Destiny 2 or 3 NEEDS to be a Prequel

***SPOILERS AHEAD*** Note: I don't expect most or even all of you to read everything, so don't worry. ____________________________________________ A quick synopsis of the game so far: [b]Destiny 1[/b] [b][u]Game Beginning[/u][/b] [spoiler]You are awoken in the Cosmodrome, Russia abruptly no sense of where exactly you are or where in time you stand. Your ghost tells you you aren't going to understand a lot of things. Wait - what is a ghost? As you scour the abandoned building, you find a centuries old weapon of war, and continue to find a ship while fighting through hordes of "Fallen". You get to your ship and and cannot fight their leader just yet, so your ghost beams you into the ship as you take off. Some random stranger is watching you - but who cares. Your ghost takes you to the tower, you get to look around, bah, blah, blah. You then go back and kill the Archon leader and get a warp drive, something that allows interplanetary travel. You go proceed to get a verbal middle finger from the speaker. He tells you about telling you stories instead of just telling us for a span of an eternity. You explore the other planets, encounter new enemies, meet the queen, kill an important boss for the queen, get a gate lord's eye, and kill seemingly unnecessary bosses and get to the black garden. You kill everything. You don't bother to look around or investigate anything after finally getting to the black garden because you're too too busy killing things, because killing things is fun. Oh and Vault of Glass.[/spoiler] [b]The Dark Below[/b] [spoiler]You meet Eris, find out that she has a very... disturbing... obsession... with a Hive god named Crota. Save the Earth. No explanations, just do it because you're "one of the few guardians" she can trust. You are provided no reason at all on why you are doing this or why Crota is trying to do this. You kill Crota. You don't bother to look around or investigate the whole time because you're too too busy killing things, because killing things is fun.[/spoiler] [b]House of Wolves[/b] [spoiler]Wolves rebel against the Reef and the Queen. You have to pay back the queen... for... proving yourself to her in the first place...? You meet Petra and her Eliksni Comrade Variks - perhaps the most if not only interesting character to this point. Hunt Wolves, yes? Capture Skolas, serve as the Queen's executioners in the Reef Arena. You kill Skolas. You don't bother to look around or investigate the whole time because you're too too busy killing things, because killing things is fun.[/spoiler] [b]The Taken King[/b] [spoiler]The big one. It provides [i]ACTUAL IN GAME LORE[/i]. Whoaaaah! I'm impressed Bungie, and... what's this...? [i]CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT[/i]??? So, apparently you piss off another but largely more powerful Hive god named Oryx for killing his son two DLC's ago... still no detailed explanation on why we did it, but ok. You do a bunch of mission for Eris and the vangurd to get aboard Oryx's ship. You defeat him, he "takes" himself, you kill him in his dimension. There are continuations on the House of Wolves story(should have been in HOW in the first place)... and you kill Orbiks Fel, a Fallen Machine God, and are the savior of the reef once again. (I think?) But oh wait... the Queen's dead. You actually look around for once and scan different things for some lore on this DLC... if you want more lore you still have to use site grimoire. It doesn't really matter because the beginning of the game was so dull and vague that it really doesn't matter. [/spoiler] ____________________________________________ [b]So, what needs to happen?[/b] We need a prequel to the game in order for this to make sense at where we start at Destiny. Whether you are fighting pre-golden age or after the Collapse we NEED the following information.[i] In game, not in grimoire[/i]: [u]-How did we wake up in the middle of nowhere in Destiny 1? -What was it that made the golden-age so important? -Why do the fallen want Earth? Is it because of the Traveler or is there another reason? -What event(s) caused the collapse? Or how did the collapse happen? -How were the Awoken born? -What happened in the Battle of Twilight Gap? -When did the Hive take over the moon? And why? -Who is Osiris? -Brother Vance? -Who is the speaker? -Did Banshee-1 exist yet during the golden-age? -Being able to witness the first exo consciousness somehow would be cool, through a video or even a recording. -The Ishtar Collective post-collapse. -Rise of the Golden Gun, the Last Word, Thorn and Dregen Yor, and The First Curse. -Was the Black Garden actually a place of life? -Where did the Ahamkara's come from? -The Ahamkara hunt?[/u] Yes, I know you won't be able to make a story out of everything listed here but please, please, please look into these. We NEED to know this.

  • No, as much I loved Reach, I think prequels are terrible when compared to the main story. They always have to force connections to the main story and this leave no elements of surprise.
