Nobody said we were using 6 months as a benchmark. For a fully fleshed PC MMO like WoW six months is nothing, in console terms it's an eternity. Too many good games coming out to take people's attention, helped by the fact you don't need to upgrade your hardware continuously to play those newer fancier games on console. How many people play a console game for a couple of months, beat it, and move on to something else. Not many keep people playing for as long as Destiny has, except maybe GTA:Online that has been going strong for a year and a half.

Any mmo(this IS an mmo) keeps people playing for ages. Console or PC, it doesn't matter. You think never winter will be a short term game? It will be the "go to" game for years. I play Warframe still after 2 years. Destiny, although fun, missed the mark and disappointed millions. Gamers are emotional and we need promises kept our we get bitchy. Lol

Gamers are getting more fussy all the time man. We're spoiled as hell these days to get games that see continued support and patches and DLC and stuff. My old NES, Sega Genesis, and N64 games came as-is and you got what you got, bugs and all. There was no DLC adding new dungeons to Zelda games but you could still play them over and over again. Hell, I still play some of those games today. So many games are disposable these days despite being incredible games. It's all "what have you done for me lately?"
