I saw a video about this a while back and want to know your thoughts/opinions.
If Bungie wants to actually have campaigns in the games and develop the story more in upcoming games, I think a prequel could put things into perspective. On the other hand, not everything needs to be explained in detail, this is where the grimoire could have come in quite useful, as historic documents sort of.
It's quite important that certain things are explained properly in game, especially The Traveller and The Speaker...the game has become so much about the grind (not complaining about it) and all other aspects, the majority of us have even forgotten that the Traveller exists and that it is supposed to be a focal point in the story.
Edit: Thanks for the feedback guys. A prequel would indeed be out of place but we need a proper story structure.

Maybe in 8 years time, we're level 200 or something like that and we have just come to the conclusion. We can't beat the darkness because it has become too powerful. So we time travel back to when the darkness first attacked, stop it and change the whole course of history the end.
