Those numbers where right after the taken king. There have been polls; a lot of people quit with the introduction of silver, many quit during festival of the lost (me), and more quit daily due to the bullshit.

Not my money, I got it for free. And you mean 24,999,997 because I have 3 accounts using Destiny. Oh, and me and my girlfriend game share across our Xboxes so that's one less again. Don't trust what isn't accurately posted. 25 million users doesn't mean 25 million playing it. How many original people still play it. They didn't post active daily, Weekly or monthly users and have no way of predicting secondary/tertiary/remade due to banned accounts. So it isn't arrogance, it's the same hubris Bungie uses in every update, post, and statistic posted. I mean, remember when they Twitch streamed Court Of Oryx as an announcement like it was gonna be a thing. Or how they said the community would have to work together to solve the riddles behind our new exotics, and the community did, with theories, searching hidden meanings and digging so deep to find the elusive Sleeper Simulant? Then it turned out that all we had to do was wait. That's Bungie's hubris, so I feel arrogantly obliged to do the same.
