Destiny 2. Battlefront 2. Shadow of War.

Those three games are the epitomize of what’s wrong in today’s AAA gaming industry.

Bungie are like an abusive partner that keeps saying sorry, but won't change their behaviour until their partner leaves them... A partner that doesn't quite have the intelligence to just walk away instead of believing them every time they apologise.

Please, gamers... Zero tolerance for these lying, cheating, abusive pricks.

Oh wow, Big deal....

Yeah, this is why I just don't play these shitty games. Why volunteer to put up with this type of crap? No thanks lol.

I think people are pretty much tied with bungie of crap regardless if it's a big thing or not. I'm not sure when companies are going to learn that you can't Swindle Gamers anymore like you used to. People have a voice and they'll use it. Just look at EA Bungie. No really... look at them

They really are testing they're fans loyalty and patience, this is obviously a company that takes zero feedback from its consumers otherwise there wouldn't be so many anti consumer steps taken in such a short amount of time, its really hard to ignore and it says a lot about the people that choose to continually support and defend these practices

Why did i get suckered into buying this tripe?! I should have learnt from the first steamer!
Time had past, i dont play these multiplayer online games often and thought i could play this with my brother....then the memories came flooding back of the grindy bullshit of the first game but this time its even worse! Fuck bungie in the face!

Oooh bungie, why did You went to Activision? Why didnt You try a New deal with Microsoft or Sony?

bwahahahah! who are the gullible dimwits that keep buying exploitative trash like this? its hard for me to blame ppl that think this industry is for kids. most ppl in the mainstream dont have any self restraint or research skills to realize theyre being played like puppets.

Is it Bungie or Activision? I would bet Activision.

And yet so many people continue to play Destiny. What else can Bungie get away with and still keep players?

I got this game from Nvidia, played it for about an hour before dropping it forever. Don't understand what people see in this series.

Its glimmer who cares, the xp cap is a big deal, eververese is a big deal, but this not really a big deal. They had this in D1, yet no one really seem to mine. This is only a issue because of the state Destiny 2 is in.

How the once beloved have fallen.

Wonder how much, if any, of the blame can be put on Activision?

Better late than never.

It’s ok we have Horizon: Hunter’s Gathering. 😆

Sony needs to get back to making great single player games!

I'm not too sure a lot of the people who visit N4G know what Sony have said recently. They "Sony" want an increase of monetization of their user base and deepen sales on other platforms. So to mitigate the rise in hardware components cost. More expensive services, games, micro transactions and lastly more live service stuff. Who would have thought 🤷‍♂️

An expensive lesson but I think a lesson worth learning

You would have thought that the Concord disaster would have been enough.

Looks like they finally got the message.

Good for sure, but did TLOU Factions really need to die for this? It never needed to be live service, 39.99 and we'd play it forever as is.

I'll never understand why they bought Bungie in the first place (especially for that price), Sony got grifted hard.

Duh! I mean really though, how is it that us bum ass gamers figured that out before these high-paid executives?

.

i mean i'm surprised they didn't see this sooner from the reaction to almost every live service game thats come out.

Do single player campaign games including some games that have sp & multiplayer modes with co-op basically like the components in Halo & Destiny but try something new that's not a typical shooter. An action or action adventure game would be nice.

Bungie have problems internally for sure but Sony shouldn’t get a free pass here. Sony have bungled their management of them big time with their live service mandate. Did they forget Bungie’s pedigree in making single player games?

No no guys come on
15th times the charm

Bungie was such a bad investment for Sony, especially considering what they paid for it. MS pushed them to do that after getting Bethesda and Activision. One MS exec said they wanted to spend Sony out of business in 2019.

The less live services they do the better. Their single player games will ALWAYS be their bread and butter.

It was a very bad move. They way overpaid for something many of us don’t care about, live service mp. If they paid maybe 1/10th or so it wouldn’t be so bad but billions for a super risky studio. Their gunplay in games is great but that only lasts so long. They should have them make some single player games and maybe they can recoup some of that $$
