I am slightly worried... (Destiny)

I like Forge, but not at the expense of a more focused game.

I'm with you on this.

Theater mode, however, is a different matter.

Yes, between the two, I think Theater is more important.

I think we can all agree on that.

You thought wrong. Forge adds content, INFINITE content, while Theater simply allows you another method of digesting existing content. I accept that certain people may find Theater more important to their personal method of consumption, but I can't see how someone can say Forge is less important overall.

No forge would be a great loss, I agree--especially for map-building geniuses such as yourself. They both can add infinite content, BTW. I was speaking more to Paddy's point about a more focused game. Forge might not fit into the content that they have planned for launch. Custom maps don't fit as neatly into the shared-world paradigm as well as they did for the Halo series.

Theater mode, on the hand, doesn't affect gameplay, but as I've said many times during the 343 theater mode downgrade, it serves as a perpetual promotion machine for the game. Also, there are probably more aspiring filmmakers and photographers than architects.
