I think we can all agree that in-game story right now is sadly lacking. But to think there will never be a continuation to the story? I don't believe that. Despite the fact we can interact with so little story right [I]now[/I], it's clear that Bungie set the stage for a much larger story to fall in place. It's not a problem of "there is no story," but a problem of "Bungie only gave us a few pages to read out of a whole book."
