Preferred Reading
Destiny is a first person shooter game (FPS) that was released in September 9 2014.
Destiny would appeal to the explorer as it meets their need to try out new things in media, the reason for this is because it completely differentiates from all FPS games as the type of guns you can obtain and the use of them. The encoders achieved to make a completely new game, a game that had never been made before which is why it makes it so brilliant.They made a FPS game that is never ending in story and in multiplayer.

Ideologies that may be encoded in the game may be that , the encoders may have an idea of what the future is to come and all the advanced technology comes into our planet and how we react when extra-terrestrial life forms invade our planet. Also an ideology may be that us as a human race discover how to travel through space to land on completely different planets to gather materials and find out is there is such thing as 'aliens'. Destiny presents darkness enclosing on the earth and only people who contain the light can fight it off, ideologies of this could be that world is becoming a darker place with murder and terrorism constantly happening and only the good people in the world can prevent this. Also Destiny is only a online game therefore other players around the world are in contact with you, the ideology of this is that we have to come together as people to form an alliance to fight off the bad in the world and to enjoy media together rather than alone.

The text (Destiny) celebrates unity as it shows in the game some things cannot be accomplished without the help of others.

Destiny's underlying message is rather obvious to be honest as it is said in the title 'Destiny', the meaning for destiny is, the hidden power to control future events. In relation to this the game clearly portrays aspects of a future.

It tells us about life , that maybe extra-terrestrial is dangerous and is plotting to make this devastating attack on the human race, but there is not just one type...

Oppositional Reading
Some people may completely disagree with some of the ideologies that may be incorporated in the game. Such as they understand the way the game creators portrays their view point of how we may react to an alien invasion but they would disagree as they would believe that aliens may not exist and an invasion would never happen that dramatic.

Furthermore some people may completely disagree with the fact that some games should require social interaction, in Destiny's case raiding cannot be performed by one person, they would prefer to play alone to achieve their own goals without assistance of others. This can relate back to their cultural experiences as they may have been very anti-social whilst growing up so they try not to interact with people even on media.

Negotiated Reading
Some people may agree with the fact that some games require interaction with others (multiplayer) but they personally do not like to communicate with others on games/media. Furthermore, players of Destiny will agree that violence is needed to overcome the enemy but their personal opinion may be that they are completely against all forms of violence in the real in world.
