That $3.6 billion wasn't just for a single game, looks like Sony wants to turn Destiny into a multimedia juggernaut franchise.

They're really gonna spend billions pumping up Destiny to compete with Star Wars aren't they?

This is no surprise at all. Bungie has been wanting to go multimedia for a while now. That's why Luke Smith got promoted to being head of the entire Destiny franchise instead of just the head of the game. It's been in the works for a while.

If Sony wants to compete with The Mandalorian, they had better make a show centered around Cayde-6. He deserves it.
Benjamin Clark
why don't they just buy out kojima?
Kevin Moore
So thats why, actually makes sense now.

Can I posting?
Michael Roberts
No kidding. That's the only kind of software on Playstation.
Aaron Taylor
Honestly Kojima does fit right in with the sony brand. He's probably one of few japs that would do it.
Jayden Diaz
Isn't he already partnered with Sony?
Aiden Cooper
You can't make this shit up. Makes me chuckle.

Doesn't Bungie still own the Marathon IP?
Leo Price
Marathon and Pathways into Darkness would unironically be good choices for media other than games but they are worthless IPs compared to Destiny so they're definitely not going to do anything with them after spending 4 billion on them.

>compete with Mandalorian
You know what, you're right, he does deserve it.
Jackson Johnson
not with that attitude

The game's story is also fairly standard fare, a mixture of classic sci-fi tropes that we've seen time and again in films like Alien or The Terminator (the latter was even referenced during the opening sequence) as well as more modern ideas such as those found within movies like Avatar and District 9.
It starts out quite nicely with some interesting twists around its main character, Commander John Marston who you play throughout the entire campaign; it then falls flat when he gets his hands back on an assault rifle at the start of the third act which allows him to become somewhat overpowered due to having two guns instead
Josiah Ramirez
The Destiny lore is actually interesting and could make for a good TV show in the right hands. But it's Sony so lel
