I'm right there with you (Destiny)

Agreed. Or at least I hope you're right! :)

When I think of Destiny and its missions I picture something that trends towards Borderlands but with a lot of the silliness removed, with the scale made bigger, with the combat improved, and with the missions seeming more "official." You're not a bounty hunter freelancer in Destiny, you're (as I imagine it at least) part of a part military, part exploration, part scientific structure based in the city.

But then I think of the Queen of the Reef, The Crow, and the latest mention of dignitaries and wonder if maybe I'm imagining Desinty's universe a bit too small. Already I get the feeling that both the Cabal and Fallen are intelligent and even worth talking to if any of them would stop shooting at us. The Vex seem almost certain to have interesting stories to tell, what with their time traveling and the way Bungie describes them as not clean and shiny off the assembly line, but a bit rusted and a bit beat up. Even the Hive seem very curious. Undead(?) space zombies traveling in great sarcophagus like starships perhaps fleeing from The Darkness or perhaps even being sent by it.

I'll be excited if all Destiny is is a highly connected scifi shooter like Halo, but I think I'll be even more excited to find out that it's something even bigger and grander!
