Subject: DESTINY!!!!!!!

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

I'm ignoring what IGN said about it because info attached to a leak is usually inaccurate in the long run.

I'm interested though, awaiting info.

I have my money on a reveal trailer at the VGAs.


Pretty much this.

I'm so stoked, though. A new universe sounds amazing, and I hope it's either as inspired as or even more inspired than the CE-3 Halo universe (the Halo universe is currently turning to mush under 343, which is why I say CE-3).
Not ODST or Reach then?

I'm looking forward to seeing what they have in store. Very Star Wars, but that seems to be what they're going for. Hoping to see something a little more original when the time comes for the proper reveal.


I was speaking more about eras than anything. To me, up to Reach still falls into the CE-3 era. Fictionally. Halo 4 is when the universe starts to do absurd flips over itself.

I like the new pic, but part of me wishes this had been done on Bungie's timtable.

I don't get it, either. Especially considering all the uproar over the way Reach 'destroyed' established cannon.

Havent logged on since the beginning of halo 3 days. Feels good to be back. Super excited about Destiny. The concept art looks pretty sick.

  • 11.28.2012 12:40 PM PDT

Wow look at how one reply towards the beginning of the thread totally reshaped it.

We can't judge a game with just a few concept art pictures. The "less mature" -blam!- could mean anything. I know when you see less "mature" you see little kids or the equivalent but there are a lot of ways you could take this.

When it comes down to it though we shouldn't judge the game until it's in our console and we're playing it.

On another note I am excited for a Destiny forum and hopefully seeing Halo's impact diminish and the fanbase migrate completely to 343.

Congrats Bungie I only log onto bungienet when something really serious happens, that is some of the best art I've seen in a long time. The spacecraft over earth is beautiful looking. I can't wait to hear Marty's score for this game!! Love you guys!!

You even have the old Halo 2 logo, hah awesome

  • 11.28.2012 2:50 PM PDT

absolutely can't wait.

  • 11.28.2012 2:57 PM PDT

From what is released of the story I hope it has very dark themes to it. Like maybe feeling like this is a final stand and you really have to fight your hardest or millions of years of evolution goes extinct.

I like the artstyle. It helps those kind of dark tones to it.

From the few bits and pieces that they have said here and there over the past year.

I am assuming that the game will be a Lost Planet(shooter) meets Borderlands(RPG Shooter) meets Wow(MMO...

I know they are making the game appealing to everyone, which deters some people but I trust bungie to cater to every audience like they have in the past. Also I don't think they have said anything about making it kid friendly lol

  • 11.28.2012 4:45 PM PDT

This makes me very excited, I just hope that the talk of making Destiny accessable to wide audience means that it will appeal to a wide adult audience rather than sanitized for kids which would conflict with the rather dark premise i.e. defending Earth's last city IMO.

  • 11.28.2012 4:55 PM PDT

It's my destiny to play this game!! lol

Well, IMO it was Halo that got more mature as the series progressed. Halo kinda "outgrew" Bungie, you know. It became something that would have sometimes dragged on them.

The concept art Bungie released made me feel enchanted, like a little kid peering into a the other side of the looking-glass. The art style definitely brought up Marathon-esque feelings in me. Compared to Halo's rigid lines, this somehow brings freshness - a new "flow", so to speak.

Moreover, this picture shows several characters manning a tank unit, suggesting a community or faction. I like that. I want to belong to a group rather than be Master Chief and the last of his kind.

Um, yeah. Continue with your speculation.

Play. Forge. Film.

The picture looks like Halo, Star Wars and Fallout had a baby and I LOVE IT!!

Master chief comes in at the end of destiny from a slipspace portal and saves the day.


Yes, because by the end of Halo 6 he will have developed time travel and randomly decides to save humanity's a$$ once again 200 years into the future.

Halo can be described in 3 words. Ancient. Mysterious. Epic!

I am very excited for this new game, I almost exploded when I heard that some stuff had been leaked!

They say they want to appeal to a younger audience, but then say they want to create a universe as rich as Star Wars.

Doesn't seem like the two go hand in hand. Guess I'll wait and find out.

Me too... Though IGN said they made it to be less mature than Halo and more accessible to kids. That sort of puts me off.
