Extra Credits beats the Destiny story dead horse. (Destiny)

I always liked the flavor text for patrol missions — the strings that pop up if you go into nav mode after picking up a beacon. We crammed some good puns and worldbuilding spice into a really tiny space.

You guys did really well there. I still mess up some names in Destiny, but I learned a huge number of patrol missions by heart. Southside holding, high and dry, etc. They're one of the places Destiny is quirky, and it really endears it to the player.

It turns into a meta game for me and my friends sometimes. We go into patrol and try to guess the mission. Like, if we see a VIP in mothyards:

"Come onnnnnnn four arms good two arms better!"
"Nope! Gonna be shanks for the memories!"

*Shanks for the memories*

"WOO!"
