I'm not really digging the fresh start idea either. If our characters' stories don't continue until we see the end of this war against the Darkness that they've contributed so much towards, I'm going to be severely disappointed. Furthermore, each enemy we've fought has been as big or bigger of a threat than the last. It's the natural and logical escalation of power needed to keep the story moving forward and to keep up with Guardians' increasingly amazing list of accomplishments. We are becoming legends. So, we get to Destiny 2 and the threat is as big or bigger than ever. So what? Are you telling me that some random, fresh Guardian/Mary Sue is going to come out nowhere with no accomplishments and defeat them? What about our Guardians? Did they just magically go away? They can't handle this threat, but some other random can? What if each Halo had a different Chief? This war isn't over yet. We've made it this far. I want to see it to the end.
