"A World With Hope"

Bungie has always referred to the world of Destiny as [i]"A world with hope."[/i] They've stated that while yes, The City is the final bastion of humanity, and that so much has been lost, they didn't want the player to feel hopeless nor have the game feel too depressing. I created this thread to ponder with my fellow Guardians the phrase, "[i]A World with Hope."[/i] What do you all think this means for Destiny as a game? Perhaps from a gameplay and narrative perspective? Bungie, if you are ready to clarify, what does this mean for the game's story progression, the feel of the solar system, the feel of our Guardians? Maybe even the music of Destiny? For me, I've always taken the phrase, "A world with hope" to carry the same feeling as The Lord of the Rings series, where darkness had fallen on man, but there was always hope throughout it all. In the movies, the soundtrack would introduce themes by playing darker tunes while following up with lighter-hearted pieces such as "Concerning Hobbits," or "The Return of the King" to perfectly bring the feeling of triumph and victory home at the end. If it is anything like that, color me excited. What do you guys think?

  • I think this means that Destiny can be whatever you want it to be. It may start out strange and unfamiliar, but as you play it, you get to form your own playstyle, your own Destiny. You get to do what you want to do, see what you want to see, and eventually create a story you can proudly call your own. At least, that's the world of hope we'll live in until the game comes out.
