Just the fact that they feel comfortable airing their dirty laundry like this gives me much more confidence in the quality of Destiny 2. This time in Destiny 1's cycle was all smoke and mirrors and marketing lines.

But it's always like this.

It's been like this since Halo 2.

There's a brave face about everything up until the release, then afterwards the story about how everything was totally messed up, barely came together at the last minute, and how it'll be better next time.

The extent to which things were messed up for both Destiny and Halo 2 has never been fully owned up to publicly.

Okay, I'm not going to tell you to shut up, but would you just write your damn book instead of commenting obliquely that you have secret knowledge. Seriously.

Again, not about the book. It's not being written to document drama. Did you read the Oral History of Halo? Lots alluded to but never fully explained. Has someone like Jamie or Paul or Marcus ever said (honestly) publicly why they departed Bungie? No? Oh well then, I guess I can say nobody has the full story, even if I might not know the answer myself.

At this point the only 'secret' knowledge I have is the true origin of the name Bungie, and who the Webmaster actually was.
