Destiny as an Episodic Narrative

Joe Staten talked about how they took inspiration for Destiny's storytelling from The Wire, Lost, and Battlestar Galactica. One thing that interests me about this idea is maybe not just side quests will be "episodic." What if they have a main story that is episodic also? Each mission only has a small hint at what ends up being the main plot? This would make me feel even more like the world is huge and expansive like in MY favorite shows like Firefly, Doctor Who and Battlestar Galactica.

Yeah. For some reason, I don't feel like there is going to be one giant story, just a world full of infinite stories -some authored by Bungie, the rest by us.
