Destiny's Depths.

I'm REALLY looking forward to this game. The action, the gun play, the competitiveness.. Bungie already has my money. But as I'm looking for a game that can absolutely consume me.. and knowing that Destiny is going to be a 10 year franchise on par with WoW... you have to realize that combat isn't going to define Destiny on it's own. What kind of other activities can we expect going forward in Destiny? Crafting? Trading? Bartering? Auction Houses? Not just hunting.. but gathering? (fishing, mining, herbalism, ect ect) 10 years from now my son will be 14. And about then is when I'll introduce him to shooters (maybe earlier, we'll see how it goes). I guess it gets me thinking.. What kind of non-violent activities will Destiny have that I can share with my children over the next decade? I have a BIJILLION shooters on the consoles right now I can play. I'm really hoping that Destiny has WoW levels of depth to it. I want this game to be how I introduce video games to my children. Besides "shoot things"... What do you think Destiny should have which would give it the depth needed to last the next ten years? If you've read this far, I look forward to reading your answers.

  • A great social experience such as new quests daily, gatherings, open trade market, royal court, etc. just stuff to keep the guardians entertained together since destiny is meant to be played with others.

    • Well for one, if the ground vehicles are as robust as I hope they will be, racing will certainly be a big non-combative activity.

        Hmmmm..... Not sure if you are joking or if you actually believe Destiny leans [i]THAT[/i] far into the MMO/WoW/Skyrim realm.

          Crafting: Of all kind with armor, accessories, items, weapons. All that you can use or just sell to earn a little extra glimmer. Guild homes: Have a sweet place where our team can go and hang out. Place where you can have a public vault where players can take an item out. Also can see like a battle plan for a dungeon of some kind. Also can be upgraded. Auction House: Self explanatory but it only has exotic/Superior. Hunting/Fishing/Flower Picking/Wood Chopping: Just another side quest thing to make items and what not. Goes with crafting. Just some stuff for now.

          • I could see some type of crafting down the road. Armorsmith, Weaponsmith. I wouldn't mind seeing that in the future. Not sure what else you could add to a shooter though? Maybe some housing? I don't know, but i'm excited to see how it goes though.
