I've heard this line of reasoning used to explain why Destiny's story is bad and that it's the reason for lack of depth.
I'm sure plenty of kids aren't thrilled with the lack of personality and the senseless amounts of grinding either. They're probably not happy about the built-in raid elitism either.
It has an adult level of difficulty at endgame for sure too!
I encountered a 13 year old on a raid once who mastered it. Knew every chest and everything. I still don't know it like that!
Look on the back of your "M" games.
None of mine say rated "M" for having:
Rich content
Story with depth
Characters with personality
Challenging difficulty levels
Great teamwork required etc.
All of my "M" games say thing like:
Intense violence
Blood and Gore
Language
Partial Nudity
Drug use
Sexual Content
Now get your shit straight and ask about why the lead writer for Halo and this project departed during development! Maybe Bungie started acting like forum fanbois and told him to "GTFO" lol.
This game doesn't need to be GTA to be good. So, find out the truth of why it sucked.
Having a complicated and rich story doesn't earn an "M" rating.

Lol, game corporations know parents hardly give a -blam!- about ratings on a game anyway. You all probably have relatives that buy their 10 year old games like GTA5 lol. And game corporations seem to not give a -blam!- if anybody other than grindbois like their cg hamster wheels. Lol!
