If Destiny has proven one thing to gamers, it’s that review scores need to disappear. A lot of people love Destiny, but it’s getting an average of approximately 6/10 from many reviewers just a week after launch. With a ’6′ often considered as a ‘bad’ game by the community at large, the numerical rating system is flawed at best, and broken at worst. It needs to stop.
Destiny has made over $160 million in MTX revenue, and these numbers only account the data from late 2017 to early 2019.
That's extremely low for microtransactions, especially for a game that's essentially designed around it
For as much as ppl complain how much they hate microtransactions, they sure don’t act like it. No wonder they aren’t going anywhere.
In Episode 1 of Spot On, a new weekly news show, Gamespot talks about the dangers of chasing a trend.
Playing Destiny 1 on PC has been something fans have been requesting for years. It looks like Destiny 1 is now playable on PC via the RPCS3 emulator.
I'd love that.. But it'll never happen. The numbers are marketing tools, and more. A lot of gamers base their decisions on these numbers.
6/10 from many reviewers just a week after launch.
Lot of people were finishing the game after playing it for 7 hours 9 at most. So i am sure they could review the game after a couple of days. And most of the big reviewers were given a copy way ahead of time before release. That game isn't going to produce new and startling surprises after launch. The game is set in stone about a month before release date.
aconnellan@ Yes, but the lows scores were for other things that just how the game ran. The build blocks were there to judge the game.
I think Destiny is ok, but nothing special. I'd give it 7/10
Lol. Never going to happen. Destiny deserves a 4/10
No the number scores don't need to go away. Reviews just need to take place over the course of a longer period of time. If they don't, they should be labeled as First-impressions.
No they don't. They need to keep them so that i dont end up buying shitty games like destiny. The majority of the time i find reviews to be pretty spot on. The hype sold that game and thats it. Its bungie
