Yeah, but . . . (Destiny)

I honestly never expected Destiny to hold my constant attention any longer than a Halo game. With a Halo game I would blast through the campaign, maybe do a little firefight, and then play multi player every other day for an hour or two. Eventually I would play back through campaign.

But with Destiny I have played almost every single day for multiple hours for the past 4 weeks. It's been nuts. I was absolutely pulled into the investment system and am still being pulled back by it (I have no Raid gear, and still need to level up my legendaries/exotics). I have wanted to max out my marks and the daily/weekly challenges and I NEVER used to care about Halo's weekly challenges because XP didn't really mean anything in-game.

Over the weekend I started feeling the pull a little less, but I have already invested a much higher density of my time in Destiny than any game before.
