: No. The only thing remotely interesting in ODST is Buck and Dare, which is : why Bungie should have ditched the rookie and made Buck the playable : character. The other side stories were boring as shit and pointless, : especially since Dare RADIOS YOU TO TELL YOU WHERE SHE IS. Maybe if you : all regrouped, then worked together to decipher clues to find her it would : work, but it doesn't because Bungie couldn't write and resorted to a deus : ex machina. You're calling ODST's surface plot out for not being very interesting as a mystery-solving plot in and of itself. I'm wondering if you maybe aren't missing the point, which would be understandable since it's not as accessable as it should be. When people say that "it's about the journey," they aren't referring to the fascinating forensics process. That's not really what the game is about. It's kind of hard to describe briefly in words why and how it works, but I'll put it this way: it's based on Inferno, not a mystery novel.
