[quote]Who decides what the "core game" is? Who is the one who decides how much story to tell?[/quote] You basically summed up why I feel like this is all conjecture. If Bungie comes out with DLCs that really don't tell much of the story, then what? Is it because they are saving it for the sequel to Destiny? Is it because they ran out of time? Is it because they suck at writing? Who knows, except for Bungie, what is complete and what is core? And, it's unlikely that they are not going to spoil the surprise (if there even is one.)

  • There will be a surprise. Bungie knows how to tell a story. They've just never had to do it like this. Telling a story with an "mmo-like" world is alot harder than doing it the way it was done in Halo. In Halo, there's no limits to the kind of story you can tell because you can go anywhere and do anything you want to do and break them into levels, but in Destiny, they have to tell the story in the "mmo-like" world they've created. Basically, you make one big level and then put the stories into it.They've talked about this before the game released as being a challenge in their GDC press conference back in March 2013. Bungie felt this game in its current state was enough to be called a full release, and I agree. I have plenty to do. I would rather be in this world than in BF4 or in COD. There's more attachment to a character. You can actually build a character, your armor choices have meaning, you have talent choices, and ALL THESE choices effect crucible as well, and then you can see each other's characters in an actual game world! Battlefield feels so limited to me now. And I know this game has so much lore. I feel the reason they made the grimoire the way they did wasn't to cut it out of the game and just throw it online, but to let everyone know after the initial launch, don't worry, we have more of a story to tell and here's a glimpse. MMOs work this way. They don't just give you the entire story up front and then move onto the next game project. They have multiple stories to tell. It's like World of Warcraft or Star Wars.
