Jess talks to David Dague, Deej about Destiny at Gamescom 2013. Thanks for watching. Enjoy the game!
Destiny 2’s game director Joe Blackburn is stepping down ahead of The Final Shape, leaving Tyson Green to take the reins of the PS5 and Xbox FPS.
As someone who bought every story DLC for DESTINY 2 but not every season. the first thing I would do as game director is , if anybody pre-orders The ?Final Shape , they will be able to play all older DLC and seasons with purchase of FINAL SHAPE. . I think that would bring back a lot of DESTINY 2 plsyers who have not experienced the seasons a chance to play season activities before Final Shape comes out.
After a not-so-great 2023, Bungie is entering 2024 with a plan revolving around Destiny 2 and possibly more to expect from Marathon.
I expect Bungie will be folded into Sony and the leadership given walking papers.
Disappointment and lessons on how to grind in-game and in-industry.
What exactly should be be excited about to see from a company that does only one thing and keeps falling flat on their face?
Let's get real, all the relevant talent have since vacated Bungie. There is new blood, but it is directionless and or muzzled.
The end of Destiny 2 and the end of Bungie's independence. After 2024, who knows what Sony is going to do with them. We are still waiting to see what they are going to do with Housemarque and Bluepoint Games. All we do know is that the soundtrack will suck.
Forbes writes: "Sony may fully take over Bungie if Destiny 2's revenue does not increase and costs do not come down. But what would that look like?"
"While Sony purchased Bungie for $3.6 billion in 2022, the company has remained an independent subsidiary since then. However, if Bungie fails to meet certain financial targets, Sony has the power to step in, dissolve the current board, and assume direct control of the company itself "
They need to meet financial goals with Destiny if they want to avoid hostile take over from Sony. Sounds very similar to ABK when they were under them actually. What revenue targets do they need to hit? They over monetize and over charge which runs the community away so the player counts drop. Plus they're overseeing other in house 1st party games at Sony. They're being stretched and spread around.
There's actually allot more goin on at Bungie that recently came out.
Anyway under Sony they'll be more focused. Story implemented content from Destiny, better organization and just generally steer the ship around adding micromanagement tactics. Sucks but they have to that but Bungie has terrible management skills.
Seeing as part of what they paid was for employee retention and Bungie execs STILL fired a bunch of people, yea take over, and then fire management cause they clearly ain't doing a good job.
As much as I'm not a big fan of Halo. I did enjoy destiny MP but they seem to be all over the shop with destiny right now.
Like I remember playing and loving destiny 2 when it released. Went back to it when it released on PS5 and it's just different and confusing now. Like what happened to the destiny 2 campaign? It looks like is was replaced with the destiny 1 campaign?
Personally I think if Sony take over. Don't just make them do a single player game. Get them to do a halo inspired single player game but also the MP that they where known for with halo.
Cannot wait to play this on the PS4
Agreed. Wonder how fps games will incorporate the touch pad. #excited
