Also a sub-note to the people who don't like the cards as a source of story. Not promoting the system or agreeing with it here. Just my thoughts on it. In the game you wake up after hundreds of years being dead "you're going to see some things you won't understand". So in that situation, in real life, you wouldn't have a clear history book to read from to find out what happened. Most records were lost with the collapse. You pick up pieces (g-cards) here and there in your travels that provide a small portion of history. The point of if all being accessed through the app and online is to give the feel of a virtual database where you can also connect with other gaurdians who are scattered everywhere (forums). In that type of future you would think a technology of that sort would exist anyway though directly expressed in the game. I, personally, don't like having to use my phone to read little quips of history that I have to piece together myself. I think there should definitely be a library/archive IN-GAME to visit. There should be a custodian there that will, not unlike the cryptarch, take the cards you have found/earned and piece then together for you and give you an in-game book to read that will explain a particular point in time, the history of a location, or an actual layout of how the battle of the twilight gap went. And they will be archived as such (ex. Title: The History of The Vault of Glass). There could be, maybe not a quest but, at least something that says, "collect 50 grimwoire from killing fallen vandals in the cosmodrome.". Or, "collect all cards from the crota's end raid". To get each book. That way people have more to play for rather than just grinding for gear. You will be grinding for knowledge and actual story. Just my thoughts. Sorry it went a little long for those of who don't read long posts. But if you do read then I think you'll like my idea if you stick around.

  • I like your idea of a quest involving the cards that would be turned in to a complete record that you can read. There is just so much awesome story and lore that many people don't even know about because they never read the cards on the app. Thank you for making great points and adding to this topic. Your input is invaluable 👍

  • Also along with that, we have these titles we have earned right before the release of ttk. I was the oracle seeker. My friend got the doom bringer. Other friends got other titles like unbeatable and stuff. Those should be included in-game where your player card is. And it's not something you can choose it just takes your highest rated titles and throws it in. If you got doom bringer for doing "xyz" and you did that 2000 times that's your highest rated one. If you did something else more that warranted something else you get whatever that was. And the npcs call you that instead of "gaurdians, hunter, warlock ,or titan" it would give you more of a sense of being a great gaurdian like Osiris or toland.

  • It's been on my mind for a while I just never found a thread that could help me put it into better words. Hopefully they see it and make something happen.
