Yeah this campaign seemed rushed and disconnected. No build up to Neomona or the Veil just “ok we’re here now and we gotta find this Veil.” Witch queen had build up with us exploring mars and fighting the hive guardian before taking a moment to try and figure things out. Idk seems like they didnt have as much passon for this. Im almost tempted to say Curse of Osiris and Warmind were better story wise.
keep in mind everyone, Nezerac made an appearance. he very well could be taking the place of the Witness in this universe, to protect anyone from entering into the traveler. imo, i would’ve liked to see more of the Witness. and get to know more of its intentions, and just exactly why was it important for him to get inside of the Traveler Edit: I had a thought, the raid is called “Roots of Nightmares” so Nezarec is who gave the Neptunians the nightmares in the CloudArk, and gave us the Nightmares during the Shadowkeep DLC. He could be the final raid boss. The raid then will be an explanation of the intentions of the Witness, and the capabilities of the Traveler
He merged with the traveler and the traveler becomes evil and we go into the portal to kill the traveler plot twist the darkness is still coming so we have to fight with the remaining light we have within ourselves
Wow… they really know how to make underwelming story development. Huge trailer, everything just for that scene, where no one even knows whats going on. And now it takes another year for them to make some story content ? Nice, exactly what people wanted. So essentially you pay like 50 bucks for a short story, some new content and maps and thats it… nice
Yea, it's almost like something happened these last couple years to really slow down development... No idea what that could have possibly been. In all seriousness though; it sucks but it's unavoidable for now.
@@Thescott16 not sure covid is still a way to excuse publishing neglected content. They hyped it up huge, and most game studios are back on track. Some amazing games recently came out so the pandemic is no longer an excuse. They just really drag out content to get the most out of this franchise. Because once this story is dine, destiny is over. If they really still suffered from the aftermath of the pandemic they could have delayed, or reduced the price
So… what exactly happens next season? Because Calus is finally dead and the Witness is in the wind, and fighting psions or an oversized hive knight after this will feel like massive downgrade. Edit: Correction, Calus is about as dead as Taniks.
We need savathun redeemed (she no longer has to lie about the veil and most likely knows more about it than usual) mara sov might actually have more to do with this than usual and she will most likely need savathun to help her figure out what the witness is doing and xivu arath is very much STILL a hive threat considering we have been fighting the forces for quite a while so they very much can use anything
Well aside from the poor seasonal model story telling that has already been going on. Its probably safe to assume they're gonna ignore that cliffhanger while us gaurdians are gonna have to deal with Nezarec for a Raid - followed by some Vex or Xivu Arath season. Who knows - maybe even going into that triangle portal. The next season after Defiance is named the "The Deep". So maybe that's where the portal leads. Worry not - bungie has a plan to make us waste hours of time grinding for a 3 minute story beat.
Like my name is byf said, "If you had to compare d2 to marvel right now, lightfall is infinity war and the final shape will be end game." Because, after all, we still aren't even sure what the Witness truly wants to do. We can guess based on the prophecy we found in the vow of the disciple but that still, is even up to multiple interpretations.
They used a stupid macguffin to take us to a new planet instead of just actually starting the main conflict when it should have. The Witness stands in front of the Traveler at the beginning of the DLC, and at the end. Feels like they're just stretching it out even more. Shit should have hit the fan in Season of Arrivals. It was the perfect time to end the Light and Dark Saga. It felt urgent.
Shit did hit the fan in Season of Arrivals. The Arrivals Pyramids were just the first ships out of the larger fleet, and 4 of our destinations got yoinked by them.
Honestly… when they said this is our “end” it didn’t feel like it at all. It more felt like a continuation and a lot of confusion. I still have so many questions that weren’t answered at all. What’s the veil? What is the light and darkness? Weren’t we supposed to learn more about the witness and it’s motives??
We did learn more about the Light, Darkness, and the Witness' motivations during the campaign. Not as much as you might've liked, but we did learn quite a bit.
