@Aztecross The amount of delusional people on this app is staggering. Social media was a mistake. This many idiots were never intends to find each other and assemble.
@SportsBoyTony Loving seeing all the sanders mouth breathers clutching their pearls and move goal posts this off season. Hilarious to watch them get annoyed with people who act just like them. 🤣
@luckychappy_ “How can Sony not pay attention to the inflated numbers we spent a week or more screaming to anyone who would listen to log in to save a game that we didn’t show up for months leading up to that point!?”
@shoe0nhead I don’t know. Social media as a whole has essentially allowed brain dead people with shitty ideas to congregate. These people were never supposed to reach each other. They were supposed to stay the weird family member everyone and society ignored. Now they’ve assembled.
Yesterday, 808,886 people logged into Destiny 2 despite server issues throughout much of the day, and it happened on a Tuesday without a brand-new DLC release. Focusing only on a single day's player count misses some players as well.
If hundreds of thousands of people are still showing up for an update at the very end of Destiny 2's lifecycle, that doesn't tell me the franchise is dead. It tells me there's still a massive audience that cares about Destiny.
This is a game approaching its 10th year. It's gone through content delays, layoffs, leadership changes, and plenty of turbulence along the way.
What I'm celebrating is that, after all these years, hundreds of thousands of players were still excited enough to log in, play together, and talk about Destiny. That's exactly why so many of us believe a new game would perform well.
If people are still showing up now, at the end of the current chapter, that's evidence of continued interest. Imagine how many would return for a genuine new beginning.
