I agree with this entirely.Gameplay wise, all my hopes and dreams have been fulfilled.It's almost perfect.
However the story left me extremely disappointed.
There was almost barely a story at all.
All it is is
Ok space pirates on russia
shoot em
and
oh look now theres space zombies on the moon i guess ok kill those
oh look now theres space ROBOTS better go shoot those too
now lets go see the awoken who apparently nobody knows anything about even though im playing as one and there are plenty of em at the tower
ok so apparently theres this big manufacturing site of the space robots that everybody knows about but didnt feel like doing anything about??whatever lets go shoot a big robot and rip its head off
k we did that
that was easy
now lets go shoot space fat people until we get to the space robot building place and blow it up
hey we did it
cool
but wait how does blowing up the space robots stop the darkness?That was only one enemy, there are three more.What was the point of the Cabal? What even is the Darkness?Like, if thats really all it took to heal the traveller, why did we wait centuries to do it?
Ugh
Ok im done ranting now
I mean dont get me wrong i LOVE this game..
But Im a little salty about the story.

I believe the story will evolve over the (four?) games with each enemy being the main enemy per game. This game is Vex who as previously mentioned are keeping Cabal in check, so Cabal could be next. Also the Vex are throughout time and space so they can appear in all other games. The last could easily be the typical zombie apocalypse of the hive as while we destroyed their main nest we are told they are being controlled or communicated to by somewhere very far in the depths of space. However none of this makes up for the lack of story.

Exactly.Halo did a great job of leaving questions unanswered for us to wonder and think about, but the core story was there, and it was great. Destiny just has flat out nothing.

I'm no story writer but isn't that like story 101?
-
And after all of those years of devilment they really couldn't of made a better story.. Pretty disappointing...
-
I think they did, and as many would say we see remnants of what it was but sadly such a small amount it only makes us angry ;_;
-
I completely agree. Disappointed in story big time, but I do like the mechanics of the game (fighting, shooting, powers, etc.) as well as the art work.

Also don't forget that those "space robots," you exterminated were time lords who were stopping the Cabal from taking over any other planet. They were the only thing keeping them in check, but I guess you had to blow them up huh? I hope that does not bite us in the butt later. [spoiler]Bungie will bite us in the butt with that, and many other things I am sure.[/spoiler]

It would be cool if like the Cabal invaded the last city and there was a massive battle or some shit maybe they could make that a raid
-
That is what I am hoping for. Something at least, because our Ghosts took the time to explain that the Vex were the only things holding back the Cabal a few times.

Bungie pls

Couldn't agree more..
