And that's really a huge issue that I have with this. The bulk of story for Destiny is in the grimoire cards, in press releases, in interviews with the developers, and just is fundamentally not an actual part of what's in the game. I love that there's all of this mythos being conceived of, but it needs to be in the game!

I've said before that I don't think that the problem is so much that they aren't in the game, but there isn't enough in the game for these to be the cool extras that they should be. And I'd be very proud to have written them.

What we do know is that some guy is beaming with pride at having delivered a terrible script. And we know that I like to make fun of that guy.

You do. I don't. Dave Mongan left Bungie in March. Did he even see the final cut? I doubt it. We know they were recording new material after the beta.

EDIT: BTW, he's now a senior narrative designer at Microsoft.
