      I bounced between Myelin and Byf a lot while I played Destiny 2, but with how rough things got towards the end I don't blame him for diversifying his content. Bungie was just bad at maintaining this beautiful world that we were introduced to a decade ago. Even Aztecross started diversifying pretty heavily at the end if I remember right. The fact is that Destiny 2 is a finished franchise which the owners of have shown little to no care for the people playing it or diving into its universe through story.

I played the lore of dredgen Yor and propped her phone upright and listened. My mom was confused but Mildly fascinated. I remember she commented how nice your voice was and how weird destiny was. Later that day I curled up next to a small heater in our new house… playing destiny. I’m 19 now, and looking back you were a big part of my childhood. Thank you so much for everything myelin.

    Hey Myelin. I typically don't watch much lore content but whenever I get a lore kick you're my go to "lore guy", you just have great energy. I stopped playing destiny after the final shape, it just seemed like a good ending point for me.
    I doubt you remember but years ago in D1 age of triumph I ran Crotas End and Wrath of the Machine with you while you were streaming. I think I was only in 8th grade at the time, but it's still one of my favorite destiny moments and even gaming moments in general. It's the only time I've gotten to play with any form of content creator.
    I'm about to graduate college now, looking forward to my future. Glad to see you trying new things I'll stick around to see it, I wish you nothing but success!

    You are absolutely right myelin, Bungie literally took all the mystery out of the game/lore and then started bandaid fixing and retcon’n so much lore and never ending story beats till years later with the worst pay off possible. It completely lost its identity. They even had the audacity to say it was hard to make content yet Eververse has so much shit in it with lore tie ins and they keep handing out seasonal exotics with no explanation.
    Your take and prediction videos that had our imagination running wild were the reason I got so into the lore, you will always be my original lore daddy. Good luck.

      It really sucks hearing this from Myelin because it validates how I’ve felt for a while now. These mysteries and curiosities never really pay off. It feels like the narrative writers are focused on making the stories lukewarm emotional melodramas rather than sci-fi fantasy. It sucks to see Bungie coast like this aimlessly. I guarantee you that Frontiers is going to be a weak-splash of a drop, with no strong direction, theme or intrigue.

    At around 12:34 Myelin is realizing that some of these plot lines that are "teased" are probably never fully fleshed out and just a start of an idea that someone says "yeah that would be cool" or they're pieces of Destiny's lore/story that has been shattered since D1 start with horrible grimore cards and the narrative team has been piecing things back together since. And the sad thing is people come and go so often at Bungie that anyone who had their hands on shaping story is probably long gone and the story has been through 4 different people who hated or wanted to put their stamp on things and changed things so much. Or you get things like Calus being rushed as a deciple, Nimbus being forced trash, "the veil" still not making any sense, all while we have so many unanswered/dropped lines and hints we'll never see answered either due to a change in staff at Bungie, or they never had any idea of how to move it forward, or it gets cut due to development choices. It's sad but true that you can get lost in the lore and guess at what things mean, but the likely hood of it mattering or showing up and resolving is rare.

    • @AngelOfDæth_4
      @AngelOfDæth_4 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yup. And the worst part is they rarely if at all delve into any of the plotlines or characters they set up but always want to rehash a lot of the other ones that seemed like they already ran their course (I’m still waiting on Neomuna to get another cloudstrider after Rohan’s untimely demise, btw…. But having Nimbus be the senior Cloudstrider would probably be a massive anyway, so whatever I guess lol)

    • @SALEENS7GTR5
      @SALEENS7GTR5 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      I came to the conclusion long ago that the "mystery" in D1 was not because of Bungie's confidence in weaving in new story lines with vague but tangible threads for us to craft ideas and eventually build up to some big reveal. A reveal that we may have predicted or one that pulled the rug out from underneath us and really made the story interesting. No, the "mystery" in D1 was Bungie simply not knowing what tf was going on themselves and where to go, and using that to keep us intrigued. Lots of cool ideas, but none trodden too deep. Once D2 rolled around and showed the triangles and then the Witness, while it was good we were getting answers to the "dark" and "light", assigning them entities and sides ruined the grand cosmic mystery and gave a definitive ending. The Winnower seems like another Witness and our Guardian will probably be the chosen one until the servers shut down. Others have made videos and comments saying the narrative corner Bungie wrote themselves into, but you do wonder how thick the blindfold they were forced to wear was, with shifting priorities and employees that stumbled themselves into that corner.

