I can agree with everything you've said. The hardest part of all of this is that Bungie has repeatedly said that this is NOT an MMO. They've created a new genre they call a "Shared-world Shooter". If we go by the definitions of MMO and FPS, then we all set ourselves up for missed expectations. If I take Destiny and remove all the labels, then I am left with a game that has unbelievably solid mechanics, an addicting loot system, sweet looking character customization, and.....an under-developed story. I love the game, but agree that I would have liked a deeper story and more MMO traits such as trading, mini games, better in-game communication, crafting, etc.
