Why rewards always devalue the game experience

I definitely agree with a lot of these ideas, and all of them to a certain degree. I think this is the reason why so many people are in love with Skyrim and even Minecraft (including me). I do however love games with achievements and rewards for different reasons, and sadly a good game does not always equal longevity. One of my favorite games of all time is Chrono Trigger, but it's not exactly a game you can play as non-stop (even with its 13 (or 15 if you count minor changes) endings). But like previously stated by other replies that is one of the reasons why I'm very excited for Destiny. It seems like it's going to have a story I love and plenty to do even after the story is done.
