The problem most people seem to be having with game's storytelling value; is that the game's missions don't seem to contain a whole lot in the way of segues from one activity to the next and how they are delivered to the player fail to engage and immerse. In most story driven action games you have some sort of plot reveal through an in between mission character interaction. There is no such device present in this game. Instead of direct interactions with the Tower's Non player denizens, we are treated to a loading screen with ofttimes dryly delivered dialogue that creates a disconnect between the player and his or her Guardian-persona and makes it difficult to become immersed in an otherwise lore rich universe. Pair this with the fact that these 'telegraphed' dialogue segments seem to always take place during the travel animations that serve as a distraction during loading times and it's easy to see why people are having a hard time deciphering a plot. Why the heck would the Guardian already be on their way to the moon BEFORE knowing there is anything there needing their attention? This would work if all the missions were offered in the same manner as the scouting errands; but sadly they are not. If the goal is to have the player see Destiny's universe and story through the eyes of the Guardian then the absence of direct and personal character interaction defeats this aim soundly...
