Destiny is at its best when it goes full horror: Pressage, The Whisper, Haunted Forest, the Moon Underdark, that Shadowkeep ending cutscene Edit: BROTHER THE SEASON OF THE WITCH don't forget that one also
@@lucasfronza3079 don't forget all those "run away" missions where there's a horror coming after you and you have no chance against them at your current strength so you got no option other than to run such as the crota one in destiny 1 where Eris morn goes something like, crotas soul will eat up your light, you must run... and then her comms cut off because of crotas interference if you've played Warframe before and have done the Harrow quest line something like that would be cool too
The original story from d1 was that Humanity was just about ready to leave Sol and expand to other systems but the Witness came and stopped that. With the witness gone this codename Frontiers has to mean we're going to leave the solar system, right?
This is 100% a d3 tease. D2 will end with Frontiers, opening the way for d3, a clean slate in a whole new solar system. Get excited boys. For anyone saying d3 won't happen, bungie is not about to give us an entirely new solar system in d2, that's not even in the realm of happening, a new solar system would need 4 planets minimum to feel that excitement of something new. D3 is coming.
I don't know why my comment was deleted, let's try again lol. Edit: it wasn't deleted, just didn't show up straight away. This is not cut content if that's what you're trying to communicate. This is true for Destiny's story today. Golden Age humanity were preparing for large scale colonies outside of Sol just before the Collapse, the ship that birthed Neomuna being a notable example of one of them. And they were already capable of travelling to other galaxies and systems well before this too, there are examples of people who tried to escape to Ross 128b when the Collapse hit. A planet from a different star system that already had people living there. Although, it appears that they didn't really have large colonies or settlements at the time, it was all very small scale despite having the technological capability. Late Golden Age ships were pretty much all capable of making the journey and we're capable of it for a while, even smaller ships were.
Hopefully Frontiers means we're going outside of Sol, Bungie has mentioned the Andromeda galaxy in different item sets and we've got a couple alien homeworlds to head out to
Next thing we know is that we'll have something ingame related to cooking. Probably cooking with Drifter for the random things we can consume. Vex milk cookies anyone?
@@Vengeanze Bruh what?! 😂 They put pronouns on a vidoc and man said, "It's too woke, this one video that has no effect to the game totally ruined my experience, stupid woke culture" 😂😭 Like do you even hear yourself??

@@raekwonchambers2297 there is no way we get a new subclass in an episode. They will save it for an expansion or a new game to monetize it with a bigger release. Additionally, we literally already have void and Devour. There’s no need for any sort of leeching health subclass.

They don't have to keep adding more subclass, they can expand more on existing subclass to make them fresh. Tho they should definitely at least add one more dark subclass.

Your comment at 12:25. "Do we get our own Throne world", really got my imagination going. It would be awesome to own property and show off personal creations in a personal Throne world
Same thing that happened with Forsaken. Players got sick and tired of the same old crap from the terrible base game, to the scammy first DLCs which was a carbon copy of the trash before hand. It literally went: D1 = Trash, DLC 1+2 = Trash. Taken King = Really good. DLC 4 = Trash. D2 = Trash, DLC 1+2 = Trash. Forsaken = Really good. DLC 4 = D1 copy trash, DLC 5 = Trash, Witch Queen = Really good. DLC 6 = Trash, The Final Shape = Good. Inbetween them having a bunch of meh seasons ofc. So we are due for more Trash DLCS and seasons because we've had another good DLC, they only seem to do them when we are sick and tired of them and seeing how they won back their good will (For whatever reason) they have no incentive to make them good again.
I love this lose-lose situation. Killing the Witness unearthed powerful enemies too scared to come out into the light in its presence, now they're all converging nearly at the same time with a fraction of its power against us. Eyes up Guardians, this isn't over yet.
Hey cross, did you notice that the second episode is about fallen, not scorn but fallen... and what is the only raid that is left to be brought to D2? I'll leave it at that.
Echoes seems like it can really setup the Vex as the next "See you at summer slam" enemy faction because we still have no idea what truly controls or is creating the Vex.
