Sony was dumb for buying them when they did. Bungie was already kind of in a downward spiral and giving them all that funding just gave them a much nicer toilet for the flushing.
I bought destiny 2 and a bunch of the DLC last year to see what it was all about and it was just a confusing, miserable mess of an experience from start to finish. Well, assuming it was start to finish. I still don’t know where the start was or what the hell was going on. I felt dumb for buying it.
Yup. Sony scammed themselves really with that one.
Destiny 2 is hard to get into as a new player, they kind of deleted all the initial story, so you kind of just get thrown in at the end now. Bungie never knew what to do with that game, they changed stuff randomly and could never decide what system they wanted.
The thing is though, it's a very fun and fluid shooter, the core gameplay is some of the best out there, it just sucks the content gets repetitive and the DLCs are all overpriced.
Oh yeah the gameplay and the environments made me really want to get into it more than anything else. I just couldn’t figure out why I was doing all this stuff or why I’m supposed to care about some dead character who I never met.
Just gotta ignore the lore unless you watch videos on it. I suppose you have to make your own goal in that game, there's no set ending, you just grind until you are bored of it.
I really like the teamwork activities, raids etc. They added a really fun exotic mission which you can only duo, but the community complained you have to communicate with a partner, so probs wont get anymore of that ahaha.
bungie hasnt been affiliated with microsoft for almost 2 decades now.
the whole point of destiny was microsoft wanted them to keep working on Halo, but they wanted to work on something else, so they bought their independence
Basically… “We’re going to be selling out more and won’t fight Sony managing us more”
Too bad Bungie, shouldn’t have had Joe Blackburn purposely break play styles and made tasks grindier in Lightfall because players didn’t provide enough “engagement” (playing longer)
Thus far, Obsidian has been very good at creating games within reasonable constraints, which means they’re typically not overscoped relative to the size of the game’s actual audience. And they do all of this while being a multi project studio that’s allegedly good to its employees.
Yes, I really like them as well. And I bet the game will be good too. I just worry about the game not selling good enough and with Microsoft’s current track record of shutting studios down, Obsidian being shut down as well.
Microsoft is a wrench in the works, but they’re not building a game any larger than they’ve been doing for some years now. This is still a game that is scoped so that it doesn’t need to sell 10 million copies to break even.
What I want out of romance in games is to have it take you by surprise, which often means it’s not a “romance option”. Some of the best character scenes I’ve seen wrapped some other major plot point into the fact that one person cares a bit too deeply about another, and processes it all very suddenly.
So I’m fine with this removal. All those romance choices in RPGs like Fallout and Skyrim felt ultra shallow to me. Even BG3 just seems like raw wish fulfillment from a horny cast.
Look I get what you’re saying, but they’ve realistically made two stinkers, Andromeda and anthem, and I actually like Andromeda not to mention it was made by a completely different and brand new studio that probably shouldn’t have called themselves Bioware.
I also enjoyed inquisition, it was fun and had a ton of commercial success as well as a really good final expansion that was universally praised. I get Anthem really burned a ton of bridges, but it’s not on the scale that places like Reddit like to make you believe. The gameplay was legitimately fun, the story was awful and all over the place.
LOL no, you’re just trying to farm the Bioware hate circle jerk. Inquisition was fine, mass effect 3 has the best gameplay and storylines of the original trilogy outside of the ending.
Do better, this isn’t Reddit, you don’t have to “karma farm”.
I got past the hinterlands. Skimmed through it, in fact, after hearing online that there was nothing there worth doing.
The rest of the game failed to grip me as much as the first one did, and I didn’t even like DA:O as much as other games in its genre. Granted, I also dropped Dragon Age 2 like a hot potato, so perhaps if I had enjoyed that game more, I wouldn’t have been so turned off of Inquisition for being marginally more tolerable.
