"After all these years... we never talked about it. Why I brought you back. Why you were chosen. The truth is... I didn't know then. It was just a feeling. But I know now. After all we've seen... all we've lost... this fight might be our last. So I'm asking you one last time... to rise." It's been an honor, Guardians.
o7 Eyes up, guardians. This team was one of the most wonderful and consistent things about Destiny. It's hard to see the Michaels and Skye go. I was tempted to not even talk about Destiny anymore. But, this is their magnum opus. One more time around the sun. This one is gonna hit in the feels.
I was wondering if you had given up on destiny, glad to see nearly everyone show up for one last fight together. Looking forward to your reaction, marco.
Ten years of farming for god rolls and countless wipes later. From being scared to jump on LFG and follow a sherpa to becoming a sherpa myself. From never launching a GM Nightfall knowing I just couldn't to soloing them. From being proud of my achievements to being proud in seeing others succeed. Thanks Bungie and the Destiny community! Make your own fate.
@@dixonjamesofficial Once you realize most people in LFGs are just as clueless as the next guy, it gets a lot less intimidating. Hope you can give it a try in FInal Shape!
The fact that people are STILL scared to LFG is proof of how vile the Destiny community truly is. Fireteam finder has literally become Tinder. Once I kill the Witness I'm out. Adios.
10 years. Almost feels like graduating from high school. I'm so ready. EDIT: I suppose I should put my story out there. I was playing D1 during The Dark Below and I was 14. Here I am now, 24 years old and about to experience the end of a journey. What a Rollercoaster. See you starside, Guardians. o7
@@wintereclipse3263 lol wtf you wernt there im sure michael is fishing and drinking a beer enjoying his life, no bad blood has been between them two. Also im pretty sure he would sue if they cut his retirement. Man made a contract and that contract is over, plain and simple.
@@DVIDMusic Did some more research him and the other employees that day were fired because Destiny 2 was "Underperforming" this is also the incident that upset Sony as Sony gave Bungie money to retain the employees and not long after fired 100 of them.

1:55:59 after all these years…they finally released it officially 😭😭😭😭 if you know you know, a fond hello to my fellow 2013 destiny veterans ❤️ Always remember to be both *noble and bestial*
T'was the night before The Final Shape, and all through the Tower, Guardians prepared for their ultimate hour. Weapons were polished, armor gleamed bright, Hoping tomorrow they'd stand strong in the fight. The Ghosts nestled snug in their shells, Dreaming of victories their stories would tell. Zavala and Ikora, their plans set and clear, Awaited the dawn with a mix of hope and fear. The Traveler shone brightly, a beacon of light, Signaling the end of the Shadow and night. This was the moment, the saga's grand close, The final chapter, where legend arose. So remember this night, as history we'll make, With courage and Light, our destiny we stake. T'was the night before The Final Shape, indeed, And into the darkness, our Light would lead.
Finished it all yesterday with a very good friend by my side, this game became very important to me, countless hours, laughs, people coming together, new and old friends, people I brought in just because I couldn't stop myself from infodumping the lore whenever they asked... Hell, there was a time when I was up late grinding nightfalls for some weapon I no longer use and a friend called to see if I was up 'cause she needed someone to talk too, so she came by, the orbit screen playing deepstone lullaby and we cried our hearts out to some irl stuff and then just listened to the music. I don't think I'll ever be over this game. Bungie thanked us while we watched the Traveler finally free, but I thank all the people that made this possible, new and old, those still building the world and the ones who are no longer part of Destiny. Thanks for the journey. Per audacia ad astra!
00:33:53 After 10 years of playing this game this might be my favorite Orbit music. It feels like a huge weight is lifted off our shoulders every time i hear it.
We awoke in a pile of rusted cars and rubble in Old Russia, raised by an enigmatic being who deemed us worthy. Now we defend its very heart as the fate of the universe itself hangs in the balance. It’s been one hell of a ride my friends, so let’s finish this fight.
Through the highest highs of my life, through the darkest depths of depression and loneliness, this game and its community have been there. 10 years of life, love, loss... and this game being the thing to unwind with through the days. Thank you Bungie for bringing us this far, and I (and many of us) hope you still have stories to tell about this universe
10 years... wow. The first time i played Destiny was in 2014. I was just 14 years old... This franchise carryied me for all my adolescence. I meet my best friends in this game in a time that all was difficult to me. Now, 10 years later, we are just at the beginning of the end. Eyes up, guardians! Let's fight for one more time together!
I agree guardian I was five when it came out and I played all the way back then now at 15 I am ready to move into the next chapter of my life as destiny does the same. Keep your head and eyes up guardians we fight together one last time for the last city!
@@SylokstheDefiled just about the same ordeal for me. Once I hit 8 my whole life became destiny lol. Who would have thought I'd be playing all the way through elementary to the ends of high school
In Stronger, Together you can hear a heroic sounding Savathun theme. Oh buddy I hope we will be fighting along side her even if she isn't a permanent ally
I hope she and her light/lucent brood become allied after a while. If we found common ground with the Fallen and the Cabal, then we can do the same with the Hive.
