Y'know, I can't help but think interest in space exploration has grown exponentially compared to what it was just a few years ago. Destiny isn't just a game that happens to be set in space, but is instead a game whose setting and history relies heavily on that aspect.
Good Stuff.
Haha, simultaneous deletes. :)
Edit: Subject Line.

I'm a girl. I don't know if I'm any good though.
Yeah, I was going to yield to you but I guess we both decided to fall on our swords. Let's just pretend it didn't happen. No one will notice.
Too Late I'd Say :)

Did you actually say never, though?

Good stuff, but this line stopped me.
Despite no mention of the moon landing anniversary from Bungie, the timing of the beta could hardly be considered a coincidence ...
I kind of think it was a coincidence. A cool one, but still a coincidence.

You mean, besides the Beta stats jab?

What they would have thought about their names finally reaching the moon by being sewn into the trousers of a videogame avatar is perhaps difficult to judge, but someone out there thinks it is a fitting tribute. Perhaps in a time when those names are all but forgotten, it is.
Loved this.
