The Master Chief Collection is definitely a black eye for us (Destiny)

and he called the next expansion an apology for Destiny.

I'm not sure i'd go that far. HoW appears to incrementally fix small issues with Destiny, while leaving, and in some cases exacerbating the large ones.

My motivation for it is not strong at all, given the lack of a compelling, raid-like endgame activity. Destiny needs a large scale big picture overhaul:

1. Better story
2. Better characters
3. Better world that feels more alive
4. Better and more story missions
5. More multiplayer modes
6. More unique and diverse end game challenges. A lot more.
7. Elimination of RNG based progression

House of Wolves addresses none of this, and actually gives us end game activities that are far less compelling than a raid. The ability to ascend old gear is nothing but another ploy to make you work the investment system and give you something to 'do'. It is not for your benefit even though you think it is.

Comet absolutely needs to kick serious ass. An apology would be addressing all 7 of these issues head on.
