This is literally what all video games do that want you to keep playing.
Most people define this phenomenon as "having fun", "creating enjoyment", or "pleasure".
You are clearly a child or new to gaming if you consider this a "treadmill".
There are people that ran WoW raids for weeks to be able to move up to the next raid that they had to run for weeks to move up to the next raid that they had to run for weeks to get the best gear or legendary weapon they wanted. Substitute weeks for months if you have average or poor luck. Games before that had guild leaders that doled out gear based on commitment and playtime, so anyone playing less than 40 hours a week had no chance.
I've gotten everything I've wanted out of Destiny in every expansion and I play probably 20-25 hours a week. I played WoW 40+ hours a week for years and got maybe 10% of the items I wanted.
Your hubris remark is #amusing

This game is as rotten as your soul

Well, WoW sounds dumb as shit. Why do people try to say all games similar have to match it completely? I see people say all the time 'it's what wow does'
-
Your completely missing the point and finger pointing. Sorry Fanboi, but your wrong and H is right.

No. What you are is a fanboi. Most games want to make money, sure. But I have yet to find one as douschy in giving less content for a higher price that is a main title game widely purchased, at least initially. I don't care if you personally like, it, that's fine. But what you like is space invaders with fancy graphics and a lease to play. [i]Even[/i] Call of Duty has better ethics than Destiny. So go on because your comparison only exists in your mind. Every other game I can think of charges less for more content. And you know something? They're doing fine in business, whether you personally like their games or not.

Good one. Cod has six hours of story and 4 pop only maps per dlc. Idiot.

Funny you like Destiny and you are calling me an idiot while you flush your money down a toilet meant to take as much cash as possible. My revenge on you? To let you keep being so ridiculous.

Can't wait for your irl reality check. More to life than your parents house.

Edited by Razzupaltuff: 12/4/2015 1:58:39 PMDefinitely, given that my parents are both dead for a decade or so after having died at (more or less) high age. All that being said to me by an idiot who has been flushing down his life 40 the gutter hours a week (!!!) for WoW (which for several reasons I never started to play). Your way of throwing derogatory comments and insults at me just reveals who you are: The lifeless lowlife you claim others to be.
