Allegiance Sides (Destiny)

The problem with the Vanguard side is Bungie didn't give players any real understanding of why they might make once choice or the other. You have to read the notes from Aunor which I'm guessing most players didn't. Since they didn't have a good reason to pick the Vanguard (really it's not even the Vanguard - it's the praxic order) they chose the option that had a voice-acted character behind it.

I went both ways, using multiple characters, but I'm not gonna lie, I was expecting to feel better about the Vanguard choice. Turns out I surprised myself; after reading all of Aunor's notes, and listening to all of Drifter's tapes... I kinda feel like Drifter made the better case. (Aunor was pretty full of herself all the way through... but the note that killed it for me was the surveillance transcript that actually took meaning from the 'explosives metaphor'. My eyes rolled so far up I could see the back of my skull.)
