    Oh, so you've played the PC version of Destiny 2 from start to finish and have experienced everything it has to offer? Surely you have, otherwise you wouldn't be making such claims, right? Right?

    Money. Anything else we need to cover? I don't think so.

    I'm pretty unfamiliar with the first Destiny. Does it have a subscription fee? if not, then I'll likely give this one a try eventually (not crazy enough to go there "early access" or fresh launch, I bet there'll be a billion bugs and inbalance issues at launch). If it does have a sub, then meh, pass.

    To be fair...

    So they couldn't justify the investment for dedicated servers, even though D1 made plenty of $$$ and D2 will likely rake in plenty as well, and every other game in the Blizzard/Battle.net launcher has dedicated servers?

    Yeah, sounds like a quality game already. P2P networking hasn't been a massive issue with other games like For Honor at all.

    While I can't argue the fact that it's absolutely retarded that they don't have dedicated servers for PvP in this day and age..........no dedicated servers =/= bad game. Especially when PvE is such a huge part of Destiny (and that's what the vast majority of its playerbase does most of the time) and generally doesn't have any issues in this regard.

    I see what you're trying to do here though. But you're gonna have to do better than that for it to stick.

    I actually haven't played D1. I was just looking forward to D2 (I'm primarily a PC gamer). Researching Destiny's P2P implementation reveals a lot of videos that look scarily similar to my experience with For Honor. It's just disappointing is all. From what I've read it seems like a lot of the changes for D2 are mainly about slowing the action down to help compensate for the P2P issues (also not a good sign).

    I was excited to try D2 out but the P2P news has certainly tempered that excitement. I'm also not sure why there isn't better matchmaking or cross-platform play (at least for PvE).

    Destiny 1 was console only and didn't require subscription to play on single player mode. Although to play and group up with friends for dungeons/raids u needed to have PSN or Xbox Live subscription. Idk how they'll handle it being a PC port, most likely the same way Overwatch is... just a 1 time fee with micro transactions in-game for cosmetics

    After watching a few videos on Destiny 2 - after having played D1 for a while, especially after it got revamped and better via Expacs - I'm probably out.
    It looks the same, "feels" the same, sounds teh same - even dungeons are the same. It should have been a DLC I guess, but marketing wise it's a good move. A lot of app users will at least try it out and that's what they'd want.

    Now the P2P move is cheap, ofc. But seeing how D1 is usually just single player PvE with some minor grouping (when doing strikes, pvp or later mini "raids"), it should be okay-ish. Still a cheap move, but hey.

    First of all IT IS NOT YOUR LAUNCHER. It is Blizzard's Launcher. They will and can put anything on it. You are complaining about 1 game. Let me up you one.

    I dont play, HoTs, HS, SC, Diablo or OW. However I never went into a forum whether official or unofficial and complain about I see games on THEIR Launcher that I have no Effing interest to play.

    "Oh they better not have a cross promotion." So what if they did, it is not a big effing deal.

    Lastly, it is a smart move on Activision to put their game only on Blizzard's App, they are not sharing profits with other online stores.

    If this is not a move to inherently, and eventually, turn Battle.net (Which is called the 'Blizzard App') into Activision's choice or go-to for any future release I would be partially surprised. Honestly, the Blizzard App is an alright client and definitely a conduit for any kind of game because of it. To be quite honest, it was either this or a Steam release -- and I think Activision is MORE than happy to allow Blizzard to host the front end of re-directing things for Destiny 2.

    Small minds always enjoy making others feel smaller.

    By the way, that was a joke. With truth in it. It's called satire, or sarcasm, or mature humor, or something, I don't know the term. The joke was referring to success, because if you get to a point in your life where you can fuck 1000$/night hookers every night, or buy lambos, or travel the world every week and stay in the most expensive hotels, it means you've achieved financial success on a higher level than most, except mentioning hookers made it funny because no one aims to reach that kind of financial success just to fuck hookers...it's just something you can afford, because that's how obscenely rich you become.
    Bla bla bla...

    The highlighted part is enough. And I really have already wasted too much time on this crap.

    Why are you adding a non-Blizzard game to Blizzard's platform?
    Answer because Activision made us

    Don't you be expecting anything from the current Legion community you will end up dissapointed why play the best MMOFPS shooter to ever hit the market when you can just grind the endless AP and raid in hopes of titanforges and more useless legendaries.

    On a more serious note can't wait to see the Destiny 1 hate bandwagon cry about this topic

    I HATE that idea.

    I don't want Bnet (which isn't called Bnet anymore by the way, Blizz just changed the name because of some stupid reason and yet they keep caling it bnet....) to be turned into the Origine or Uplay of Activision.

    I don't want activision to use the Blizzard reputation to sell their games.

    And from what I've read Destiny 2 won't even have dedicated servers, so why the FUCK should it be on Bnet?

    What the hell blizz ?

    Great news. That is all the proof of quality I need.
    However, I'm confused by all the people who seem upset about one more game in the Bnet list that they can ignore.
    I miss the time when people had their own free will. Oh Well