I’d be willing to bet a lot of money that they do become a temporary ally. The Witness wants to end all things, to stop time itself and end existence. Savathûn may be treacherous and crave power, but if the Witness wins, there is no life for her and her brood - she has no choice, she must align with those who are fighting for life and existence itself.
It's hard to say. I watched Datto and Skillup's preview videos and they did a good job of censoring it, but IGN's review showed them fighting a follower of Savathun inside the Pale Heart as one of the patrol activity bosses. I guess we should remember whilst we share a common foe with Savathun, she is not our ally or friend.
I grew up playing the first Destiny game with my dad. I was around 11 or 12 at the time. He used to burn CD’s with soundtracks from video games and movies, and he had the soundtrack from the first game on it. We would always listen to it in his car whenever we drove somewhere. Now that The Final Shape has arrived, it makes me a bit sad knowing this is the last major release for Destiny. But I’ll always have those memories to hold on to. Thank you Bungie for letting us be able to make all those memories for the last 10 years!
More memories are sure to come, Guardian. Bungie said they'll keep working on this game in the future, this is merely the end of one story. Maybe our fate will begin another?
“Only echoes remain” at 1:53:38 has me really excited for what might come next The Witness theme from WQ sat launch had so much dread, but this is something else…
Michael Salvatori and the music team never disappointed, I'm so glad they at least got to play their part in year 10 of the franchise. Eyes up guardians!
It's a close race between that and Coruscate for me. Both build throughout and constantly shift themes; truly some of the best songs I've heard from Destiny, and that's saying something.
Got my godslayer title last night and I'm so ready for Final Shape been playing since I was in highschool now im a father of 3 and I've been waiting for this moment forever proud to be here guardians and remember eyes up and I'll see you all star side!
I was about ten or so when i picked the game up, and I have never put it down since. I truly love this game, through its highs and lows, Taken King's to Shadowkeep's, if you will... Thank you Bungie, for making this amazing game, experience, and journey for myself and countless others to enjoy. See you all tomorrow afternoon!
My god, this is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever experienced. Thank you to everyone who worked on the ost for final shape and bungie as a whole. Fan service in audio form, Simply a masterpiece.
I might have joined this community back in rise of iron which was a little late but I have been here ever since. Going from the red war to forsaken to shadow keep which felt a little weird but from then on it looked like the story was actually going somewhere and I can’t wait to see the conclusion of said story when I face the witness tomorrow along side the two of my best friends that I met playing this game and the one before it. although we aren’t the best of players out there that’s for sure we still work well together and they are defiantly some of the best friends I could have ever asked for and I would never change that. While all is said and done I want to thank you Bungie with all my heart for bringing this game into the world and allowing me to make friendships like no other so Thank you. Also I want to thank the community for helping me over the years with any raids , dungeons , GMs you name it Im also looking forward to more runs down the road so see you out there little lights from yours truly CobraxxYT.
Not always about the skills mate, it’s more important you enjoy and bond with your friends over it. I’ve been playing with my friends since beta D1 and we’re finishing the fight together, that’s what counts
The last chord…. I was at work and I didn’t realize it but I stopped everything I was doing and just hung in that chord. Wonderful job on this score. Words do not express the thanks we have for this team and the amazing abilities all of the people involved with the creation of this score. Absolute perfection… thank you deeply.
It makes me sad this potentially might be the last ost to have the Witness & Traveler motfs 33:53 This must be for the Witness's race, love how beautiful it is, almost heavenly - to then turn into a hellish motif of the Witness at the end. 1:23:52 Funny that the Witness's whispers ended up getting a theme. I think this is for the Veiled/cloaked figures we've seen, i believe they represent the Penitent of the Witness's race, since we see one of them holding what appears to be a glass shard at Zavala (the Witness has a theme of breaking glass) aswell as the Witness using one of the many figures around Zavala as a mouthpiece to speak to him. 1:25:13Assuming this is the Witness, this references what was talked about in Unveiling & Inspiral, how the Gardener & Winnower "discover" The First Knife. "In absence of a hand, either the flowers themselves must rise up to wield the knife, or the garden will resolve to meaningless wilderness." This calls back to what Ahsa said, the Witness's race craved a Winnower, so they "merged themselves into the salvation they craved". They became a Winnower since the Veil wasnt doing its role as the Winnower
“Make your own fate” is my FAVORITE song I’ve ever heard from Destiny. It pumps me up and makes me feel powerful and invincible every time I hear it. Absolutely the BEST song ever made for Destiny!!! And “After all this time” is my second favorite because of how it makes me remember all of those good times I’ve had in Destiny and how much this game as changed my life for the better!

