Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.
The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.
Joseph Staten: We feel responsible for not only telling an isolated story but for building a universe that at some point, is gonna become more the fans than ours, it's gonna take a life of its own. ~ ViDoc
Judging by this quote, sooner or later Bungie will pass the torch to the fans, allowing them to continue telling the story of Destiny, but what about its past? Will there be Novels, Graphic Novels, Short Movies, etc, tied to the fiction, that broaden the lore/build the world, or will the entire story be isolated within the games? As a franchise, will Destiny follow the same style as Halo?
As of now there has only been a kind of a vague viral going on now and then on this site; a match lights up here and there, but is quickly extinguished by the imposing darkness, something I suspect will continue for a while. So we know that Viral storytelling is a part of Destiny; although more like a way of revealing bits and pieces of what it is about, maybe even just in a meta level(?).
What do you think? How would you structure Destiny as a franchise? What are your hopes?
