Were Bungie's ambitions higher than what they could deliver? (Destiny)

I'm really beginning to think so.

First, read this superb analysis of the changes made to Destiny since E3: http://www.reddit.com/r/PS4/comments/2bx7qh/were_bungies_ambitions_higher_than_what_they/

Finished?

Now let's talk about it.

It seems to me that Destiny fell prey to the same problem that plagued Halo 2: over-ambition. When you compare the way the game was presented at E3 with the way it turned out, there is an obvious dissonance.
