I know we have quite little info on the game as far as like PvP and how the menu will look and the little secrets of the game, but...I just don't get how some are so luke-warm on their excitement. Even with the little bit of gameplay we've gotten in the past year or so it still looks so incredible to me. We have a release date. We have E3 to look forward to very soon. There's no doubt at all that this game will blow all of our minds. We have proof of what Bungie can do with the past Halo's, and now we have a game that everyone there is truly poring their hearts into and have had the time to make it the way they envision it. It's going to be utterly incredible.
Destiny is my second most anticipated event of September...First place goes to my wedding...

You listed one of the lukewarm reception reasons right off the bat. Problem 1 - Destiny's programming DNA is identical to Halo. Essentially it looks and plays like Halo with a different setting. I'll grant you a great setting but still. Problem 2 - The secrecy was carried too far. Yeah it is fine to keep folks in the dark but when you call in a veritable shitstorm of press to preview a game that is touted to progress the shooter platform beyond the standard of today and show not a drop of what differentiates it from other shooters you are asking for trouble. The press pretty much cut through the bullshit and let it show by writing the truth: "Bungie screwed up trying to make us marketing stooges" Problem 3 - "We rested on our laurels because of who we are". This is kind of tied to problem 2 but it sums up the entirety of the issue. Bungie kept stating they wouldn't "Rest on the laurels because of who we are" but from a PR standpoint that pretty much IS what happened. I'm still excited for the game and will be getting down on some Beta. I am approaching Destiny from a hopeful standpoint mixed with wary skepticism due largely to the bumbling show that was portrayed from this event.
