Today is Friday, which can only mean one thing: yesterday wasn't Friday and I should have gone to work today. I suppose it also means this week's Mail Sack has been posted over at Bungie.net, so kick back and relax as DeeJ and company allay concerns over Destiny's single-player offerings, privacy controls, and complete lack of guns. (Plus, our DBO Forum gets a shout-out!)
Nzgamer posted an interview with Bungie's Chris Butcher that provides a deeper look into Destiny's connected experience.
One of the things I’ve always loved about Bungie’s games is they have a super-strong sense of community. With Bungie.net starting back in 2003, nearly ten years ago, we had a network of gamers and fans who were all part of the process. They could express what they were doing and what they were feeling. So we’re ensuring we bring these community features into Destiny because before this, they were a bit separate to the game itself. We want to make it the heart of the game. Destiny will be a social community of players, all interacting with each other, experiencing things together, and this is what I’m most excited about with this game.That's one of my favorite things about Bungie's games too! (Thanks, Xenos.)
