There is, however, such a thing as light dark matter
Because scientists sometimes suck at naming things

I have a question about the campaign, if anyone can answer. I'm partway through, step 19 of 31. Ikora was smack-talking the Archon over comms, and mentions something like "You can't use the singularity to get to III". But III hasn't been named once yet. Even after possessing Lodi, it doesn't identify itself. Did I miss something? I feel like the narrative is jumping ahead of itself.
fluid peak
You missed something in that you should probably just.. finish the campaign.
wary rose
It just doesn't make sense that suddenly she knows that's what's on the other side. I've been following as slowly as I can and she just up and says that.
fluid peak
At that point in the campaign (if memory serves) ikora has pointed out that The Giver the archon talks about is probably III, and that the archon intends to use the singularity to reach the giver
The singularity =/= III
wary rose
The only thing said so far is that the Archon stole their power from the Giver, not that the Giver is III.
fluid peak
Again, in the interest of not spoiling you please continue the campaign I promise things make sense eventually
wary rose
I hope. At this point it just feels like a skip in the narrative.
fluid peak
I've ran the campaign a few times and I'm pretty sure there's a line or two about similarities being drawn between III and the giver
slim girder
The side quests help provide a lot of context and fill in gaps. Would recommend doing those every now and again as you do the campaign

Did Orin have to kill her ghost to become emissary
queen swallow
No
agile panther
What happened to it then? Or is it alive and sheās still a guardian?
queen swallow
Most of what we know comes from the "Invitations of the Nine" mission from Season of the Drifter. During this quest, we see Orin, as the Emissary, floating with what appears to be a representation of a ghost next to her. It falls to the ground as The Nine say "You lost everything." This has been taken to represent that Gol, Orin's ghost, died. We do not explicitly know whether or not she killed it or if the Nine did it, but I don't think she did it.

so basically, the 1st and last encounter are both in the same area
it's just that the Tree of Silver Wings that was growing throughout the raid heavily shifted Essence's (The Witness' Pyramid) terrain
and throughout the raid, Nezarec's body was reforming
at the start, you can see it's just his head in there, but more of the body appears as the raid progresses

there isn't a map of the entire area, but it probably wouldn't be possibly anyways since the area the raid takes place in shifts around and changes
the terraformation beam already did a number on Essence, but the Tree growing (presumably through our actions in the raid) just made things move around even more
dim minnow
And do you see the sarcophagus in any other encounters? What does the explicator...
as for the Explicator, he was moreso doing his own thing hence why Nezarec wanted us to "tear that useless sack of meat apart". He was presumably using the planets thing to search for worlds belonging to the Cabal Empire

blazing wasp
some guy got bit by a snake and died, the guy watching it got inspired
Yakuza ass backstory
dim minnow
reminds me about how the Awoken were created because of a rabbit embryo
slim girder
whatās the lore behind VEIST
They're a weapons foundry. Probably Australian with all the spiders, snakes and other venomous creature inspiration.
dim minnow
we have some info about how that place is doing
blazing wasp
Getting inspired by watching some guy dying from a snake sounds like something a yakuza protag would do before unlocking a new fighting style
dim minnow
Hawkesbury got flooded and is now the Hawkesbury sea where an order of Warlocks known as the Fighting Dharug organize to preserve the remaining wildlife in the region
cloud glacier
eh, not as fun as Old Chicago
dim minnow
some guy got bit by a snake and died, the guy watching it got inspired
Anyway, that's where VEIST comes from. The inspiration, I mean. Weapons with all the power of a venomous creature. Plus an onboard AI with that creature's killer instincts.
And now there's the Colony. A grenade launcher packed with fully mobile, AI-controlled insectoid detonators, each one designed with a taste for blood.
We've made some pretty messed-up stuff. You've probably seen it. You know. But we've never made anything like the Colony before.```Also I think the there is genuine credit to veist having Australian heritage given 2 of their weapons are named after Australian wildlife.
Funnelweb, ikranji.
dim minnow
the implications that each VEIST weapon has an onboard AI based on the specific venomous predator it's based on are interesting to say the least
dim minnow
yeah, but that's just because Australia is where all the bad animals live
cloud glacier
America has some bad animals too
dim minnow
yeah, but Aussies got a lot of the venomous ones
blazing wasp
the komodo dragon is also pretty fucked up, which they had a weapon from
dim minnow
yeah, VEIST weaponry includes cratures all over the world
slim girder

