Destiny 2 Lore - The Season of the Wish Finale happened… I guess… Riven, Scorn and Crow's Portal.

- Destiny 2’s Lore and Story from the Season of the Wish happened… and felt mostly uneventful. We learned that the last egg was being held by a group of Scorn under the command of Fikrul The Fanatic. They were trying to make a wish of the unborn Ahamkara, though what they were attempting to do with that wish is unknown. Upon recovering this egg, we spoke to Riven, who enacted the 15th and final wish. The story this time around felt weak compared to other seasons and despite Crow stepping through the portal it looks like this season has ended with a splutter.

When crow said see you starside I was like byfs gonna lose it probably lol
I just with he said "per audacia ad astra" instead
Still a better "starside" than most of Byf's stand-ins lol
Same. But who is referencing who?
When I saw that cut scene I was like did Crow just steal Bfy's outro🤣
I immediately thought of Byf when crow said that.
Crow: I'll see you starside...
Byf: that's my line, but I'll allow it..
It’s not “his” line. He copied it from Bungie’s farewell message from Reach
@@St3a1thsniper32 which in turn was taken from Marathon back in the 90's
feels more like a to be continued than a finale
Of course it is. It was no different at the end of Season of the Lost and Season of the Seraph. Admittedy those two finales had more impact than this one, but this ending feels like it is the calm before the storm.
@@kailuun season of the Seraph ending was incredibly cool though. But that entire season was really good in general
Season Finales usually are
isnt that what its suppose to be? theres going to be more afterwards
cuz spoiler this is not a finale of the season @@kailuun
In my head canon of this moment, crow is gonna take 5 months to reach the pale heart cuz savathun didnt told riven to pay for the delivery express
Damn. Global trade delays even effecting the ley lines.
Once again it ends too short.
I wish we could’ve seen Crow land and a sneak peek at the Pale Heart.
I would’ve accepted that and this is the perfect Scenario for me, see Crow land AND meet Cayde again.
I desperately need that cutscene in Final Shape and Cayde passing the vanguard mantle to crow,just to fulfill the Vanguard dare.
I hope not, but this timing might be a lazy shortcut. The Moment when Crow meets Cayde should be a cutscene, but it could be that we go into the portal and alredy see them months after that, while The Moment itself is pushed into a lore tab. Again, I hope not.
God no, I refuse to have crow as my vanguard. I’m fine with him being alive and accepting his faults but never my vanguard fuck that😭
@@nankaq9909 everything but the lore tab again…
Saint got robbed last season.
@@hayden3732 fr fr
That would've been better at ending with some degree of hype
I wonder how often Riven directly addresses Mara by name instead of "O majesty mine". If she doesn't, then it's a nod of respect to refer to her without possession.
I love seeing the determination in Crow's eyes before he leaps through the portal. He's truly living up to the Guardian credo.
Thou shall always jump through portals?
@@Bard1285blindly stroll into a dangerous situation, shoot anything looking at you funny and then loot what remains.
@@EpslionBearCayde-6 would approve... Well, I think he would.
I guess Crow will find out regardless.
a true hunter
Glint when he got his Guardian: "It's a Hunter!
Glint (possibly) now: "... Why did he have to be a Hunter?"
Seeing the fifthteenth wish pop up on the “wishing wall” lore books made me laugh. Like my brain was finally free from the mystery
I loved getting that final grimoire card. Felt like finally closing the book on an age old conspiracy.
It was a small touch, but finally being able to complete the Wall of Wishes lore book was such a good little feeling.
Stopped playing a season ago but still watch for the juicy lore. Thank you for all your hard work
Same 🫤 Glad I didn't bother w/this season, to be honest. I haven't played on a regular basis in well over a year now. I just got so burnt out. And the content seemed stale. And the company well... Bungie is lucky ANY of us are playing a game from their triflin asses, let's just say that. lol I'm not even sure I'll be back til The Final Shape, the way things are going. And that's only cuz I want to see how it ends, and... see if we get 1 more darkness power or not. Kinda interested in that. But I don't feel any regret missing out on this current season, AT ALL. I'm enjoying another game way more, frankly.
Byf really carries the show
@@KabbalahSherry Im just like you. I dont even want to buy the final shape at this point because I dont want to support Bungie.
@@Everrrrr very understandable. I'm thinking of not buying Final Shape
The lore is great, it's one of the reasons I didn't completely leave Destiny
I know we can search your archives and go through the detailed videos if we want but I think it would be pertinent to do a synopsis of Cayde-6 for any newer lights who haven't played any missions with him. An overview from his Deep Stone Crypt lore up through Forsaken would be wonderful to see. Keep up the great work!
