I agree with Leviathan . . . (Gaming)
And I'm not trying to be a smart ass, or start an argument. I'm just pointing out that different people expect different things. If expectations weren't met for some people, I'd argue that it's it's the fault of warped expectations, not Bungie's fault of not doing what they promised.
I know this can be a delicate subject, so please understand I don't say any of this from a place of disappointment or entitlement. I love the Destiny we got, but it is certainly not the Destiny we were told we'd be getting. I'm not saying it is better or worse; simply that the game we've been playing for the past year is in many ways a different game than Bungie's marketing told us we would be playing.
So I don't think it's really fair to say our expectations are our own fault; our collective expectations were largely informed by Bungy's marketing, which ended up being off-point in several ways.
