I would hope, though, with the reviews being a bit harsh, that bungie, or Activision whichever or both, will see that they need to step up their game a bit. I think it's too much to hope that DLC sales were low enough to warrant a red flag, but perhaps this time around there won't be so many preorders. I know I'll be waiting before I buy the next one. Maybe. But I doubt it.

  • And this is not to say I'm not happy with destiny. My Xbox live account says I've put in 578 hours and I think they are well worth it. I'm going to run both raids this week and probably the nightfall. All of them 3 times over. But I wish the campaign would've been better. And then the little things like race mattering a little more.

  • Completely get where you are coming from. I would be absolutely stunned if Bungie and Activision did not realize that they have some catching up to do to work to meet more of the expectations of their users. I'm afraid to look at my hours, although I know that I have not logged nearly as much as a fair majority of this community. That being said, though, I think that we are not going to see those larger changes right away. I absolutely despise analogies, but I had a Project Manager, years ago, that used to say that a large software project is like a ship. The larger the ship, the harder it is it to change course, and the longer it will take. Fully expect that to hold true here, too. Personally, I think that there will be some effort to start addressing these issues, but some of them are so large that they will fall out of scope of getting them short of a more major release. Gun to my head, and having to guess... I would say that the Comet will start to address the story cohesion issues and some of the larger feature requests, but that Destiny 2 will be getting an even larger overhaul. That has nothing to do with the financial aspect, though, it is more about mitigating risk. The larger the change, the bigger the risk of catastrophic issues. Pushing larger changes out give more time to test, adjust, and polish - even to the point where a few weeks or months could be the difference between sink or swim.
