We need a long cutscenes like Lord of the Rings telling all the story to this point.
We need something like the encyclopedia in Mass Effect BEFORE the Final Shape. It could be a simple kiosk, or something even better like a room in the Tower like a libary, with even a NPC.
It needs to have simple descriptions of enemys factions, and what happened since D1, etc. It needs simple wording and NOT that mysterious language used in the lore books, that you read, and read, and end up understanding nothing.
It could be made of slides, images, cinematics, simple text or narrated by a NPC, it doesn't mater, It needs to be done.
BEFORE THE FINAL SHAPE.
HURRY UP BUNGIE!!!
-
Bungie made something around with queen, but it focused more on new player info like subclasses and races compared to actual story milestones.
-
Is that not what the timeline thing is?
-
I'm sure someone at Bungie saw the BYF and Aztecross vids on the subject.
-
[quote]BEFORE THE FINAL SHAPE.[/quote] Very reasonable.
-
More importantly newer players will be lost even more with part 1 of the dark vs light (lightfalls seasons) saga being removed. They gotta do something with that legends tab. Bring back all the missions from the red war up to TFS.

While I’m sure you would prefer something in game, it’s doubtful the devs will be putting the resources necessary into making a narrative retrospective video available prior to FS given everything they have ob their plates to take it to a sufficient level to bring the player base back. That said Mynameisbyf plans on releasing such a video on his lore channel on YouTube in the run up to release, so if nothing else you can wait on that to arrive. (΄◉◞౪◟◉`)

Isn't the go-to move for most people to look on YouTube now anyway?
