They promised in the beginning that our characters would carry over into the next game, as part of the ten year plan. That said I believed them, in the beginning. Given bungie's tendencies for lying to our faces, I'm not so sure now! I do say this, if they do pull that crap with destiny 2, then I'm done!!! I didn't put 2 years work and thousands of hours into my characters to start them over, and loose all my weapons and armor!!!!! Bungie needs to keep their word on this, they have lied to us enough!!!!! People who want a fresh start, can delete their guardians and start over, but it shouldn't be forced on the rest of us!!!!!
