Me, personally? I call it an MMO. So many of the mechanics and systems they employ mimic and follow standard WoW-style MMOs that it's impossible not to make those connections. You approach the content the game gives you in similar manners and all that. I get a lot of the details aren't exaclty in line but for me it's enough to just think it's an MMO.
Thats the issue I take with Bungies approach to content. How they're treating it, is how Blizzard treats WoW or Square treats Final Fantasy-Gating the content through weekly resets and what not. It's a failure because unlike WoW or FF, there is no subscription to keep with Destiny. It seems they're learning late that having a horde like mode or something repeatable engages interest into the game more than a raid with weekly lock outs. Again, take a look at Diablo 3 and the turn around that game had-Adventure Mode provides interest that doesn't turn stale. Bungie kinda has this with the Bounty system, but the load times really kill that possible aspect, and the 'grindy' aspects of it with no reward(other than the bounty itself) make doing bounties a tedious task. Again, increasing the drops on 'boss' characters(For Strikes and what not) as well as giving you actual rewards for finishing bounties would go a long way to gauge player interest.
And they need another tier of weaponry...Legendaries and Exotics are too sought after, and blues are useless at 20. Maybe increase the pool of Legendaries and increase the drops of those, or increase the different perks/stats between like guns again, would go a long way to longeviate playing the game, going for that perfect 'roll'. Unfortunately they're nixing this option with the gunsmit providing rerolls, but as far as gauging interest in playing the game more, having purple engrams drop more would again, increase the longevity of playing the game. The Gunsmith kinda kills that,a s you can sit there for 10 minutes and just roll away the time, which isn't as exciting as rolling a purple engram.
