The natives are getting restless (Destiny)

I appreciate your posts, so don't take it personally. I don't really understand your point of view post-beta announcement, but okay. You seem to have a better idea than I do regarding what kind of game Destiny is, and how a community should be built for such a game. I can't debate what I don't know, so I went with "This is where my head is regarding Destiny."

Not taken personally, don't worry - I just wanted to focus on what I consider the important point of what I wrote, which isn't really about me at all, but what I think would help Bungie make Destiny succeed.

I don't know if I'm in the right direction with my thinking about how Destiny will play. It's kind of frustrating that this late in the day I still don't have much clarity in that regard, but I've decided to just run with the idea of it being how I imagine it will be, and I'll have to amend my thinking later if I'm badly wrong. All of what I wrote is predicated on certain assumptions about gameplay, but I think it very unlikely that the gameplay is so different that it invalidates my suggested engagement with the community on game mechanics.

As ever, we shall see.