*hits a satisfying 1 2 3 4 shots with sunshot in the Astral Cloister*
Byf: "I'm gonna use this clip SO many times"
Its not finale on Seraph's level. But maybe for the better.
I adored Mara's character progression and evolucion this season. From cold, distand and grieving Queen to an ally. Friend. Someone who aknowledges and apologizes.
Can't wait for more. Bravo Bungie 🫶🏻
I'm loving her progress, too, but it's been in the works for a while. Really, the events of Lost, and of the Parasite quest in Witch Queen, did a number on her, but it wasn't until Defiance that we really started to see it come to fruition. The Mara Sov of D1 wouldn't dream of sullying her power by investing it in _Guardians._
@@Landis963 And thats precisely what makes it legit. It took time, didn't appear overnight. Even her relationship with Crow came a long way. From fighting and tensions to her "please come back to me." From her trying to control him his whole life to "go and live your life your way. Find your purpose." She's so amazing 🫶🏻🥰
This is not the finale, there's still 1 more mission left, look at the triumphs.
That's just one of the good things in this season and it's good to see Mara grow. As for the rest of this season, it's another boring chore of a grind-fest. Glad I didn't bought this season
Looking forward to more lore and you’re revised: “Complete story of Destiny” video, covering the light vs dark saga Byf! Glad to have our lore master back.
It’s not really the ending that erks me. It’s a typical “to be continued” scenario which works fine.
What i really hate is that Destiny’s biggest secret ever (the 15th wish) was completely lost to a seasonal quest where we kill mobs, listen to dialogue, rally to the holo projector, then listen to the radio message.
This was a HUGELY missed opportunity for Bungo to do a community puzzle like Corridors of Time, or opening the last forge in Black Armory.
No, it just magically popped out of nowhere for plot convenience, proving Bungo doesn’t care for their own stories anymore and clearly just wants to move on to Marathon.
The season makes me wonder that if the ahamkara transcend death if taranis' spirit can be called upon, the same way riven was...And if he could teach the whims to exist without bargaining..
I doubt it bc in the exotic missions he does the one thing a ahamkara can never do and that’s grant their own wish. So whatever black reversal magic tied to it is probably why he’s gone gone
If a Ahamkara grants their own Wish they cease to exist.
Riven will continue to exist in whatever Spirit realm she's in now, but in Taranis' case the only reason why his consciousness was still there is because his Wish wasn't fulfilled yet.
@@nullandvoid7524 I think of it more as Black Garden time-muckery.
Riven says Ahamkara grow powerful by twisting and granting wishes, and that makes them leave a "stain" in the world when They die. Bigger when the Ahamkara is more powerful
Taranis however didnt twist wishes, so he was much weaker and his stain was smaller. By granting his own wish, not Only did he kill himself, he doomed his "afterlife as bones". The moment we secure the eggs and Taranis speaks one Last time with Riven, his Spirit ceases to exist.
Its why granting their own wishes is unthinkable for the Ahamkara.
Considering he speaks through Uldren at the end of the first time one completes the Exotic mission, I’d say it’s very likely he _could_ be called upon.
My predictions are :
1. Crow either meets Cayde or he becomes Cayde (like possession) and they team up to open the other side of the portal
2. Crow sacrifices himself in the process of opening the portal
3. Fikrul and his scorn are being controlled by Yor… (I really hope he makes a comeback as the one of the next big antagonists if destiny survives)
4. Riven’s children end the curse on the dreaming city
Fingers crossed for Scenario 2 🤞
Try making a video like the 2 hours full story of "dredgen yor" but this time about factions, the shadows of yor, praxic order, ect...
Contrary to popular opinion i think the ending is actually good, well maybe not good but what is was supposed to be. It needs to be an underwhelming cliffhanger, a period of confusion and instability until Mara and Osiris figure out what to do, to the guardian, the vanguard and us the player. Sure it doesn't really land well after all the bad writing we had recently to also leaves things like these, and knowing what comes next (we are definitely going into the traveler) then we know what is going to happen, but the ending technically serves its purpose.
Also for everyone expecting an astonishing end of season finale, we won't probably get that either, we are not supposed to go into the traveler now, that has to be the first mission of Final Shape, the same with Lightfall, we arriving at Neomuna has to be the first mission of the dlc, not the ending of the season of the seraph. They were able to make a really good ending before lightfall but then screwed up the expansion. In here the final mission probably won't be as satisfaying as sacrificing Rasputin and we won't see the pale heart, nor Cayde or anything.
