Coming back to Destiny. Any story to catch up on? (Destiny)

My feeling on the story of Destiny is that they came up with a single 10-year story arc, and completely forgot that it also needed to be engaging moment to moment and mission to mission. It reminds me of the loot from Diablo 3. They planned out drop rates so that, 10 years on, you might still find an item you'd never found before, which of course meant that if you were playing for a couple of hours, you weren't going to find a goddamn thing.

That's how Destiny's plot is unfolding, except slower, because we're 2 years in and seriously nothing is had furthered the plot so far. We've had a couple of events, but they don't seem to have affected the world in any discernable way.

This time around, at least the weather is changing. I hope for more.

The Grimoire is very well written, and it deserves a game that lives up to the universe it has created.
