Before Destiny even came out, we were told, it was one of the biggest games in the industry. Documents that came to light as part of the bitter legal battle between Infinity Ward and Activision alluded to a ten-year long agreement to create a new shooter. Dots started to get connected, and people figured that this shooter was Destiny, the new project from the creators of Halo and, judging from the wild numbers that had begun to be thrown around, one of the most ambitious projects in the industry. There was something about it that sort of made sense, especially when viewed at the time in the light of Call of Duty. Activision was pursuing a publishing strategy that had no room for small games, and Destiny was their latest moonshot.
