The LE only sold by Gamestop? It's still on stock. And they can still go fuck themselves for being the only store to have it.
Who cares which "snarky, ~META~, 4th-wall-breaking character" people are comparing him to? and who cares when someone found out about Deadpool?
It's gross but people just accept these kind of things nowadays. "You don't have to buy it" or whatever thing they say. Capitalism is great!

Something about the leak showing very far plans on DLC and expansion for a game that's barely been announced feels weird to me. I know that's how it is nowadays, I guess I haven't gotten used to it yet.

He's not exactly wrong in this case I think. As someone who really only plays on PC now a days, it's not like Activision has had a good track record with their FPS games on PC lately.
Even if it's Bungie, I think this is more a console thing.

Did not feel this trailer at all
Felt like pandering and not a check out this cool new sequel to our game

Wasn't perfect, but they at least attempt to adjust the cheap aspects of it each patch. It's definitely where most of my playtime has went to and I've enjoyed every minute since day 1.
This is correct.
How....what.....eh ?
The game is a coop , mmo thing that relies on constant content being released over it's life. There isn't anything sinister about an that.

It's borderline borderlands, sadly. Cayde is just not a character I'd want a focus on. Not that I'm saying he's the focus, but the less of him the better imo.
Destiny's biggest problem with the legion of millions of players had always been lack content, and slow release of content. Having a roadmap to expand end game isn't a bad thing in this type of game, seeing as it's very much a game as a service.
Basically they just announced a minimal of three raids in the pipe.

I didn't say they didn't enjoy it or that they wouldn't fine entertainment in it, I was just commenting from a consumer perspective that you have to keep even buying the expansions to even play the base game, or stuff you have access to in vanilla. The game then to me was never labelled dumb I don't like the concept of mandatory expansions. It was like I didn't buy Halo 3 ODST which included the second mythic map pack of three maps so I got locked out of most of the playlist because I didn't have three maps. Similarly applied to Destiny the only meaningful expansion I found was the Taken King when checking it out at people's houses compared to everything else. Though having too​ buy all expansions regardless of the individual quality of the expansion just to keep playing is something I've never been a fan of. I like options not having to buy something so I can keep playing it. I don't know how that turns into me then infringing on if people had enjoyment with this model or not because that's not what I was getting at, it was about being locked out of stuff.
Agreed. I'm sure the actual game will be fantastic but that's not my style of humor at all.

Me being greedy, but until Destiny can compare to a full (successful) MMO's content expansions/releases, I'm going to be annoyed by it. It's not a full MMO, I know, but it's so damn stingy in comparison.

I mean...It's a logo. We can't play that so whatever. As long as the game is great they can ship in a soup can for all I care.
I'm hoping we can toggle 4k/30 or 1440/60 on Scorpio.
Yeah, that trailer was pretty awful and tone-deaf, especially when it's showing imagery of families running through a collapsed city and people dying, but yay for loot? Doesn't exactly instill confidence for how Bungie will be approaching the storytelling this time.
Still excited for the game though. The Destiny universe has such amazing potential.

Fps with a controller on PC? Gonna get wrecked
Cayde is awesome. I for one can't wait to see more of his antics ever since they fleshed him out in Taken King.
I just like how bungie is now fleshing out these characters they've been sitting on for a bit. Cayde, Saladin, Eris, sorta Amanda Holiday.
Hopefully they reveal more about the Stranger and The Queen/Reef.
Yup, but I'm also not sure I'd like the total randomness and loot spam you tend to get with traditional MMOs. And this is bungie, they have a hard enough time with balance as is!
Jokes aside, hopefully they're putting that rumored 1000 workers to good use.

People have been doing that for a looooooooooooooooong time. I like controllers more but I prefer the options on PC, best of both worlds. I'm excited to (hopefully the port is good) finally play Destiny at 60fps.

I hate this part of their marketing so much. What happened to the excellent spots that Bungie would put out for Halo?

Mal is a Deadpool ripoff too.
And Castle.
inb4 someone realizes the other half of Pool's schtick is being a blatant ripoff

Activision vs Microsoft
A fair bit of turnover in upper level staff
Different IPs with different focuses
Yeah hopefully the port isn't a mess. I fear that it could be like Arkham Knight.

I guess it depends on the game. I did play GTA5 on PC but FPS is a different beast, at least competitively.
For PvE stuff whatever you like best
And same here 60fps with a great resolution is going to rock.WhiteRabbitEXE

I have faith in Bungie in that regard. Unless they outsource again like they did with Halo, but I doubt it. They'll likely be heavily involved.

Just give me info about where I can buy the PC version digitally. I don't see why Activision wouldn't choose Steam.
Yup. Seems like half of the people here feel that the tone of the trailer was off too

60fps would be awesome across all versions, though I don't see that happening without XB1 and PS4 versions being slightly gimped
Bungie has definitely been listening and learning from the community over Destiny 1. Hopefully communication will be open and seriously looked at during the beta.

Hope it has native Steam Controller support, I'm finally getting used to that and it has been hard to go back to my PS4 controller in shooting games.

I mean I expect it to be good (if they can match TTK in a full-size game, then great even) but lol no, not GOTY.

I expect it'll be fine and not that bad. Worst outcome will probably be something like not being able to go above 60. Luckily unlike CoD, the beta will also be on PC so that gives me hope.

It'll be interesting to see how they handle controllers on PC for this, if it'll have magnetism or not in something like PvP.
I think it's because it wasn't your usual 95% description of serious situation with a 5% comic relief "mic drop". It was a turn by turn, 50-50, serious vs. comedic transition for its entirety. TTK went in that direction, but this teaser and trailer blew the doors off.
You raise a good point. I'm not into the tone at all, personally. Cayde was perfect in the teaser but in this... it was trying way too hard.