This is going to sound lame and cheesy, but Destiny has fundamentally shaped who I am as a person. I started playing when I was 14 right after Dark Below dropped. This game drew me in like nothing ever has before, the story, the tone, the setting, I loved it all. As I got older and began to deal with increasingly worse mental health issues, I found solace in its world, but most importantly, in the philosophical ideas it proposed. It helped me reshape my line of thinking into something more holistic and quite frankly healthy. I would not be the person I am today if it weren't for this game and the writers and developers who crafted such an incredible world. It's been a wonderful past 10 years with you all. I'll see you all starside.
This game is the glue that has held my friend group together for nearly a decade now. Despite all of us moving away from each other many years ago, we still have maintained a strong bond thanks to having one thing we can all share in common. That thing being Destiny. It’s not the perfect game, but it’s the one where I can hang out with my best friends, my brothers, and achieve things that most people cannot. Without this game, I doubt my friend group would have been able to last after being physically separated. Instead, we’ve become inseparable. No beef, no drama, nothing. Only brotherhood from the times we were 11/12 years old to 20/21 years old. And after waiting for Day 2 of the Final Shape (so we don’t have to deal with overloaded servers tomorrow) we will show the Witness what Guardians are truly capable of.
43:11 Surpass Infinite sounds like a track that plays as you're facing the final boss while you get flashbacks to every moment leading up to this one as you make the final push with your fireteam in a raid and I love it
That final track with the melody we heard all the way back during that 2013 GDC talk with Chris Barret and Joe Staten. Man. I wish I woulda waited to hear that in game.
A LOT of throwbacks to the vanilla D2 OST. Loving it so far. Also whoever's been putting the Beyond Light leitmotif hidden somewhere in the OST for the las 3 years: WE GET IT, you like it 😂😂. Edit: Enthropy was a mismatch of different races' theme (I heard cabal and also ahamkara at the end??) Prince of devotion also seems to have a ton of Forsaken stuff. It's either something Mara related or Ahamkara related (maybe the strike, for what we saw in one of bungo's vidoc) A knife in the garden was freaking amazing, probably my favorite so far. I'm guessing it's going to be a sad Zavala flashback before he gets tempted by the Witness idk Scientific obstinance is literally just the Forsken OST on crack (love it 😂) I was already loving A Gentle Kingdom and then it hit me with a mini-trowback to Journey. C'mon Bungie you're just teasing at this point. Stronger, Together almost made me tear up. So freaking epic. Final edit: lot's of throwbacks to all of D2, not as many to D1 as I thought there would be. Great stuff overall. Thanks to Michael Salvatori for 10 years of such an amazing and underappreciated soundtrack and best of wishes on his future projects. Se y'all tomorrow for the conclusion of this saga :')
@@Vid30g4m3r the OG motif literally appeared in the first track of the BL OST named "Beyond Light" and was brand new up to that point (except the pyramid stuff added in the theme). It was also heavily used in multiple songs of the DLC. I don't think it would've been incorrect to call it Beyond Light's leitmotif back when it came out but it is also obviously true that it has been completely repurposed. As a musician I just find it curious that it was specifically that motiff that got reused for future releases when it was clearly such a big part of BL. Since then I've noticed it has been used for Zavala speeches and Vanguard stuff so I guess it could be considered a Vanguard leitmotif (?) Anyway, I still think someone at Bungue just liked it a lot (probably Salvatori) and wanted to use it for more stuff 😂
@@jorgecabral4591idk how to break it to you but the first time we heard the “beyond light” motif was in 2017 a whole 3 years before beyond light came out LOL the second time it was used wasnt even BL it was shadowkeep and the only reason it was such a big part of beyond light is because the darkness was a huge part of it
@@ByaKyuren I'm not talking about the pyramid stuff. The one that played at the post credit scene of D2 vanilla. If you listen to the Beyond Light track (like the actual track) I'm referring to the theme that plays from second 40 onwards. That theme was unique to BL and very present through the entire DLC. Again, I'm not referring to the pyramid stuff which, yes, it has been used since 2017 and it returned since Shadowkeep for anything Darkness/Pyramid/Witness related. Go listen to the track and you'll know what theme I'm referring to.
This has been such an emotional and awesome journey!!! I can’t wait to dive in the last chapter of the light and darkness saga!! 10 years! I’m 37 now, and it just feels amazing to be alive to finish an amazing game like this! Eyes up GAURDIANS!!!
My favourite uncle showed me Destiny 1 when I was much younger many years ago.... After all the ups and downs we've been through, we're finally here at last, on the cusp of finality taking shape. Even if we lose, may we go out fighting!
10 years ago I got my PS4 Destiny bundle, Destiny was still missing a lot of content but getting the gear was so fun i played it every year until The Taken King ended, the same year as my college ended so I had no more time to play like before so it ended there for me. When we talked about that this game has a 10 year plan it seemed crazy long time. Now a decade has almost passed which is insane! Time flies when you grow up.. enjoy your youth kids!
