http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-4/destiny (edit: at the time of this writing, Destiny is at a 74/100 rating on Metacritic, which is in the yellow range)

I know I read something about Bungie getting a $2.5million bonus if the game averaged 90/100 on Metacritic. I guess they missed the mark. Getting the yellow mark is a big deal, unfortunately.

On the modern scale, 74/100 (the current score) is bad. For a AAA title, it's abysmal. What went wrong, and how much of this is due to unmet hype?
