I think it's fairly simple. (Destiny)

He wants to feel rewarded for his flavor and degree of investment, and that's not being met. I can sympathize. Speaking for myself I'm heartbroken at the retcons and the overall state of the canon; but that doesn't keep me from enjoying everything else.
But I think it's fairly common among the fandom these days. Destiny doesn't reward players in the same way that Halo did, and I think one of the main reasons for that is that Destiny is designed to reward investment over time (and has a shifting meta, which keeps things dynamic); whereas Halo was a complete experience that didn't require various forms of investment to allow the player to experience all it had to offer.
Apples and oranges, to be sure. But as you've pointed out, he's still here. I'm convinced it's a shift in perspective that's needed.
