PR vs What people really think (Destiny)

But I get your point. Journalists/hacks claim to love it but the average gamer isn't impressed (based on your hand-picked examples). That might mean something if the average gamer had actually played the game and not just watched a video. It might also matter more to me if so many gamers weren't COD bros.


The funny thing is if you go back and look at the Titanfall videos a LOT of the comments are "So it's COD with mechs, so what?" Sounds pretty similar to the detractors for Destiny videos :)

I'm right there with you. In relation to Titanfall, personally having sunk in significant time and developed a modicum of skill, statements like that are at the HEIGHT of ignorance. I'm confident Destiny will, in retrospect, make similar comments equally hilarious.

And if the "average gamer" is such a sniveling, cynical beast, they haven't been paying attention.
