Likewise. (Destiny)

Don't get me wrong, I'm on board with what we know they're adding. New location, new subclasses, new raid... All good stuff.

What if really like to know, though, is will the Taken King bring anything "new" to the Destiny experience, or is it going to be the same formula, just "more".

Will we have a stronger focus on narrative?

Will we have new dialog from existing characters? New interactions?

Will we have new cutscenes?

Or, will we get a couple new vendors who talk at us while we play through the new story missions, without a peep from Ghost, the Speaker, the other guardians of the Vanguard, or even our own guardian?

I guess I'm hoping for more, but not really expecting it. I love Destiny. More content to play with friends is a great thing. But 2 expansions later, the game still feels largely incomplete to me. I would love to see The Taken King address some of Destiny's weaknesses.
