In the video I shared, COD in general is bashed pretty hard. He talks about how other games are "copying COD" by making skill gap compression a thing. However, in the video, he doesn't mention Destiny once. Does this mean that Destiny isn't doing this? I mean, we have SBMM, which the community seems to have brainwashed to say it's bad. But that's a topic for another thread. Anyway, watch this, keep Destiny in mind, and then discuss below. A few questions crossed my mind, I'll be posting them in the spoilers below.
[spoiler]Is the alternative to SBMM skill gap compression? Would skill gap compression be better than SBMM?[/spoiler]
[spoiler]Why isn't Destiny ever mentioned? It's an FPS, and he mentioned plenty of each kind, those who copy and those who don't.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]If COD dies off, where will it's players go? What would happen to this community if all the COD players joined it?[/spoiler]
Anyway, discuss. Also, ninjas, if you feel this thread needs to be moved, please pm me or comment below to talk about why, because I feel this is strongly Destiny related.

Skill compression and SBMM are two very different things. But destiny's version of skill compression is the free super (charges over time/no kills required) firebolts. Shade Step. Fist of panic. Smoke and nade combo. Doctrine. TLW. Etc...
