I love Destiny but there is no way in hell I could ever say that the story is more developed and fleshed out than the Halo Franchise (given it is the franchise not just the single game as is Destiny) but you can't tell me that the story actually is complete in any way in Destiny. Even for the limited short story that is in Destiny it really feels empty. Reading the Grimoire helps but that's not really the game now is it? Destiny, while having more variety and enjoyable replay-ability, still feels empty in meaningful substance.
