"I wish I had jumped in Day 1 for PS+. I didn't see the value. "
Why? Early Plus wasn't that great of a deal and it wasn't until at least a year that it started to improve.

"There will inevitably be bounties that require that third subclass."
Unlikely.
"Technically there already is in the one Eris one that requires kills via Arc or Solar abilities (the only reason for the "or" was so all three classes can finish the bounty as all three have either a Solar or Arc sub-class). Most likely bounties will be introduced without the "or" (much like Thorn requiring "Voi...
"Voice chat i think needs be added for rank battle.. "
When I played ranked battles in the review copy, I can honestly say we didn't need voice chat. All the action happens at a specific spot(s), so you can either go around wasting time or go where all the action is. Plus, even if you're not working towards the objective, even if you're just trying to kill people you're most likely also helping your team win or at least making the field less advantag...
"You already let them slide for 2 years it's too late now to start reporting every little issue you'll just look hypocritical at this point. "
Thats not even what is happening here. What is happening is news outlets are either not researching or jumping on anything that can be used to get hits, regardless of what is and is not true. Like some season passes automatically unlock the DLC, but MKX is not one of them and you need to download it from the store. Li...
"within an hour."
Perhaps in theory, but it's almost literally impossible. To pull it off within an hour you would have to unlock the strike, beat the nightfall, swap to your other characters and get the exact drop you want every time. Even if you don't mean within an hour of launch it isn't going to happen.
Anyway, I don't see why anyone thinks this is news. All you need is to beat Urrox 3 times and have an exotic, 32 - 35 once or ...
"How do articles like this get approved?"
N4G is set up in a way where things get blindly approved and reports are usually more hassle than they're worth. Since you need to approve 5 articles for every 4 you submit or something like that, you can't submit duplicate news articles and a lot of the people submitting simply don't care, you have people blindly approve whatever and then it gets approved. Plus a lot of sites have multiple people associated with...
"The same should apply to every game that updates/patches issues that effected a review score."
I know I will get a bunch of disagrees, but I never understood why people want this or think people should do it.
You only get one chance to make a first impression and even if every outlet rereviews a game like Destiny, I doubt that will change peoples impression of the game. It also projects the idea that it's okay to release broken/shoddy products...
"They been on 0.0% for really, really long time."
1) Thats not true.
2) The game released on November 4, the first person got the lost on November 9, and the first person to obtain The Mind and Issac's Heart was also on November 9th. According to PSNProfiles around 50 people had completed either task 9 days later. Both trophies also hold a 2% obtain ratio on PSNProfiles.
3) Perhaps the most telling thing about those trophies is that roughly 50% o...
Is it really that hard to actually look into what you're talking about?
"Moving on, Resogun’s ultimate trophy... titled Masterful Dodger of Revenge Bullets and Stuff Alike trophy... beat the game in Master difficulty."
Masterful dodger of revenge bullets and stuff alike
Complete a level on Master difficulty
and even then the 1CC trophy has a lower obtain rate according to the PSN.
Anyway, it might jus...
Maybe its me, but I despise these articles that access value from what they've read. I mean, who would read a review based off the writers perception of various other reviews or what they heard in passing?
Thats nothing against the author, the site, or the amiibos, but the real test will be what the missions are. Like if they're 30+ missions where you shoot targets, can finish in 20 seconds, are going from point A to B asap, the same missions just with different chara...
"I've never seen a games review scores affected by hype. Watchdogs and Destiny are perfect examples"
Like I mentioned in my other post, I would say hype negatively impacted both. A lot of people were expecting much better games than we got, which in turn probably lead to a harsher review/score than another title that wasn't as hype would have got. Though mind you, this is all fairly theoretical.
The point being, hype is neutral and CAN have...
"If the games good the hype shouldn't affect it. "
It doesn't work that way I'm afraid. Hype ultimately affects your expectations, which affects how good or bad a game is perceived. You can see a bit of this with Destiny and a lot of other games that had a lot of praise/hype, then were widely panned/disliked.
"Also since one of the staff of vgrhq basically admitted downgrading because of hype it puts into question any scores handed...
"Gamer entitlement really knows no limits around here."
Eh, I don't see whats so wrong with the comments. Not only were we promised the PS+ version at launch, it got delayed at least 7 months and has went on sale a number of times. Like if you can find it at GameStop it will only run you $20 ( http://www.gamestop.com/ps4... ) and you can always try to price match with Target, Best ...

"you would still get your moneys worth 10x over... If you cant see the truth in what I am saying"
But there is NO TRUTH in what you're saying. You're just giving your perspective and throwing out conjecture. Like you might get "your moneys worth 10x over," but that doesn't mean everyone else does or every game is the same. I am not going to ramble on about the semantics of this, but the gist is that there ARE pe...
Maybe literally, since the action of buying an online only game is the same, but it has lower perceived value.
The issue with online only games is that there are a lot of external factors that can impact the games value. Less people are playing, internet goes out, internet is slow, eventually the servers will be turned off and your game is now worthless, etc.
Now you can argue that you never lose internet or that your internet is always fast enough to maint...
Tell me about it. I got the puzzle, pouch, messenger bag, cards, three poster sets and 6 digital games, but if I had waited I could have saved roughly 1,000 coins.

"My point was: There was always something to do because there was always something new to level up."
I think my statement and point flew over your head.
I'm not talking about something to do, but a reason to do something. The main difference being the difference between obtaining a legendary or better item from marks, a package, raid, nightfall, Xur is so lopsided that it quite frankly doesn't make sense to spe...
"The reasons why players have left is content."
There is a LOT to be said about unrewarding gameplay. Like I played Destiny SUPER hardcore the first week (probably close to 100 hours) just so I could do the raid at midnight and I was BARELY level 28 with 0 legendary weapons. After playing Destiny for quite a while after that, I am willing to bet that you'll probably NOT get better gear from engrams playing for 200 or even 300 hours than you would via faction pac...
While I don't understand your question, I can tell you across the board it is pretty simple.
Level advantage? Destiny scales you down.
Hitting level XYZ? If it's anything like the current game, then getting to level whatever is pretty easy. All you need to do is play the game enough to get vender gear (about an hour a day after hitting level 20 [takes like 6 hours] for about two weeks), level it and use materials to max it. Even without playing super hardcore ...
"For exactly what I'm going to miss out on if this deal does come to NA, "
I'll never grasp this logic. So, you're basically saying you wished you thought ahead and paid more for Plus so you could earn a loyalty reward, even though the prize is still hypothetical and could potentially cost you more money in the long run? Yeah, hard to not see the value in this.
