That’s a great triangle, isn’t it? Destiny is a masterclass is big weird sci-fantasy vistas, from the Dreaming City to the Garden Of Salvation (where I couldn’t help holding up raids while I took holiday photos). A lush valley with an ominous big triangle feels tailor-made to win over me specifically. Ah god damn it. And I do want to know how Bungie wrap up the current ‘Light & Darkness Saga’ before moving ontostories new. That’s a lot of story threads to pull together, a lot of setup aching for a payoff. Ugh. Maybe I’ll take a little look when The Final Shape arrives in 2024. Just a little look. At the big triangle. Nothing else.
Bungie are very good at cool big shapes. The Traveller, our big magical ball friend, there’s another. Those Darkness pyramids, lovely. A nice Halo ringworld. And theirreboot of Marathon as a PvP extraction shooter, announced last night, has a cool mystery shape too.
Oh, yeah, also, I guess Cayde-6 is back in some form in The Final Shape. That’s noteworthy. He’s supposed to be dead. Maybe he still is? It’s not clear what’s going on here, nor where ‘here’ is.
Thankfully, Cayde didn’t ask any questions about how come I already had his gun as we strode confidently towards his murder
Bungie will reveal more of The Final Shape during a Destiny Showcase event on the 22nd of August. They also plan to “provide a look forward into the future of Destiny 2.” Whatever story follows the Light & Darkness Saga, I hope it involves cool big shapes.
