As fun as interviews from diehard fans can be, sometimes an interview with someone who is a little more grounded about Destiny is an even better read. I especially enjoyed this interview with Metro. Improving the way we get loot has been emphasized by both Lukes a number of times in interviews but I love the way Timmins puts it here:

And so The Taken King, we’re absolutely looking to make substantial improvements across the board, in all of these areas, including storytelling. And the player stories, we think those can be better too, and one of the ways is we want to reward players for their deeds. We want you to be earning loot out in the world by killing monsters, not necessarily saving up your money and buying something from a vendor. Saving up money and going shopping, that’s not the fantasy you have about being a space knight and saving the universe!
