In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I would like to take a moment and gloat a little. I basically said that it was going to be Sci-Fi.
Anyways, I will say that I'm scared as hell for Bungie because, well, Activision is Activision. While nobody forced Bungie to sign that contract, I feel obliged to tell Bungie to watch their ass.
I WANT to believe that the studio won't be worked to the bone and that what comes out won't be beaten to death like CoD or Halo. But I'm also incredibly excited to see that they retain all rights to Destiny. After seeing them lose Myth and Oni to Take 2 Interactive and Halo to Microsoft, I hope that they now have the liberty to preserve their universe's integrity.
As for the IP itself, I'm hoping that the term MMO is extremely broad for the purposes of legal documents. I am so sick of WoW and, the now failing, SWTOR. I am sick of a bunch of cloned MMOs and I am dying for something different.
FPSMMO in space? Sign me the -blam!- up. I just hope that they can pull it off and that they don't treat their customers like -blam!-. *cough*Activision-Blizzard*cough* *cough*error37*cough*
You have a lot of good points as usual.
Activision seems to be pulling a lot of bs over Bungie. They are making Microsoft seem like angels.
The thing about Microsoft from what I have noticed, they just let Bungie pretty much do what they wanted (as long as it was Halo) and gave Bungie the time to do it right.
It sucks Bungi lost Oni, Myth, and Halo.
I am still confused about this Marathon game. I just never saw that coming in a million years.
Destiny sounds interesting but I doubt it will be an MMO.
If it was an MMO, there probably wuldn't be THAT many games coming out that fast. MMOs are supposed to keep you playing that game for years, not get ready to play an upcoming sequel. Notice how we don't have wow 5 out.
I have a feeling Destiny will combine many RPG/MMO elements like they first tried to do with halo but ultimately abandoned.
I am not freaking out about this yet. This looks discouraging now but Bungi has yet to explain anything. Though this scedule should NEVER of been seen by the public and screwed Bungie over big time.
