Every time I see a post like this (there's one every other post it seems) I can't help but think these have to be 15 year olds complaining. There's no way a grown adult who grew up gaming on Nintendo and SNES and other past systems that didn't have the luxury of the Internet complains about stuff like this.
Grind? I've been grinding games since i started gaming. Mario, street fighter 2, mortal kombat and so on and so forth. I beat those games more than I can count and for why? Because it was fun. They're still fun, and they don't give you any rewards even close to what destiny gives you. We got cutscenes as the reward and knowing you beat the game. All you pussies who are complaining are just entitled little brats that expect everything for free and that everyone should adhere to all your needs.
Grow up. It's a game. If you don't like it take it back. You have that freedom to do so. You also have the freedom to complain and be a little bitch and you're exercising that to the fullest.
Get these turds some pacifiers, stat!!!

Your argument is flawed. Those games all come from an era that was extremely restricting. Hardware limitations, lack of Internet and a gaming industry still growing all influenced those games. At the time, it was fine for a game to be repetitive & a grind, simply because that was the norm. It's now 2015, none of those restrictions apply to Destiny. They have the finance & means to supplement this game continuously and to some extent, lessen the grind… not eradicate it, but bring it to a reasonable level. Instead, they use grinding to extend the game as opposed to supplementing it with actual content. So your comparison is null.