You might be mauled by a bear. Buy at least you won't die in under 15 minutes from a spider with fangs big enough to go through shoe leather or an octopus the size of a 50cent coin with a painless bite that'll shut your organs down
Or a nearly invisible jellyfish that even when dead can still hurt you just from a stray tentacle grazing you
blazing wasp
bears are pretty brutal too actually
but i cannot elaborate on this server me thinks.

The whip scorpion is another cutscene from Australia
A blue veist smg with tap the trigger
slim girder
Was just about to say that
I wanna say osteo striga could definitely be derived from a veist SMG and with the whole venomous deal it'd make sense
dim minnow
while the weapon itself is made by Jana-14, it's frame definitely is based on VEIST smgs
slim girder
I wouldn't be surprised if just like thorn it was a veist SMG turned into what it is now through killing and hive magics. Not to mention the bones of the ones jana 14 murdered
As is the method for creating a weapon of sorrow
dim minnow
VEIST wasn't a thing back in D1 so that's not very likely
we actually have the exact weapon Thorn used to be actually
Rose
blazing wasp
Which we made into lumina
dim minnow
which got corrupted into the OG Thorn which we then purified back into Rose, then we infused Rose with Light to make it into Lumina
slim girder
VEIST wasn't a thing back in D1 so that's not very likely
Well jana 14 was doing her "research" during the time before the red war. I think veist definitely existed at that time.
slim girder
I know but I'm just saying that's when all of that started. Obviously Jana 14 saw that and after some time osteo striga was created by her. Again I said it might be the same process that created thorn where a veist SMG was changed over time through dark hive magic (maybe from the necrotic grips even) and the bones jana "fed" to the weapon after murdering someone
dim minnow
well Rose turned into Thorn because Rezyl grafted a Hive bone onto it so you may be onto something there
but the SMG itself must be post-Red War since it is VEIST
slim girder
Samples of her own fellow researcher who was infected by that corrosive power must have "leaked" onto her weapon possibly.
Reyzl hears whispers coming from the bone he grafted to his rose so maybe that same energy whispered to jana? You can see her becoming a lot more enthralled by how the necrosis worked on living targets
Maybe an infected tissue sample which is what we can see on the actual necrotic grips is what caused the transformation and the bones of janas victims are what transformed the once veist appearing SMG into the osteo striga

why is Veist's "krait" called that and not "bungarus"

which could give us a hint as to what exactly the effects III's death will have
slim girder
If they're a keystone then maybe the nines existence as a whole is what governs those other forces. Like imagine putting a face to gravity if that makes sense. Kill that being and then that force goes away
dim minnow
maybe not go away, but go looney
since III is tied to Earth, perhaps its death will affect Earth specifically
slim girder
Yeah, Allison from narrative did also say there would be a sense of creeping dread as time went forward due to this very unnatural death of such a force
Maya just murdered one of the biggest forces in possibly the universe in a tantrum so there's going to be consequences to that
dim minnow
what if something related to the Red War gets pulled forward
or someone
and that could be part of what kicks of Renegades
there's also indication that IV is going to cause Renegades
or will be related to it
slim girder
No clue. 3 pulled things through time but we don't know if the other nine possess other abilities or if that's the same among all members
dim minnow
since IV and III were probably the closest two members of the Nine could be to best friends
or lovers?
idk, what's important is that III and IV were close
and III's death is making IV very reckless as stated when IV itself claimed that grief was making it not care abotu the rules
slim girder
there's also indication that IV is going to cause Renegades
If i had to guess maybe this "bind the nine" thing might actually be each member binding to us as a sort of deal. We help them deal with this new dredgen since paracasual forces can pose problems and in return they help us. Though i can't say the outer orbits would be so friendly given what we know
And again i'm curious if other members have different abilities. not anything massively drastic but maybe they just manipulate things like time in different ways.
3 sends trains, 7 sends planes
And 8 sends a boat.
That kind of thing
dim minnow
I kinda just think they can all do the same things at a base level
slim girder
Plus 3 was innocent, the other members could very much become antagonistic towards us
dim minnow
I kinda just think they can all do the same things at a base level
of course a member of the Nine can learn and harness a new power like VI is doing with the Taken

