This is that point...

Years from now, I will go back and look at the start of DBO and wonder how I got so sucked in. So to future me: this post was the start of it.
I was away from HBO since Reach came out, but now I've been lurking for the couple of days since the unveiling... absorbing the sliced nuggets of info we've been presented.
This post marked a turning point, though.
I chuckled a bit, and realized that I was actually, genuinely interested in picking apart the pre-release details of a new Bungie universe. Not just keeping tabs on others' developments, but contributing to the circus. It's been a while.

I'm pretty pumped.

Haha, I'm right there with you. I've been away for a while but I've always had a great experience being part of the Bungie community during the buildup to something new. It's as if the game itself is just a small part of the vast theme park we build around it (in a good way). Exciting times.