They basically answer all the questions that were never answered in the campaign in Season of the Deep. Spoilers: The Witness is basically like the Core from Amphibia: they are a fusion of a bunch of idiots who saw the Traveler once as a life provider. But after learning it could create chaos, they brought the Veil, which they found, and went "let's do some evil" The Veil is actually the TRUE entity of Darkness, which explains why there is Strand in Neomuna. The Light and the Darkness were never enemies. The Witness only used the Darkness for its evil motives. The Final Shape the Witness keeps talking about is the end of not only the universe, but reality itself. The Witness wants to create a world in which there is no life and there is no death. Just complete nothingness; eternal and perfected. That's why in the Witch Queen, they said: "You promised them life, Yet only delivered death Enough death, enough life" Theory of mine of where the Witness might have gone: when the Witness said in the Witch Queen: "your pale heart holds the key", got me thinking, that they went inside the Traveler in order to destroy or find the heart of the Traveler. Since the Traveler is like a sentiment being, it must have a heart. P.S.: Calus cannot sing.
All the calus’ we killed were robots and taniks is also more machine than fallen, Cayde can be brought be back if they figure out how yo create exos again but he would be a completely different person and would not be a guardian Also the real reason they killed him was because his voice actor didn’t have time for destiny anymore
nahhh Witch Queen had seasons and at least everything was interesting and it felt like a Forsaken (except the raid which personally I didnt like that much) but in this case, Light Fall is just like, bad
@@emperorpeng5981 I accept that and I was wrong for saying you are complaining. There's nothing wrong with feeling disappointed. Speaking of, are you playing on Xbox? You can get a refund on Microsoft, and turn around and subscribe to Gamepass to get the DLCs for $1 or a couple bucks. It's how I played the Beyond Light DLC and got Stasis, but once your sub ends you lose access to it. Better than buying the whole game when you can take that money and invest in the dungeons/season pass.
@@tyxbreaker no offense taken brother and i also sorry if i offend you, and im playing on PC so i guess i just have to live with the DLC with no refund
Well to be fair the real endings to the story will be in The final Shape…do t get me wrong I’m dissatisfied with ending as well but I wasn’t going into the story expecting the story to wrap up at the end of the campaign.
Big surprise, the DLC that starts with actual urgency ends on some random planet chasing some dumbass macguffin that has nothing to do with the main plot. Bungie can not stick to the Light vs Dark story for more than 3 minutes (now after the intro) before putting us on some side themed shit. Beyond Light was EPIC ICE POWER, Witch Queen was DETECTIVE MYSTERY😎, and this one is CYBERPUNK purple orange and green😱 So fucking lame and the urgency will be dragged out to nothing over seasonal content as usual. Happy to see people disagree with it, but hate that I still see blind hype under Bungie's trailers. This is the first DLC I haven't given them money for and I'm glad. It's the same thing over and over.
Th-That's it? That's it!? The Witness just...walks through a portal and...that's it!? No explanation? No interaction with the Traveler? The Traveler didn't even do anything! What a crock!
the traveler has been one of the biggest disappointments to me with D2 because NOTHING is explained about it. The cut that was made against the traveler created a portal instead of letting us see what is inside the sphere. Where the hell does that portal go to and why did the Witnes take the ships with? Nothing makes sense about this ending and it's simply to allow more time for new content creation and purchase.
@@stelonous in unveiling lore books it's stated if you were ever to try and trace the origin of either light or darkness, you'd end up in The Garden. Considering what the traveler blasted the pyramids with, I'd be inclined the witness is potentially going into the Garden
Good thing I waited to see how it was before buying … straight filler, they brought back calls as a filler and now the real “end won’t happen till the final shape wow! This dlc was just get strand that’s it
So Lightfall was supposed to be the final shape. Bungie later turned final shape into a separate expansion. I'd have to assume they had more stories to tell through seasons instead of packing them into one huge send off for destiny 2.
So from what I've seen from the cutscenes and gameplay....this 'expansions' answers no questions AND raises no questions? Wow. Did they even need to make this or did they just want more money?
I guess this is why each season gives us story. This dlc clearly meant to open the story up for bigger plans and now each season will see what the ghost started.
The Witness, with a heavy heart, unlatches the gate to the traveler, revealing a resplendent goddess of light. Its aim is to consume her radiance, yet its efforts prove futile, for the goddess is imbued with a strength beyond its grasp.