At first when they said that things were getting exciting, I wasn't fully sold on it. Then after experiencing The Final Shape and the Pale Heart, I am 100% hyped! They have completely outdone what I thought they could ever do anymore! It truly feels like a completely different, yet ever so classic Bungie!
Based off of this and the main image for echoes it seems there’s going to be some sort of humanoid character working alongside or controlling the vex which is very interesting.
@@prod.fffeedback7679 I get that, but the current executives are leaving now that Final Shape has drop, which hopefully means, a better use of talented devs and time, so that things like Lightfall don't happen again in the future.
I think the hint to Year 11 was mentioned earlier in the video when they were talking about the echoes. He said the explosion of this light and dark scattered these echoes across the "galaxy" not the solar system. So if we're chasing down these echoes, it might be a galaxy wide adventure
You know I never thought about that. Destroying a being with such high density of darkness energy would have repercussions. Like it just doesn't go away it has to all go somewhere.
Why do I feel like my work is done with destiny… I spent a decade holding back the darkness, now I feel that it’s time to make way for the new generation of guardians, we all gonna become vendors 😂
They COOKED with the campaign, they're seasoning it with the episodes, and they're starting to set up a sample for Frontiers. Bungie is fucking rocking this shit
@@sashio1365 WHAT?!?!? WHAT GAME ARE YOU PLAYING?! Dude. There's post campaign shit to still do, I can practically guarantee you haven't done the Raid yet. The first episode drops TOMORROW and then we STILL have exotic class items coming with that! "jAcKsHiT tO dO" if you have jack to do in the game now, you're playing it wrong.
@@sashio1365 Probably the same type of player that would endlessly run any multiplayer game but say theres nothing to do in Destiny, why not run content for fun? Or just to do it? If you dont find it fun then thats a different problem.
I hope you will see this Aztec. You are the reason i came back to the game. My friend was trying to convince me...but your video before the xpac explaining all the changes, convinced me to come back. And boy am i glad! Thank you for your work!
I love this game, my sons and I have grown up together with it, halo was my jam. Now destiny is my favourite thing when we're at home. No matter the critics, we're all still here grinding. 1 marriage and 4 sons, still going strong, life without Destiny wo6ld be strange to us all. Love this game and the friends I've made playing it. Rock on Guardians
HELLL YEAHHH..... "Mic Drop" I'm gonna jump the gun and say Bungie knocked these 3 episodes out of the park, F*CK YEAH!!!!! BUNGIE IS BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER.👍👍👍👍👍
I can't wait for this. im a destiny vet. i do love this game, and iv stuck around and stuck to the game because my love for it iv even got my oldest son playing.
Nobody seems to be talking about the hint that was dropped at 0:47 - “these echoes spread across the *galaxy* “ Galaxy implying that we’re leaving the Sol system, most likely with Frontiers.
rise of iron was a standalone story that in the grand scheme of things has not related to or tied into the main story and has resulted in nothing more than small easter eggs and references. rise of iron and siva were a one-and-done ordeal and that's all they needed to be
@@udontknowme00but that story could be so much more than a one-off campaign, and bungie has left so many details that could allow it to expand. Sure “we destroyed the replication chamber, siva is gone,” but it’s been teased in d2 that there’s more siva within colony ships, as well as a variant used to build neomuna. Siva’s story could be so much more
@@transformnroll2752 you obviously didn’t care enough to make time in the first place. Grow up and realize that you can’t have everything. Even if the 3rd one came out you would still complain when you got behind because you never made time.
@ezman141 lol I quit this FOMO game a year ago. Sounds like you have no life honestly. Not everyone has a lot of free time because of family and other stuff so obviously they won't spend much time. But I'll have you know, I grinded the crap out of game and got pretty good stuff
I think your initial reaction was correct. They're talking about "if you love the coil" so I suspect we're going to have the seasonal activity, but longer. This is not necessarily a bad thing, I'm just saying Bungie isn't abandoning the existing model.
