      Genuinely from everything Ive read about LF and TFS's development, it really seems like they started work on the TFS story with their A team and left Lightfall to dry. They've stated how TFS's story development has the largest writing room they've ever done and that they're putting a ton of effort into the story (something they never said about LF lol) so I can only conclude they decided LF was a lost cause and started work on the final shape

      Far Cry 3 Vass' "Definition of Insanity". Release an underwhelming game, try to fix it with mediocre, small, low quality DLCs, fix it with large, high quality DLC, repeat.
      They did it with D1 Vanilla, Dark Below, House of Wolves and Taken King.
      They did it again with D2 Vanilla, Curse of Osiris, Warmind and Forsaken.
      And again with Beyond Light and its seasons (Arrivals is considered to be peak of D2) and Witch Queen.
      And once again with Lightfall.
      Reinstalled the game after this cutscene. After Lightfall campaign deleted it from disc and dropped the game forever. Witch Queen and this cutscene were the last pieces I enjoyed without a doubt. I can't give my time to the company that much insane and out of touch with reality. At least I've got Halo MCC and Mass Effect to play now.

      I wouldn't say the worst expansion, Osiris' expansion is probably my least favorite or shadow keep. Was Lightfall perfect, no but it wasn't bad either. Especially on Veteran difficulty it was actually really fun and I felt like the story was good, just a little to rushed if the story had been longer it would have been better. I'm just hoping Final Shape sends the Light and Dark saga out with a bang otherwise I think Bungie is done.

    Everything about this cutscene was incredible. The City watching in fear as the Traveler took off. Misraaks begging Eramis not to do this, while she wavers between listening to him and obeying the Witness. Ana’s final moment with Rasputin, and Elsie showing up to comfort her after. And the Witness’ ominous threat at the end.
    The icing on cake was the call back to the original Destiny poster at 3:27. This was absolutely beautiful.

    • @dredgentruth3455
      @dredgentruth3455 ปีที่แล้ว +93

      That seems to be how the witness operates. It doesn't get you to join it's cause because it has some moral high ground. Rather, it acts like it's helping you get what you think you want.
      With the Hive, it showed them visions of the syzygy, and granted them the power to survive and take vengeance on those who had wronged them, then further extending that to the traveler, since doing so helps the witness to destroy the light.
      It helped rhulk to destroy the oppressive government of his home planet, in exchange for rhulks undying loyalty.
      It promised Calus that he would be the one to see all the universe has to offer, to be the last one living in it.
      We can even see this in the way that the witness outfits its disciples. Despite having them all adopt the usage of pyramid technology, it seems to be very lenient on how the disciples express themselves through it. Rhulk is vain, and his pyramid is essentially a museum of all his accomplishments. Calus' ship literally has his face plastered on it, front and center, and beyond that, looks completely different to any of the other darkness ships.
      All this seems to help maintain the idea that the disciples have control of themselves, and are doing what they do not because the witness tells them to, but because they want to. And this is exactly the illusion that the witness wants to portray. It's an infamously manipulative entity, that lies coldly to its followers in order to move them, as if pieces on a board. It doesn't care for them, but the easiest way to keep them in line is to convince them that they are serving themselves, rather than the witness.

      @@elitegamer9310 You're absolutely right, but it's also clear that Eramis isn't thinking in the most logical way. She's emotionally a slave to her grief.
      Think of it this way, if some big savior type came to your planet and offered you everything you ever wanted, but inadvertently dragged you into a war that it knew was following it, and then abandoned you to the consequences, there's definitely a reason to be pissed off at that "savior." The witness probably just manipulated Eramis into believing that it was *solely* the travelers fault, so that she would work in its favor.

      We’ve had bits of lore from her perspective previously. Unlikely she was actually leaving, but rather trying to distance from the city to avoid collateral damage.
      The Whirlwind was her screwing up and staying with the Eliksni too long basically because she was lonely. Then when the attack came, she left knowing she was the target and hoping the Eliksni would be spared. Which didn’t work, so she wouldn’t bother again; even if she did intend to run, she’d have already done so knowing the Black Fleet is already around. There IS nowhere to run, but that’s been the case since Arrivals.

    This was an oddly fitting upload on Valentine's Day, actually... one can see all forms of love play out in this finale. The love Ana had for Rasputin, and the love Rasputin had for both Ana and humanity to be so willing to sacrifice himself. The love that humanity has had for the Traveler for centuries. The twisted love for Riis and the Eliksni/Fallen that still motivates Eramis to take revenge on the Traveler. The sisterly love between Ana and Elsie. The couple's love between Saint and Osiris as they held each other steady in the face of their worst fears. The brotherhood between humanity, Cabal, and Eliksni, driven to protect one another in the face of a hopelessly powerful enemy. And arguably the most important, the seeming answer to the question of "Does the Traveler truly treasure humanity enough to stay and defend us against the coming Darkness?"
    This may just be me being pedantic, but that's just something I thought of during the finale cutscene.

    You know, there’s a sort of beautiful finality feeling to this. The Traveller actually moving(whether to run or take a final stand against the Witness), all of the characters we’ve come to know and love preparing for the end, it’s an almost hauntingly comforting thing. I cant exactly explain it. I know we still have The Final Shape after this, but it really feels like we’re reaching the end.
    For many of us, we started playing Destiny since the alpha back in 2014. Fast forward almost 9 years later and it’s crazy that Destiny has come this far. Destiny has never once made me feel emotional until this point. Almost 10 years this game has been a part of my life. It’s crazy to think about.

Been playing since D1's launch, but I've never been so invested in the franchise as I am now. Still a lot of lore and seasonal stuff I don't know about, but I'm actually more excited avout Destiny's future than I am Halo's.

    I was thinking to myself, that after seeing Cayde-6 die, i wasn't thinking i was gonna cry again after that cutscene. But HOLY SHIT this made me tear up.
    Even though we only got know Rasputin for most of this season compared to the other times where he's been relevant to the story, it's just heartbreaking to see him have no other option than sacrifice himself for humanity. The relationship between him and Ana was certainly special. The emotion and actions Ana showed really makes the cutscene just the more sadder. The hug from Elsie was what really made me cry after witnessing Ana shutdown Rasputin in the last moments before Eramis' plan had worked.
    This season was certainly the best for me in my opinion. I have never felt that more engagded in the Destiny story than ever before. Props to you Bungie.

      We still have his ghost funny enough, on the back of his helm, so that may be a future plotline in episodes or something.

    We complain but we also compliment, this ending was just perfect, I've never felt soo invested with a cutscene in destiny like this before, the tone, the sad soundtrack, the parallels with d1, the witness at the end
    You guys nailed it

    Now I understand the meaning behind Season of Defiance. The end begins, but we will stand our ground just as the Traveler chose to do here.

      @@Set451 there's a good reason why it probably wasn't ready to leave. The warsats could have killed everyone in the city due to the debris after, which is a potential reason. It stopped, now in Earth's orbit. There's a long standing theory that the traveller wasn't fleeing to try and survive, but that it is the last of the travellers and was trying to find a race to fight the witness

      @@Set451 My theory is the real reason why it stopped and haven't gone back is because if the Witness catches him in the City instead of in low orbit then likely the entirety of the Last City would have been destroyed

    What a phenomenal ending to a season and a year. Storytelling in this game has come so far. I love the weekly story bits, and this cinematic and that final mission made it feel all worth it. So awesome