@24:08 Prince of devotion, what a track!! Listening to it, I got the feeling that Crow is going to die tomorrow in some sacrifice, in an attempt to save Cayde 😢😢
01:03:18. I try not to listen to it because it makes me feel so sad and nostalgic. Thank you Bungie. This expansion is the perfect ending. I only started playing Destiny with Beyond Light, but since then it's been the game I play constantly. Here's to another 10 years!
As someone who grew up playing the destiny franchise knowing this is gunna be the end of the last 10 years of my life hearing all these amazing tracks is actually making me tear up.
I love you Bungie. Thanks for all the hard work, blood, sweat, and tears over the last decade. I've made some of my most cherished memories on this game. Tomorrow, we make our fate.
i started playing destiny during house of wolves on the xbox. i remember my brother let me borrow his copy of the game and i fell in love with destiny ever since! it's been an amazing 10 years of destiny and here's to another 10 ladies and gentlemen!
Started playing D1 when I was 12 and me and my dad would run nightfalls and raids every week. My dad kind of fell off of D2 but i'm still just as hooked. This is a huge milestone for all of you at bungie and the playbase.
We have come a long way from shooting into a cave for hours and fighting an immortal Hive Knight in the Cosmodrone. Can’t believe it’s been a decade already. Hopefully we get another 10 years from this great world Bungie has created. I’ll pour one out for the fellow guardians that couldn’t make it ❤️
Precipice, I speculate but we won't know until the raid, might be the raid final encounter. It carries the dark and erratic energy of the Witness, utilizing the same motifs from Witch Queen and Lightfall. And it sounds so freaking cool! GGs to the music team for this awesome finale of an OST ❤
Unmade has a DPS phase and a final stand like oneirophobia and first disciple. It’s likely that. Edit: After finishing the legend campaign, it’s definitely Unmade
10 years of playing this game. 10 years of enjoying those top tier musics. 10 years of undesrtanding lore through videos. Like a good friendship, it somehow, has to end
I was 9 when I started in taken king Im now 19 Doing it for my friends who don't play anymore, the 4 who still do 2 of who are on my fireteam, and for Lance.
It was an epic and awesome journey, although it had it's many ups and downs one thing kept me playing, the friends made, the story, and yes, the loot, everything was amazing!! I hope you get to enjoy and love Destiny 3 and experience new horizons, eyes up Guardian!!
We’ve been through our rough spots. But this game brings us guardians together no matter how we play, what we do or how we feel this is the end before a new beginning. Let’s become legend together!
boy, i sure wish the genius who led the composition of this masterpiece of a soundtrack still worked at the company that he helped build with his bare hands and that he wasn’t, you know, callously laid off out of the blue.
I joined pretty late into Destiny compared to others (Season of Arrivals, right before Beyond Light), but I've never come across anything quite like this game. I don't know what it is, but there is something special here, and I'm really glad I arrived at the time I did.
I just cried while i was listening "After All this Time"... Reminds me Journey... That's so epic and sad. Wonderul... Love you Bungie. Since the first Halo, when i was only 10yo... I'll be there until the very end of Destiny. Thanks for everything. Really. Send you all love and respect from France. ❤
@@swouse8182 You're a grown man crying over someone else's hobby/passion in a youtube comment section. Get serious and get a life. I genuinely hope you find something that brings you joy like video games do for others.
It's impossible for me not to thank you for all this 10 years of friendship, adventures and absolutely out of this world epic music, Bungie. I'll remeber these moments forever!
10 years have led us to this moment and I couldn't be prouder. Here's to the next 10 years Destiny!
Lol if this dlc isn't good bungie might not have ten years
Same here Guardian. On to the Pale Heart.
This is the end!
The low standards all of you bootlickers have will never fail to make me laugh 🤣
Same here we fight this war together FOR THE LAST CITY!
"After all these years... we never talked about it. Why I brought you back. Why you were chosen. The truth is... I didn't know then. It was just a feeling. But I know now. After all we've seen... all we've lost... this fight might be our last. So I'm asking you one last time... to rise."

For Michael Salvatori! He deserves to be here and on the team.
I think he finished his work: hence: why he was laid off. Maybe he wanted it to minimize casualties I dunno but that makes the most sense to me.

Hoping tomorrow they'd stand strong in the fight.
The Ghosts nestled snug in their shells,
Dreaming of victories their stories would tell.

Awaited the dawn with a mix of hope and fear.
The Traveler shone brightly, a beacon of light,
Signaling the end of the Shadow and night.
This was the moment, the saga's grand close,
The final chapter, where legend arose.
So remember this night, as history we'll make,
With courage and Light, our destiny we stake.
T'was the night before The Final Shape, indeed,
And into the darkness, our Light would lead.