The day Season of the Deep dropped, Alison Luhrs, was was a former creative world building lead for Magic: The Gathering, mentioned that was the first bit of work she’s been involved with and IMO the narrative has been amazing ever since. I’ve been playing Magic and keeping up with the story twice as long as I’ve been playing D2, and when I tell you I knew Alison was gonna bring the heat, I KNEW. Excited to see what the devs and crew have cooked up
If we can’t take gear with us at the very least I want my emblems, cosmetics, and anything purchased to come forward. To me my emblems hold more significance and tell the story of my journey more than my weapons. There’s so many emblems from D1 I wish I still could use primarily my kitty cat and scarab emblem from trials. The amount of consecutive matches I had to win after hitting flawless to get my cat emblem to drop was insanity I think it was like my 21st or 25th match after flawless without losing a match. That emblem was very rewarding to achieve and it sucked to have to leave it behind.
So Revenant's cutscenes seem to confirm that the Fallen knew about the Worm Gods, and from the idea of hunting "monsters", it would appear that--at least in some capacity--Eliksni back on Riis faced off against the Hive. I don't think Hive lore mentions the Fallen ever fighting the Worm Gods, but it would be an interesting idea if Xita had other children that weren't documented in the Book of Sorrow, and perhaps it's those children who are the "Eldritch" beings that are tying back to the Dreadnought. After all, we have to remember that the Dreadnought is but a SINGLE SECTION of Akka's body. And Yul is described as having a pair of dragon wings. So it's very much possible the more elderly and powerful worms take on more grotesque forms. Perhaps Xita was kept catatonic in her powering of the Upended, which is why she remains just a gigantic worm and not something more Lovecraftian.
If they bring back the old dreadnought I’d be so happy. Until recently I still used to logon to D1 just to run around there. The art, the strikes etc where all amazing. They would only need to change up the secret/hidden quest stuff, and I’d be satisfied if the rest was just a copy of D1.
I love your content cause its always so optimistic. and i am all there for it. i leave myself open to disappointment cause i always hope for the best. thanks
@Aztecross totally changed his tune about D3. He saw more than just the final shape during the showcase when he got to play. The way he said they show us 3-4 years ahead before mentioning the old expansions, he really meant they showed him a big hunk of where the game is going. Before all this he was like, "they gotta do a d3 to solve all these problems". Homie knows way more than he's letting on is all I'm saying
Codename frontiers gave me chills. Was kinda worried final shape would be it, not much going on past this year until either a d3 drop or not. But that they're already planning content after these episodes makes me very excited, provided they can keep going with the quality that they've just shown us. Which could be a tall ask, considering the lows we've seen.
Xivu Arath has an Echo...I bet and Oryx is coming back too....oh yeah the Dreadnaught is our new ship for the next Expansion. ...I just fell in love with D2 all over again.
I took a break for the last two seasons and was planning on finishing the Final Shape and being done. I just bought the annual pass lol After how good the Final Shape was and whats coming, I haven't been this excited for Destiny in a while.
0:31 I love when they throw out a bunch of buzzwords like that’s a valid explanation. “MHm yes, the darkness collided with the paracausality within the light to expand the nothingness of something into the something of nothingness given shape by our memories of power mhm yes, of course of course.” That’s all Destiny is at this point, they still don’t even know what the traveler or darkness is but couldn’t care less to try come up with something even in the “conclusion” of this “saga.” For apparently “answering all the questions” they sure didn’t answer any questions
I’m most hyped for revenant. Slaying vampires and more house of light stuff? Which means more screen time with my favorite character Mithrax? And it has dark fantasy vibes? Hell yeah
Thank u cross for saying the logical obvious thing…I WANT ALLLL MY LOOT if theres gonna be a “d3” or equivalent. Just one example is I FINALLY got my 5/5 adept iggy a few months ago and ever since this sweet thang came out in season 13 (way before u could go solo flawless it was only teams of 3) I wished so badly that I could get a god roll adept iggy. Now that I got it It feels like a huge part of my destiny journey was completed. Now I can use it and have a blast any time I want. No more grinding, no more hoping just pure bliss. This is only a small example of 1 gun. I bet a lot of ppl feel the same way about various loot in the game. Dont even get started on armor F re grinding that like heeelllll no. 😂😂
Really hoping the changes to nessus persist after this year. Episodes could be a great way to revamp our existing locations to be on the same level as the pale heart
I swear if we head to different galaxies in the dreadnought I'm going to be so happy. Also I hope we get those interactions with the few survivors of Oryx seeing the dreadnought again only for us guardians to step out of it.
