Getting what we paid for.

Fair warning to all the people complaining about cut content, this isn't going where you think it is. First, I want you to look at your Destiny play time. Go ahead, I'll wait. No really, go. Done? Great. Now I want you to think about that number compared to any other FPS or Action Adventure game you've ever played. This game already has WAY more content than most like it and some of that content is being added for free later (Raids). The problem here is that everyone wants to see this game as the next Halo or CoD where you buy the game and then maybe some new maps later. This game is a moving experience. It's on a schedule. If you've played MMO's before you're probably already settled in. For some content pieces I understand your discontent, Queens Wrath is a little lackluster. However, the game has only been out for 3 weeks. If you picked apart MMO's that quick you'd be hailed as an idiot. As it stands, this game isn't exactly an MMO, but has many of its features. It is a game designed for grinding, and that's not for everyone. Above all, this game is NOT Halo and can't be treated as such.

  • You do realize we play the same content over and over again? Even though the Queen's bounties offer no new area to roam in. It is just bounties for the same missions. Lets say it took you 12 hours to do the story. You now play the same 12 hours over and over again. It is the same content just a different bounty or reward in the end. MMOs like WoW have thousands of areas to explore from level 1-80. You can do raids which are huge and usually 1-5 raids to begin each expansion. The instances are plenty. You literally play the story missions over and over and over in Destiny. I would not be surprised if they took VoG and branched in another area through the maze or something. Honestly, would not surprise me so they do not have to create another environment just add on another puzzle and a boss monster that looks like all the others. The monsters are all the same just bigger. The Ogre looks like Phogoth. Phogoth just a cool name and more health but still looks like the ogre. Daily, weekly, an nightfall has the same story missions just different modifiers. I like playing this game. Don't get me wrong it is a great game. The replay is high...well because you play the same missions over and over. If you told me this game has 200+ hours of content...you're lying. It has 12 hours of content with a high replay ability. TL;DR: Game has limited hours of content you're just playing it over and over. All the bosses look like monsters you have seen before with cool names and more health. Weeklies and dailies are the same story missions with modifiers.
