Bungie should cease support for Destiny as soon as possible
With the release of Tom Clancy's The Division, it has become abundantly clear that Destiny's lifespan has reached its end. No major expansion content is planned, and the majority of Bungie's team is focusing on Destiny II, with only a small skeleton crew remaining to tend for Destiny.
The simple fact of the matter that Destiny has far passed its peak level of activity. Players are leaving en masse to the competition like Tom Clancy's The Division, and at this rate Destiny will be on life support before the sequel is even announced. Destiny and the population within is not sustainable, despite the microtransactions.
Therefore, I propose Bungie throw out some dead weight, so to speak, and cease support for Destiny as soon as Destiny II hits store shelves. Before then, I think it would be prudent to scale back support for the last generation versions of the game (Xbox 360 and PS3), seeing as those consoles are obsolete.
Trying to hold on to a population that's dropping day by day is like trying to grip a wet bar of soap tightly; it doesn't work. Best not to waste time and money supporting a game that players don't support, and focus all your attention on the future.
You're welcome.

The game is just over 2 weeks old and people are already claiming that their friends have left the game, they have no one to play with, there's no content and the little content there is isnt playable for people who dont have friends around etc. Now, you could argue that the DZ is down to personal prefernces and that it's possible to work around the friend problem but what's absolutely a fact is that the game is full of bugs. Matchmaking is just a disaster, with people not transfering correctly, constantly falling through the map when zoning in, random mission zoning, missions not activating so that you have to leave group and restart the whole process etc etc. The point is; While the Division might have caught the attention of a good deal of players at the moment it's not the main reason Destiny activity has gone down. The activity in this game is nothing but a reflection of this game's current state, which is poor. People were basically pushed toward the competition, whether they were that interested in it or not (like me, I had no great interest in the Division but it's currently filling a void). The Division will have no longterm impact on my Destiny activity but I'm worried that my absensce in itself will. Hell, regardless of the Division I probably wouldnt have played Destiny atm - nor am I interested in a tweaked variant of a game mode I didnt play when it was first released.