So... did no one think "I don't know? Maybe I should jump through that portal so the Witness doesn't get away?" Like seriously. It's cool that it ended with a loss but seriously... logic people... logic!
The witness isn't dead at all, we lost, we don't know what it's intentions are or what it's plan is, but clearly the Shadow Legion would more than likely know what the plan is and still follow it.
Theory of mine of where the Witness might have gone: when the Witness said in the Witch Queen: "your pale heart holds the key", got me thinking, that they went inside the Traveler in order to destroy or find the heart of the Traveler. Since the Traveler is like a sentiment being, it must have a heart. P.S.: Calus cannot sing
Bungie once again proving they suck at story telling, we really need to stop giving this game a chance, no game deserves you to spend hundreds a year just to get shitty stories with constant new characters you don’t care about
Came to this video to see if I made the right choice of quitting the game before LF. Guess I was right. Rip to all the people that paid 100 to play a bad story and 4 mediocre seasons before another terrible DLC next year
@@rapgodmaster6592 Seasonal stories which will do nothing but introduce lame side characters to do some vague build up to the 50 dollar final shape expansion
welp, that was something... why do i get tricked by bungie sigh. just Osiris yelling at us to find something we have no buildup for and it feels rushed, disconnected to anything else? The Veil macguffin came in and was suddenly so important. how does Osiris know so much? guess we wait i guess. spent all the money on the opening sequence
@@jgarcia6421 ok but the question still stands. What's The Veil. We just got a whole expansion dedicated to defending it and saying how much it's important and then at the end... we just don't know what it is....
yeah i wasn't planning on buying this one because $100 and hours of grinding for 12 minutes of story is ridiculous. Im interested to see where it goes, but cutscenes on youtube will tell me all i need to know
I'm glad I didn't buy it either. This is my first time not being there for day 1. I wasn't overly excited for Beyond Light, but played daily. I played Witch Queen now and then with my girlfriend. This time around, Destiny isn't on my console. Hopefully the lack of profit will teach Bungie, but I'm assuming they are aware their sales are dropping and that's why they keep increasing expansion prices
I’m not even waste my money on light fall it’s overhyped paying nearly 70 fucking pounds for me in the UK. What are you getting out with your money? Nothing it’s the reskinned shit from the past three years since shadow keep building of the whole story of the darkness what is funny for the final boss for the campaign story of this chalice it’s really lazy I’m fed up with the whole story line with the Cabal I’ve I was okay for when destiny, two first came out, when they destroyed the tower and take power of the traveller but what should be the new chapter of destiny post to be building up a story with the darkness, and I still going back, bringing all the villains back is so boring. And this is why I’m not falling for this trap now anyway, I got burnt out since the beginning of which queen the grind is so boring, it’s all the same as shadow keep and we going to be grinding for the same seasons for the next 12 month I’m glad I last years ago
Season passes, maybe, since you can pick and choose and each one isn't that much. But upwards of $50 bucks 'so you can use strand ability' (which Bungie will use it as, same way you needed Beyond Light to use stasis) and almost no ongoing story is too high.
I literally thought “that’s it? This costed $50?” Like it’s not the first time it’s happened but LF had so much hype and potential… hopefully New Shape has a good ending
My question is if the Witness could possess the Ghost, why did it had to go through all that trouble of making Calus go and get the Radial Mast to create a link when it could just possess the Ghost and go directly to the Veil and make the link themselves? The Witness would be like: Dang. He's got a point there.
Without calus going there, we as the guardians would not have a reason to get this close to the veil. Here he possessed ghost while we were right before it so the reaction time was minimal but if ghost got possessed further away, someone catching him on time would have been much more probable.
