He wasn't sitting in a warehouse. The only old Bungie employee left is Jason Jones. It's become the norm to hate on everything. Game reviews focus on the bad and don't say much about the good. Review scores are arbitrary. IGN spent more than half of a review I read saying CoD:AW had a terrible single player campaign the story was full of inconsistencies and random exposition. Then they said about equal parts good and bad about the pvp and slapped. 9/10 on it. The review of DA:I where he actually beat the game, was one of the best reviews I've read. Because he actually played the game. Yes Destiny's campaign was short and left people wanting, and the endgame leaves something to be desired, I won't argue with that. But as far as I can tell, most of the server issues are fixed, they fixed the cryptarch, they fixed the loot cave(s), they did some fixes to the raid and they're pushing out new content quarterly. Destiny is only going to get better. Most of the reviews I read went in with an expectation. Is this going to be like Halo, Borderlands, WoW or CoD. In the end it wasn't quite like any of those and they reviewed as such. I bought it expecting something much more MMO like, I was a little frustrated when I hit 20 and it was just a gear grind with limited content. Then I reminded myself what WoW was early in 2005, one raid, a handful of instances (strikes), no vendors, no rep, a few confusing factions, a lot of disconnects and login queues. Yes WoW had a social aspect, yes WoW had 60 levels, yes WoW had a more open world, yes WoW had more plot and lore (but they already had 10 years in the franchise) and WoW had a lot more classes and abilities. But in the end it's largely the same. Go here, kill this, get x reward you don't need. Go raid, get gear, grind factions, get gear, farm mats, upgrade gear... Bungie made a console fps/mmo-something or other, which was supposed to appeal to to masses. Which it seems to have done. Early in the hardcore fps people didn't like it because it was too easy, the mmo people didn't like it because it was too fps-like and other people hated it because it got them a lot of YouTube views. Whatever Destiny might have been, it is what it is. Almost every post I see about it failing to meet expectations was filled with assumptions and personal expectations based of what they had interpreted. It's clear some things got changed and cut. But it wasn't to resell it to you as DLC, they clearly went a different direction in the end. Which isn't a direction everyone liked, but there it is.
