It seems to me that while Bungie is giving us tidbits of information as they are ready to put it out, that they are giving perhaps [i]too little[/i]...
It must be hard for anyone who hasn't played/doesn't know of Bungie's work to be hyped for this game, when so seriously little is known. Most people are only pre ordering Destiny due to their knowledge of their previous work, regardless of the fact we know such a tiny amount about it.
I am concerned that it will effect sales, and ultimately online populations, since the way they have been drip-feeding us, hype among those who aren't already Bungie fans are really low.
Like, I seriously am the only one among my friends that is excited for this. And its understandable, since the only 'game-changing' element Bungie keeps pushing forward is seamless matchmaking, which will also feature in (perhaps the more well-known) Watchdogs and The Division, and isn't something unseen before (Journey, remember?). And busting open the idea of a FPSMMO-that-isn't-a-MMO means nothing if you won't show us something that proves it is to be excited for. :(
So while I will buy this game, and chances are I will love it to death, do you feel Bungie is doing what they are right? Or do you feel they are maybe shooting themselves in the foot?
Discuss dear fellows.

Steve, I don't think the low amount of info up to this point will be a problem. The beta is going to do all the advertising they need. I think they are planning on letting the game speak for itself. I think I saw somewhere that they are trying to get some crazy amount of people into the beta. This shows to me that they have a lot of confidence in this game.