This content all looks fantastic, they've smashed it out of the park with final shape and it looks to continue gameplay/experience wise with the episodes. .........but I don't understand how narratively they are going to make any of this relevant. We just damaged the witness.....the guy the traveller ran from, the guy the traveller couldn't even wound. How are any of these enemies going to even compare. I can't see how from a lore/narrative perspective how this won't fall absolutely flat
I have a weird feeling that all this story building for Destiny3 will allow us to explore abilities outside the traveler light/dark powers. More of building a character abilities around Cabal artillery, Hive magic, Fallen machinery
What if Frontiers sets up D3? Episode 4 - Torobatl Episode 5 - Riis Episode 6 - Fundament We mend our differences and potentially have different playable races with their own abilities.
I want D3 but I'd want it to be quite different. For starters (and it looks like it's going this way with prismatic), I'd kinda want to see them do away with the class and subclass system and move to a universal one. Would also like to see a few gameplay and engine changes, FS made strides towards having allies with you that actually feel somewhat like allies rather than turrets, but I'd like to see them work with that idea more. And maybe to even see them do away with the current social spaces destinations system. Dunno what they'd replace it with, but I'd be interested in trying some fresh changes
Im waiting until te episode is out for a bit to pick it up. It just looks like a standard 3 person defense mode. The poition system sounds like the standard vendor upgrade. Nothing really screams new to me, especially the season pass barely having anything substatially more than before. I hope im wrong, but its not confidence inspiring.
I want Destiny 2 to have an all out war pvp/pve mode. Were we pick a side and do the push and pull. With various rewards to fight for to show off our achievements.
im probably hoping for too much but i REALLY REALLY hope that each of these episodes brings a new patrol zone. nessus looks like its going to be expanded, revenant looks like were getting the reef back but probably a different space and heresy is the dreadnought. im probably asking for too much but it would be sick
I have no expectations, but it would be nice if the episodic content wasnt a complete "you had to be there" moment like seasons were. Again, i dont expect ANYTHING to stay behind just like seasons, but it would be nice if you could buy lets say echoes even after whatever Frontiers releases. Would make for a much more accessible story for new and returning players. Anyway, I know this has nothing to do with the video but i just tested bastion and its a 25% melee damage buff and a 30% weapon damage buff. Works pretty well with arc hunter with liars handshake for example. Pretty sure it plays well with titan synthos and wormgod too.
Fun video! The episodes look exciting. But I would like Destiny 2 to be made into a complete package with all of the content before new stuff. Maybe after the three episodes they'll wrap it all up with an Age of Triumph, and then D3.
"Fuck the kids. Makes that shit scary" 😂
Why you talking about fucking kids mate?
Yes!! I was expecting such a huge "Horror" aspect for Shadowkeep and it really didn't reach that for me so hopefully Revenant scratches that itch
Destiny is at its best when it goes full horror: Pressage, The Whisper, Haunted Forest, the Moon Underdark, that Shadowkeep ending cutscene

Same thing that happened with Forsaken. Players got sick and tired of the same old crap from the terrible base game, to the scammy first DLCs which was a carbon copy of the trash before hand. It literally went:
D1 = Trash, DLC 1+2 = Trash. Taken King = Really good. DLC 4 = Trash.
D2 = Trash, DLC 1+2 = Trash. Forsaken = Really good. DLC 4 = D1 copy trash, DLC 5 = Trash, Witch Queen = Really good. DLC 6 = Trash, The Final Shape = Good. Inbetween them having a bunch of meh seasons ofc. So we are due for more Trash DLCS and seasons because we've had another good DLC, they only seem to do them when we are sick and tired of them and seeing how they won back their good will (For whatever reason) they have no incentive to make them good again.
