: I've made a bit of a name for myself lately on DBO for being argumentative
: and a bit of a downer about the game, and I'll be the first to admit that
: I flew off the handle and went overboard a couple times, but I feel very
: strongly about my passions. One of those passions is video games, and
: Destiny really let me down.

: I won't re-iterate my opinions about that game here; they're off-topic for
: this venue and they've been posted enough times on DBO already. However, I
: will say that I'm still very excited for Halo 5, the Master Chief
: Collection, Nightfall, and whatever else 343i has up its sleeve.
: Personally, I enjoyed Halo 4 immensely, and while it was not without its
: numerous glaring flaws, it was a more satisfying and complete experience
: than Destiny in my opinion. That bodes well for the future, and since 343i
: seems to have genuinely learned from (most of) its mistakes on Halo 4,
: this is a hopeful time for me.

: So I'd like to formally introduce myself to the HBO community and ask why I
: can't descramble your channel like I used to in the '90s.

: (Evidently, I'd registered here at some point in the past, but I don't
: remember doing that, and I also forgot how to log in for a while there.
: This forum is, to put it mildly, difficult to navigate.

: But I'm here now, so hello to those of you who don't know me, and to those of
: you who DO know me... I almost titled this thread "Why I'm
: staying", but I thought better of it.)

Welcome.

As you feel about Halo 4 is how many people feel about Destiny.

This is a good community. Smaller and quieter than it used to be, but we'll see how things go this Fall and next year.

I would encourage you to not give up on Destiny yet- find some like minded people to play with and I bet you'll have fun.

Either way, you'll see lots of familiar names here :)
