Shouldn't have to step away from the game to learn about the games story. It's like going to see a movie with a bunch of characters basically standing around and then at the end of the movie they tell you to go read the cards on the Internet that explain the story to you

Not really. It's like watching the Harry Potter movies compared to reading the books. The plot is still in the game but the really good details need to be read, and if you've read the cards you understand why it wasn't in the game.

First of all your comparison between Harry Potter movies and books is void in this topic. The Harry Potter books and movies both had cohesive story telling, destiny does not. Eternal matter from any source or form is to enrich the story, not tell it. A great example of this is the halo novel series; except for the last few books when they went off into the deep end.

The Halo novels are a great show of how to really deeply grow an EU, and I hope they make Destiny books, but the game does have a full story. The Harry Potter comparison is that Destiny leaves out some of the small details in the game like the social structure of the Fallen because it would make the game drag on and be annoying to those that don't care. The cards fill those places in the way the Harry Potter books have all the details that the movies left out. I don't know which Halo books you're talking about but I'm going to assume the Traviss books because those were mistakes and an example of a writer that doesn't respect a series of great books.