Dreadnought hunter armor looks so F****** dope. I'm in love. Bro, LOOK AT THAT CAPE!
I love this lose-lose situation. Killing the Witness unearthed powerful enemies too scared to come out into the light in its presence, now they're all converging nearly at the same time with a fraction of its power against us. Eyes up Guardians, this isn't over yet.
Hey cross, did you notice that the second episode is about fallen, not scorn but fallen... and what is the only raid that is left to be brought to D2? I'll leave it at that.
Bro forgot about scourge of the past and deep stone crypt
@@Roadkillwastaken DSC is still in the game and Scourge should never leave te vault imo 😂
@@Roadkillwastaken deep stone crypt already in the game lol
Will be interesting to see SIVA return but it would probably need its own standalone story.
We ain't getting wrath they said that already it's to difficult to do the siva they said
Echoes seems like it can really setup the Vex as the next "See you at summer slam" enemy faction because we still have no idea what truly controls or is creating the Vex.
At first when they said that things were getting exciting, I wasn't fully sold on it. Then after experiencing The Final Shape and the Pale Heart, I am 100% hyped! They have completely outdone what I thought they could ever do anymore! It truly feels like a completely different, yet ever so classic Bungie!
They gotta bring in Maya/Lakshmi if only so we can get some more Shohreh voice work. We deserve it, and she would absolutely crush it.
I hated Lakshmi, but Shohreh was phenomenal in the role for sure
Based off of this and the main image for echoes it seems there’s going to be some sort of humanoid character working alongside or controlling the vex which is very interesting.
Despite all of Destiny's failures and successes, I'm ready to put in another 10 years into this games story.
100%
I would be but idk about another several hundred dollars per year after shadowkeep and lightfall
@@prod.fffeedback7679 I get that, but the current executives are leaving now that Final Shape has drop, which hopefully means, a better use of talented devs and time, so that things like Lightfall don't happen again in the future.

Absolute smooth brain comment
I think the hint to Year 11 was mentioned earlier in the video when they were talking about the echoes. He said the explosion of this light and dark scattered these echoes across the "galaxy" not the solar system. So if we're chasing down these echoes, it might be a galaxy wide adventure
Us: “man that was a good ass meal”
Bungie: “SIT YO ASS DOWN WE GOT DESSERT”
You know I never thought about that. Destroying a being with such high density of darkness energy would have repercussions. Like it just doesn't go away it has to all go somewhere.
Echoes trailer out is wild. Mya Sunderesh leading the vex?
Going back to the dreadnaught was something I was not expecting. Niceeeeeee. And that hive ship armor is just class.
10:47 that’s a goddamn Hunters hat from Bloodborne
I immediately thought that as well
The fact that the Vex are finally doing something now... I thought it'd be the Sol Devisive retaliating, but nah. Nessus is finally getting attention
Why do I feel like my work is done with destiny… I spent a decade holding back the darkness, now I feel that it’s time to make way for the new generation of guardians, we all gonna become vendors 😂
A guardians work is never done
Let me replace Rahool so I can ruin the hopes of future guardians trying to get good loot from engrams.
@@MegaSatrixyes, give us a season where we hunt rahool after finding out he was intentionally dropping us shit loot to assist the witness.
Cause you’re a quitter, the traveler doesn’t want weak souls in its service
@@wrenstark6320dude it’s just a game lmao chill
They COOKED with the campaign, they're seasoning it with the episodes, and they're starting to set up a sample for Frontiers.
Bungie is fucking rocking this shit
brother theres jackshit to do in the game now
@@sashio1365 There are tons of post campaign stuff to do and the exotic class items aren't even out yet what are you talking about?
@@sashio1365 WHAT?!?!? WHAT GAME ARE YOU PLAYING?! Dude. There's post campaign shit to still do, I can practically guarantee you haven't done the Raid yet. The first episode drops TOMORROW and then we STILL have exotic class items coming with that! "jAcKsHiT tO dO" if you have jack to do in the game now, you're playing it wrong.
@@sashio1365 Probably the same type of player that would endlessly run any multiplayer game but say theres nothing to do in Destiny, why not run content for fun? Or just to do it? If you dont find it fun then thats a different problem.
