Is Bungie making a competitive hero shooter? (Destiny)

Would be surprised if it were exclusively multiplayer focused like overwatch.

Bungie currently has not shown any ability to maintain a competitive multiplayer game on the level that would be required to match their contemporaries. Part of this is almost certainly that their games are wildly ambitious in terms of scope - Destiny's connected PvP and PvE is a constant source of balancing problems, but when they do pull it off it's very cool. I would imagine that some at Bungie are just as frustrated as the players are about how Destiny gameplay effects must be so thoroughly vetted in so many environments, and that a more focused game would attractive to work on.
