Support NeoGAF

[ethomaz]

It is set to break the preorder record for Destiny 2's expansion.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Gonna buy it on a later date, just as a token of support to Sony.

 

[Swift_Star]

But I was told nobody played destiny and that this game was a flop. What was that P PlaystationFan5349 ?

 

[Bruno_Arrais85]

Can't wait

 

[PropellerEar]

Played Destiny 2 when it came out, but GAAS is not for me.

 

[NickFire]

But I was told nobody played destiny and that this game was a flop.

It's because they took it off a subscription model last year. Rules are as follows: If its on subscription, it's the best game ever and everyone who pays for it is a sucker. But if its not on subscription anymore, its trash. Pure trash.

 

[sircaw]

I don't know what pre-orders normally look like but that seems like a lot of people.

I believe he choose the words right… while it is set to be a record for Destiny 2 it is nowhere close to reach Destiny expansion pre orders.

Bungie lost a lot of players from Destiny to Destiny 2… hope they can lure these again.

But hey massive numbers even when lose some continue being massive.

It is a flop. Nobody cares about this game. Record for DESTINY 2, they can't even take into account Destiny 1 lol.

1 million seem to care.

ryan has been clever all this time , deceiving us all

and hermen hulst is like the devils advocate

 

[NickFire]

It is a flop. Nobody cares about this game.

Thanks for confirming what I'm guessing everyone suspected.

But sure Jan, a million pre-orders for an expensive expansion years after the base game released, clearly means it is a flop. It's just science.

DLC normally minimal compared to the actual game sales.

But I guess you need to compare this to WoW expansions more than normal DLC now it's F2P and this kinda garbage is how they make their money.

Which of the green rat alts are you?

I think you need to give Destiny 2 another try (saying this based on somethings you keep saying which aren't necessarily true.) Destiny 2 is the best it's ever been.

 

[STARSBarry]

So when are they vaulting this content?

 

[Arthimura]

I played vanilla Destiny 2 and Forsaken. After that I felt they started to delivery less story and content in general and the grind was too much, so I stopped playing.

 

[ethomaz]

Yes I need to give it another try.

Said that the numbers are indeed lower compared with Destiny… maybe a lot of users needs to give another try.

 

[Bragr]

Wow, that was a lot more than I expected. No wonder they are still milking this game.

 

[Lone Wolf]

It must be an addiction or something. They actively remove content that you paid for and people come back for more.

 

[Zok310]

Yup, getting it off principle alone. But I fuck with D1/D2 for real tho. 4k hours and counting, but won't get WQ at launch. Learned a long time ago not to combine Destiny with other games, playing Destiny during droughts is the best way.

 

[Roxkis_ii]

This last season story was pretty good. I stopped playing after the story break, but I've had a lot of fun with destiny 2.

With that said, I think I'm going to take a sit and wait to see how they change things up. Leveling to the softcap was fun to me, so them removing that kinda killed my reason for playing. Destiny doesn't seem to have much casual endgame content.

1 million seem to care.

1 million is nothing these days. Halo Infinite is played by more than 10 million and we know that's not a great game either.

Is someone thinking they are flying too close to the sun and trying to change the narrative?

That is at least 1 million full price PAID players.

Somewhere in a PlayStation fans basement, a PlayStation fan is screeching life a vampire bathed in holy water.

Hey bro, where did you get that 10 mil figure? It don't look like 10 mil are playing halo on steam.

 

[Phase]

Idiots, the lot of them.

Content that we played the shit out of for a year. Content that cost 10 fucking pounds a season.

 

[Putonahappyface]

I thought this game was loaded with micro transactions? How is this turd popular?

 

[Honey Bunny]

Surely Phil counts as 2

The microtranscations are cosmetic and don't effect gameplay.

 

[Tomeru]

Destiny was never a subscription game though?

 

[Putonahappyface]

Fair enough. Something back in the day put me off of buying it and I think it was the crazy grind to unlock stuff.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Fair enough. Something back in the day put me off of buying it and I think it was the crazy grind to unlock stuff.

The grind is still there for earning light levels, but if you're talking about getting legendaries and exotics it's not that bad anymore. They practicaly give them out

They did get alot of bad press when Destiny 2 first came out for a lot of bad decisions. But Bungie has corrected course, and the Destiny 2 of today is hardly recognizable compared to how it started.

 

[tmlDan]

It is a flop. Nobody cares about this game. Record for DESTINY 2, they can't even take into account Destiny 1 lol.

I'm curious, why do people make their name one thing and act another - did you think it was clever? a good laugh huh?

children these days

 

[Swift_Star]

You guessed right.

 

[Banjo64]

Lmao the PS fans tripping up over themselves to compliment Destiny now sure this GAF reaction would have been the same if they hadn't been acquired

 

[Warnen]

Gonna buy it on a later date, just as a token of support to Sony.

It's no returnal

 

[Warnen]

I for one am glad Sony gamers will have to praise destiny unconditionally like Last of Us 2 from now on. Feels so refreshing.

 

[PropellerEar]

GAF likes all kinds of GAAS games

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Lmao the PS fans tripping up over themselves to compliment Destiny now sure this GAF reaction would have been the same if they hadn't been acquired

I've already got a couple of templates prepared for when Microsoft buys someone else

Kojima is a hack
Hitman was always trash
Lol Ubisoft never made good games
Capcom? More like crapcom

Just to name a few

 

[TheKratos]

Destiny was a game I thought I would be playing a long ass time but my interest died real quick. Looks like a big adventure game from the outside but you quickly realise how shallow it is IMO.

 

[wOs]

When does Destiny 3 come out? I'll try another iteration but I'm done with 2. I put a ton of time In 1, but two didn't grab me the same.