The best they can do is a big enemy trying to stop us from establishing a link with Crow. Revealing Xivu probably is not a good idea for a season finale of a pass (I believe she will be an important character post final shape), but Fikrul could be a really good candidate for it. He also has a conection with crow, and he is more relevant in this few weeks and the dungeon, also he has a relation with Crow, so my bet is on a duel between the Scorn with Fikrul and us to get who gets to follow Crow
Honestly agree 1000 percent
Appreciate you making these videos. I'm still interested in Destiny's lore and story, even if I'm over the seasonal gameplay loop. Thank you good sir.
Checked out like a week or two after the season started. Can't remember exactly. Extending gratitudes to Byf for these lore videos. Far more engaging than the gameplay loop.
"longform content" music to my ears!! Your videos are the only real reason i ever know whats happening in Destiny so i cannot wait to listen!!
I thought byf would at least give the "See you starside" bit a lil love. Had to think about byf on this one
Byf the fact you are not planning on taking a break and in fact is giving us more content could not have me more pleased
Can’t wait to see longer vids again! Thanks Byf!
I haven’t played since like week 3 and the story was the only reason I played, I just can’t do another weekly collection mission
Haven't played in months but glad to see the story progression here with Byf
While it definitely feels underwhelming, keep in mind this story was designed before the final shape delay, so initially there was a much shorter wait
Yea except like the last few years it’s been always extended rather than the “planned short delay” lol
@@obscuraffliction6272if you are referring to light fall then no there was no delay in that if you are referring to witch queen and beyond light then yes there was delays.
@@thecastleofnothing7074 he means that Lightfall year has been a filler
doesnt matter if final shape was delayed or not this ending for the final season of the year is still garbage.
@@JungKooksTwinthat's because it's not the ending.
The actual finale comes at the end of the delay, right before the launch of final shape, and has a final mission as well.
All lore stuff aside, I just feel old, I remember starting Destiny 1 before High School and here am I now, still watching Byf even.
Love to hear about the long form content incoming those are always my favohrite Byf videos!
6:26 I am glad the stray egg tucked in a corner in Lost was mentioned, even if only obliquely.
one of the best outros on the entire internet and referenced in game again must be sweet
It was definitely a finale. It sure did happen, Clearly a finale of this year.
It’s too bad we couldn’t see riven open her face and have her eyes glow, she granted the wish but i guess they could only glow when they manipulate the wish.
Who else went to the wishing wall the OG route for the nostalgia, not using the floating platforms. one last time before the end. I just wanted to take my time and enjoy the moment, to remember what it felt like to play destiny in forsaken. It really feels like it's about to be the end, ten long years we have waited for this moment. After the finale shape I will miss this game and no other game could replicate its beauty. Destiny might be at a low point, but it is like no other. A truly amazing experience.
Y'know.. despite everything, despite all the downsides we've faced, at least everyone gets to see this to the very end (as a destiny 1 veteran it makes me smile knowing we're this close to finally finishing the light and dark saga so I'd say I'm quite proud I didn't give up on this franchise)
I definitely was not a fan of this ending, felt more like a 'To be continued' scene rather than an actual seasonal ending, I was hoping for more of a 'Riven grants crow a safe passage through the portal while the vanguard and other races watch from the back to see him triumph' but instead we get 'Riven spawns a small portal and crow runs through' which in my opinion did not feel as dramatic as I hoped it would be.
But besides that, we've now gotta wait 5 months for final shape to start (by that logic crow's gonna be stuck inside the traveller for 5 months which sucks for him XD)
It was a good ride, truly, not saying it is over because destiny 2 will certainly continue new stories in the next chapter, but right now, this is truly the finale for destiny as a whole, a story forged through many years with a big community behind it for the ride.
All Ill say is see you all on the other side, guardians!
Keep up the Great Work! I look forward to the longer content and stories.
Nobody:
Literally nobody:
A Hunter: "Yeah, I'll jump through the creepy dragon portal! Sign me up!"
I would love for byf to do another D1 to current talk through giving an entire recap on all of destiny and its characters and backstory like he had before but before the final shape would be awesome
And now we wait for the Final Shape
Anybody else feeling a sense of tension for how this will all go? Not just for the story but for Destiny as a whole
Definitely, Bungie has so much riding on the next big events, coupled with how low things have been recently it's a lot of real life tension being mirrored by the winding down of things story wise. An interesting time to be a Destiny fan for sure
Kinda makes things...I don't know how you say it...makes it feel a bit of a downer since we gotta wait for months until Final Shape
Hey Bug you should do a video explaining the Dreaming City curse now that we have new lore and dialogue talking about it more, more specifically a video on how it WORKS, I'm still very confused.
