Allright Bungie, someone trumped your entire game's presentation of plot, narrative, and 500 million dollar budget using only Windows Movie Maker. Your move.
Triple. A. Title.
Edit #1- Wow I got a ton of feedback from posting this. Glad to see there are so many guardians out there still voicing their opinions. Also, on a side note, I just want to make it clear that I did not create this video.
Lets hope threads like this may change Bungie's strategies for story telling in the future. Although the concept of the Grimoire is a great ADDITION to a story, and unclear narratives can sometimes lead to community driven story telling, I cannot help but feel that the lack of a cohesive story in Destiny is a result of poor planning, budget cuts, or laziness on Bungie's side.
Thanks again for the feedback guardians, keep it coming, and keep your light safe.
Edit #2- Broke 900, soon to be 1000! Lets keep the conversation rolling. Also I would like to address one point.
This video does indeed use information presented in the Grimoire cards. However, the praise I am giving is directed at the way this narrative is PRESENTED by the creator of the video. I feel that the way this information was organized in the video is much more effective than any way it was presented by Bungie themselves. Time and effort was put into the creation of this video to make sure the player understood lore, actual events in game, as well as symbology related to the story that is told. This, in my opinion, seems like a much more caring way to present a narrative.

Wow. Just....wow.

This is great. If only bungie had given us something as simple yet effective as this. Awesome work. Any chance of a Vault of Glass one?
-
I liked the Dark Below trailer. Crota standing in defiance with many many glowing eyes behind him. Trouble is, there's only a fraction of enemy presence in the actual raid...it coulda been so much more. But I'm going to continue playing regardless ;)
-
That was pretty cool

Great

It'd be nice if we could just have like a grimoire kiosk or something in tower that let us watch this crap in tower.
-
Absolutely brilliant!!! I have just learned more about this game in 15 mins than in 400 hours playing. I actually can't wait to do the Crota's raid again it gives it purpose. bungie can only takes this in two ways, learn from or just be completely embarrassed by the fact that a fan has been able to tell THEIR story in a way that they could not even think of. A must watch!
-
Nice! Why on earth didn't bungie do the same thing? Either lazy of they just ran out of time.
-
Hope he makes one about Atheon.
-
and yet it has no solid mechanics,no gameplay,no servers. and its lead story designer didn't quit partially through the project to have activision rush an unfinished product
-
Terramantis is awesome if you're looking for lore videos. He covered dark souls a lot in the past, too
-
-
Perfect work. I realy love this video. More lore in this video then in the game and DLC together.
-
I try not to believe it but the OP is right...and this "fan" was never paid.

1 Replythis guy made me look so BADASS! Kudos to you!

Bungie, hire this man!

Edited by Sir Simon Mally: 2/5/2015 9:51:31 AMPuts Bungie's effort of story dialogue to shame. 'I haven't even got time to explain why I haven't got time to explain'!!!!

Destiny is a joke

Edited by Black Kraken R: 2/5/2015 11:48:51 AMOmg this is the first time i am actually interested on destiny story, we have an empty body of a game and this guy just show us how interested this game can be, with just a decent narrative that make us care and play the fantasy of a mighty guardian. GOOD JOB. And bungie you should be ashamed that none of your "professional and costly writers" could gives us anything close or interesting to care about this game and keep playing , no just the grinding of every tuesday and some crucible that make you bored for a full week because there is nothing else in this game, Just a large , beautiful, but depressing empty world , just that feeling when someone do patrol missions and you realize that you are the only one in on a huge zone , with not even enemies, just that feeling that you are in a dead world. I probablly will feel so embarrased just to show, "here is my 500m game proyect", that just make me think two things , was never a 500 million budget or someone took a big portion of that budget for himself. Just my opinions

3 RepliesUsing only Windows Movie Maker and 90% of the game

15 RepliesI still don't understand why people care so much about the story. I would much rather them spend their time on balancing, fixing glitches, designing raids rather than improving the storytelling. Cutscenes are cute and all but after the first couple of times seeing it, I just want to be able to skip past it.
-
Lol bungie you really are a terrible developer.
-
someone should stick this to a stick and whip the responsible persons ass withit.. until they HIRE this guy and give him the founds to actually TELL the story of Destiny IN GAME..
-
How hard would it have been to do this properly from bungie? A guy with some skills in a dark dingy room did this on his own, why couldn't a team at bungie have got together with all the funds and tech & done it? I want the story so far a cinematic, a recap on the story from bungie an official clip or even stills montage explaining the story. So we don't have to read the jigsaw Grimoire cards...
-
Well done, maybe bungie will pick you up to fix their stuff lol.
