That info is wrong. There's more levels than that. (Destiny)

Read the comments below the post. He didn't parse the database properly. He's counting each difficulty setting of each Strike as a separate Strike. The original information is current as of the database on 6/30/14, and is correctly parsed. I'm hoping it's is wildly inaccurate, but I'm reigning in my hype for September. That being said, I enjoyed the hell out of Old Russia for a little over 12 hours and never complained. So, I imagine we'll all be just fine with the full game, it's just not nearly as large as I was expecting.

It also helps if you take the perspective of Destiny being a FPS, not a MMO. Bungie has been very careful to not refer to Destiny as a MMO. Now we see why. As a FPS, this is a beautiful, beautiful game. As an MMO, it's small. This, of course, is based on what we know from the Alpha and the Beta.

Prior to this knowledge, I was still having a blast with the Beta. Knowing it's smaller than I thought doesn't make it less fun, it just requires me to reset my expectations. Which, admittedly, is difficult to do.

Hype is reigned in (probably brought to 'non-Bunge fanboy' levels really) but I'm still looking forward to September in a big way.