Getting hearted by bungie is actually an awesome achievement
19:40 that little bit of Beyond Light
Best beyond light motif
1:09:46 and now i hear avengers music
almost certain this leitmotif is older than beyond light
@@retronax4346 the dark leitmotif is as old as D2 but this is Beyond Light's "theme"
there is taniks leaks tbf this may be it
Dude the bit at 55:30 to 55:52 in Coruscate is SO good
"Making Your Own Fate" having "All Ends Are Beginnings" mixed in is actually crazy
And having Untold Legends mixed in it too is amazing!
When it came up in the song tears came to my eyes I won't lie
In Stronger, Together you can hear a heroic sounding Savathun theme. Oh buddy I hope we will be fighting along side her even if she isn't a permanent ally
Wait your right, gods i cannot wait
Lucent Brood things? They live in our universe, too... would be a shame to see it disappear.
I hope she and her light/lucent brood become allied after a while. If we found common ground with the Fallen and the Cabal, then we can do the same with the Hive.
I’d be willing to bet a lot of money that they do become a temporary ally. The Witness wants to end all things, to stop time itself and end existence. Savathûn may be treacherous and crave power, but if the Witness wins, there is no life for her and her brood - she has no choice, she must align with those who are fighting for life and existence itself.
It's hard to say. I watched Datto and Skillup's preview videos and they did a good job of censoring it, but IGN's review showed them fighting a follower of Savathun inside the Pale Heart as one of the patrol activity bosses. I guess we should remember whilst we share a common foe with Savathun, she is not our ally or friend.
I grew up playing the first Destiny game with my dad. I was around 11 or 12 at the time. He used to burn CD’s with soundtracks from video games and movies, and he had the soundtrack from the first game on it. We would always listen to it in his car whenever we drove somewhere. Now that The Final Shape has arrived, it makes me a bit sad knowing this is the last major release for Destiny. But I’ll always have those memories to hold on to. Thank you Bungie for letting us be able to make all those memories for the last 10 years!
This is most definitely not the last large major release, bungie have been very clear about that.
More memories are sure to come, Guardian. Bungie said they'll keep working on this game in the future, this is merely the end of one story. Maybe our fate will begin another?
01:34:21 Witness boss raid music!
The hero I needed.
Hope In Bloom is just stunning and especially made the scene with Cayde giving his light to our ghost so emotional.
“Only echoes remain” at 1:53:38 has me really excited for what might come next
The Witness theme from WQ sat launch had so much dread, but this is something else…
Gave Zavala a kiss on his forehead before the servers were taken down :)
Respect
I just sat next to him for an hour.🖤
I helped him edge.
Michael Salvatori and the music team never disappointed, I'm so glad they at least got to play their part in year 10 of the franchise. Eyes up guardians!
10 years ago I started my journey with my best friend and 10 years later here we are. Finishing the story.
Thank you Bungie.
1:28:14 has got to be the most hype piece here
Bruh this hasn’t even been out for 15 minutes how tf did you get over an hour through💀💀
@@lazzmaster7376 listened to it already from some guy who reposted it yesterday
Gives me Aksis vibes. That’s a very very good thing.
It's a close race between that and Coruscate for me. Both build throughout and constantly shift themes; truly some of the best songs I've heard from Destiny, and that's saying something.
Surpass infinite is suck a hopeful song and I love it
Thank you Bungie music team.
Got my godslayer title last night and I'm so ready for Final Shape been playing since I was in highschool now im a father of 3 and I've been waiting for this moment forever proud to be here guardians and remember eyes up and I'll see you all star side!
Return to a dream might be one of my favorite pieces of destiny music ever, its so majestic and tragic and herioc. it really feels like the end
A beautiful piece👌🏻
It sounds like a part of the Battlefield 5 Legacy theme.
10 years of life just flashed before my eyes
I LOOOVEEE 1:36:26!! Beautiful composition, guys. It's a beautiful Euphony!!
lol the name of the raid exotic weapon
I was about ten or so when i picked the game up, and I have never put it down since. I truly love this game, through its highs and lows, Taken King's to Shadowkeep's, if you will...
Thank you Bungie, for making this amazing game, experience, and journey for myself and countless others to enjoy.
See you all tomorrow afternoon!
1:55:59 The Marty O’Donnell Halo vibes is giving me a tear. God I am gonna cry hard during the end credits.
My god, this is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever experienced. Thank you to everyone who worked on the ost for final shape and bungie as a whole. Fan service in audio form, Simply a masterpiece.
Someone’s definitely dying tomorrow 😢
I might have joined this community back in rise of iron which was a little late but I have been here ever since. Going from the red war to forsaken to shadow keep which felt a little weird but from then on it looked like the story was actually going somewhere and I can’t wait to see the conclusion of said story when I face the witness tomorrow along side the two of my best friends that I met playing this game and the one before it. although we aren’t the best of players out there that’s for sure we still work well together and they are defiantly some of the best friends I could have ever asked for and I would never change that. While all is said and done I want to thank you Bungie with all my heart for bringing this game into the world and allowing me to make friendships like no other so Thank you. Also I want to thank the community for helping me over the years with any raids , dungeons , GMs you name it Im also looking forward to more runs down the road so see you out there little lights from yours truly CobraxxYT.
