Is it worth buying Destiny? (Destiny)

Yes, it's clear to me, too. I used to be a door-to-door salesman when I was young. I learned a lot about life, about people, and about what it means to be a good salesman. (One hint: a good salesman doesn't try to sell to people who don't need or want what they're selling.) I don't think you need or want Destiny. If you have to think about it this much, you shouldn't buy it. You seem to have little interest in the social aspects of the game, which says to me you're not interested in the aspects that make Destiny special. It's not another Halo. Based on your comments, I suspect you want it to be. (That's understandable. Many of us wanted it to be that.) Destiny is a living game best consumed with others, and you've already missed things you can't experience anymore. I think the range of experiences it offers currently is an incredible value for the price, but I don't know if I'd feel that way just based on it's single-player activities. Bungie has made a new game that probably doesn't align with your interests in the same way their older games did. It's fine to walk away.

This was very thoughtful and well said.