I duno what's happening at Bungie, but I love it
I hope you will see this Aztec. You are the reason i came back to the game. My friend was trying to convince me...but your video before the xpac explaining all the changes, convinced me to come back. And boy am i glad! Thank you for your work!
Editors going crazy, I was just watching this live lol
I love this game, my sons and I have grown up together with it, halo was my jam. Now destiny is my favourite thing when we're at home. No matter the critics, we're all still here grinding. 1 marriage and 4 sons, still going strong, life without Destiny wo6ld be strange to us all. Love this game and the friends I've made playing it. Rock on Guardians
He said you don’t have the juice I’m dead rn lol
HELLL YEAHHH..... "Mic Drop" I'm gonna jump the gun and say Bungie knocked these 3 episodes out of the park, F*CK YEAH!!!!! BUNGIE IS BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER.👍👍👍👍👍
Imagine Destiny just never ends. "Oh you thought we were done? Nah, here's another one."
I can't wait for this. im a destiny vet. i do love this game, and iv stuck around and stuck to the game because my love for it iv even got my oldest son playing.
Bungo cooking 🧑🍳
Came back to watch this and lol at Cross saying they cooking. As soon as we entered the 1st Episode the player base fled.
Why bungie! Why are you cooking?!? I was done! I slayed the witnesses. I was putting the thunder clap down!
Nobody seems to be talking about the hint that was dropped at 0:47 - “these echoes spread across the *galaxy* “
Galaxy implying that we’re leaving the Sol system, most likely with Frontiers.
They didn’t forget the dreadnaught they forgot Rose of Iron
rise of iron was a standalone story that in the grand scheme of things has not related to or tied into the main story and has resulted in nothing more than small easter eggs and references. rise of iron and siva were a one-and-done ordeal and that's all they needed to be
@@udontknowme00but that story could be so much more than a one-off campaign, and bungie has left so many details that could allow it to expand. Sure “we destroyed the replication chamber, siva is gone,” but it’s been teased in d2 that there’s more siva within colony ships, as well as a variant used to build neomuna. Siva’s story could be so much more
@@quixotic_mind But why should we care about siva if neomuna already have an improved version of it?
The little ghost diamond graphic under the FRONTIERS banner at the end emits 3 blips. D3 confirmed?
Very true, people want a reset because their gear is inferior and they didn’t put the time in to get it.
So we should cater to people that don't actually play the game? Huh?
So what I hear is "how dare ppl have a life outside of a game"
@@transformnroll2752 wah
@@transformnroll2752 you obviously didn’t care enough to make time in the first place. Grow up and realize that you can’t have everything. Even if the 3rd one came out you would still complain when you got behind because you never made time.
@ezman141 lol I quit this FOMO game a year ago. Sounds like you have no life honestly. Not everyone has a lot of free time because of family and other stuff so obviously they won't spend much time.
But I'll have you know, I grinded the crap out of game and got pretty good stuff
I think your initial reaction was correct. They're talking about "if you love the coil" so I suspect we're going to have the seasonal activity, but longer.
This is not necessarily a bad thing, I'm just saying Bungie isn't abandoning the existing model.
I'm just glad they all shared their pronouns. That's what really matters.
ngl, when I saw the year 11 hit the screen, it felt like a Dr telling me my friend is gonna live.
The day Season of the Deep dropped, Alison Luhrs, was was a former creative world building lead for Magic: The Gathering, mentioned that was the first bit of work she’s been involved with and IMO the narrative has been amazing ever since. I’ve been playing Magic and keeping up with the story twice as long as I’ve been playing D2, and when I tell you I knew Alison was gonna bring the heat, I KNEW. Excited to see what the devs and crew have cooked up
That last phrase there, I'm laughing so hard!! hahah
If we can’t take gear with us at the very least I want my emblems, cosmetics, and anything purchased to come forward. To me my emblems hold more significance and tell the story of my journey more than my weapons. There’s so many emblems from D1 I wish I still could use primarily my kitty cat and scarab emblem from trials. The amount of consecutive matches I had to win after hitting flawless to get my cat emblem to drop was insanity I think it was like my 21st or 25th match after flawless without losing a match. That emblem was very rewarding to achieve and it sucked to have to leave it behind.
