Destiny is a very high-budget and high-risk title for Activision title due mostly to its dependence on being online. Thankfully, it seems there are no plans to hedge their bets by nickel and diming players who wish to “pay to win”.
Two other key features of the game that have been reported on are interplanetary travel and the ability to customize your spaceship. This has lead many to wonder exactly how involved this mechanic would be. Osborne goes on to say:
So it would seem the customization is more of a cosmetic thing… at least in the initial release of the game.
Lastly, the question I’ve been dying to know was addressed–what about a PC version of the game?
Which, in developer talk, means there will likely be a PC version a year or so down the pipeline by a third-party studio… similar to how Gearbox ported the original Halo to PC.
So is anyone here planning on participating in the massive beta? Should Activision be worried about launching a massive online game after disasterous launches like Sim City and GTA Online? We’re destined to find out when the game launches next year.
