That one wasn't terrible... (Destiny)
...but it wasn't great. I didn't need his opinions at the end throwing in all Destiny fans into an angry mob. And we apparently read Deej's tone very differently.
As it stands, I don't think Luke handled the interview perfectly, but I also think the interview was presented terribly.
I'm not in love with the Taken King package options; it's also nothing different than what games have been doing for a decade.
I'd love a compromise, but I don't think an uninformed, click-bait-journalism-fueled pitchfork mob is the way to make it happen, especially when the collector's edition is already sold out.
I think the biggest problem is how open Bungie is. The more open they are, like creating a weekly update to try and keep everyone in the loop, the more people want, the more entitled they feel, the more they complain. There's great feedback in that, but there's also a lot of overwhelming, distracting noise. I don't know.
