Machinima Rants About Destiny Reviews (Destiny)

The difference between reviews and sales is a very important distinction. Most of the reviews they discus are very shitily done. High quality reviews are very useful to asses the inherint quality of the game separate from how much the masses like the game.

Looking only at the sales of COD or Destiny may miss the story or longevity issues that a game may have. The only way to properly get that message accross is by having those high quality reviews that understand how to properly give a well-rounded review of a game. That doesn't necessarily mean a final number score.

For example, I am still having tons of fun playing Destiny and am very glad that I bought it. But it missed out on a multitude of aspects to gaming that I really enjoy. It isn't as impressive as a game as I would have liked and reviews would reflect that.