Not always about the skills mate, it’s more important you enjoy and bond with your friends over it. I’ve been playing with my friends since beta D1 and we’re finishing the fight together, that’s what counts
WE FULFILLING OUR DUTY AS GUARDIANS WITH DIS ONE
The last chord…. I was at work and I didn’t realize it but I stopped everything I was doing and just hung in that chord. Wonderful job on this score. Words do not express the thanks we have for this team and the amazing abilities all of the people involved with the creation of this score. Absolute perfection… thank you deeply.
It makes me sad this potentially might be the last ost to have the Witness & Traveler motfs
33:53 This must be for the Witness's race, love how beautiful it is, almost heavenly - to then turn into a hellish motif of the Witness at the end.
1:23:52 Funny that the Witness's whispers ended up getting a theme. I think this is for the Veiled/cloaked figures we've seen, i believe they represent the Penitent of the Witness's race, since we see one of them holding what appears to be a glass shard at Zavala (the Witness has a theme of breaking glass) aswell as the Witness using one of the many figures around Zavala as a mouthpiece to speak to him.
1:25:13Assuming this is the Witness, this references what was talked about in Unveiling & Inspiral, how the Gardener & Winnower "discover" The First Knife. "In absence of a hand, either the flowers themselves must rise up to wield the knife, or the garden will resolve to meaningless wilderness." This calls back to what Ahsa said, the Witness's race craved a Winnower, so they "merged themselves into the salvation they craved". They became a Winnower since the Veil wasnt doing its role as the Winnower
“Make your own fate” is my FAVORITE song I’ve ever heard from Destiny. It pumps me up and makes me feel powerful and invincible every time I hear it. Absolutely the BEST song ever made for Destiny!!! And “After all this time” is my second favorite because of how it makes me remember all of those good times I’ve had in Destiny and how much this game as changed my life for the better!
I was 11 years old when I first played Destiny. Now I’m almost 21 and I’ll get a job real soon. This game has been there for me like no other game has
"Get a job soon" 💀💀💀

He wasn't the only composer
”well actually ahhhh comment” 🤓☝️
@@bigfloppa9594 Yea but he's been with Bungie forever almost
We finish the fight on Friday ** last mission isn't unlocked until post raid completion
@@icrocifisso Now I can't make the comment!
This is going to sound lame and cheesy, but Destiny has fundamentally shaped who I am as a person.
I started playing when I was 14 right after Dark Below dropped. This game drew me in like nothing ever has before, the story, the tone, the setting, I loved it all. As I got older and began to deal with increasingly worse mental health issues, I found solace in its world, but most importantly, in the philosophical ideas it proposed. It helped me reshape my line of thinking into something more holistic and quite frankly healthy.
I would not be the person I am today if it weren't for this game and the writers and developers who crafted such an incredible world.
It's been a wonderful past 10 years with you all. I'll see you all starside.
What a journey it has been...all these years...to be at the end...thank you, bungie.
This game is the glue that has held my friend group together for nearly a decade now. Despite all of us moving away from each other many years ago, we still have maintained a strong bond thanks to having one thing we can all share in common. That thing being Destiny. It’s not the perfect game, but it’s the one where I can hang out with my best friends, my brothers, and achieve things that most people cannot. Without this game, I doubt my friend group would have been able to last after being physically separated. Instead, we’ve become inseparable. No beef, no drama, nothing. Only brotherhood from the times we were 11/12 years old to 20/21 years old.
And after waiting for Day 2 of the Final Shape (so we don’t have to deal with overloaded servers tomorrow) we will show the Witness what Guardians are truly capable of.
1:44:41 this feels like either raid boss or campaign boss
Thin Precipice
Witness raid final Battle
7:40 Battlefield 1 vets will remember how much this motif resembles "The Flight of the Pigeon". It's note for note!
What…the…hell? There is…no difference at all.
Ahh mark V… my beloved
I knew it sounded familiar
i hear it, god tier soundtrack as well
43:11 Surpass Infinite sounds like a track that plays as you're facing the final boss while you get flashbacks to every moment leading up to this one as you make the final push with your fireteam in a raid and I love it
That final track with the melody we heard all the way back during that 2013 GDC talk with Chris Barret and Joe Staten. Man. I wish I woulda waited to hear that in game.
A LOT of throwbacks to the vanilla D2 OST. Loving it so far.
Also whoever's been putting the Beyond Light leitmotif hidden somewhere in the OST for the las 3 years: WE GET IT, you like it 😂😂.
Edit: Enthropy was a mismatch of different races' theme (I heard cabal and also ahamkara at the end??)