    • @prestonphillips473
      @prestonphillips473 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      @ It's like when you read about the TV show Lost, or anything JJ Abrams does, he has great cool ideas, but no answer to the questions they bring and he'll figure it out eventually, but he doesn't so it all ends poorly. D1, and the absolute disaster with their story before and after the game launched, was the same. Heck people didn't even have names "The Speaker" "The Queen" "The Stranger" and not to forget what sums up D1's story "I don't even have time to explain why I don't have time to explain."
      I'm worried Frontiers will be more of the same when they say they want to focus on open storytelling and mystery/exploration.. So many people left/quit/fired I imagine few people left working on the story are there who either know what to do, or were behind the good ideas. Yeah things change over 10 years, but I'm not all that confident the next "10" will be any good with the winnower.

    Hit the nail on the head with the story team saying “what’s a good theme, vampires”. I respect your decision especially from a lore guy standpoint since the story is always thrown together so predicting the eventuated story and hopefulness of mystery is dead. You were never the other lore guy to me as I always found lore guy one’s voice obnoxious. I’ll miss the lore videos with choice music in the background to relax to but I wish you the best my friend.

      My issue is that they never even commit to the theme. Its like they dig through the original "ideas" folder of a given season to find a buzzword to use in their devstreams/marketing without checking to see if the game that they're actually building even matches that theme anymore. Bu gie are mortified at the idea of branching out or ever trying to actually change the game in a meaningful way. Every new release is just another "color" of the same shit we've been doing for 10 years, and the few times they do try to shake things up they hedge hard enough that it you can barely tell they tried to shake it up at all.

    I'll give an honest bit of feedback here from someone who's been around with this channel since D1. While I likely won't watch as many videos, I personally wanna keep an eye out to see what kind of other games you play. To me, after a certain point it wasn't just about Destiny, it was about how you expressed that content through your unique voice. There were other Destiny lore creators, but your presentation of that lore is what kept me around, adding a bit of mysticism through the type of librarian-storytelling you provided. Really only Byf and Datto were the main content creators I watched with any sort of regularity throughout the last 10 years. The Halo videos were all fun and occasionally one or two games you'd play I'd come and check out... but the main reason why I came back was because of both the game AND you. Destiny or not, if there's something that piques my interest, and you're playing it, I'm gonna come by and check it out.
    I honestly wish that TH-cam (and audience expectations) didn't push creators to be either just one thing and only that one thing, or a variety/IRL streamer (though that's even harder to break through in). I'm really only unsubscribing for the reason you mentioned - if I'm not gonna be watching every single video, and it hurts you creatively and financially for me to be subscribed, then why keep being subscribed? I'll say, that's the ONLY reason I'm actually unsubscribing from this channel ATM, and it sucks that TH-cam (and potentially even the modern media landscape) is structured this way. I could make a whole rant, but... well, you know the struggle.
    I will say, I really hope that if you need to pivot to another job to keep up the paychecks that you're able to land something quick. The job market is utter hell and you need to be ready for a months long hell-ride. I don't want to see another person get crushed by this frankly greedy rat-race, yet its obviously happening anyways.
    In case there isn't much I come back to see, thanks for the memories, Myelin. I mean it, those lore videos helped get me through a VERY difficult time in my life and make friends I otherwise would've likely had trouble making. I wish you luck in future endeavors, and I really hope you are able to make something great from your situation - if not tomorrow, then some day.

Obviously I respect you leaving destiny and taking the time to figure out what you want to do, but as someone who genuinely appreciates everything you have provided for the destiny lore community, and have gotten back into warframe after the years of updates to the story and world building; I cannot tell you how amazing it would be to have a true lore master for Warframe.

    I have so little time to watch youtube these days, but when I got into Destiny, it was through you, and I'd watch every upload as I went from starting uni to starting at work, getting known as "Destiny Andrew".