lol its the same game all this shit got leaked as plot that was cut when they scraped the original game and resold it to us bit by bit you are still paying for destiny one writing and story
I'm personally a bit disappointed with the campaing I hoped for a bigger DLC and an end or close to an end but welp we gotta wait ANOTHER YEAR TO GET THE END I GUESS but that one IS GONNA BE FREAKING INSANE!!!!!!!!!! "The Last DLC" WILL BE NUTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
That ending is so underwhelming it’s not the fact we don’t know what happened it’s the fact that nothing just happened like at all the witness presumably went inside the traveler which should’ve been a scary thing but no, nothing happened to the light (which kinda makes sense but they couldn’t at least have us return to the shard of the traveler?) the tower didn’t get destroyed or anything for that matter and we’re left the same as we were before lightfall I’m really disappointed with that ending like nothing?!? I think me and a lot of other people weee expecting a ragnarock event to take place and season by season after lightfall we would’ve rebuilt and go in for round 2 in final shape hell even the title misleading the traveler didn’t “fall” its still there it just has a giant triangle portal, all the seasons building up to lightfall had the same theme of loss hell that final season 19 cinematic felt is losing alot more than this entire campaign. Look this campaign is actually awesome like the set pieces the bosses and the overall gameplay improved from witch queen but I mean like come on like the expectations were high especially after the vow prophecies saying that the witness will commune and drink the light and that it would kill someone was just a let down. Also as a side note our ghost and literally everyone else didn’t even acknowledge that nesarec was alive in that strike which btw was an amazing strike like genuinely
Anyone who thought this would be the final DLC is naive as a child 😂 the game won't end till we have three darkness subclass, obviously this was just a story arc of the slow conclusion
Nobody at all is saying/thought this was the final dlc. Especially since they’ve been telling us every year since beyond light that final shape comes after this. You’re just fighting an imaginary argument for attention 😂
you didn't have to do the campaign like that xD, did you play it?? if so how did it feel? was strand good?? did you try any of the new exotics or anything? Sadly my ps5 died after a month so i can't play it rn but i wish i could
@@clouded5667 I'm sorry to say it, but I found curse of osiris to be more entertaining than Lightfall. Although Strand was mildly entertaining, $50 is too much for this.
They left the ending on a weird cliffhanger. It didn’t resolve any problems just created more confusion. Lastly the final boss was underwhelming. As much as I like destiny I think WQ was better.
@@jppesto922 ok maybe they put too much effort into fixing the game and adding new content rather than fixing the story. Witch queen succeeded in the story but failed in the actual gameplay. I think the inverse is happening for lightfall.
The Guardian was lining up their shot. If Nimbus swooped in that early, our Ghost would've seen him coming and moved, making that shot even harder to line up.
@@thechunkmaster8794 Not to mention that it's OUR ghost. The little guy that's been with us from the start through thick and thin. The Ghost is a part of us. Look me in the eye and tell me you'd shoot your years long partner in crime in the back without ANY hesitation.
Yup and so it begins the real fall of destiny as people finally realize that all destiny does is make you fool yourselves into thinking that it will become much more then the hyped up guttered t*@$# then it already is, read em and weep hope you are all satisfied by the storyline otherwise.........
During the story? Oh yeah, it's a great time, your grapple has a short recharge (about 3 or 4 seconds after touching the ground) so you get to use it all the time, it's really fun and actually feels really different from the rest of the classes... Then you finish the story and get strand as a permanent class and the grapple has an almost 2 minute recharge time (1:52)... so you basically never use it, I expected the time to be more but only like 10, maybe 15 seconds but no, it has a longer recharge than half the other grenades in the game. I don't play Destiny to just shoot guns, if I wanted to just use guns I would play Battlefield or cod, I want to use my damn space magic, why does bungie insist on making it harder and harder to actually do that seemingly with every update? I am honestly really disappointed in the expansion in general, like there are some cool looking bits and the story strand gameplay is fun but most of it is just Osiris being angry and shouting at us for not being good enough, one of the new characters being basically a marvel character spouting one liners and giving fist bumps and acting like this all this is just a fun time, Calus is just there and not much else and we are basically told nothing about anything, just "go here, do this, if you don't we will loose!" and then we loose (I did want us too loose for once but not like this with ghost just floating off and us doing nothing, christ) nothing really changes, at all, and strand as a class has some of the longest recharge times in the game... It's not fun. Oh and that's not even getting onto the new armour mods, I hope you didn't like any of the builds because they are all gone and basically not rebuildable so have fun making entirely new ones all based around orbs of power and armour power, that's basically charged with light but bad.
