A legit responce (Destiny)

I think it's obvious that more story was originally intended to be told in the game (especially in year one), but I really hope all the narrative seeds planted from the start take root and grow into something that blows our minds in year 10.

My thoughts when I finished vanilla Destiny: "Ok, so Bungie didn't tell me a great story, but they really set up an intriguing universe. That felt more like reading a prolog than the ending of the first book in a series."

I wanted to feel like I reached the ending of the first book, instead I got the setup for some great stories in the future. I'm not complaining here. Think of it like this, I knew I was getting desert, I was hoping to be served cheesecake, however they served ice cream. Both are enjoyable, cheesecake is better, but ice cream is still a good experience.

After throwing out the book, Bungie was still able to rescue the universe and introduce us to it. I feel like that was a pretty decent accomplishment on Bungie's part (but gosh darn it, I still wanted the book ;-) ).
