I mentioned this awhile back (Destiny)

by Revenant1988 , How do I forum?, Wednesday, October 29, 2014, 08:53 (3460 days ago) @ Monochron

When I first got the Thorn bounty, I had two reactions as I progressed through it.

#1) This bounty is a terrible fetch quest, and is making me do things I don't enjoy in the game to complete it.

#2) Holy shit, this bounty has a story attached to it, and even though it's text based, I want to know more! Where was this stuff in the main game??

^^It got even better when I unlocked all the Thorn cards- there's a cool back story to the gun and it's user, but I don't want to spoil it. But that coolness ran dry pretty fast because I could only experience it through the website, and it reminded me of how lacking the rest of the game's narrative is.

Shame!

If they DO make more things LIKE the Thorn bounty, but IMPLEMENT it differently, I think it could go over very well, or how it should have been done from the start.
