This is not a bash. It comes from someone who, like many of us, really likes Destiny but is reaching a point of burn-out. The things that popped out to me are the lack of carrots and poor communication from Bungie.
If you trawl the forums, you'll find many threads dedicated to each point made, but this is a handy summation of the frustration hardcore Destiny players are, and have been, facing of late.
I'm no hater, and like Kirk, the article's author, I know there's an unbelievable game inside Destiny. I'm looking forward to HoW, but until then, it'll just have to be a strike now and again.
Edit 1: You guys all rock. It's been a very clear-headed conversation in here so far, aside from some weak trolls. And thanks for the bumps! I think it's good to read what a lot of us have been thinking.
Edit 2: I'm pretty sure the forum ninjas have buried any Kotaku-related posts so they don't trend. That's their prerogative, and somewhat understandable despite the normal levels of vitriol you can generally find on these forums.
Feel free to bump if you think others should read it but, after over twenty-four hours of pretty constant replies from you crazy, magnificent bastards, it's fair to say that we don't need an article to spur healthy discussion about one of our favorite games.

I'm one of those players who stick to games for year(s) (haven't even tried WoW so no, im not a WoW player) and support companies by buying their expansions/dlc's if they're worth while (GW1 did the expansions the right way). I quit 2 weeks ago and the money Bungie would've gotten from me will never be received. I was so disappointed with Destiny that i will never even try giving Destiny 2 a chance. Destiny series as a whole is on my "go f*ck yourself" list and that's never changing. Congrats bungie you lost hundreds of dollars from me alone. i would've bought all Destiny dlc/expansions and Destiny sequels if you weren't this f*ckedup and tried to rip everyone off. Destiny is a running joke of the gaming industry, be proud of your achievement, Bungie.
