With all the hype surrounding the game, many thought Destiny would be huge both in sales and from critics. But looking at gamerankings.com, which takes numerous reviews and then averages them, Destiny seems to be not doing so hot. High sales are guaranteed, but if negative press persits I don't see the game having very good legs. Look at Watch Dogs vs Mario Kart 8. Watch Dogs may have outsold it at first, but mixed reviews made it dip into a poor sales point, while Mario Kart 8 hasn't sold under 50k any week it's been out, which has been 3 months on vgchartz now. And Destiny has even lower ratings than Watch Dogs, so I believe after it's first month (if not sooner) it will take a nosedive into the point of no return.
Don't believe me? here's the ratings (http://www.gamerankings.com/browse.html?site=&cat=0&year=2014&numrev=3&sort=0&letter=&search=Destiny)

I never expected it to get amazing reviews. It's doing slightly worse than I thought it would, but oh well... They have already profited. I'm sure the sequel will fix any issues they have now.

Not sequel, expansions. Seriously how do people not get this yet? Bungie said from the start this is a TEN YEAR PROJECT! There won't be a sequel for a LOOOOOONG time and they will keep releasing expansions for the story and progression with new worlds to explore and new sections of the existing ones.

That is no excuse. Compare it to a real mmo like WOW. The first game on its own offered 10 times more story and good pvp, arenas and a bunch of classes and the next expansion like all, take a year to release and dont cost $35 like destiny. So its a ripoff and a disapointment. If its true that the game is incomplete and thats why tit got low scores then they should not have charged $60 for it. Each expansion on WOW is a game on its own that last a long time and its not just WOW, all other MMO's do it so destiny does not get a pass.

WoW is an RPG so more story is kinda expected. Most FPS campaigns only last 6-10 hours so story-wise this is about right for an FPS. There's plenty of other game modes and content to keep users busy for an MMO-FPS. They've got a decent basis from which to update and improve the game.
Plus you don't pay a subscription to play and the game doesn't have micro-transactions. With that in mind the pricing seems right so far.
