If I may interject, I would like to express my theory. Bungie had this amazing story lined up for Destiny, and they were gonna over load the game with epic character stories, brilliant cut scenes, amazing story interactions and awesome voice actors that appeared in great sci-fi and fantasy shows (They still did the last one, which is pretty cool), but then they wanted the game rated T and in order to do so, removed all but the littlest bit of story, threw it all in little 'easter eggs' around the Destiny universe and told everyone that this was their plan all along.
I find this theory reassured by some of the content within the lore being a little more than PG (more specifically Thorn 2). Just a theory though, so I can't say for sure.

Edited by whiteLI0N: 7/3/2015 2:49:25 PMThere is a far more sinister theory that I find more plausible. As you know, activision publishes destiny and call of duty. The release times for these games was very close together, and since they are both FPS games, they compete over the same market. I believe the content was cut from the September release, because CoD had a November release. If destiny had included everything they had ready, everyone would be knee deep in raids, and uninterested in CoD. If you watch the early ViDocs of destiny, coupled with how the "DLC" areas were in the game, it's fairly obvious a lot of content was stripped. What turned into a stroke of luck for Activision, or maybe by design, CoD: Advanced Warfare had the least content of any CoD game to date. So when The Dark Below launched in December, people were already bored of CoD.
