Bungie can now retcon or hand wave the original material away. There goes what made D1 interesting.

Perhaps his heart is in the right place, and he can only do so much, but can Bungie pull through? Will the higher ups call more bad shots? MTX got abused. How will the writing and lore be treated?
Edit 2: Stohl apologizes but doesn’t clarify. More vagueness. Also, despite all the likes, Bungie mods have buried this post to hide the flack they’re getting. Going to repost this.

Chances of brother Vance coming out as a homosexual, and Osiris refusing to come back so he could avoid his sexual advances?

The only things I’m sad to see not be part of the story is the book of sorrows, thorn and last ward, and SIVA. Just a few stories that they should’ve kept.

I never knew lore meant folk.....lore......until I did...... [spoiler]explain how the dreams of the alpha lupi could ever possibly have been reality?[/spoiler]

2 AntwortenI'm a bit lost as to the meaning of this. Why is folklore different to lore? What exactly do they mean by this?

9 AntwortenLol Have you read the grimoire? Its very folkloric in nature. Idk if you're new here, but the grimoire has never been outright clear in its meanings and has always been ambiguous. Why do you think there are so many speculative videos around the grimoire? You guys are grabbing for straws again.

How do we know any lore? What's real? Aren't we just running endless simulations created by bung... oops! I mean the vex?

4 AntwortenCreating a way for the writers to, potentially, write their way out of the mess that D1's story became is a good thing.

Uggh bungie 😑😑

2 AntwortenIn and of itself this isn’t the end of the world... ...but Bungie are trying to fix a currently bad relationship between them and their players. They don’t need silly comments that run the risk of igniting the lore community, many of whom feel passionately about this matter. Bungie have a thousand different things they could be talking to us about right now. Things that matter and that move us forward in terms of player engagement. Telling us the lore isn’t canon is NOT one of those things...

3 AntwortenThis just confirms what I already suspected, that they have absolutely nobody capable of writing anything as in depth and fleshed out as Joe. I would pay good money for Joe to write the original story he had in mind in novella form.

4 AntwortenLooking at the comments it seems people have no idea how to be civil on the internet. So the rude and disrespectful posts that are common here are now being aimed at the Marvel comic writer... why am I not surprised. Allow that shit to happen here and people start to think that's how you actually talk to a person in real life on their twitter feed smh What is wrong with this: [quote]grimoire is considered folklore, even to the inhabitants of the universe: true as far as they & we know![/quote] Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. When reading the grimoire it sounded like folklore to me anyway. Why are people crying about this statement...?

Bungo is a disaster.

2 AntwortenLet's be honest with ourselfs for one min. How did you not see this coming. During the first Iron Banner week when I went to see ol salad man and it still said LAST Surviving member of the iron lords I knew Bungie had lost grip of the story. Now I saw them fixing this a different way. With curse of Osirus being about the Vex I thought we were about to erase our own D1 story so that D2s shit show of a game could make sense agian. You can stop here the rest is just how I think it makes sense to do this. So you start the game you're not in the same ship as D1 Why? Can't speak Why? Your abilities don't work the same as they did (ex: no self rez) Why? Sparrows no longer have horns Why? I may be missing a few but, they answer to all the why's is.....wait for it..........TIME TRAVEL!!! We screwed everything up, not Bungie or Activision. My idea is after you time travel it lets you now replay the campaign simulating that you are stuck in a time loop forced to the same things over and over agian (see that would even explain why grind) for all eternity.

4 AntwortenIt's Reach all over again. With one slight difference. REACH WAS A GOOD GAME AND DIDN'T SUCK LIKE D2. Reach expanded on Halo, not remove the features of the previous games.
