In the case of Destiny, I was actually kinda skeptical. I wasn't as invested in the game's development as I was towards something like Halo or Mass Effect. Whether this was because I wanted to keep myself relatively in the dark about the game as to not spoil myself or because I just didn't really care is still up in the air for me. Maybe it was because Bungie didn't think that we cared to see any more ViDocs that we saw all throughout the development of their past three games.

Bungie never really sold the game for me until the beta got into my paws. Only then did I see the promise of Destiny that I could have otherwise seen beyond the veil for over a year. The gameplay was so enjoyable and I kept coming back for more. The story left me wanting more, but I simply concluded that of course Bungie would hold back a great deal of Destiny's story content. This was just a beta after all, rit? Right! I'm betting Activision kinda hoped for that to be the case for a great many people. So, with my fears stifled, I went out and pre-ordered both the white PlayStation 4 and a limited edition copy of the game. All that money on a fairly half-assed game marketed to consumers like it would be the messiah of video games.
