clowniest. take. ever.
I'm sure Jason Jones is happy about that. Don't see how that helps any of the regular employees at all or how getting purchased translates to better games.
I just don't get your point... surely anyone who wanted to could have left Bungie and got a job at 343i after Reach was done. And many did, in fact, do that... IIRC some even never left MS and worked as part of 343i from the beginning.
From Bungie themselves regarding the Sony deal: "We remain in charge of our destiny. We will continue to independently publish and creatively develop our games. We will continue to drive one, unified Bungie community. Our games will continue to be where our community is, wherever they choose to play."

Speaking of clowns...
My point was that Bungie being purchased for 3 billion dollars, as you pointed out, only has a direct financial effect on people who own equity in the company like the founder Jason Jones. For the rest of the staff, it's just another normal work day as usual.
They became divas and wanted to dictate their “visions” and thought they would continue profit off their “ better choices “.
And somehow this equates to these people "messing up"
I never said they messed up.
That was another person you quoted that said that. I was simply reacting to your response.
Bungie is the classic runaway bride. They have fear of commitment and felt they were imprisoned by Microsoft to do Halo titles forever while they wanted to do the same thing but slighly different. To their credit they did all they wanted with the franchise, but then were unable to leave it because they did such a good job. It's as if the Gear of War team was sentenced to keep churning them when they wanted to move on.
Destiny was much much more ambitious early on. They really had to cut content and rein in the ideas to get it out the door.
It's too bad Bungie and MS weren't able to work something out. Imagine how much stronger MS would have been during the Xbox One generation with Destiny being exclusive and Bungie being able to directly oversee 343i making Halo.
Too bad they signed a deal with old Bobby from Activision. Traded one corporate overload for another.
That could be possible now, but Activision was a horrible deal for "creative freedom."
Both games are fps.
Why did you only post pictures of Halo in your comparison?They are bitter as hell, theres a reason Destiny 2 is one of the top most played games on multiple platforms.
And to rag on Destiny 2’s art direction and compare it to Halos? Lol
Halo looks like something aesthetically stuck in the late 90’s early 2000’s
that means something worse happen that cause BUngie to split with Microsoft then.
So you say that Halo under MS is perfectly fine??
When people see this, they think they are looking at a Warhammer 40k game, an aesthetic from the 1980s.They are bitter as hell, theres a reason Destiny 2 is one of the top most played games on multiple platforms.
