All games are time wasters on one level or another. (Destiny)

I'll re-phrase, it's MORE fun with your friends than solo.

Destiny is not a game that encourages solo play (not that it isn't possible). The encounters are designed to be played with other players, hopefully friends.

Many of the frustrations that people have with this game are legitimate , and I experience them too. Destiny is a fun game to play. But when you get to a point in ANY game where you're not playing it because it's fun, then I think it's time to stop and go to something else.

(If I hadn't started posting to HBO around ODST, I would have been done with Halo after I beat the campaign on H3. It was getting stale for me at that point. It was still a great game, but I realized I needed people to play with to keep me interested in it. In Destiny this is even more obvious.)
