The closed-mindedness is real. I blame 343 and Halo 4.
It shouldn't be real and it doesn't matter who you blame. Halo 4 has nothing to do with you deciding to take a person's whole career and disclaim it as trash, pre-emptively even.
[from another post]
I'd say that's a pretty fair assessment. Destiny has practically nothing going for it in terms of story right now beyond whatever the Queen and Eris are up to. Maybe it'll work out. Expectations may not be Halo-level, but there are definitely pretty big story expectations due to the large disappointment from the lack thereof in year one.
How does that work? "I'm disappointed in you, so I'm expecting great things."
