Name a game other than the elder scrolls that has actually been worth the 60 dollar price tag in the past five years. Even mass effect as a series wasnt worth the price tag until they released the trilogy. I wasnt a part of the hype machone between E3 2013 and final launch of destiny primarily because I was too busy playing PC games and attending classes. I picked up Destiny to check it out and it is one of the best IPs out right now. As far as living up to the hype machine, I would sooner hold that the player imagined a bunch of shit and took as fact a bunch of shit that was never really confirmed. Being someone who has seen some of the inside of the game development cycle, I can tell you with full confidence that nothing is set in stone until release, and even then a situation can still change.
