Destiny is broken beyond repair. (Destiny)

Last year, Battlefield 4 was a broken piece of crap when it launched. This year, someone awarded it their 'Multiplayer of the Year' - I was shocked.

It was a pretty messed up game in lots of ways at launch. I had to play through the ENTIRE campaign numerous times, because it kept wiping my progress and unlocks, multiplayer was basically Rubber Band: The Game, and unlocks would decide whether or not they wanted to reset your loadout on a daily basis... But I still had a blast...

They released an update a month or so ago that completely overhauled the game so that now it feels like Bad Company 2 mixed with Battlefield 3. It truly is surprising how much they fixed and improved. It barely feels like the game that launched...

Funny thing is that the one thing that completely pulled me away from Battlefield was Warframe, which too had a massive evolutionary overhaul that changed the game for me. We live in an awesome time where games can evolve far more than people realize, and to me, that's the defining theme of this generation: games that can evolve. Even little touches, like Shadows of Mordor getting the Photography mode that Playstation's been developing for devs. That wasn't something expected, but it's apparently pretty easy to implement, since The Last of Us also got it...

Deal with the hand you're dealt.

The other defining theme of this console generation seems to be the entitled man-child that feels that devs owe him the game he was expecting. Entitlement has long been around, but now that people see just how much can quickly be changed, they want it changed to meet their exact specifications, and they expect it NOW NOW NOW...
