Too small of an update to add a story.

SnotyTheRocket3503d ago

Okay, so when Dark Souls barely has any story, unless you go digging around for it, it's okay. But when Destiny does the exact same thing (Grimoire), it's a shitty game? Logic.

LAWSON723503d ago (Edited 3503d ago )

Dark Souls does not need a story it got unraveling lure (told by the environment, equipment, and dialogue) in a cool world with fantastic atmosphere. Destiny captures nothing even close to Dark Souls. Don't insult a game you don't play it makes you look like an idiot.

Also grimoire has to be read on the internet while DkS has all of the details in the game, nor is it near as impressive

PONTIAC08G8GT3503d ago

Personally I don't care if a game has a great story as long as it has other things to keep me interested, such as great multiplayer, great game play, excellent characters, something like that. Titanfall has no single player and a bad story, but the gameplay is a lot of fun. BF has terrible story, but MP is fun (when it works). Dark Souls, I dont even know what the story was in that game or Demon Souls, but the gameplay was addictive. Unfortunately, for me, Destiny feels empty and unexciting and the gameplay isn't all that great.

Nekroo913503d ago

LAWSON what about Skyrim?! Awfull story, animations, bad voice acting but it was gorgeous so 10/10.

Destiny brings something new to the table , its a different mix of genres so you cant compare it to another game alone, But bad reviewers dont understand that

Dontworrybhappy3503d ago

Don't pay attention to the dumb assess. The only people that are disappointed are the ones who over hyped the game. These people that over hype shit need to stop and see it as it is. Its a videogame, not the answer to the universe'. Enjoy the damn thing instead of being another half ass critic.

BeardedPriest3503d ago

Both games have very good lore. Ordinary players can't appreciate it because its not robot cars exploding.

PSN-JeRzYzFyNeSt3503d ago

Dont you guys Worry..... Halo and COD will get 10 out of 10 for its copy and paste.. while Destiny gave you open world, Loot and Great Multiplayer plus Customization to get 5/10 lol rigged system

cell9893503d ago

the one thing I hold against Destiny is the fact that you have to visit their website to get the full experience, I have yet to understand why wasnt everything just included in the game. Can someone please explain me why was this a wise decision?

Dirkster_Dude3503d ago (Edited 3503d ago )

Dark Souls didn't pretend to be or was marketed as anything other than what people expected of the game. In other words the majority of people felt Destiny was oversold by the developer or publisher. Also anything you want to know about Dark Souls you can find in-game whereas Destiny makes you hunt for codes to unlock information on a website as 1 example of stupidity. If I'm playing the game the 1 thing I don't want to do is take myself out of it and look something up on a website. Talk about crappy immersion.

BABY-JEDI3503d ago

I think you mean to say that the story could have been conveyed/presented better.

PSN_ZeroOnyx3503d ago

Hopefully some MP improvements

Cra2yey33503d ago

Most likely for the raid opening up. Played today and didn't notice anything different.

Perjoss3503d ago

Stability improved loads for me once I stopped using wifi and just plugged in a LAN cable. I do have a crappy and very old router though.

grahf3503d ago

Oh I noticed a huge difference... There was a giant red ball in the Tower! Progress.

mogwaii3503d ago

please please please let this be a stability update, so many people have been getting kicked out of sessions with "centerpide" or"bee" or some other animal/insect code word. soooo annoying!

LAWSON723503d ago

Strange I literally have never been kicked from a crucible game, only 2-3 times in story

DFray9193503d ago

i been kicked once in my 2nd crucible match. and i was like (O_O) oh no not this bull crap.

but other then that this game has been great! lag free. prefect connection.

retro_3503d ago

Agreed, I get kicked often and it's spoiling the experience for me ;(

ScottyHoss3503d ago

That sucks man :/ I'm lucky enough to have a good connection but two of my friends who play have connection issues as while, while the rest haven't gotten kicked yet (that streak ended for me last night). The best thing you can do is give an Ethernet cord a go, hopefully it'll help!

Nicxel3503d ago

Havnt had any stability issues on my X1.

Gamer19823503d ago

Its a stability update had a few teething issues no doubt due to high demand at launch. My fireteam kept getting split up after a couple of games. Played last couple of nights since patch and no issues.

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

LucasRuinedChildhood326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

This was back when the game wasn't free to play.

The figures are from November 2017 to February 2019 (1 year and 4 months).

Based on that projection, the MTX revenue for Destiny 2 likely would have been closer to ~$240m for 2 years.

Not sure if premium expansions are included in that figure either although ... I'd hope that they are though and that most of the revenue was for actual content like Forsaken.

People spend way too much money on cosmetics.

Rude-ro326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

Seasons($10 and just got bumped to $12) and dungeon keys($10 each, two a year) are through the eververse(micro transaction) store.
So for those two years, in order to play a season, you would pay through micro transactions.

Sonic1881326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

Bungie Marathon will be worse since it's designed around it as well

Kurt Russell325d ago

It makes me sad to agree... but at the same time I am looking forward to giving it a go. Destiny 2 is so far in, I find it difficult to figure out what I am meant to do first.

buffig326d ago

I think FIFA alone makes over $1bn a year from mtx

anast326d ago

FIFA promotes a worldwide sport. It should make more money than destiny.

CantThinkOfAUsername326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

Let's compare something similar. Apex Legends and its ridiculous $18/$40 skins make EA a billion each year.

z2g326d ago

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.

spicelicka326d ago

By "people" you're referring to millions and millions of people. Obviously the ones complaining aren't necessarily the same as the ones spending all that money.

There's millions that purchase MTX and there's nothing we can do about it

I've been thinking about playing through D1 again before it goes away...

CobraKai477d ago

That’s the sad reality of a game like this. I bought it, invested lots of money, and it can go away at anytime. I still think this was more fun than 2.

jeromeface476d ago

prob because 2 is a grindfest slog

spoonard473d ago

That's the bummer of 'games as a service'.
