Small fixes that are needed (Destiny)

1. Yup. I find this even more desirable than I would have in Halo, just due to the frequency with which I'm replaying missions at the moment. I think INSANEdrive is right that it was probably a technical decision, simply because I doubt they would have done it the way it is just as a design item (since Halo's cutscenes were typically skippable). However, I'm not sure exactly what the technical problem was, or how big of a challenge it would have been.

2. I don't know how doable this would be when playing co-op, but it would still be nice. I find myself knocked out of the menu pretty frequently. It does at least save my changes pretty consistently.

3. Again, I agree here, and unlike the other items I don't think that there's a technical hurdle, probably just a design decision. For the most part, I like Destiny's menus and HUD (yes, even the cursor), but this item does annoy me sometimes. Going back should always go back to where you were previously (see also: any well-designed Android app).
