What was planned? (Destiny)

The story was planned? or Not including it in game was planned?

Is the second option the default position for most people? If anyone takes this position: how certain are you that it is the case? 51/49? 60/40?

The Grimstuff feels like story notes, background world building. I think that the in-game story would be a separate thing that would be coloured by the world background. They could be developed in parallel. You might want to wait until you had sorted out the world for a while before you start the game story. Either way you could have grimstuff without a story and you don't need a PLAN for that to happen - it's just what you would expect to happen naturally. The expectation being that you would get round to the story well before launch.

If Joe leaves then you have a hole to fill. Luke is a story-guy but he is busy on the Raids. Nevertheless he could get the story dumped on him. So he has two vital, full time, jobs and limited time to do both. In those circumstances I could understand, I haven't got the time to explain why I haven't got the time...

Those words could be seen as unedited stream of consciousness. And I think that luke does tend to say what he is thinking without major edits or restrictions.
