ITT: Cody undercuts his central argument against Destiny
"Players spend so long [playing]...for new gear, new guns, and upgrades."
Disagree. I don't care about "stuff." I care about story.
Personal motivation is personal. I mean, if I had to spend resources and time to creep through a sewer just to get a bit of color from a computer, I'd be a little annoyed.
Either way, the point isn't that some people will do stuff just to get more story detail; those don't need any special design as a compelling world and good story is enough. For those that don't play for story, or maybe aren't committed to the world and story yet, this is a great way to draw them in.
