive, etc. Destiny (a game with "generally positive reviews") is in every thread....keep playing it. It's not like you can't sell it for $40+ easily online. Or even $38.50 from Gamestop, of all places (if you have Power Up rewards, $35 without). Then you can take that money and put it toward some game you (supposedly) actually like. 

But no, keep playing a game you dislike, just so you can tell everyone who enjoys the game just how bad it is. Seems like a completely normal thing to do.

I know if I buy a game and it, to me, turns out to be a turd, I get rid of it. Not keep playing it. I know that that's a far out, crazy idea. But that's just me

All of my games are digital

Yikes. Unless a game is on sale (digitally) or sold out (at retail), I'd never buy it digital. Just for the sake of resale. But that's just personal preference.

But either way, if the game is so flawed and unimpressive, I don't get why you'd continue playing it. I bought Knack when the digital version was on sale from Amazon, cause it was cheap and I thought, hey why not? Game was....uggh. Digital game, so I can't return it. But I don't continue to play it. I don't like the game. I'm not gonna keep intentionally putting myself through experiences I dislike, if only for the sake of "getting my money's worth". Instead of being intent on that, admit it was a "bad buy" and move on. It's a strange phenomena to purposefully do something you don't like.....then complain about the thing you don't like, doing the things that make you dislike it

Halo and Destiny are comparable when they're both Sci-fi fps games made by the same developer.

Yeap like Star Wars and StarTek... both are Sci-fi and have ships.


You're right, and they're constantly compared.  Thanks for proving my point.

LOL yeah I was literally chuckling when I read that silly comment.

And I like how it's suddenly a bad thing to continue playing an unimpressive or flawed game. Hmmm.

Why silly when I never saw a comparision between the two?

Lol wow, yeah you need to catch up on the past 40 years of pop culture. Ironically they're now both being directed by the same guy. Even more reason to compare them.

Thats why its silly, you literally brought up the two most compared franchises of all time to make a point.

Sorry my bad... for they are two different franchises and I never compared them.

It's a bad thing when all you can do is talk about how unimpressive and flawed it is. Seriously, if you don't like the game, why play it? It literally makes no sense. I don't like Justin Bieber. Would it make sense to keep listening to his albums, if only to say "I don't like Justin Bieber"?

It's backwards as hell. "Yea, this game is repetitive. It's unimpressive. The PvP is broken. The reward system is broken. [Insert other complaint]. Let me go ahead and play it some more, so I can keep talking about how much I dislike it" said no logical person, ever.

Hummmmm...

Looks like he loves the game even more than me

 I'm just kidding.

Except there are good elements in Destiny, which I have said before. I've also pointed out there's not much else to play right now, since I am taking a Titanfall break and burned out on too much Diablo. Your music analogy is too flawed and shitty to even give a serious response to.

Also, it's a loot game. People play bad loot games all the time. Protip: I also made sure to reach the endgame in Borderlands 2, another flawed loot game. I will reach the end in Destiny, and then I will be done. Hope that helps.