I like how he uploads this and the echoes launch trailer also comes out
This year has to continue being a banger, for our trust in bungie, and for Destiny to survive in the meantime. The seasons/Episodes HAVE to pop off.
So Revenant's cutscenes seem to confirm that the Fallen knew about the Worm Gods, and from the idea of hunting "monsters", it would appear that--at least in some capacity--Eliksni back on Riis faced off against the Hive. I don't think Hive lore mentions the Fallen ever fighting the Worm Gods, but it would be an interesting idea if Xita had other children that weren't documented in the Book of Sorrow, and perhaps it's those children who are the "Eldritch" beings that are tying back to the Dreadnought. After all, we have to remember that the Dreadnought is but a SINGLE SECTION of Akka's body. And Yul is described as having a pair of dragon wings. So it's very much possible the more elderly and powerful worms take on more grotesque forms. Perhaps Xita was kept catatonic in her powering of the Upended, which is why she remains just a gigantic worm and not something more Lovecraftian.
If they bring back the old dreadnought I’d be so happy.
Until recently I still used to logon to D1 just to run around there.
The art, the strikes etc where all amazing.
They would only need to change up the secret/hidden quest stuff, and I’d be satisfied if the rest was just a copy of D1.
I love your content cause its always so optimistic. and i am all there for it. i leave myself open to disappointment cause i always hope for the best. thanks
@Aztecross totally changed his tune about D3. He saw more than just the final shape during the showcase when he got to play. The way he said they show us 3-4 years ahead before mentioning the old expansions, he really meant they showed him a big hunk of where the game is going.
Before all this he was like, "they gotta do a d3 to solve all these problems". Homie knows way more than he's letting on is all I'm saying
what will be amazing, is if we get out own throne world and are able customize it and add troops. That would be wonderful
Codename frontiers gave me chills. Was kinda worried final shape would be it, not much going on past this year until either a d3 drop or not. But that they're already planning content after these episodes makes me very excited, provided they can keep going with the quality that they've just shown us. Which could be a tall ask, considering the lows we've seen.
Xivu Arath has an Echo...I bet and Oryx is coming back too....oh yeah the Dreadnaught is our new ship for the next Expansion. ...I just fell in love with D2 all over again.
Vampire and Horror themed!!! Literally my cup of tea. I'm so excited for this. And going back to the dreadnaught!
I took a break for the last two seasons and was planning on finishing the Final Shape and being done. I just bought the annual pass lol After how good the Final Shape was and whats coming, I haven't been this excited for Destiny in a while.
0:31 I love when they throw out a bunch of buzzwords like that’s a valid explanation. “MHm yes, the darkness collided with the paracausality within the light to expand the nothingness of something into the something of nothingness given shape by our memories of power mhm yes, of course of course.” That’s all Destiny is at this point, they still don’t even know what the traveler or darkness is but couldn’t care less to try come up with something even in the “conclusion” of this “saga.” For apparently “answering all the questions” they sure didn’t answer any questions
Money, they fully know that people will throw $100 at them every year.
It really seems like most the people that got fired must have really been holding the ones still there back big time
That weapon for the fallen episode looks like the guns they bad guys carried in Krull. The armor is reminiscent of their armor also
The Wiitness in 10 years: "You couldn't live with your own failures, where did that bring you? Back to me" 😂
I’m most hyped for revenant. Slaying vampires and more house of light stuff? Which means more screen time with my favorite character Mithrax? And it has dark fantasy vibes? Hell yeah
I'M CALLING IT NOW, we're FINALLY gonna get a Vex-themed Dungeon! 7:21 this looks like it could DEFINITELY be a dungeon encounter
That picture of the fallen facing down a worm is giving me predators hunting xenomorphs vibes
Thank u cross for saying the logical obvious thing…I WANT ALLLL MY LOOT if theres gonna be a “d3” or equivalent. Just one example is I FINALLY got my 5/5 adept iggy a few months ago and ever since this sweet thang came out in season 13 (way before u could go solo flawless it was only teams of 3) I wished so badly that I could get a god roll adept iggy. Now that I got it It feels like a huge part of my destiny journey was completed. Now I can use it and have a blast any time I want. No more grinding, no more hoping just pure bliss. This is only a small example of 1 gun. I bet a lot of ppl feel the same way about various loot in the game. Dont even get started on armor F re grinding that like heeelllll no. 😂😂
The Vampire Hunter armor for Titan looks so sick.
