It's called an MMO. Welcome to the genre.

  • That's not what an MMO is unless you're playing garbage ones such as WOW

  • Most MMO's become a grindfest at some point. ESO, WoW, Tera, EQI & 2, CoH and the list goes on and on.

  • There is a difference between needing to grind for a short amount of time and a permagrind though

  • [spoiler]A massively multiplayer online game (also called MMO and MMOG) is a multiplayer video game which is capable of supporting large numbers of players simultaneously. By necessity, they are played over a network, such as the Internet. MMOs usually have at least one persistent world, however some games differ.[/spoiler]

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massively_multiplayer_online_role-playing_game You don't have to have 50 people on screen at once for it to be an MMO...

  • Here is a direct quote from the link you just posted. "MMORPGs are distinguished from single-player or small multi-player online RPGs by the number of players able to interact together," "By the number of players able to interact together" in no way does Destiny allow a LARGE number of players to interact. Again, Destiny is NOT an MMO just because you play it online with a couple of your friends. How do you interact with other Guardians in Destiny? Via Fireteams, which I broke down in a previous post with the highest number you can have is 6. IMO, 6 people playing together in way can be determined to be a large number of players.

  • "MMORPGs are distinguished from single-player or small multi-player online RPGs by the number of players able to interact together," You literally see players you have never met at the Tower, Reef or on Patrols and missions everyday. That you can all interact with or invite to do stuff. Millions of -blam!-ing people dude. Just because you don't see them all at once does not mean it isn't an MMO... Oh man, only 6 man fire teams, not an MMO. Not how it works dude. ESO raids are only 12 manned... WoW parties are 5 people in dungeons or just running around. Although I do play with my friends most of the time I have also done raids with many random people I have met at the Tower, forums etc. It is a -blam!-ing MMO, deal with it lmao.
