The Story We Were Promised

First off, let me just say I am enjoying this game. I play it as often as possible and can't wait until my wife [i]lets[/i] me do it some more. Lol. But, with that being said, as much as I'm enjoying blasting baddies, I'm really feeling uncomfortable about not fully knowing [i]why[/i]. In an age of pvp shooters and online only multiplayer, companies are making the mistake of sacrificing story, but without story, we have no purpose, and without purpose... There is no destiny. I want to know who my character was before the Ghost revived them. I want to know when he/she fell. Do they even know about the Traveler? How did they learn to fight? What makes them worthy of being a Guardian? And why aren't they asking anything and just happily killing things as complacently as possible? There are a lot of questions needing answered, and yes, I look into the Grimoire whenever I unlock cards. As a Halo fan from the beginning, I'm really hoping Bungie will save the day with deeper characters and plot lines in near future content, and personally, for promising us more than has been delivered, [i]I think that content should be free.[/i] We, as their consumers, need to let our concerns be noted and not settle for paying for the story we were promised.

  • The Story mode will be expanded upon in free content coming over the next 10 years, there is already a mission coming up soon in the latest bungie update. They set the foundation that they will build upon FREELY over time. (the two expansions are just their because activision required it) So the questions you have from the campaign will likely be answered eventually when more story missions are released. They basically just started with something to let you know "these are the basics of this universe, more to come soon." There are hints EVERYWHERE of some potentially interesting and fascinating stories that will be built upon soon. Yea, they probably should have included a LOT more to the story at launch, but at least they are freely adding more over time. Also, they made your character where you could easily assume its "you." Your character is supposed to be YOU in this universe instead of playing as some other protagonist with their own backstory which you may or may not like. You can give your guardian its own back story if you feel like it! So, in conclusion: There ARE more missions to evolve the story coming and you wont have to pay for ANY OF IT (except those two expansions but that is not ALL of the story. Just new side events I think.)
