Forums - Gaming Discussion - Destiny GOTY (12 Awards; Nominated to BAFTA Best Game)

Why should it get praise? It's shallow, repetitive, boring, looks like crap, has an awful story, and terrible enemy design.

"It's a prime example of how the nebulous concept of "content" can be used to puff up a game without adding anything to it. There's a ton of "stuff" in Destiny. You'll never want for things to do ... but it's terrible at providing motivation to do any of it."

"Once the final, hackneyed closing scene finishes, fireteam members are awarded the same weapon, regardless of class, and a handful of currency. This reminder of how wholly unspecial you are is the big finale of a lavishly produced but troubled game that excels in the basics but lacks creativity and heart."

"The pieces are there, but too many of them feel malformed or half-realized to make Destiny recommendable."

"Destiny often feels like a collection of its influences' biggest problems."

lol

Reviews from 3 months ago... read the recent articles and Destiny is into all the Best Games of 2014 list.

Just some examples...

GiantBomb? It is in the best games of 2014 list there
Polygon? There give the award of the most interesting game of 2014

I can go ahead.



I don't have time to make the quote now but the game entered in the Giant Bomb's best games of the year list.

Pretty good too.

How much are Activision paying you, ethomaz? :p

Maybe Activision decided it's more cheaper to pay him to praise it than paying reviewers, Activision’s stock dropped when Destiny released so this may be the reason he is doing this.

This thread reminds me of a Toastboy thread (most of them) it's funny looking at it. XD

Edit: ok "funny" isn't the right word, I say that most of his threads are interesting but this thread is funny.



Proud to be a Californian.

Well I listened to it until near the end but couldn't listen anymore as it seemed that's what they were settling on. What a load of crap lol 



And this is why I want another gaming crash. People will support corrupt companies. If this were any other industruy, companies like Activision would be bankrupt.



Bet with Xander XT: 

I can beat more games on his 3DS than he can on my PSVita in a month. Loser has to buy the winner a game on his/her handheld Guess who won? http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=193531

Me!

I admire your enthusiasm for the game Ethomaz, but unfortunately (or fortunately) many here already has made up their minds on Destiny.

Enjoy the game, the time of convincing others has past.