And ngl that humanoid form design looks creepy asf

And Taking has terrible potential if wielded by a mind more nuanced than Oryx's. Taking involves reforming matter in a self-contained reality, where the creator defines past, present, and future; imagine how a more insightful being could expand these definitions, to different ends. Overcoming a target's will must consume a large portion of energy. What if you used that energy for larger shifts in reality? You could teleport an army into a Hive mothershipā¦ move a fleet outside time and spaceā¦ perhaps even alter a moon's orbit, devastating the planet below. The military applications could be far graver than simply creating an army. - Ophiuchus

Yeah obviously
Zavala has no ghost and Crow isnt on her level
grand jungle
id love to see guardian 1v1 ikora
river surge
I think Ikora was always the strongest vanguard member idk why
sick yew
She is the lead vanguard now
Being lead Vanguard doesnt inherently have anything to do with strength
Its likely she could best Zavala but he remained top dog of the Vanguard due to his tactical expertise

She always had that cool unique vibe

Nah Bungo get to fucking work and give us something like this

This is why the Consensus were formed
It was a fix the Speaker came up with to make the Lightless also have some saying in how the Last City should be run not just the Lightbearers
grand jungle

Dead Orbit, Future War Cult, New Monarchy and that 4th faction that got banished to the old Tower

Dead Orbit, Future War Cult, New Monarchy and that 4th faction that got banished...
Future War Cult was Mayas right?
sick yew
Correct
sick yew
Actually Lakshmi*
river surge
Well one of the founders
grand jungle
did he hv a ghost or was he a pope of the guardian
sick yew
He was a normal human
river surge
Actually Lakshmi*
Ues I wanted to mention that
grand jungle
man was norm n he speaked shit to ghaul? respect
river surge
Ghaul was just a coward
sick yew
But yeah basically the Vanguard ruled the Last City and they implemented the Consensus as glorified advisors so the Lightless people would feel like their voices mattered too
grand jungle
if thiefs were in d2 would they send cops or guardians?
sick yew
Lightbearers Patrol the Last City streets
Afaik its not clear whether theres a civilian police too but id guess so
river surge
When u realise there are still Ghosts looking for their chosens
Thats why The Traveler wont create more I think
grand jungle
bro imagine robbing someone n a fcking strand titan come at you
would a solar titan hammer tear a normal human in pieces?
sick yew
Absolutely
I dont believe Guardians ever really use their abilities when dealing with Civilians
sick yew
Thats why The Traveler wont create more I think
It doesnt seem like the Traveler will ever create more Ghosts
grand jungle
what bout just they fist?
river surge
It doesnt seem like the Traveler will ever create more Ghosts
Who was the first Guardian ever created
I wanna know that
river surge
I wonder if its even alive anymore
sick yew
I can tell you some of the first Lightbearers we actually know of
Drifter, Shaxx, Saladin and Felwinter to name a few
sick yew
Kept his light a secret and then one day some Iron Lords and Warlords started fighting in the town
Small girl got caught in the crossfire and died in his arms
sick yew
Drifter had a miserable early existence
river surge
Why cant we just have something like this
In future expansions were the characters are actually characters and not fucking gods
grand jungle
we dont know drifters name do we

