As many others already have done, I am leaving Destiny and its community. This is not a flaming post but I would like to reach out to the people behind the game via some negative points that led me to this decision.
You see, I am an avid gamer and I incorporate into my everyday life a few hours of gaming on my PS4, (mostly at night while my wife is sleeping). I 've been a gamer all my life. And the worst feeling that a gamer can experience, is the feeling of being misled. And that's what happened to me with Destiny.
At two weeks time, me and my party of friends (8 in total) had already reached level 29 and there was nothing else to do but grind the same missions, the same planets, the same bounties, just looking for that next exotic drop or Xur or SOME form of excitment through playing football at the tower. It became obvious that to enjoy the game we either had to wait and pay for the expansion, play the raid OVER AND OVER AGAIN or just go sparrow surfing. Or go into pvp which believe me, becomes tiring after a few hours. If I wanted to play a competitive multiplayer game, i would log into Battlefild or Call of duty.
And thus, the question arises. Is this the future of gaming? Where players buy a semi-game worth of two weeks of game time (I finished the campaign in 5 days). In order to play more I have to pay more? Where are the vast worlds promised in the trailers? Was it all just a marketing gimmick? An mmmo/rpg/fps where there is NO interaction between players. Just gestures and dancing? Where are the thrills of exploring the world?
It frustrating to think that this is what we have to expect from now on in gaming.
The simple fact is this, and Bungie along with the other gaming companies will do well to remember: when I pay 70 euros for a game, I expect to buy a game. Not a prequel for things to come that will cost me more. This policy will keep me away from Bungie and from companies of the same ideology.
This message would be pointless if I was just one person.
But as you already know, the crowds cannot be fooled for long.
Good luck with your enterprise.