I really hope to see you finish the Clovis Bray journal entries back from Beyond Light. There are things that ive probably forgotten and would love your perspective. Also because Entry 12 is bonkers and I want to know what you take from it.
Honestly I’m not too disappointed with how the season ended. I would’ve liked a bit more flare, sure, but I’m mostly just feeling melancholic about Riven’s final words.
I’m honestly still excited for what’s to come. I understand the community sentiment towards Destiny 2 right now isn’t great, but I’m still holding out. I have faith they’ll deliver with these next few months, and with TFS. There’s no doubt these next few months will feel slow though.
Glad to see a comment like this. I feel the same. It’s nice to see someone else openly still having hope for the future. It gets kind of daunting in this current and understandable state of the game, especially it still being one of my absolute faves, for better or worse. I’m willing to put my faith in the dev team and them only. Regardless of what bs management is pulling, I just pray they let the devs put their all in it and close this saga that will honor the best of their creativity as well as their love for this game and it’s community.
@@Pip_NoSqueakThe one thing that has bothered me ever since all the news came out with management is that the very vocal minority of the community is STILL blaming devs for poor decisions being made in D2. I understand not liking the state of the game, but how thick in the skull does someone have to be to not understand that 99% of this is not the devs fault.
@@pasttense69 And it’s that distinction that allows me to keep my faith because I know, sans management, all they want, ever wanted was to deliver a game THEY love and WE love.
Byf you are amazing thank you for everything ❤❤
I really liked the ending personally.
It feels like the thoughts before the end of a journey, fitting.
Long form content of a deep dive into each character would be cool.
Drifter's timeline (as far as we know anyway) would be cool to double back over.
Shaxx, Eris, Petra, Anna and Elsie.. Similar to a 'their story so far..' kinda thing.
Byf is not going to be short on content for a long time. If anything, this long season is more an opportunity to catch up on everything.
I'd like to see you do more speculation videos, like what / who are the Vex, who made the traveler etc
I like Crows "See you Starside".
Also, Riven finally said, "This one you shall cherish."
It's been grayed in our lore book page description for so long.
The moments pause before all hell breaks loose? --- looking forward to the longer form content Byf -- hope the voice stays sound :)
I wish to have had someone like riven and taranis in my life. This guardian will ensure these whims be safe, for both of them.
Were you still going to make lore vids based on D&D? Did that get dropped or is that happening closer to the summer?
Maybe a long form similar to the Thorn story, and Dynasty? I need more of that content
I really be happy one if we'd see a Short about Sala-spearing the Walker
Love your videos!!! Glad you are recovered!!
Maybe the whole scorn thing could be tied to the revenant episode or maybe a small tease that it’s coming? Idk 🤷🏾♂️
discord notification sound at 6:35 really got me...
honestly i was satisfied by this, im reluctant to say it but it was hype finally returning to the wishing wall and inputting one last wish
Something I never hear anyone talk about is how these eggs have been eggs for a super long time, not just 5 years but centuries? However long ago the great hunt was
Maybe, just maybe, the 5 month break will give us the Skrank Gang video
I feel like they cut something til the actual end of the season...
Some veil containment, I hope.
Mini lore trivia would be good for shorts I think
Love ya Byf 💙
Ironically I wished the finales for these seasons post lightfall were big and epic like the intense lore behind them.
I see why bungie moved to the episode format now, had they done that from the beginning, the seasons this year wouldn’t feel so underwhelming presentation wise
I'm really hoping we get full audio productions akin to the last word series; O Griot mine.
Given that lore tab where Crow talks to an illusion of Mara (prob Riven) at Mara's old throne, and the soulful goodbyes this week, I kind of expect Crow to have made an (unwitting) wish to Riven to give his life so that Cayde-6 may be resurrected, Especially with Riven's one final death, one final meal lines. So you have thoughts on this?
Evaze did a video on this a couple days ago, and my theory along with a lot of others is this. Savathun's wish "Open a path to the Traveler pale heart to follow the Witness" and Crow's wish to "Tell Cayde IN PERSON that he wished he had never pulled the trigger" are so close that they can be fulfilled by the same wish!
6:35 - admit it, you paused to check
Nope. My discord doesn’t make noise.
Still think that spire like, that white key like spike sticking out of the Winess's Pyramid, where Nezarec met his end and which points straight to the center of the Portal in the Traveler has some part t play in our Journey to it. I could be completely wrong, but........