Prince of devotion also seems to have a ton of Forsaken stuff. It's either something Mara related or Ahamkara related (maybe the strike, for what we saw in one of bungo's vidoc)
A knife in the garden was freaking amazing, probably my favorite so far. I'm guessing it's going to be a sad Zavala flashback before he gets tempted by the Witness idk
Scientific obstinance is literally just the Forsken OST on crack (love it 😂)
I was already loving A Gentle Kingdom and then it hit me with a mini-trowback to Journey. C'mon Bungie you're just teasing at this point.
Stronger, Together almost made me tear up. So freaking epic.
Final edit: lot's of throwbacks to all of D2, not as many to D1 as I thought there would be. Great stuff overall.
Thanks to Michael Salvatori for 10 years of such an amazing and underappreciated soundtrack and best of wishes on his future projects.
Se y'all tomorrow for the conclusion of this saga :')
I don't think the leitmotif is only beyond light's, i think it belongs to the darkness.
@@Vid30g4m3r the OG motif literally appeared in the first track of the BL OST named "Beyond Light" and was brand new up to that point (except the pyramid stuff added in the theme). It was also heavily used in multiple songs of the DLC.
I don't think it would've been incorrect to call it Beyond Light's leitmotif back when it came out but it is also obviously true that it has been completely repurposed.
As a musician I just find it curious that it was specifically that motiff that got reused for future releases when it was clearly such a big part of BL.
Since then I've noticed it has been used for Zavala speeches and Vanguard stuff so I guess it could be considered a Vanguard leitmotif (?)
Anyway, I still think someone at Bungue just liked it a lot (probably Salvatori) and wanted to use it for more stuff 😂
@@jorgecabral4591idk how to break it to you but the first time we heard the “beyond light” motif was in 2017 a whole 3 years before beyond light came out LOL
the second time it was used wasnt even BL it was shadowkeep and the only reason it was such a big part of beyond light is because the darkness was a huge part of it
I have a feeling Prince of Devotion is Crow's theme, or at least has to do with him. He's literally a prince.
@@ByaKyuren I'm not talking about the pyramid stuff. The one that played at the post credit scene of D2 vanilla.
If you listen to the Beyond Light track (like the actual track) I'm referring to the theme that plays from second 40 onwards. That theme was unique to BL and very present through the entire DLC.
Again, I'm not referring to the pyramid stuff which, yes, it has been used since 2017 and it returned since Shadowkeep for anything Darkness/Pyramid/Witness related.
Go listen to the track and you'll know what theme I'm referring to.
Unmade, Precipice, The First Knife 😳
Love the reference :)
Here comes the winnower
ALL OF THEM
How about Veiled 💀
Nice this is the first day at my new job and this comes out!! now I have something to listen.
The fact that there's a track called "First Knife" has me extremely hyped for the possible lore implications.
This has been such an emotional and awesome journey!!! I can’t wait to dive in the last chapter of the light and darkness saga!! 10 years! I’m 37 now, and it just feels amazing to be alive to finish an amazing game like this! Eyes up GAURDIANS!!!
Dude having All Ends Are Beginnings in Make Your Own Fate is too fire
My favourite uncle showed me Destiny 1 when I was much younger many years ago.... After all the ups and downs we've been through, we're finally here at last, on the cusp of finality taking shape. Even if we lose, may we go out fighting!
A WHOLE DECADE FOR THIS MOMENT THIS BATTLE !
Wake up GUARDIANS we have a god to slay !
10 years ago I got my PS4 Destiny bundle, Destiny was still missing a lot of content but getting the gear was so fun i played it every year until The Taken King ended, the same year as my college ended so I had no more time to play like before so it ended there for me. When we talked about that this game has a 10 year plan it seemed crazy long time. Now a decade has almost passed which is insane! Time flies when you grow up.. enjoy your youth kids!
@24:08 Prince of devotion, what a track!! Listening to it, I got the feeling that Crow is going to die tomorrow in some sacrifice, in an attempt to save Cayde 😢😢
good f Crow
01:03:18. I try not to listen to it because it makes me feel so sad and nostalgic. Thank you Bungie. This expansion is the perfect ending. I only started playing Destiny with Beyond Light, but since then it's been the game I play constantly. Here's to another 10 years!
The last piece of Salvatori/Sechrist for Destiny right here. the GOATS
And Skye Lewin sadly :/
I only started at ShadowKeep, but I have enjoyed every moment since then. Thanks for a great experience on this journey.
As someone who grew up playing the destiny franchise knowing this is gunna be the end of the last 10 years of my life hearing all these amazing tracks is actually making me tear up.
I love you Bungie. Thanks for all the hard work, blood, sweat, and tears over the last decade. I've made some of my most cherished memories on this game. Tomorrow, we make our fate.
I was only 17 when I first started playing Destiny Im now 27, I feel very lucky, I know there are some who never got to see this.
i started playing destiny during house of wolves on the xbox. i remember my brother let me borrow his copy of the game and i fell in love with destiny ever since! it's been an amazing 10 years of destiny and here's to another 10 ladies and gentlemen!
