Thoughts From Someone Who Wasn't That Excited (Destiny)

This brings up something else for me - there is no sense of the end of the world in Destiny - there's no seedy club, there's no alcohol, there's no substance abuse, no sex. It is beautiful and sanitised and my warlock's the only one dancing on a table.

The world has already ended, and the Guardians are all resurrected corpses.

In the Halo universe, humanity had been at war with a superior alien species for four decades, and in Halo 3 was forced back onto its own homeworld, which was then invaded. No seedy clubs, no alcohol, no substance abuse, and no sex, just Nathan Fillion wondering why Tricia Helfer dumped him.
