The missing ingredient (Destiny)

I don't trash anyone who plays Halo 5 or who likes Halo 5. Do you see me constantly complaining on HBO about it? No. The reason is that in my opinion, Halo 5 has no redeeming value as a video game. I was not impressed by ANY of it. Thus there isn't really anything positive to focus on in terms of possible improvement.

For Destiny, there's some great stuff there. Calls for improvement or criticism could one day lead to a seriously awesome overall experience. If one day Destiny's highs aren't worth grinding through the bad, then yeah. It'll be like Halo 5 and I'll just move on. But that hasn't happened yet.

Forget Halo 5. In a nutshell I said playing with friends is a crucial part of what makes Destiny fun. I don't think you treat it like what it is: a social game. It's all about your very analytical, Cody-centered view of it. Destiny wasn't designed to fit your criteria of what's fun for you and you alone, and I don't think it should be.
