Key Words: At some point (Destiny)

I think there is a huge difference is experience if you get a huge chunk of content at once, versus have it drip fed in DLC over time.

If Bungie released Destiny out the gate with a shitload of locations and planets to explore, the feeling would be that of amazement, excitement, and curiosity. There'd be so much, you just wouldn't know where it ends, giving a great illusion of a huge solar system with tons of stuff to do and explore.

But when you get content periodically, you lose that, since you reach that limit much quicker. You see the end and lose the magic, and with each new place you get, you know that's all the mystery there is. If you have the Europa DLC pack, you know all you get is Europa. If it's just a huge game, you have no idea where it ends.

If anything Bungie needs to give us tons and tons of spaces that they have never mentioned before anywhere, to preserve that sense of mystery.