I want the helmet as an Ornament.
Really hoping the changes to nessus persist after this year. Episodes could be a great way to revamp our existing locations to be on the same level as the pale heart
I swear if we head to different galaxies in the dreadnought I'm going to be so happy. Also I hope we get those interactions with the few survivors of Oryx seeing the dreadnought again only for us guardians to step out of it.
This content all looks fantastic, they've smashed it out of the park with final shape and it looks to continue gameplay/experience wise with the episodes.
.........but I don't understand how narratively they are going to make any of this relevant. We just damaged the witness.....the guy the traveller ran from, the guy the traveller couldn't even wound. How are any of these enemies going to even compare. I can't see how from a lore/narrative perspective how this won't fall absolutely flat
I have a weird feeling that all this story building for Destiny3 will allow us to explore abilities outside the traveler light/dark powers. More of building a character abilities around Cabal artillery, Hive magic, Fallen machinery
What if Frontiers sets up D3?
Episode 4 - Torobatl
Episode 5 - Riis
Episode 6 - Fundament
We mend our differences and potentially have different playable races with their own abilities.
I want D3 but I'd want it to be quite different. For starters (and it looks like it's going this way with prismatic), I'd kinda want to see them do away with the class and subclass system and move to a universal one.
Would also like to see a few gameplay and engine changes, FS made strides towards having allies with you that actually feel somewhat like allies rather than turrets, but I'd like to see them work with that idea more. And maybe to even see them do away with the current social spaces destinations system. Dunno what they'd replace it with, but I'd be interested in trying some fresh changes
It’s always interesting how they contextualize the story into gameplay mechanics.
Those Hive Naval-style armor sets look dope af
Also, "Frontiers" makes it sound like we're finally going to leave Sol.
Im waiting until te episode is out for a bit to pick it up. It just looks like a standard 3 person defense mode.
The poition system sounds like the standard vendor upgrade.
Nothing really screams new to me, especially the season pass barely having anything substatially more than before.
I hope im wrong, but its not confidence inspiring.
I want Destiny 2 to have an all out war pvp/pve mode. Were we pick a side and do the push and pull. With various rewards to fight for to show off our achievements.
im probably hoping for too much but i REALLY REALLY hope that each of these episodes brings a new patrol zone. nessus looks like its going to be expanded, revenant looks like were getting the reef back but probably a different space and heresy is the dreadnought. im probably asking for too much but it would be sick
Honestly after heresy this is a good jump off point for people looking to move on or they can continue the fun I’ll be waiting and seeing man
These might be some of the best armor sets they have ever made with these upcomibg episodes, absolutely 🔥.
9:09 this exactly why i love cross's reaction.
I have no expectations, but it would be nice if the episodic content wasnt a complete "you had to be there" moment like seasons were.
Again, i dont expect ANYTHING to stay behind just like seasons, but it would be nice if you could buy lets say echoes even after whatever Frontiers releases.
Would make for a much more accessible story for new and returning players.
Anyway, I know this has nothing to do with the video but i just tested bastion and its a 25% melee damage buff and a 30% weapon damage buff.
Works pretty well with arc hunter with liars handshake for example. Pretty sure it plays well with titan synthos and wormgod too.
Fun video! The episodes look exciting. But I would like Destiny 2 to be made into a complete package with all of the content before new stuff. Maybe after the three episodes they'll wrap it all up with an Age of Triumph, and then D3.
Just took my nervousness about the future and completely flipped it. Un-ironically...*let's freaking go!*
