In this interview with Bungie CEO Harold Ryan he gets asked some tough questions regarding the monotonous game-design of the title and the jigsaw-puzzle of a story. Ryan counters the questions by refering to the loot-cave as proof that some people actually enjoy doing the same thing over and over again. Bonus: He promises better storytelling and better mission-design for the DLC (the interview was recorded before its release). Something we now know to be lipservice.
Activision Blizzard ordered to pay $23.4M for patent infringement involving popular games.
I would read the article but the giant pop-ups from the top and bottom of the screen made me close it.
Without reading $23.4 million isn't a deterrent for a company that size.
Boss: Let's fire a few people to recoup on that loss.
Slave: Cortana has decided to get rid of Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks.
Boss: Let's get those Firing Letters "Copilot Approved" and send them through the power of the cloud.
Slave: Long Live Phil !!!
ALL in the room: LONG LIVE PHIL !!!!
Well another troll company with a patent trying to extort money out of companies. Seems like they’re going to try and sue everyone.
Bungie - "Join our development team to see the new updates arriving with Destiny 2: The Final Shape. Releasing on June 4, 2024."
Amid ongoing anxiety within Bungie following layoffs last year, the studio is now preparing for another shakeup, this time on Marathon.
Talk about mismanaged Bungie is a studio of tremendous potential and have made some of the greatest shooters to date. Sony pushed them to just make another Destiny style game and consult on other studios live service games and are now getting thrown under a bus as the pivot away from predominantly gaas games is unfolding.
I'd love to see a world where Bungie can focus on telling great sci fi stories again away from a live service dungeon but we all know that's a pipe dream
This studio has had three owners and its never worked well with any of them....Management has issues
lol... The journalist is really pushing him in a corner with his question. He has no chance but avoiding the questions with telling other stuff. All I hear is blablabla :D total failure...
They do the same thing because they want to level up faster. And why want they do that? Because there is probably nothing else to do then leveling up a digital weapon :D
Things like this and the fact they have a 10 year deal with Activision means I may not buy another Bungie game at this rate. Bought every game since Halo CE but after mediocre Destiny and the fact the sequel has already being confirmed I'm about to abandon ship.
Actually the missions in the dlc are really fun and more in depth than the vanilla missions. I wish they had done this with the regular game. Not bashing the game because I still play and enjoy it even got to level 31 this morning just making an observation.
My good friend is a Halo fanatic and I swear I could almost hear his expectations being crushed when we first fired up Destiny. About 3 hours in we stopped. And I don't think he ever went back.
Is he wrong?
Everyone says the game is so boring, but millions of people are playing the game daily.
Either the game isn't boring or the game is boring and people like it.
So, haters.... which is it?
