Yeah, that's definitely a problem, but it's one we need to solve at a higher level.

I'd say it's one we should strive to solve at every level.

I hear you. I'm just not convinced that ‘no communication except between existing friends, pointing and waving’ is an acceptable outcome for a game that's ostensibly social like Destiny. I'd rather there be a more permissive system, then consequences for antisocial behaviour.

I think it can be.

Go back again to what Bungie called Destiny: a "shared world" shooter. It's not really about socialization as such. It's about making your gameplay feel like a part of something larger.

I'm thinking more of an expansion of the Journey experience, rather than a contraction of the WoW experience. That's OK with me.
