I always said that the grimoire cards, even in the beta, should have been either done as small videos or as small playable levels. From my website on the subject: [b]Grimoire[/b] Not being able to see that in game is crazy! Why do I need to go to “bungie.net” to view my stats, total kills and read the lore? Bungie if you really wanted Grimoire cards to be unique and fun and a way to learn the history then why not use the technology you have to hand and make some videos that show the story? That wouldn’t be too difficult and stuff like Ares One you have already made and shown. But wouldn’t it have been amazing to have been a member of that 3 person crew, and you got us to walk to the Traveler, look at the landscape etc. Then quickly move on 100 years to show us exploring Venus and the first run in with the Vex, again a small playable walk-through, nothing fancy, no need to kill enemies, just interact with the story and maybe help in some way. Again another 100 years later we are shown as part of some team who get caught up in a fire fight and you are battling your way through a large horde of the Hive. You attempt to escape in your ship but it gets shot down entering Earths orbit and you are lost! Cut then to the opening scene of the actual game, the Ghost was looking for us because we had been involved in a lot of the history, we play a pivotal role, and now that he has the power to resurrect he wants to bring us back to continue the fight! As the Traveler has extended human life span this can easily be explained as being the same person, giving your character a back story and some history. Some may say that would then mean everyone shares the same back story, but we all do anyway, we all got resurrected in the same traffic jam with no explanation!
