The changing of endings based on fan reaction is as old as stories themselves. Even literature greats like Charles Dickens changed the ending of books because of fan outrage. It has happened countless times in all different forms and shapes and sizes. Sometimes those changes are bad sometimes they are good. Its just the nature of telling stories for the masses.
Charles Dickens changed the ending of one of his books?
yes Great Expectations was originally released in pieces in a newspaper. When it ended on a down note people got upset. So a more upbeat ending was written.
This episode reminds me of why I can’t stand the gamer community. All they do is bitch and whine about everything like spoiled children yet still pay and play the games they are complaining about.
Sorry about that. Notice I was oddly silent lol. I have nothing to contribute on the fact of Destiny or the others mentioned. My small complaints with Diablo III were fixed when I got the expansion this weekend. The one time in Diablo history I feel like I don’t hate the add-on.
It is not an nag on you. Its more of an issue with that entire culture.
Ahh that I can see. However that goes for many fandoms. We watch what we hate because we like the franchise but despise a film. EX: Transformers.
I would say though that all the complaints about Destiny were 100% on point though. Just giving the truth from where I’m sitting.
I don’t doubt that. I simply don’t understand why people even play video games when all people do is complain 80% of the time about it. If something caused me that much strife I’d stop doing it.
If they don’t call the next Star Trek movie Star Trek: The Search for Future Spock they would be making a horrible mistake.
They could call it,
(mind you these are far fetched plays on things that pertain to Kirk)
Star Trek The Search for Kirk
Star Trek We Work For Kirk
Star Trek and The Captain of the Enterprise
Star Trek Age of Dissolution
Star Trek Nexus
Star Trek Nexus Maximus (bad TF joke)
Didn’t they explain why they are calling it Windows 10 not 9. Something about of a lot of old cold related to windows 95 and 98. Don’t know why they have to go to 10. I agree it would make more sense to just call it something else. It is the same issue I have with Apple calling it the iPhone 6. Its like the 80th iPhone.
Yeah I read something about that AFTER we recorded. But does make sense because of the 9x issue.