Do NOT make it live action
Under no circumstances should a Destiny movie or show be live action
slim girder
what bout just they fist?
They don't. Back in the dark ages a normal person wouldn't be living if they defied a at the time warlord.
Most recent lore I think we have of a hostile guardian and human interaction was when crow pointed Hawkmoon at some civilians attempting to sabotage some ether reserves.
grand jungle
tho if a guardian wanted to stop a survy they could just hold them not hit them
sick yew
How we doing it
Animated obviously, 3d would probably fit best with Destinys existing artstyle
slim girder
I've heard some people say they want destiny in edgerunnners or arcane style animation
sick yew
Destiny could also work in 2d animation absolutely
river surge
Destiny would fit better as an animated where its almost real
Just dont make it too live action style
Keep it animated but close to much realist
But yeah a Destiny movie would be insane

Go watch Indipendence Day and stop before the Humans start winning lmfao

Yeah and independece day happend on Earth
sick yew
So did the bulk of the collapse
Only other places where shit went down was Titan
In the Collapse everyone just kinda died
river surge
But u can add scenes about Titan and how the Earth was destroyed and how The Traveler sacrificed
Savathun betrayal
There are many things u can add that would make the watcher interested
Not to mention based on Lodi cutscene we see that during collapse the rain turned into acid and there was nuclear war? There are many things u can possibily add in it
slim girder
Not to mention based on Lodi cutscene we see that during collapse the rain turne...
The things the witness did to humanity during collapse just because it hated the traveler were pretty disturbing.
Acid clouds leaving not even bones behind, creatures slaughtering people, "grabbing" titan and turning it into a egg before letting go causing an apocalyptic methane tsunami, etc
It saw our golden age as an insult to its ideals so destroyed basically all of it in anger.
river surge
Wasnt it Nezarec that commanded the whole attack
The Witness was most likely there but Nezarec was probably the one who commanded how the attack would go, and sinde he is the "god of pain" he basically commanded to be left nothing
slim girder
Nezarec was under orders from the witness. Yes he would have definitely enjoyed causing suffering but the witness also had a personal grudge against the traveler and all it gave the light to.
Hell it calls our ghost an "insolent speck" in a pretty threatening way. Almost anything to do with the traveler seems to really make it lose composure
So seeing a whole civilisation blessed by it would have definitely made it go all out
river surge
Also The Witness voice in that scene went from that female echo voice to a angered male echo voice
Idk if I am tweaking or smth
slim girder
Did you know that every "voice" of the witness is just one person? They are just having their voice altered to sound different
It's all one VA doing the work of a being made up of many voices
river surge
Did you know that every "voice" of the witness is just one person? They are just...
Never knew that actually
I actually thought it was a single voice but the echoes kept coming from others that were part of it
slim girder
No. All voices from the witness are one VA just having their voice altered or talking differently.
His name is Brett Dalton
sick yew
Bungie employing actual hive magic when creating the filters for Brett
No other way possible

'Brett Dalton' is actually a cover name. they keep Riven in a box in the basement and use her for voices sometimes

Riven ever spoke with her true voice?

Riven ever spoke with her true voice?
Season of the wish. She even tells us that because of our partnership that she is speaking with her true voice.

The whole season except for that one time she mimicked shaxx she was using her real voice

Is the pale heart physically inside the Traveller in the conventional sense, or is the pale heart inside some sort of pocket dimension that is inside the traveler?
sick yew
Is the pale heart physically inside the Traveller in the conventional sense, or ...
The latter
The inside of the Pale Heart is much much larger than the Traveler
Imagine it like a Tardis
river surge
The latter
The inside of the Pale Heart is much much larger than the Traveler
I always thought that when we enter the Traveler
that fully white area is inside The Traveler
and then the pale heart is basically the heart of it
and inside the pale heart we are basically inside its heart

its a lie
verity is a lie
from what ive heard
river surge
Also inside Verity we are umaking our Final Shape
river creek
also iirc it looks like that because of the mataiodoxia lore card
river surge
cause thats what the encounter is about
river creek
yeah
river surge
And somehow its poetic
since
we need the Traveler light and darkenss to unamke our final shape
and inside that room we are basically inside the somewhat tree thats growing up to the Zenith encounter (Witness)
thats not bloom
Really interesting
I still find the Light and Darkness saga much more interesting than this new one tbh
slow berry
verity is a lie
you can see the reality around the corner of your screen in that encounter
and while you're dead
quite neat!

