If D2 is any any way an improvement, I'm good. The game won't be perfect, there's going to be poo poo to deal with in the life cycle, but none of that exists now and there's going to be loads of fun between now and then. D2 is a thing to  about.Also I am retarded.

cvnvcnv posted:Surely that will draw some D1 comparisons, it not being ready or whatever, but I think the game is plenty ready, they're just staggering some big stuff as design philosophy, and some to impress people with instead of having to deal with 10000 Reddit post about how Bungo shouldn't have stuck in something that wasn't ready, or should have been better. As they said third's time the charm but after seeing that when endgame designs where communicated too late and with only partial information were horrible times in destiny's history I'm not expecting good things from this silence.

CheeseFactory posted:Over in the good old US of A, September's issue of Game Informer magazine has landed and brought with it a whole host of new details on a social space called Headquarters being introduced to Call of Duty: WW2. Apparently the area will let you not only fight to the death against a friend but also watch loot box openings and win prizes. Tonally dissonant, sure, but rather par for the course in a game where you regularly die to W33dKing_99.

I assumed they were waiting until two or three weeks out to do an advertisement blitzkrieg. Get the tie-in products on the shelves then spend a lot of money in a short amount of time for a concentrated effect. The videogame community already knows all about the game, right? Release a few more trailers, maybe a live action commercial, then let the PC demo and whatever else pull their weight. Not worried, but it will be suspect af if we aren't swimming in hype at the two week mark.

DrNutt posted:Like I'm glad after breaking free from the MS yoke they did something besides making Halo with the serial numbers filed off but like, did they play games in the meantime? Did they learn things from their experiences making Halo? How far up their own asses did they go in making Destiny I wonder? Employee reviews on Glassdoor complain that a lot of the design leads at Bungie are arrogant and shoot down suggestions while bragging about how they made Halo and don't need to listen to someone lower on the company ladder telling them how to improve things so yeah, they're just up their own asses. Reading what it's like to work at that studio pretty much confirms a lot of the speculation people have had about why things are so slow and keep going wrong. I feel sorry for the teams who dedicate so much time to crunch only to have some idiot walk in at the end and say to scrap it all and start again because it doesn't fit their vision.

There's a difference in being optimistic (which is fine, I wish I was still, that would be nice) and taking the quote "we have some good ideas but we won't be able to get them into release" from a AAA studio that last released a game that was a total unfinished clusterfuck that stumbled into being fun and think "oh yeah I totally believe them" *mashes preorder*

I respect that and feel they're trying to be better. Granted, the road to hell is paved with good intentions, but they seem earnest to (attempt to) avoid past problems  Plus I pre-ordered merely for the beta lmao I was super skeptical and my chick was staying with me the days the beta was public so I just bought the thing to get some play in. I am deeply retarded.

Yeah, just listening to anything that comes out of Luke Smith's mouth is enough to confirm that. It's too bad because Destiny is fantastic in a lot of ways but I'm really skeptical that it will be able to pull me away from PUBG at all and I'm considering cancelling my console pre-order and just sticking with the PC version of D2 at this point. RIP my PS4 character I guess.

this game is going to be more than playable and quite frankly all the pearl-clutching in this thread is hilarious will it be perfect at launch? of course not, but the idea this game is going to be bad is patently ridiculous. oh no pvp is 4v4 and strikes are 3 players this is literally unplayable. oh no i can't do private matches what the gently caress will the three people who care about destiny tournaments do???

Or, alternatively, they have moved the pvp in a decidedly more intense and "competitive" direction and also removed an extremely fun and chill way to play pvp with bros.
