Went to my local EB yesterday... so many returned copies of Destiny. What future for Destiny?

It was ridiculous how many copies there were. Even a bunch of fully clad collector and ghost edition formats. These were people who bought the marketing, bought the hype, bought the game - and have promptly returned it. To be honest I thought gripes about Destiny not lasting past December far-fetched. But I swear I saw over 50 returned copies in one CBD EB games, and that says nothing to how many more they had out back. This is a really worrying sign for the games long term future. The gunplay is great. The story is (what story?) abysmal. The matchmaking is non-existent. The customisation options promised are Eva Lavantés two shaders. The colour of almost every ship is poop brown. And the stuff ups with engrams, RNG and over-zealous nerfing have pushed a lot of early players over the edge. It feels like there is a lack of content and a lot of cut content - far from what was 'promised' by E3 reveals and marketing. What now? tl;dr The game appears to be in trouble - is there any way Destiny can come back from this? What would Destiny need to do to 'save' this game for you, and keep you playing for the next 10 years? What keeps you playing now? EDIT: Wow, a lot of hate in here. Calm the blam! down. Please be constructive if you have the capacity. Some are telling me this is no big deal, others are saying it's sympotatic of the disappointment Destiny has been. Who knew there'd be differences in a gaming community hey? If you're going to comment don't be a donkey about it - leave your entitled sarcasm at the door. EDIT 2: Dark Below DLC released for December 9th, but only comes with 3 new story missions :/ http://planetdestiny.com/new-dark-details-release-date/
