Anyone who's disappointed after purchasing Destiny because of hype only has themselves to blame.

or because it's called Halo and will get recognition because it fits your purposes.  Now Destiny doesn't have a complete story it's true.  That's mainly because they have TEN years to finish the story so they're not going to spell it all out upfront.  If it plays mostly the same and has a few new interesting mechanics that work it should basically the same scores.  People just expected something completely different than what Bungie was selling for some reason.  Bungie never said it would be anything other than an open world shooter with an evolving world over 10 years.  Sure they used hyperbole in the ads but every company does that it's called advertising.

....really?

is gameplay not the most important thing?

Its an important factor but it is not what makes a FULL game. The fact that you said that bolded statement shows that you know nothing about how reviews are done. They don't just say "Oh, this plays like Halo, just throw whatever score we gave the last Halo on there."
