I'm level 30 and we've done the raid in 45 minutes on hard mode so I feel I'm qualified to respond to your thread, if you think the OP isn't. Just unlocked the fate ringer (which was the reason I was still playing) and now that I have it, I have no purpose and am not really compelled to play. Why are we 'fighting back the darkness' yet we play the same missions over and over, yet never any changes to the maps. You would think after I'd just cleared earth, Mars, the moon etc. there would not be any aliens there the next time I returned? And why are there no cities? No population density? The story hints that these planets and moons are populated by said species, yet they just stand around waiting for a guarding to fly through on their sparrow. It's not that I don't love certain aspects of the game. It's just, it does feel quite empty. I get a good feeling out it socially from talking shit with the lads while we play. But the game itself doesn't really provide this as much as it really could. I think destiny is the best canvas I've ever experienced. Gunplay, movement, enemies, they are awesome! They just need to engage us into the world more.