From what I know the graudian couldn't get ghost with strand beacuse we never unlocked it yet or masterd like stasis yet and we couldn't get to the witness cause he would just kill anyone that got close with a simply jester and as for the ending the traveler is the final shape which is way it ran so much from the witness though bungie could have did a bit better at writing cause both new players and old wouldn't really understand it.
When I say the traveler is final shape the veil was the key to go we're the traveler was made or first created cause the veil was a link to the location of its birth place
I’m on vacation so I won’t be able to play for a bit. But from what I have heard, it seems that Witch Queen had a great campaign but the rest of the game lacked additions and was pretty much garbage. And Lightfall has a pretty meh-bad campaign but the rest of the game has much more and better additions. 🤷♂️

The cut that was made against the traveler created a portal instead of letting us see what is inside the sphere. Where the hell does that portal go to and why did the Witnes take the ships with? Nothing makes sense about this ending and it's simply to allow more time for new content creation and purchase.
@@stelonous in unveiling lore books it's stated if you were ever to try and trace the origin of either light or darkness, you'd end up in The Garden. Considering what the traveler blasted the pyramids with, I'd be inclined the witness is potentially going into the Garden
To be fair I'm sure the ships kinda locked the traveler from doing jack
The running theory so far, He’s going to the winnower & the Gardner to end the “Game”. It’s been hinted at since the end of WQ
And i quote “ Enough life. Enough Death.”
Good thing I waited to see how it was before buying … straight filler, they brought back calls as a filler and now the real “end won’t happen till the final shape wow! This dlc was just get strand that’s it
So Lightfall was supposed to be the final shape. Bungie later turned final shape into a separate expansion. I'd have to assume they had more stories to tell through seasons instead of packing them into one huge send off for destiny 2.
@@KarthikSankaran yup probably that’s the new formula wait for the seasons
This is awful and now after nine years I feel it's time to walk away
So from what I've seen from the cutscenes and gameplay....this 'expansions' answers no questions AND raises no questions?
Wow. Did they even need to make this or did they just want more money?
They just scammed the whole community. I guess is time to sue bungo.
Just remembering. You still had to pay 50 bucks for it, and another 15 for each season after that.
I guess this is why each season gives us story. This dlc clearly meant to open the story up for bigger plans and now each season will see what the ghost started.
Me to👍
Why do I feel the awokens birthplace has something to do with that portal bc that portal was made with dark and light
The Witness, with a heavy heart, unlatches the gate to the traveler, revealing a resplendent goddess of light. Its aim is to consume her radiance, yet its efforts prove futile, for the goddess is imbued with a strength beyond its grasp.
So... did no one think "I don't know? Maybe I should jump through that portal so the Witness doesn't get away?" Like seriously. It's cool that it ended with a loss but seriously... logic people... logic!
Ikr… but where is the witness going, I thought it was gonna kill the traveler lol
@@mimo-bine only way to find out is to yeet yourself through the portal.
Yeah sure lets jump to the portal with the crazy finger god to see what happens.Bro What you saying doesnt make sense , I would be suicide.
@@anlimari1015 I mean. In the game, you're kinda immortal. Besides, you've killed gods in the past. This should be just another Tuesday at the office.
If you actually paid attention, it's said that nothing can get through the portal, not even Guardians.
So all that buildup to nothing just a portal.
Well now to wait several more years for the next DLC
Final Shape is coming out next year.
The problem here is that a) calus is dead, the witness poofed out so....what's exactly making the shadow legion fight us. Narratively this is a bad
The witness isn't dead at all, we lost, we don't know what it's intentions are or what it's plan is, but clearly the Shadow Legion would more than likely know what the plan is and still follow it.
@@alejandrocarralero2826 he never said the witness is dead but alright.
@@alejandrocarralero2826 ik the witness isn't dead, what I mean by poof is that they're in a different dimension of sorts
Now that the Witness is gone for now, all we have to worry about is Xivu Arath and Nezerac, especially
I knew Bungie wasnt going to pull the cord on this game just yet.
With this nothing burger, they might as well
Theory of mine of where the Witness might have gone: when the Witness said in the Witch Queen: "your pale heart holds the key", got me thinking, that they went inside the Traveler in order to destroy or find the heart of the Traveler. Since the Traveler is like a sentiment being, it must have a heart.
