It's a live game with strong MMO-leanings. (Destiny)

No, I’m literally saying that we are all playing he same Guardian.

I understand what you’re saying. I’m saying that’s stupid, and Bungie is smart enough to design a story and a campaign where that’s not true. Us all being the same Guardian doesn’t make sense within the mechanical structure of the game—it never has.

This stuff with the Last Wish and the Dreaming City is one small step towards bringing those two elements together. I say small step, because I very much doubt that the “story” of the raid will go forward and acknowledge that I wasn’t the first Guardian to accomplish that task when I finally get the chance to go in there.

I also recognize that to some degree those elements will always be at odds. But anything they do to bring them together and acknowledge that every player is another, different Guardian out there accomplishing things is a good step in a good direction, in my opinion.
