According to their Upcoming page FFG are doing a reprint of the Kylo Ren Starter Set and Rey Starter Set, but no one is buying that anymore, they are just sitting on the shelves where I'm from, and from what I understand the cards are from the older sets as well and so will cycle out soon. The 2-player starter set is what everyone is buying as well as the Luke and Boba starter sets.

If I was them I would cancel that order, or am I missing something.

According to the "Upcoming" page at FFG, the latest updates on those two starters are from July and August, but I don't know what changed. Maybe the reprints on those happened 2 months ago, and no more are coming. Clicking on the products, there's an article about reprints coming, but it's dated from Feb 2017.

Ffg doesn't update it that often. It's also not true many times they'll list products they already have as at the printer.(read up on lcg cycles) It's just a PR piece to keep the the natives happy.

If they were to end the game when the current cycle ends, they'd need to have a way to encourage people to buy up the remaining inventory. Keeping all of the starter decks available as long as possible might make a bit of sense. But I doubt it.

Considering that at this moment Destiny is still on the top 10 highest grossing CCG's in the world, I doubt they are planning a discontinuation of the product (though these days I'm wary of making such predictions), they have dropped sharply in the second half of this year so you never know. Certainly interest in the game has declined, at least in terms of consumer purchases anyway.

Generally speaking very few CCG's make it past year 3, and Destiny will hit year 3 this November in just 8 days so we will see if it has a future.

For me personally if the game was discontinued I would buy up everything I could at the last minute from the bargain bins, my gaming group loves the game and we play it more regularly then any other LCG OR CCG FFG has ever made. We just don't have any interest in official play and the game's business model is designed in such a way that it really doesn't encourage purchases for casual players which I think was a big blunder on their part when it comes to Destiny.

For me the issue is that in most cases, you need 2 copies/dice of each character to make it deck worthy and because that is random, your options is buy a metric crap ton and hope for the best or go to the third market which knocks out your entire casual player base. Personally I have spent about 150 dollars (my friends average the same) on the game which I think is a lot for casual playing group and in my collection I can basically put together 2 viable decks that are relatively competitive in my group. That is not much variety but in 90% of the cases its because I don't have a 2nd die for a character.

This game should have been a Living Card Game, it was a mistake to make it a CCG model, but even if they insisted on that they should have include 2 dice with each hero to at least make the whole concept viable for deck building. I mean I have a box full of dice I know I will probably never use simply because they aren't paired up which results in me basically only buying for Destiny when I can get a fat discount (bargain bins) which actually these days is becoming easier to find, not a great sign for the game, but great for my gaming group that is eager to get more cards.

Destiny hits a full two years in December not 3. Still I expect it to limp through year 3, possibly a forth before being shut down. There just aren't too many successful CCG outside of the top 3, so being in the top 10 out of what 10? means not much.