P.S.: Calus cannot sing
This might be the most underwhelming DLC we’ve ever gotten ever since CoO.
Bungie once again proving they suck at story telling, we really need to stop giving this game a chance, no game deserves you to spend hundreds a year just to get shitty stories with constant new characters you don’t care about
Okay
Came to this video to see if I made the right choice of quitting the game before LF. Guess I was right. Rip to all the people that paid 100 to play a bad story and 4 mediocre seasons before another terrible DLC next year
What now, why are you crying?
Facts
and sony gave them 3 billion dollars to development 12 games before 2025 yikes
We're at the Endgame now.
So they’re gonna wait a year with a giant enemy portal above earth? Very underwhelming
Bro forgot that there are seasonal stories
@@rapgodmaster6592 Seasonal stories which will do nothing but introduce lame side characters to do some vague build up to the 50 dollar final shape expansion
welp, that was something... why do i get tricked by bungie sigh. just Osiris yelling at us to find something we have no buildup for and it feels rushed, disconnected to anything else? The Veil macguffin came in and was suddenly so important. how does Osiris know so much? guess we wait i guess. spent all the money on the opening sequence
They literally say ingame that when Osiris was being controlled by Savathun that he gained her knowledge just as much as she did with him
@@jgarcia6421 ok but the question still stands. What's The Veil. We just got a whole expansion dedicated to defending it and saying how much it's important and then at the end... we just don't know what it is....
@Edu Carnerio I thought the veil was something the traveler gave to an old race that was meant to fight the darkness but failed
Well, good thing I didn't buy the new expansion. Consider this my retirement from the Destiny community.
Same thing here. The whole community just got scammed by Bungie I'm laughing my ass off HAHAHHAHAHA.
yeah i wasn't planning on buying this one because $100 and hours of grinding for 12 minutes of story is ridiculous. Im interested to see where it goes, but cutscenes on youtube will tell me all i need to know
I'm glad I didn't buy it either. This is my first time not being there for day 1. I wasn't overly excited for Beyond Light, but played daily. I played Witch Queen now and then with my girlfriend. This time around, Destiny isn't on my console. Hopefully the lack of profit will teach Bungie, but I'm assuming they are aware their sales are dropping and that's why they keep increasing expansion prices
I’m not even waste my money on light fall it’s overhyped paying nearly 70 fucking pounds for me in the UK. What are you getting out with your money? Nothing it’s the reskinned shit from the past three years since shadow keep building of the whole story of the darkness what is funny for the final boss for the campaign story of this chalice it’s really lazy I’m fed up with the whole story line with the Cabal I’ve I was okay for when destiny, two first came out, when they destroyed the tower and take power of the traveller but what should be the new chapter of destiny post to be building up a story with the darkness, and I still going back, bringing all the villains back is so boring. And this is why I’m not falling for this trap now anyway, I got burnt out since the beginning of which queen the grind is so boring, it’s all the same as shadow keep and we going to be grinding for the same seasons for the next 12 month I’m glad I last years ago
Season passes, maybe, since you can pick and choose and each one isn't that much.
But upwards of $50 bucks 'so you can use strand ability' (which Bungie will use it as, same way you needed Beyond Light to use stasis) and almost no ongoing story is too high.
I literally thought “that’s it? This costed $50?” Like it’s not the first time it’s happened but LF had so much hype and potential… hopefully New Shape has a good ending
first time?
@@DnVFMVs nope it’s just this time the hype was crazy i was expecting more ig
LF just dropped today why cant everyone take a few days to enjoy the campaign 😭😭😭
Because it sucks
Tbh it's only 8 missions
My question is if the Witness could possess the Ghost, why did it had to go through all that trouble of making Calus go and get the Radial Mast to create a link when it could just possess the Ghost and go directly to the Veil and make the link themselves?
The Witness would be like: Dang. He's got a point there.
Without calus going there, we as the guardians would not have a reason to get this close to the veil. Here he possessed ghost while we were right before it so the reaction time was minimal but if ghost got possessed further away, someone catching him on time would have been much more probable.
