I have withheld speculation on the new title as to genre, type, gameplay, etc.
I will say this. If Bungie is making something new, something really really new that has never been done before and it is as enticing, as enthralling, as immersive and as enjoyable as their past projects have been.... then if I have to pay a subscription to stay in that universe, I will have to evaluate my potential enjoyment of that universe against the fee (just like any other commercial transaction that I make).
I don't tend to make/take ideological stands when it comes to something as insignificant as entertainment. Calm down, but as enjoyable as the time is, as fun as it can be, as much time as I spend on it, it is still just entertainment and is less of a priority than actual necessities in life.To be fair, i'm sure that the game will be very good, really I do. But I'm sure that going in the direction of pay to play multiplayer (especially on the Xbox 360 as it already has it's own subscription based multiplayer) will make the multiplayer a lot less enjoyable, with the thought of your bank account being drained in the back of your mind. Now I'm sure what your trying to say is that Pay to play games are bad like i'm trying to say, but if Activision forces you to do this, then I think a similar thing to microsoft will happen (i.e. bungie saying Screw you guy's, I'm going home) and splitting away from activision
