Well you're kinda getting a content drop tomorrow with Age of Triumph
It seems to me that people are about 2 years behind when it comes to news regarding Destiny; misquoting things (the 10 year plan), acting like HoW and TTK didn't happen, that it doesn't matter if the game became something completely different just because it was something else at launch. For a game like this what you had at launch does not matter as no one has played that game for over 2 years now.

- The console game with one of the most active playerbase

He ain't wrong. Destiny is a pretty big game and if Destiny 2 makes substantial improvements, it will sell a shitton of copies

I think it's time for traveler in Destiny 2

I mean, Destiny as of last year had nearly 30 million registered players which I know doesn't directly translate to sales but 25 million for Destiny 2 does not, in any way, feel unreasonable.

Destiny 1 has sold likely in the 20 million ball park. We know its well above 15 million. I have no idea why you would act surprised?

it's the most innovative game of the generation, by far. no shooter has blended single player, co-op, and pvp in a shooter like this.

The original sold 6.4 million in the first month and currently has 30 million registered players. That's ridiculous for a new IP. And this one has the sequel and "new and improved" hype around it. Plus it's being released on PC.
25 million is by no means at all out of the question.

Oh god, I didn't say DLC, I said major updates to a gaming client which could include game engine and content updates regarding expansions/major releases.
Don't act surprised.
That number is very much possible especially since it's across 3 platforms. It's the biggest IP this gen and is extremely popular and people still play it.

people who hate the game refuse to accept how popular it is.

25 million registered users for D1 as of November 2015. Obviously doesn't mean 25 million sold copies, but it's still pretty massive.

Yes.
It's online only, but you can play missions by yourself if you want to. That's as close as SP you will get.

Destiny was such a shit show for me that I would never pay for those expansions that people said fixed most of the problem.
Unless this is jam packed with content the day it releases I will never give them another dime.

This is the most post-Halo Bungie thing ever, just a teaser image showing stuff that was already leaked before without any further info, oh well. Hype I guess.
Watch them only talk about this in their next weekly update without actually revealing anything new. I can hear Deej already say: "there is a time and place for everything, but today, is not that time".

This is not for them though. This is to gain some attention from the general public and to hype up the hardcore players who will do the word of mouth stuff.

I keep forgetting the Tower was a city beneath. It was such a small, empty hub.

Yeah same. But if the structure of the game hasn't changed, I probably won't pick it up day one.

Even the announcement lacks content.
I think Destiny 2 will end up being the best selling game this year (sans RDR2 which does not look like a 2017 release) and I don't think it will be particularly close.

Apparently the Tower is gone too. It's being seized and taken by the enemies. You'll have to fight to get it back.
No one takes my Tower and gets away with it.

Last reported number was over 30 million registered players back on May 5th 2016. The game has entered NPD Top 10 multiple times since then. We also know the game sold over 6.4 million units in launch month alone.
15 million is the absolute minimum number of copies Destiny 1 has sold, and it is very likely in the 20 million range or near it at this point. Destiny 2 will also have a PC version for the first time.
25 million isn't a surprising or large estimate at all. Destiny 2 is likely going to be bigger than Call of Duty
that contract was out of date the day it was posted. one of the better things about moving to a new sequel is maybe people will stop dry humping that contract release as relevant information.
Borderlands doesn't have dungeons, raids, and it's PvP can't be compared to Destiny.
