Destiny is pretty disappointing lore wise in game but the Grimoire is pretty solid stuff http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire

Some stuff is referenced in TTK (Eris mentions they'll lose you like Eriana, a Guardian in the Fireteam that tried to kill Crota) and there is a mission centered around Praedyth, Tolands journal is brought up, but it feels very limited in comparison to the Grimoire.

Better storytelling than Man of Steel

Destiny. The setting's quite interesting, and the enemy factions are fascinating. It's a goddamn shame all of the actual story and lore was stuffed into cards I have to read on the internet, instead of being put into the game one way or the other.
I wanna know what the huge threat back at the Cabal homeworld is.
I wanna delve deeper into the struggle for survival the Eliksni suffer on a daily basis, I want to know more about their history and what they were like before the became 'the Fallen'. I wanna how their hierarchy, civilization and daily lives in general worked before shit hit the fan.
I want to see what the Vex are truly capable of with their powers and unified hivemind-like thoughts. The game does no justice to them in that regard.
I wanna see what the process of a Wizard draining light from a Guardian is like.
I want to know more about Rasputin, how he thinks, how he operates, etc.

There's so much shit to explore and expand upon, and Bungie isn't doing anything with it. It frustrates me, because there's just so much unused potential!

If anything, Eris and other folks mentioning stuff that is only explained in the grimoire is awful - they may as well just not mention them in the first place. The people who don't read the grimoire are just going to feel even more confused when the characters start speaking about things that are only explained outside of the game in some silly cards.

Don't get me wrong, the grimoire cards are facinating to read (especially the Book of Sorrows), but they need to put that in the actual game. At the very least open a Library in the Speaker's quarters where the player can read that stuff.
