Sony needed games and Destiny is amazing. Not only is it insanely profitable but it also has a great potential for sequels, remakes/remasters, TV shows, and movies. It's a killer IP even if you personally don't like it and """analysts""" are too stupid to see it.

Lol
Cope and dilate

oh hes cute

What a worthless post. End yourself, drone.

/qa/ lost to a bunch of trannies

They will only have overpaid if their GaaS plans that Bungie are meant to help with and whatever movies or tv shows they intend to do don't actually lead to decent returns.

Is that "Eileen"?
Imagine being a dog walker and blowing your money on a no-games console

I understand that it was a $3.6B purchase, and they probably thought it through a hundred times before doing it, but it was so well timed after the Microsoft-Blizztivision deal that I can't help but feel they were being rash and making a knee-jerk decision.

Bungie fumbled the ball hard on their GAAS implementations so far so if they're the template Sony wants to use for their future they're setting themselves up for failure

Has

hahahahahahahahahahaha

Destiny is reasonably succesful. Not CoD by a long shot, but still not a complete failure. They even recently announced 1 million preorders for the next expansion, so something they do must be working.

>Still on this discredited cope line
Back to Twitter, ESL.

Destiny will probably pay for itself over the lifetime of the product, but the main reason they did it was to keep their stock from dropping any further and erasing years of value.

yes

no

How long until Bungie starts feeling oppressed again and starts throwing a tantrum for their freedom?

It's successful in spite of their fuckups not because they did anything good or smart for the game.
The content vaulting is retarded, the transmog system is the worst I've seen in any game, the way exotics are gated behind seasonal passes, the eververse...

Not Op but death to all Yankees and Angloids

Destiny has fucked themselves into a corner with their FOMO treadmill. Each season more people drop off and the game is antagonistic to returners and downright impenetrable to newcomers. They entice people to show back up each new expansion where they promise they've learned their lesson and will wipe the slate clean, only to make the game even more of a pay to not grind FOMO piece of shit that would make Warframe blush. That and every update comes at the cost of them deleting half the game.

>Sony needed games
Ain't that the understatement of the century.

Sony made sure the contract meant that the studio leads would have an incredibly slow payout possibly spanning more than a decade. They can’t leave if they want their money.
