Today I was riding in the car with my sister (driving) and a guy I didn't know. And the guy I had never met didn't seem to be all to friendly in general. He hadn't said a word to me, and didn't seem all to interested in talking to me either. But after he pulled out his phone to check something that changed. He went back to the home screen of his phone before locking it and I noticed the destiny companion app on the homescreen. I said something about it and he whipped his head around with a huge grin and just said yea. Through the rest of the car ride we talked about destiny and the upcoming Taken King DLC, Consoles and whatever else related. Destiny really makes friends. I haven't ever met another guardian that was just really unpleasant to be around, in game and out. My better friends online are all people I've met in Destiny. This game makes friends.

I met a guy on destiny who one of my friends had found on LFG for vault of glass, and I became good friends with him. It turned out that he knew someone who went to my school and it ended up that he lived a few towns over. Sadly this story doesn't have a happy ending, as he had many problems at home, I even experienced some of it while he was in a party we me and some other guys. I played with him one night, may 27, and he had his Ps4 controllers taken away because of some problems, and he was using his phone to share play with us and to chat in a party. Nothing too strange really, but that was the last night I talked to him. He was gone in the morning, the troubles overwhelmed him and he thought he had only one way out of it. I found out the day after that, and when I heard the news I couldn't believe it. These guys I've met through destiny have become amazing friends, and it was that day that I realized it. This community really is great.
