As I type this the Exo Stranger is sitting at 40% of the vote. Just illustrates how ridiculous it was when Luke Smith was claiming that they tied that loose end up......
“We have a bunch of characters who are interesting, but the Exo Stranger is one that always makes me chuckle a little bit. Because I feel that’s one character where we actually wrapped up the arc. She gave you a sweet gun and then dissolved, presumably off to do something else. So I feel like, of all our characters we’ve introduced and exited, we actually exited her effectively.”

Well they did. Her whole character in D1 was just a mish-mash of the original. However, they did tie her off. The cards for her, her dialogue and the nature of the disaster we averted all spell it out. She was from another timeline, to use the current lores rationale. In her time the Black Heart wasn’t stopped. So after we stop ours, she has very little to offer us, since she doesn’t know what’s going to happen. The mystery of where she comes from isn’t all that it’s cracked up to.

Nope. The Exo Stranger story arc was not wrapped up nor effectively exited.

Don't really find the Exo stranger really interesting. Character always felt out of place for me.. Would rather have a season dedicated to Uldren. (Which I think will happen next, since you could see this as a Titan season, last one was a warlock (ikora with the undying mind) season, so I think we get a more hunter focussed one next)

I can see that happening. Bungie feel they've 'completed' the Stranger story arc and there's definitely a lot more to happen with Uldren.

Yea, definitely. I could possible see something with the Stranger in the future (perhaps D3), but not now. There is no reason to go back to that character, since we already have Uldren, Mara, Toland, Drifter, Nine and go on who play larger roles in the 'main' storyline against the darkness and savathun. Talking about savathun, I want to kill that Taken Queen. Forsaken has been too long, they should start to finish up the story with her.
