The end of Destiny 2 and the end of Bungie's independence. After 2024, who knows what Sony is going to do with them. We are still waiting to see what they are going to do with Housemarque and Bluepoint Games. All we do know is that the soundtrack will suck.
Sony gives the guy who at a Playstation event pointed to a PS1 game and said "why would anyone play this" a PS1 themed PS5 as a parting gift. Pretty clever.
Sony is starting to realize that they bought a turd. $3.6 billion for a company whose supposed experience in GaaS just caused them to miss their revenue projections by 45% and when community trust is at an all-time low releases the Destiny 2 starter pack. I'm sure the new Iron Banner game mode is going over well with the community...
There are now more The Last of Us remasters than The Last of Us games. Everyone defending this because it is only $10 for those who already bought it are ignoring that The Last of Us Part 2 is already playable on PS5 and that Naughty Dog is announcing this instead of their next game.

"The game is 6 years old"
How do you explain that just this year Destiny 2 had its highest player count since releasing on Steam?
The only place Destiny 2 is popular right now is N4G and that is just because Sony bought them. It is clear that most of the people making up the excuses didn't read the article or play Destiny 2. The excuse that the low player count is just because Destiny 2 is 6 years old is pathetic because just this year Destiny 2 had its highest player count since launching on Steam. Destiny 2 just had one of its best seasons yet the player count for Oct. 2023 is about 50% less than Oct. 2022, whi...

Age has nothing to do with it. Sony just paid $3.6 billion for Bungie, who's only game is at its worst point ever and that is a result of all the supposed Bungie live-service experience that Sony paid so much for. Many of the games that are beating Destiny 2 in Steam player count are as old or older than Destiny 2.
So? Do you think that there will be no music in Marathon, Destiny 2 future expansions, or any other Bungie game?
It is amusing seeing some trying to defend the firing of one of the best composers in video games who has been one of the few consistently great things in Destiny 2.
Except that Destiny 2 is a live-service game that depends on keeping to it's schedule. Seasons last 3 months each and only have enough content to keep players engaged for a few weeks. A four month content drought between the end of Season 23 and The Final Shape is not the best way to end the Darkness and Light Saga of Destiny 2, especially with how much of a disaster this year has been for the game.
In your desperate mind Sony apparently didn't close Zipper Interactive, Studio Liverpool, Bigbig Studios, and Guerilla Cambridge - ever. Certainly not right after they released Playstation Vita and PSVR games that failed to improve sales of flawed hardware. It seems to you that PSVR was so successful that it doesn't mean anything that none of Sony's remaining first party studios that made PSVR games are making PSVR2 games. For someone like you, Sony can never do anything wrong ...
Nice to see you couldn't even be bothered to listen to the podcast or even know about the SAG-AFTRA member vote a few days ago before you commented. Do you even know what voice actors currently make or how pay is decided? Do you even care that you completely missed the point of Jennifer Hale's comment from a 2011 article and why the host of the podcast brought it up today?
Of course not. You're a fanboy. You love your corporations. You cannot stand someone ...
Nice to see so many N4G members that are supporters of Bobby Kotick and attack Jennifer Hale for simply bringing up the pay disparity between the workers and the CEOs. This is what the Hollywood writers strike was about and why SAG-AFTRA is prepared to strike. Companies are looking to AI to cut costs while at the same time paying executives like Kotick over $77,000/hour.
Why is it that Nolan North and David Hayter can talk about the same thing yet Jennifer Hale gets calle...
Hopefully we'll start getting some first party games. So far there has been nothing announced for 2024 and for 2023 all we get is another Spider-man game. Under Ryan's leadership the game pipeline got upended and it will take years for it to get back to normal.
Judging by the comment section here, 90% of N4G readers don't possess the basic reading skills to understand the article but didn't let that stop them from commenting on it. A CDPR developer comments on how some members of the gaming community are using "fake criticism" to attack Starfield and N4G readers post idiotic comments like "how dare he talk about Cyberpunk and Starfield - CDPR sucks!" He is basically saying that Cyberpunk 2077 sucked at launch and anyone ...
"Shipped does not equal bought"
Neither does Starfield's 6 million players since a majority of them are playing through Gamepass.
The $30 upgrade if you own a digital copy of any Borderlands game in the collection on Xbox or digital/physical copies of Borderlands:GOTY, Borderlands: The Handsome Collection, or Borderlands 3 on PSN is a fantastic value though.
I just want to know what all these people's kids are doing on the TV connected to their PS5 that doesn't involve playing the PS5? Why can't you just buy a second TV? Why aren't your kids watching things on their phone or tablet like most kids these days?
Best thing is the comment section for the video. The video is typical Bungie marketing bs showing off their streamers with the nice touch of highlighting everything they stripped from Destiny 2 over the years.
Since you haven't been playing Destiny 2, here is the video from My Name is Byf on the final cutscene from The Witchqueen. https://www.youtube.com/wat... From Byf himself "Then unquestionable this is The Witness - the master of The Darkness." He then goes on to talk about how The Witness is The Winnower that Bungie has been talking about for years. The Season of the Deep cutscene shows that none of th...
They did that. The game is called Dying Light.