Based. I also started during House of Wolves. On the Xbox 360 in my case
What an amazing Soundtrack. I sure hope the creative geniuses who composed it were treated with respect and not fired before it's release.

Started playing D1 when I was 12 and me and my dad would run nightfalls and raids every week. My dad kind of fell off of D2 but i'm still just as hooked. This is a huge milestone for all of you at bungie and the playbase.
We have come a long way from shooting into a cave for hours and fighting an immortal Hive Knight in the Cosmodrone. Can’t believe it’s been a decade already. Hopefully we get another 10 years from this great world Bungie has created.
I’ll pour one out for the fellow guardians that couldn’t make it ❤️
18:40 Getting strong “It’s never been this serious ,but here we are preparing to fix it and that’s okay” vibes from this one segment. I love it
might have ruined the whole expansion
Everyone, it’s been an honor.
This was absolutely amazing. Thank you to everyone involved! ❤
Say what you want about Destiny but the soundtrack never misses
until now you mean.. Now that Salvatori is gone, well...
Started on 2019, from a new light to Paragon. I'M COMING FOR YOU WITNESS.
1:55:59 the nostalgia to end off the OST. Beautiful. Marty is smiling somewhere, wherever he is.
D1 ost is still my favorite.
Been playing Destiny since I was 5. This has been one hell of a journey guys. See yall in the pale heart o7
Precipice, I speculate but we won't know until the raid, might be the raid final encounter. It carries the dark and erratic energy of the Witness, utilizing the same motifs from Witch Queen and Lightfall. And it sounds so freaking cool! GGs to the music team for this awesome finale of an OST ❤
Unmade has a DPS phase and a final stand like oneirophobia and first disciple. It’s likely that.
Edit: After finishing the legend campaign, it’s definitely Unmade
first encounter😭😭😭
1:58:50 That's "All Ends are Beginnings" and "A Walk in The Woods" together.
Started in my early 20s
Now im in my early 30s
Time flies
Really hope it ends on a high note
Started when I was 13, barely persuaded my parents to let me buy a “T” rated game - now I’m 23 and engaged and have two degrees - absolutely wild man.
@@gimlithebrave6354 Congratulations, its crazy how time flies
Started mid teens, now I’m mid 20s. 9 years strong for me!
Same here! Started D1 beta when I was 21 and in college, now I am 32 and got a job, still playing Destiny xD
10 years of playing this game. 10 years of enjoying those top tier musics. 10 years of undesrtanding lore through videos. Like a good friendship, it somehow, has to end
1:03:18 i'm gonna miss the composer of this one a whole lot... wonder why he is gone
I was 9 when I started in taken king
Im now 19
Doing it for my friends who don't play anymore, the 4 who still do 2 of who are on my fireteam, and for Lance.
I'm only 17, this game grew up with me.
Almost a decade for me. That's insane to think about
It was an epic and awesome journey, although it had it's many ups and downs one thing kept me playing, the friends made, the story, and yes, the loot, everything was amazing!! I hope you get to enjoy and love Destiny 3 and experience new horizons, eyes up Guardian!!
We’ve been through our rough spots. But this game brings us guardians together no matter how we play, what we do or how we feel this is the end before a new beginning. Let’s become legend together!
boy, i sure wish the genius who led the composition of this masterpiece of a soundtrack still worked at the company that he helped build with his bare hands and that he wasn’t, you know, callously laid off out of the blue.
It’s been 8 months get over it
@@tomfoolery597no :)
I joined pretty late into Destiny compared to others (Season of Arrivals, right before Beyond Light), but I've never come across anything quite like this game. I don't know what it is, but there is something special here, and I'm really glad I arrived at the time I did.
Welcome to the party pall
Keep in mind, these are the last songs composed by Michael Salvatori
The music that has carried me through my teenage years and many hard times. Thank you so much for all of the good memories, and good ones to come.
I just cried while i was listening "After All this Time"... Reminds me Journey... That's so epic and sad. Wonderul...
Love you Bungie. Since the first Halo, when i was only 10yo...
I'll be there until the very end of Destiny.
Thanks for everything. Really.
Send you all love and respect from France. ❤

1:49:12 this is probably final Battle
10 years… many memories, many friends. I begin on Destiny 1 Beta and now I can admit I can’t see myself without Destiny. Eyes up, Guardians.
"Precipice" and "Make your Own Fate" definitely sounds like raid or the final mission after the raid music
It's impossible for me not to thank you for all this 10 years of friendship, adventures and absolutely out of this world epic music, Bungie. I'll remeber these moments forever!
Would love to have the orbit music post witness on here. It is so soothing.
BTW, worth the ten year experience. Now is one of those sail into the sunset moments. 10 years of emotion capped off with banger.
it is, its called "A Knife in the Garden"
Thank you Bungie for all the memories and friendships i have made these 10 years because of Destiny. I'm looking forward to more years as well.