Also the reason the space looks the way it does is because the Witness' monolith used to be a big tree of silver wings

ermmm garden of salvation?

Cause its an illusion

the way i interpret it its the witness both trying to finalize us and finally look at us for a moment because we're getting close but also trying to show us "look, don't you want this for you? this perfect version?"
sick yew
the way i interpret it its the witness both trying to finalize us and finally lo...
Pretty much yeah
sick yew
See through the lies, look beyond the illusion
river surge
See through the lies, look *beyond* the illusion
Yeah
So if The Monolith was made around a tree of silver wings
inside the pale heart where the light is prob the strongest
this explains why The Witness chose that area
sick yew
Its where it originates yes
river surge
Also in the 3rd encounter u can see the snake in the corners of the rooms
sick yew
The Pyramids that entered the Pale Heart at the end of Lightfall partly got repurposed as the base of the Monolith (likely the starting area that looks extremely old and the gigantic trophy room of 2nd encounter) before becoming a fusion of former Tree of Silver Wings and Witness
river surge
So The Monolith actually has insane lore
I thought The Witness literally chose that area cause it felt the best for him
sick yew
It is part Pyramid, Part Tree part Witness
river surge
them
sick yew
it
river surge
it yes
river surge
It is part Pyramid, Part Tree part Witness
Also that tree is not bloomed
sick yew
It used to bloom, but the WItness literally tore it apart
river surge
Also
Also
Also
When u start the raid
theres a column of light in the center of The Monolith
sick yew
Thats likely the root of the former Tree
river surge
is that light beam going straight up to the platform where we can dps The Witness?
sick yew
Yup
sick yew
It goes up through the Trophy room of 2nd encounter all the way up to Verity and ends in the DPS platform
river surge
Also inside Verity is it possible to be the inside the stomp of the tree or smth like that?
sick yew
Its hard to tell what part of the Tree it used to be
Cause we dont know how big it used to be
river surge
I feel like the only way the Witness could actually create the illusion was using the light within the tree itself
river surge
Cause like
u can tell based on how further up u go
in Verity ur ascending to its brenches
sick yew
Darkness as a power is all about the mind and the mental
So it could very well be a Darkness related illusion
a reverse nightmare so to speak
river surge
Maybe
slow berry
what do you reckon is the coolest raid encounter objective
obviously DROWNDROWNDROWN is banger
slow berry
description
sick yew
I never read those lmfao
slow berry

