Bungie you have a lore opertuntity with this new content - Return of the Grimorie in Game?

Lets be honest lore in thsi game could be considered laughable, at least if you only play the game(s), and with the loss of official recognition to the grimoire we are missing a notable and significat level of depth to both games. Now with this said there are still ways to find this lore online such as [url]http://destiny-grimoire.info/[/url] and [url]https://www.ishtar-collective.net/[/url] but lets be honest here this isnt exactly ideal and rather lacks the support it really should have. So with this in mind what is this great oppertunity Bungie have? Its simple, use this as a way to add the lore to the game! From what i can see there ate two options: [b]Option One, Asher Mir:[/b] As some of you may have noticed there seems to be an awfuly familiar tome in proximity of this Vex armed (and incredibly self entitled) guardian which appears to have been made up of all of the Grimoire cards and simply making this an interactable object with access to all present knowledge and lore perhaps even adding a little more to the already included flavour text for the weapons and armour as your guardina unlocks it until you have unlocked all exotics and perhaps earning you an Icon or something similar. [b]Option Two, The New Speaker:[/b] Ok this one has legs, with the demise of the speaker in teh vanilla story there is a massive and usable plot hole in that the traveler is awake and there is presently no speaker. This could be a massive boost for the lore monkeys with a quest line to initialy find the speakers shattered mask, perhaps via heroic modes of the vanilla story quests, leading you as the guardin to find a new speaker (or perhaps become the new speaker!) with you slowly reacquriing lost lore via strikes, nightfalls, raids etc. each revealing class specific variations on the speakers gear and the eventual reforging of the speakers mask before taking your place or choosing/locating the new speaker. With the speakers room now unlocked you can access the entirity of the grimorie, watch all the cutscenes again and as with the Asher Mir version of this earn icons and speker themed gear as you cross off expansion related expotics in your collection and add that lore to the grimorie. This would potentialy appeal to players on a number of levels: - Lore specific possibly even exotic loot (speakers mask/helm?) - Lore represented in game but as an optional quest line - Filling a presently missing and sizable section of the game as a whole. And whos to say where this could lead? Want to find out about the strangers ability to time travel? BOOM thats a possible questline Want more information or history on a beloved character? BOOM thats a possible questline want to find out who YOUR guardian is? oh...now THATS a possible questline. oh and one last thing, as its old content but with bounties now becoming a thing again, would nt it make a lot of sense to find out where the weapons and targets you are tracking down as part of the bounty have some form of context? just a though, what do you think?

  • I'd rather experience the story then have to go and read a while bunch of stuff that doesn't have to do with anything. Personally they've never really been good at trying to tie the lore with the actual game. Which is why I'd rather they try to improve the in game story.

        • Well if you paid attention to the forsaken reveal, there is going to be a lore section added to the in-game menus.

        • I think they should add a lore section to the new collections tab that's coming in Forsaken. Something similar to MyNameIsByf's idea. Oh wait, that's literally what they are doing.
