Why wasn't Baels backstory shown at some point?

I genuinely have no clue as to why this wasn't shown within the campaign. The lore books (which I won't spoil but people should definitely read) are amazing and should 100% have been included in some capacity as a cutscene. Lore books are great, but this feels worse than when you killed Sagira off in a blog post. The story is amazing in this book. His voice actor is phenomenal and honestly it would have made an already cool character incredibly more relatable. So many people just don't read those and will assume he's a Kylo Ren copy paste with not much else to him (and yeah I know they're extremely similar but this is why the cutscenes are needed instead of a lore book entry) I assume it's money reasons (stupid I know), but I'd much more prefer less lawless frontier fetch quests and interacting with npcs that are incredibly forgettable.

  • Yeah apparently I brought that to someone's attention and they provided me an article that bungie announced that they will have him return and other pieces of content so most likely we might get a backstory. Initially I made an argument that we never knew what happened to him and that it was beyond ridiculous that we are The Guardian we should have fought him with a lightsaber that kind of experience would have brought back more players. I think it's idiotic that we have to look up an article to find out what happened to him in his plans in the future when bungie very well know they should have done a cutscene to show us that's the point of cutscenes good way to show us the future of content ex 2017 d2...