Thats a lot of C02 emissions coming out of that guys head...
You know what? I am going to say it. Bungie did Destiny better while under Activision.
I very much agree which is why d1 had a better launch by far
That's kind of a dumb statement considering the best run of stories this game's had has been AFTER leaving Activision, but whatever.
lol its the same game
all this shit got leaked as plot that was cut when they scraped the original game and resold it to us bit by bit
you are still paying for destiny one writing and story
@@Nomadic_Gaming Joe staten vision for this game was so big.Still dont get why did bungie let him leave just before destiny 1 launch
I'm personally a bit disappointed with the campaing I hoped for a bigger DLC and an end or close to an end but welp we gotta wait ANOTHER YEAR TO GET THE END I GUESS but that one IS GONNA BE FREAKING INSANE!!!!!!!!!! "The Last DLC" WILL BE NUTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
the rifle is only for the scene or did comeback?
That’s what I’m wondering, like where did we get that?
@@kyle6961 I think this is the same rifle that the guardian finds at the cosmodrome after the first resurrection
That ending is so underwhelming it’s not the fact we don’t know what happened it’s the fact that nothing just happened like at all the witness presumably went inside the traveler which should’ve been a scary thing but no, nothing happened to the light (which kinda makes sense but they couldn’t at least have us return to the shard of the traveler?) the tower didn’t get destroyed or anything for that matter and we’re left the same as we were before lightfall I’m really disappointed with that ending like nothing?!? I think me and a lot of other people weee expecting a ragnarock event to take place and season by season after lightfall we would’ve rebuilt and go in for round 2 in final shape hell even the title misleading the traveler didn’t “fall” its still there it just has a giant triangle portal, all the seasons building up to lightfall had the same theme of loss hell that final season 19 cinematic felt is losing alot more than this entire campaign. Look this campaign is actually awesome like the set pieces the bosses and the overall gameplay improved from witch queen but I mean like come on like the expectations were high especially after the vow prophecies saying that the witness will commune and drink the light and that it would kill someone was just a let down. Also as a side note our ghost and literally everyone else didn’t even acknowledge that nesarec was alive in that strike which btw was an amazing strike like genuinely
In the quiet words of Deadpool...
"Well... that's just lazy writing."😒
I literally have no idea what just happened or what to think.
Anyone who thought this would be the final DLC is naive as a child 😂 the game won't end till we have three darkness subclass, obviously this was just a story arc of the slow conclusion
Yeah no shit stupid, they told us this isn't the end, and we've even known the name of the next expansion for a while now.
Nobody at all is saying/thought this was the final dlc. Especially since they’ve been telling us every year since beyond light that final shape comes after this. You’re just fighting an imaginary argument for attention 😂
The Witness is such a strange character
What did the witness do to the traveler at the end there?
Would have been way more compelling if we killed our ghost
Wait, what were you doing playing lightfall with a kvostov?
they didnt’t the cutscene always shows the guardian holding a khvostov
red war was better
you didn't have to do the campaign like that xD, did you play it?? if so how did it feel? was strand good?? did you try any of the new exotics or anything?
Sadly my ps5 died after a month so i can't play it rn but i wish i could
@@clouded5667 I'm sorry to say it, but I found curse of osiris to be more entertaining than Lightfall. Although Strand was mildly entertaining, $50 is too much for this.
also why involve else at all or ikora? they did nothing and they should have canonically right? filler
D1>>>D2
Totally bro Totally. Destiny 2 is the pinnacle of shit in the gaming World. Ever Fortnite is better than this game.
Wait why is this so bad?
They left the ending on a weird cliffhanger. It didn’t resolve any problems just created more confusion. Lastly the final boss was underwhelming. As much as I like destiny I think WQ was better.
@@jppesto922 ok maybe they put too much effort into fixing the game and adding new content rather than fixing the story. Witch queen succeeded in the story but failed in the actual gameplay. I think the inverse is happening for lightfall.
At least I know not to spend ANY MORE of my money on Bungie. Rip Bungie, you s#ck.
So glad I quit destiny. This dlc is fucking trash.
Wait why didn't the flying guy just grab the Ghost before it did the light thing?
