Which is not to say it's a good excuse (Destiny)
Great observations. For me, grandiose vision not quite realized covers a multitude of sins. Swing for the fences, goddamnit.
But, it's an excuse with a lot of hope. Instead of people thinking Bungie sat around twiddling their thumbs trying to come up with new missions and drawing a blank, I believe they ran around frantic and panicked that they would even ship a solid game. They did ship a solid game IMHO and they can easily build story and mission on top of what they shipped.
I think it's the right tack to take, having not been there ourselves. Benefit of the doubt, in most cases, is best doubt.
EDIT: I mean jeeze so many want to just jump to "so and so is terribad" when some creation disappoints them. Creating is hard yah know! (Your post proves you know that)
