There is a story. This guy explains it pretty well. [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/71798165/0/0]Destiny Story[/url] I've played many games without stories and they've been great. A game doesn't need to have a fantastic story to be good. There are tons of games out there like that. I look forward to see Bungie expand on the story and go more in detail on the different races and factions and to find out more about what is going on with the traveler and the darkness.
