So what's happening? *Lore* *Spoils* (Destiny)

Lots of it is actually in the game now. The weekly mission requires running the current seasonal activity to do something (in this case, we’re aligning beacons to make the Blind Well work). After that is done, we go into the Ascendant Realm to rescue a Techeun. During these activities, the characters of the season will have dialogue over the comms, which is mostly just flavor, but sometimes it is more. After those missions are done, you go back to the Tower and talk to a character (Mara, this season), who will have actual voiced dialogue with the next story bit. A few times per season we get a real cutscene instead of just talking to someone. This is all accompanied by lore book pages that can provide additional context that’s directly related, or sometimes just about what might be happening elsewhere.

You can absolutely get a complete story without reading the lore books, but they are still great in their own right and provide a more complete understanding of what’s actually happening. It’s a really great balance right now, I think.
