If this is all really true, then how about you compare it to $12-15/mo every month to play another MMORPG. $12 x 12mo x 10yr = $1,440. Sounds like Destiny should easily come in less than that if you're only interested in knowing how much you'd spend over the entire story. And I would still take Destiny in that argument since you'd be getting new games every other year AND DLC where most MMO's are just expansions.
