Gave my disc away today (Destiny)

I gave it to Ruth, who's too poor and studenty to buy her own copy. Although I have just heard that without the DLC you're locked out of some playlists so we'll see how she fares. I might be buying her the DLC for Christmas.

For me, and I'm not looking to shame anyone with a different opinion before Kermit and Mig jump to defend fair Bungie, I was so disappointed with the game that the price tag alone associated with TTK was too big a barrier. I find the response to the DLC really interesting. It is, as you said, very positive.

I thought it was interesting also that you said TTK was a move to the experiential - I would have described Destiny as all experience and perception, the experience of shooting people and moving between beautiful vistas was always there. It was the meat beneath that I really struggled to engage with.

I'm right there with you, I deleted my digital copy a while back and will wait on the Taken King to come in line with my projected pricing despite it's glowing reviews. Despite that, I still enjoy reading the posts here as other people's written out passion can be fun to experience.
