Bungie Splits with Activision... Time for us to go home?

Solonoid · January 11, 2019, 08:28:30 AM

Only time will tell, but Bungie is now independent, and intends to publish all future Destiny content independently. Is the alienation that pushed us away ending? Probably not, but there were a great deal of apologists who swore it was Activision who forced most of the PS4 bias and abuse of the staff, community, and the lackluster game that Destiny was when it launched.

I doubt we'll be going anywhere except our separate ways in the next five years, but it will be interesting to see how Bungie changes following this split.

You think they will un-ban anyone who didn't buy Detsiny / Destiny 2?

Maybe I just phrased it poorly. What I meant to ask was - now that Bungie has full control of b.net, do you htink they will unlock the forums for people who didn't buy the games?

Are we pretending now that BUNGiE themsely weren't the ones fucking everyone over on their own accord?

No there were no issues concerning your phrasing. I told you what the issue was, yet you seem to have missed that. I swear, you sep7agonians truly are the niggers of the internet.

This.

Could very well be. Or it could be caused by some pressure spawned from fear of not financially pleasing their Activision overlords.

Jono · January 11, 2019, 07:49:05 PM

Why would you want to go back? The damage they did has already been done.

maverick · January 11, 2019, 11:04:42 PM

It’s not like bungie was a slave to activision lol. They knew they were producing a low-quality product that their previous fan base wouldn’t like, so they got rid of us.

Regardless, Activision wouldn’t be controlling the moderation on bungie’s own website.

Zonda · January 11, 2019, 11:10:19 PM

Basically all it means is destiny/Bungie shills have 1 less tool to deflect the blame from when they continue to make shit decisions and release a subpar product.

Boomdeyadah · January 12, 2019, 03:24:47 AM

Destiny 3 is going to be shit lol. All the quality talent they had left long ago.

Coomer · January 12, 2019, 05:03:26 PM

This is going to let Bungie say "we're going to do it right this time" just like with Destiny 2 but we all know it's going to be shit

Aether · January 12, 2019, 08:07:10 PM

Bunige can still fuck up without the influence of Activision. Just look at bloom in Reach.

Activision wasn't responsible for all the God awful decisions made on their site/forums. Nu-Bungie and the current moderation team are just a bunch of dipshits that have let their ego get the best of them.

I also liked bloom. A mechanic that forces you to time your shots made swat much more interesting, and I still prefer Reach swat over H3 swat.

FatherlyNick - fuck putin · January 14, 2019, 11:37:48 AM

If Bungie were themselves fucking up Destiny, why would they be happy to part with Atvi? Why would they want to split in the first place?

Anyone that likes bloom is a flamboyant retard.

Bloom was dependent on the shooter’s luck. All you had to do was spam the trigger until your target was dead and the bullet magnetism and aim assist took care of the rest.
