..Just another completely worn out, apathetic, and mildly disappointed launch player here posting about how I'm pretty much done with Destiny.
Given I've logged over 400 hours now, and not going to complain about not getting my "money's worth", but let's face it.. this game is not what people like me wanted from it. It will slowly turn every player into a casual, whether you like it or not. Don't believe me? Go ahead and grind for countless hours to try to get ahead, explore more, improve your character... then tell me where it leaves you.
The game is fun. It's beautiful in many ways. Infinite amounts of promise to what it could be - or at least in the eyes of players like myself who were looking for the next BIG thing where they could go all-in and dedicate countless hours to raiding and journeying the stars. Sad that it just can't keep up.
I'll still be logging on for the occasional weekly activity with some friends. I still enjoy a little Crucible from time to time. The days of being able to play Destiny every day though? Over. I'm sure for many of you they are not, but take a lesson and make them last. There is no sense to burning through and worrying about needing every exotic with a childish level of impatience. The faster you have them all the faster you'll be where players like myself have ended up and see almost no purpose left in the game.