Vow literally has the best intro out of all of them
Literally Mara talking then saying
Un-
Welcome
sick yew
That was pretty cool yeah
river surge
The main reason why I play DSC is because of the ost and the vibe the raid gives
sick yew
I really like DSC too, I think Descend is one of the coolest encounters thematically
river surge
I really like DSC too, I think Descend is one of the coolest encounters thematic...
Descend was indeed something insane
sick yew
Stopping nukes while the station around you literally crashes towards Europa was hella cool
sick yew
The blast doors outside closing on reentry just to break off
river surge
And our Guardians being hurt after that fall
Desert Perpetual so far was mid imo
the only thing I loved about it was the last encounter
and the animation of the giant harpy waking up
sick yew
I really like the OST of Desert
Its all around bangers with the final boss being one of the coolest looking and sounding (OST) things in this game
And literally doing DPS ontop of the boss is cool
river surge
Still dont understand why tf they went with the non linear stuff
sick yew
Cause its something new and refreshing and made for a pretty cool Day1 watching experience
river surge
Not really
if an encounter is completed
and u have 3 encounters on which teams could discover how to complete it
sick yew
If youre actually one of the teams competing its a different thing yes
river surge
that means everyone would know 3/4 encounters in an instant
sick yew
But if youre watching it was neat
river surge
Yeah I cant lie abt that
sick yew
Skipping around to see who was where
river surge
but competitive wise non linear raids are not good
slow berry
it was the best watching experience imo
sick yew
I think the non linearity actually discouraged the usual black screen shenanigans going on
slow berry
i can see why people would dislike the actual experience of playing it though
river surge
I think the non linearity actually discouraged the usual black screen shenanigan...
And guess what
They still did it
xd
river surge
But still
Verity day 1 was just
insane
everyone theorizing how tf do we unmake our final shape
sick yew
Cause its a puzzle encounter
Those are the biggest day1 hassles
river surge
And the most fun to watch, thats when everyone actually gets the taste of the actual raid itself
and why its called a race
sick yew
Initial Verity approaches were just black screen too tho
Again, its unavoidable considering the stakes
river surge
Verity with or without black screen was random
people figured it out the moment they realised that the inside has nothing to do with the outside
sick yew
People did not figure it out the moment [...]
river surge
I know
river surge
6
sick yew
Yeah
river surge
and the team that did it
said that they realised that outside has their own task and inside their own task
after that they pieced it together
Ghost mechanic was already discovered because most teams did progress on inside and outside by mistake
and they got it done
and they realised that in order to get out from the inside after u get the key its by hearing the crack noise of the glass wall
after outside is done
sick yew
I know how Verity works
river surge
Yeah but I am talking day 1 and how they discovered it
sick yew
I also know that lol
sick yew
Its also not exactly lore related
sick yew
You cant exactly use this approach when canonizing raid clears, because each of the players in that fireteam are The Guardianā¢ (protagonist)
So it makes no sense
river surge
Then why Zavala said that a fireteam infiltrated the monolith and stuff
sick yew
Because a fireteam infiltrated the monolith
But it wasnt the fireteam that actually got the contest clear
Not canonically speaking at least
river surge
So im just tweaking
sick yew
Yes
sick yew
Think about it
Each member of the Fireteam that did Day1 Salvations Edge had transendence and played the campaign except the only guardian that canonically got transendence and did the campaign is you the player
Its a simple disconnect between gameplay and lore like many things in this game
river surge
That actually makes sense now
sick yew
its technically not inherently canon that you (the player) did Salvations Edge cause youd still be on the top of the Monolith while Zavala gives his speech
It could be that you and the rest of the raid fireteam teleported down real quick
But it doesnt have to be
If you didnt do the raid then in your game you just werent part of the fireteam that did Salvations Edge
ember storm
Canonically speaking every guardian is their own person but The Guardianā¢ that we experience the story through is just their own
Just because you personally didnāt play a story or something doesnāt mean it didnāt canonically happen
Heresy treated everybody like they were the ones who killed oryx whether they played D1 or even did KF or not
sick yew
Indeed
SE is just a bit of a special case because they way its set up you (the player) didnt have to be the one who beat SE
In most other narratives it was actually you in the raid
slow berry
It could be that you and the rest of the raid fireteam teleported down real quic...
i imagine it still took some time for everyone to assemble after stopping the witness
and they had to like go find the guy
sick yew
Zavala literally said 'moments ago [...]'
Its very clear that Excission happened right after SE
sick yew
The fuck is that 2nd t
river surge
how did we get down so easily from the top of the monolith
river surge
And lore wise why cant we use that everytime?
sick yew
Or again, you just werent at the monolith to begin with if you didnt do SE
sick yew
And lore wise why cant we use that everytime?
No, you need to set up transmat beacons which have an active range
Ships are equipped with one thats how Mara bailed us out at the end of the main Final Shape campaign
river surge
hmm
sick yew
And others you just place down
river surge
we came so prepared
sick yew
Its possible we had our ship on standby around the monolith and right after we clap the Witness it swoops by, picks us up and drops us off again at the foot of the monolith
ember storm
The fuck is that 2nd t
You pronounce it like how El Macho reveals heās the bad guy in despicable me 2
