Before diving in, I wanted to express my appreciation for the support received on my previous discussion. This subject really matters to me. In 2014, on my birthday, I managed to save up and purchased an Xbox One. My friends encouraged me to get one, so we all joined in. The game I initially got was Destiny, which aligned with my interest in Halo 2 and 3, putting me right into the excitement. Over time, I found myself spending more hours playing than necessary, often neglecting family time. Every Tuesday after school, I’d prioritize completing assignments over hanging out. My days became dominated by raids and other activities, around two hours each. That’s when things took a turn. The first expansion launched, and we immediately jumped into the raid—within about three hours, I had lost touch with my old friends. They avoided me because I hadn’t engaged in other activities before. I turned to LFG forums hoping for help with the tough raid, spending even more time playing. Eventually, during a holiday break, I played for ten hours straight. It became clear then that something was wrong. I realized Destiny wasn’t just a game to me—it was a source of frustration and loneliness. Through new connections, I rediscovered other titles like Witcher 3, GTA V, and BioShock. I’m really thankful I switched to PC and stopped getting stuck in repetitive grind mode. If you’re thinking about buying Destiny, maybe reconsider—it can damage relationships and feels quite dull. Thanks for your understanding, and have a great day!

He adores Destiny, but he won’t say it’s just an average copy of so many titles.

It took me a while to discover this. I assumed it was "original," even though I trusted false information.

It's similar to warning against playing 'X' multilayer online games, saying it can ruin you. It's not about the game itself, but about self-control and discipline. Focus on what matters more and carefully weigh the cost. Still, destiny seems appealing, but the dedication is too great.
