While it is always good to get a fresh perspective or to compare things on an even footing, I think most of the complaints leveled against WOW that you listed are the weakest complaints leveled against Destiny. Size of explorable area, time to finish the game, and "quantity" problems do not address the core issues with the game. The go to example is Portal. Tiny amount of geometry and often beaten in 4 hours, but still one of the best games ever made.

The only other one you mentioned was launch issues, which Bungie handled very well, especially in comparison to other recent title launches. Playing day 1 was a smooth experience for tons of people.

Admittedly - that is because this was made in September. I don't have time to search right now, so I shall direct to this thread of DLC Review links. Among the comments of the linked sites I have seen mentioning about "This is how it works" and then some reference to WOW.

The comment that sparked everything was... along the lines of...

"That's how MMO expansion Works, I all my progress became moot when Warlords of Draenor came out just like every other expansion."