The Guardian was lining up their shot. If Nimbus swooped in that early, our Ghost would've seen him coming and moved, making that shot even harder to line up.
@@thechunkmaster8794 Not to mention that it's OUR ghost. The little guy that's been with us from the start through thick and thin. The Ghost is a part of us.
Look me in the eye and tell me you'd shoot your years long partner in crime in the back without ANY hesitation.
bro its been out for 1 day calm the hell down, embrace the game
Hmm actually does the traveler have its own throne world like dimension
Why’d nimbus just stand their until it was nearly there
Yup and so it begins the real fall of destiny as people finally realize that all destiny does is make you fool yourselves into thinking that it will become much more then the hyped up guttered t*@$# then it already is, read em and weep hope you are all satisfied by the storyline otherwise.........
Wow..$100 dollars for this? Yeah fucking right 😅
Damn the guardians ain’t been winning shìt
That's it?
Well that sucked.
Was the gameplay at least good tho if anyone has played it yet
gameplay is really cool, story wise its not good
Very cool game play experience Idrc about the story that’s not why I play the game
During the story? Oh yeah, it's a great time, your grapple has a short recharge (about 3 or 4 seconds after touching the ground) so you get to use it all the time, it's really fun and actually feels really different from the rest of the classes... Then you finish the story and get strand as a permanent class and the grapple has an almost 2 minute recharge time (1:52)... so you basically never use it, I expected the time to be more but only like 10, maybe 15 seconds but no, it has a longer recharge than half the other grenades in the game. I don't play Destiny to just shoot guns, if I wanted to just use guns I would play Battlefield or cod, I want to use my damn space magic, why does bungie insist on making it harder and harder to actually do that seemingly with every update?
I am honestly really disappointed in the expansion in general, like there are some cool looking bits and the story strand gameplay is fun but most of it is just Osiris being angry and shouting at us for not being good enough, one of the new characters being basically a marvel character spouting one liners and giving fist bumps and acting like this all this is just a fun time, Calus is just there and not much else and we are basically told nothing about anything, just "go here, do this, if you don't we will loose!" and then we loose (I did want us too loose for once but not like this with ghost just floating off and us doing nothing, christ) nothing really changes, at all, and strand as a class has some of the longest recharge times in the game... It's not fun.
Oh and that's not even getting onto the new armour mods, I hope you didn't like any of the builds because they are all gone and basically not rebuildable so have fun making entirely new ones all based around orbs of power and armour power, that's basically charged with light but bad.
Game should have never became free! Hate to say it.
Cringe sliversurfer ripoff
I was debating buying this or Hogwarts legacy...yeah.
Out of the loop what was that weird belly shirt thing? Looked horrible
From what I know the graudian couldn't get ghost with strand beacuse we never unlocked it yet or masterd like stasis yet and we couldn't get to the witness cause he would just kill anyone that got close with a simply jester and as for the ending the traveler is the final shape which is way it ran so much from the witness though bungie could have did a bit better at writing cause both new players and old wouldn't really understand it.
When I say the traveler is final shape the veil was the key to go we're the traveler was made or first created cause the veil was a link to the location of its birth place
Super underwhelming story they hyped the fuck out of this so many videos and trailers all for that
Ugh guess I’m not buying it
I’m on vacation so I won’t be able to play for a bit. But from what I have heard, it seems that Witch Queen had a great campaign but the rest of the game lacked additions and was pretty much garbage. And Lightfall has a pretty meh-bad campaign but the rest of the game has much more and better additions. 🤷♂️
The additions in Lightfall aren’t even all that. TWQ was significantly better than this DLC in nearly every way.
Mate spoiler alert
Bruh, this is how it ends? This is the most underwhelming campaign in all of destiny, like all that hype for nothing
I swear some of yall hate just to hate yall be watching how the campaign ends without the story leading up to it but I mean it's your money I'm not gonna tell you how to spend it
this series took the biggest L with this DLC
so glad i didn’t buy this lol
huh?
Campaign seemed so much more hyped up in promo stuff. This was a major letdown. Definitely a step backwards from WQ. Wtf went wrong?
greed, thats what went wrong
