IGN slams Destiny and TDB
http://m.ign.com/articles/2014/12/18/destiny-the-dark-below-review
Hear that Deej, Bungie... That silence is the sound of shrinking market share. I can only assume investors are already jumping ship. If that happens, or is happening, what happens to that $500 mil budget dedicated to the Destiny franchise.
I guess the angry voices do indeed outweigh the fandoys you were hoping could save a sinking ship.
Edit: So I've sat back after posting this to watch the waters churn. I'm impressed with the feedback, but I'm not shocked this thread got a lot of attention, positive or negative. People can bash me, the article, or the game as much as they like...point is, I didn't post it to start an argument! I posted it more or less as PSA...in the hopes the attention this thread MIGHT receive gains the attention of someone we've ALL been longing to hear from. Keep the chatter"white" coming y'all.

For those slamming IGN it doesn't really matter.. TDB has gotten lukewarm to seething reviews from major gaming sites to personal blogs (although almost all of them praise the raid): [b]The best of times, the worst of times.[/b] http://www.gamespot.com/reviews/destiny-the-dark-below-review/1900-6415992/ [b]The Dark Below makes Destiny's mistakes all over again[/b] http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-12-10-the-dark-below-makes-destinys-mistakes-all-over-again [b]‘Destiny: The Dark Below’ Review Roundup: Thin On Content[/b] (Short comments by other reviews and links to the full reviews) http://gamerant.com/destiny-the-dark-below-reviews/ [b]Destiny's Dark Below expansion punishes the game's most important players[/b] http://www.polygon.com/2014/12/15/7393695/destiny-dark-below-punishing-hardcore [b]DESTINY: THE DARK BELOW REVIEW: NO LIGHT ABOVE[/b] [i]" Dark Below is the perfect expansion for Destiny — it's just as grandiose and ultimately shallow as the main game."[/i] http://www.polygon.com/2014/12/12/7384909/destiny-the-dark-below-review-no-light-above [b]The dank between[/b] http://www.destructoid.com/review-destiny-the-dark-below-284869.phtml This goes on and on.. So yea slam IGN if you want, but all the reviews pretty much say the same thing. Despite its flaws, Destiny still has things to offere and I'm still finding ways to have fun. Crucible/IB is always fun when played with your friends, and I haven't tired of the raid yet. But while they've gotten some right 'right', there's no denying Bungie has fallen short in many areas.
