Destiny is not a MMORPG, Bungie has stated several times it's not. Even though it plays EXACTLY like one and I too thought it was that and called it that, but no they're not mmorpgs.

.... WEIRD..

Yes...I said "some" never made the claim "all" however them forcing different things on people or not doesn't change the fact that it's still story driven....not sure what point you thought you had there.

The point being that because SOME offer the opportunity to level differently doesn't mean that games that force you to progress a certain way don't exist. Which was your earlier argument that all MMORPGs are story driven and

The other developers don’t force you to play how they want you to play.

.. cause some do.

I'm not sure why you've chosen to die on this hill of "everything is story driven". cause there's lots of MMO games out there that couldn't care less if you paid attention to the story, FFXIV focuses on it more though. This doesn't mean all other aspects are meaningless or inconsequential, just that the story is both a major selling point and a severely integral and referenced part of the progression. This is not true for every game.
