Wow, about to give up (Destiny)

Is there even the slightest possibility that you and Avateur are being incredibly impatient?

If the game is getting progressively less fun after playing it for near 40 hours, something is amiss if that's an issue of "patience."

Why is it getting progressively less fun?

Again, not trying to attack anyone, just wondering why I'm not having the same sentiments as others.

It gets less fun because the more you play, the worse the grind gets. I don't know if you are level 20 yet, but there is basically nothing new to do, and you are stuck doing the same stuff over and over. The bounties are easy but tedious. Yes, crucible is fun, but that's about all there is unless you like doing the same 6 strikes over and over in the vanguard playlist for gear and marks.

I'm coming from Halo, so I don't see the difference--I see Destiny as giving you much more to do after beating the campaign than any Halo game ever did. I don't have much MMO experience so I can't judge it from any perspective except what Bungie has done previously--and from that perspective I think Destiny has given us more, even if there is very long term content. Yeah, the transition from quick progression (1-20) to super long term progression (20+) is super jarring, but for a game I plan to play for a very long time, at least I have things to look forward to.
