      So you're the reason the Cabal invaded! You pushed the purple ball off the Tower and it landed on Gary's head, so he got angry and destroyed the city :'(

    The way it's delivered here actually makes me interested in the series again. The way the story is delivered by Bungie is just so damn lackluster.

  • @zelthina
    @zelthina 7 лет назад +2

    Thanks for compiling the D1 story to 15 min. I find it way to much to read all the grimoar cards i get. Hopefully they will put the story in D2 in another way.
    Keep up the great work Arekkz!

  • @Dramatic_Gaming
    @Dramatic_Gaming 7 лет назад +12

    What Bungie can do to improve Destiny's story for the next game:
    - Cutscenes. I know a lot of people rail against them, but they can serve a useful purpose for storytelling as long as they are concise, well-written, and you don't overload the story with them.
    - Less ambiguity. Three years almost and we still know next to nothing about what the Darkness or the Light are, how they function, what the Traveller is, etc. I get wanting to be mysterious, but there's such a thing as too much.
    - Flesh out existing characters. There's about a half-dozen characters who are supposed to be major players in the story, but nothing is done with them other than alluding that they may or may not be involved in certain events. And give the existing NPCs some more personality. Cayde can't carry the whole narrative (though not for lack of trying).
    - Stop building stories around the Fallen as primary antagonists. They're cannon fodder enemies, shattered tribal remnants, and yet they SOMEHOW managed to fircibly enter the Vault of Glass and control Golden Age tech? And then they get swept aside just as suddenly, without any real fanfare, and forgotten. They are impossible to take as legitimate threats anymore.

    • @csmith9684
      @csmith9684 4 года назад +2

      YES! More Cutscenes with the ability to skip (for people without patience) would be great to see what is going on. I'll be killing everything insight collecting this & that for 2-hrs and i'll suddenly stop & ask myself what am I actually doing this for?? BTW: Yea its an old comment but I just started D2 so blah- :)

    Arekkz Gaming honestly I have played destiny sense the release, and I would have to say that I don't even understand the story but from watching this the story of the game looks very well made and intrusting as well as this being very well explained overall in you presentation 10/10 video bud👍👍👍

  • @minerman6767
    @minerman6767 7 лет назад

    you did a really good job with this, only key note that you missed is that, as the darkness approaches the traveler made preparations to leave us (as it had done with the fallen), this is where Rasputin predicts this eventuality and damages the traveler so it cannot leave. now that i couldn't leave it mounts its last defence of itself by releasing the ghosts and creating the guardians to protect itself

    @matusfurman1168 7 лет назад

    This was a really great video, thanks, but I wanted to point out one thing. You said the hive built the Dreadnaught to fight guardians, in fact Oryx built it for his throne room to be portable and armored because he can be killed ONLY in his real throne room, if he's killed somewhere else he just "respawns"... But other than that, a great video, thanks a lot, it reminded me of all the stuff I did throughout those 2 years. 👍

  • @bear4454

    The Golden Age = Halo Lifecycle days for Bungie (yes, Halo 2 "mishap" included haha)
    The Darkness = Activision's need to micromanage because they know what customers want.
    The Collapse = The rejection of the initial story and supercut and Bungie's turmoil attempting to recover from such a blow.
    ...Now Destiny's story has had to claw back it's way from extinction, which has been a pretty decent job once they got a small footing on HoW. No hate here, I was one of the initial "burned" year 1 folks, but I strongly believe you can find so much to improve when you make mistakes. Good luck to the Bungie crew, can't wait to see what they've got planned for D2 and on.
    Great Video, Arekkz, thanks man.

    Myelin games said that it was actually Rasputin who crippled the traveler to stop it from abandoning humanity and force it to create a defence mechanism (ghosts,and by extension guardians)so I think that was a small error you made as he has done lots of research,but other than that great summary.

    Pretty good overall, except Skolas didn't escape captivity. He was a prisoner of the Queen who was given as a gift to appease The Nine when her brother's Crows entered their territory. Skolas was then set free by The Nine for an unknown purpose. Hopefully we find out more about The Nine and their hidden agendas in Destiny 2.

    Great vid but just one problem...The assault on the dreadnought by the awoken. It did go according to the plan. It was a suicide mission to have Oryx destroy his entire fleet along with the awoken to make it easier for the guardians to infiltrate and destroy Oryx.

    • @NathanBMedia
      @NathanBMedia 7 лет назад

      Saint Parallax yeah but when he challenges you is part of the story and iron banner was to prepare you for fights ahead and trials was to show your loyalty to osiris which was in the story you didn't have to go any deeper then that no history just what they were for btw why didn't they bring skolas up to 390 light for age if triumph?

    • @SaintParallax
      @SaintParallax 7 лет назад

    Thanks. This helps. Just started this after 13 months of non stop Division. Great game, but confusing. Just hit level 40(LL215), and confused about many things. The main one being that it appears that sometimes you replay a mission but it has a new ending. Can you do a video advising the navigation and how to get your LL up? Just dipped into the crucible, but feel my build is too weak. Not as easy to figure out a build versus the division. Thanks, Scott.

    "If you read the cards, you'd know the story!"
    lol, if that's such an effective means of communicating a story, why'd Destiny's story fail so hard that most folks do not know the story or even want to know the story?
    Gameplay is a way to tell a story and when story is placed in a card on a site that requires you to stop entirely put down the game to learn, what is the point of playing destiny then? Clearly the cards was not an effective way of communicating the story when playing the game is the goal in mind.
    Was the story decent? Sure. Was the story told effectively? Not in the slightest.

      The vanilla Desty was ripped of content in every level If a company need DLC to complete a game is screwed up, or is a Scammer company. I play Destiny since year one (with breaks there and there) so no" you are a hater" or "Why commenting on a video of a videogame you don´t like or don´t play".
      Having a lore OUTSIDE of the game is super lazy and leaves a vacuum of content in it.

      Outside the game, it cut the immersion if you have to leave the game to learn what the fuck is happening in there, is a really bad choice in development, and i care to dive on this but it was a stupid choice to leave that outside the game.

      William Chapman ^^^YYYEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!! You sir, understand! FFS people do NOT understand that fact... or they try to say that it's annoying that you have to read the cards. suck it up princess, with the cards they can tell a MUCH better story because they can give much more info and death in the cards than they would be able to in the game itself. Books are always better than their movies. I myself know damn near all the grimiore in the game and it is f*cking incredible. for anyone wanting to get into the lore watch the lore videos by "Myelin Games" "My Name is Byf" and of course "Arekkz" the lore of this game is truly amazing and I cannot express that enough.

    I'm really hopeful that Destiny 2 does a better job at storytelling. The whole time I was watching this video, all I could think is "man it would have been nice to know this while I was playing".

    Awesome. Very well done. I'm glad somebody could make some sense of that horrible story.

      Dr. Jeffrey L. Jackson it's not horrible, it just utilizes a different median for story telling that people aren't used to. You read one grimoire card, it leaves you with a question so you keep searching and searching. I actually enjoyed it because I only knew as much as I wanted to know. I controlled how fast or slow I gathered information.

      The lore is very interesting, I agree. And you make a great point that we are not used to looking outside the game for information about the lore.
      I do think there should have been a complete story in the game. The cards should have also been in the game for those willing to explore more of the backstory. Perhaps something like the methods used in Mass Effect and Dragon Age.
