First off most people have no problem with things like improvements to already existing systems like match making. The issue that most people have is when some solo players come out demanding solo end game content, such as the original post that kicked this whole thing off, that this post was made in response to. Second there is an extremely simple explanation that does away with your idea that the story is solo based, it is cheaper and easier. Showing only one guardian on screen is significantly cheaper and saves a ton of programming time. Mean while the actual mechanics demonstrate the complete opposite of what you are saying, everything, even the story is designed with multiplayer in mind. Which is why you get better rewards for playing with others. Not to mention the fact that Bungie themselves have made it extremely clear that destiny is a multiplayer game, meaning all of destiny. This is also demonstrated in every bit of advertisement as well. Destiny as a whole is a multiplayer game, there is no way that, that fact could be made any more clear.
