[b]TIMELINE:[/b]
Pre-GoldenAge, Traveler Discovery, Golden Age, Darkness Discovery, The Collapse, the after effects (Forming the Consensus, Building the City, ect.), Destiny I, The Future/Sequels.
Being an Awoken breaks the game. I know your attention span is about 10 minutes #Destiny, so I'll keep it brief.
In game lore fact: Your character died before the Traveler Discovery. This is implied and stated through quotes and the story (or lack thereof).
In game lore fact: The Awoken were created by the Collapse, after they tried to escape into space. This is stated by grimoire, promotions for the game, and many other things.
Rationalized Opinion: Your character, an Awoken who can channel the Travelers light, should not exist because the Awoken did not exist until after the Collapse. Think about it. Your character has to be "Pre-GoldenAge" and the Collapse does not occur until later down the timeline.
So, Bungie, you screwed up. Now what? We get it, Staten leaving leaves the story much to be desired. The one thing you should not do is ignore this.
Plz Leik, Folo, Rate, Subscribe, Reblog, Sacrifice to Satan, ect.
[i]So, #Destiny, what do you think of this? Discuss.[/i]

My favorite is when your Awoken literally says to your Ghost "What's an Awoken?" My mind just filled with disappointment. Not the first game to overlook little things like that (even if I think it's not really a little thing at all, but quite an important thing) and certainly not the last. But when an Awoken asks what an Awoken is, it's a bit frustrating. Reminds me of how Dragon Age had this whole thing going on about how blood mages were shunned, feared and hunted, but if your hero played as one, no one noticed at all.