In a weird way, I'm going to miss Riven. I hope at some point, she and Taranis have more of a part to play in D2's future. Also Byf, I know D2's future is anything but sure right now. But thank you for all of your amazing work over the years. I never would have cared about Destiny's story, if not for you.
Crow is probably standing around in the same place we'll find him in 5 months lol. Just some cool writen story until Bungie drops the trailer for the final season.
Give us more Tslayp! We need more of you and Chromaaaaar!
It definitely should've been a big "Crow goes into the Traveler portal" than "Hey, here's one right here, go" and then it stops. No teaser of the Pale Heart, no big build up, nothing.
The discord ping at 6:36 threw me off lmao
It would’ve felt more hype in my opinion if it was the Guardian that did this.
In D1, it was thanks to Mara and Uldren that we found the way into the Black Garden and slayed the Black Heart.
This would have been the perfect callback moment for D1 Vets and new players alike for the Guardian to go into the Pale Heart to open the way, and eventually face the Witness.
I feel like this entire year of story’s was filler. That said I enjoyed season of the witch.
I mean technically it was. Lightfall wasnt supposed to happen at all.
Yea all this time in between would be perfect to show what’s going on because knowing Bungie it’s just going to start with cayde being there and we have to read the lore tab to find out how
I’ve never heard bro sound so displeased 13:29
Ain’t been this early in a while. Can’t wait to hear what Byf has to say!
Long form bif content? My prayers have been answered
Still have that mystery bridge at the end of Starcrossed
I really thought it’d be the Guardian that would be the first to cross the threshold into the Traveler. But, it makes sense. Instead of Mara, Crow will be the first this time. To take the leap of faith, and defy fate’s rigid path. Still, it makes sense for a Hunter. Crow would do as Hunters always do: hunt, explore, and discover the wilds yet outside our reach. The Hunters marked the wilds of Earth, depths of Mercury, frigid icecaps of Europa, and other worlds within, and planes beyond, Sol. Now, Crow will scout the unknown confines within the Traveler. No doubt, he’ll return with stories to tell, and maybe, even officially indoctrinated, as Hunter Vanguard.
It's never the Guardian, we are just observers of what the actual characters are doing.
@@NGCAnderopolis we canonically killed Oryx and several other big bads
@@romanbloomfield9066 yeah, and still Eris and cayde got all of the cutscenes and lore remarks.
@@NGCAnderopolis Yeah but we don’t need remarks. We’re the weapon. Thats kinda always been the point. But I do like seeing my guardian in cutscenes
Would you be willing to release podcasts of the upcoming longform content? I'd love it as is from the video, no need to reconsider scripting. Podcasts are so flexible as a format and your narration works so well as audio
"Until we meet again, Mara"
Sounds like a deliberate choice of words from Riven. Methinks the creature that finds its power from the gulf between words and desire might still know something. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, of all the characters in Destiny, Riven (along with Savathuun, who already had at least one secret dealing with the Ahamkara) is the one whose words require the most scrutiny. Even suggesting that they might meet again could be all Riven needs to make it a reality.
CORRECT. Glad someone else can think critically. The lore card from 2015 that proves you correct. Riven.
Things I saw inside
A wild river and a broken dam (or maybe it's just the sea crashing through a narrow gap I can't be sure). Waves slam through the gap and where they hit the stone they throw up pillars of spray that pierce the mist and crash down in thunder. There's a giant in the cataract, trying to wade against the current, and I can tell it wants to reach the lever and pull the lever which will seal off the flow or maybe give it the sword, but the torrent throws it back so it just keeps its head down and tries to push on. I can't see the face but it breathes out white smoke. I feel for it hard.
A world painted around the interior like a stranger Earth everted and glued inside itself but I don't believe this one it's too much like a metaphor.
*A switchboard or a train station, empty, dead (waiting). The tunnels branch off into infinity. I stare down one for a long time and see a pale worm move in hungry coils around itself. I think this one is the most likely although I might have brought the worm.*
*An egg but I'm not sure if the broth inside is warm still, or if it's gone to rot, or if the warmth comes from the struggles of the tiny winged zygote or the bleed from the wound or the thoughts of something thinking very hard.*
A star I think. We count on stars as steady friends because they always rise and always shine but a star's a delicate truce: an explosion caught by its own mass so that it can't erupt and can't collapse. Thus I imagine the state of the machine might be. But one force or another has gone awry and now it rests here, snuffed and broken, waiting for the two rival forms of ruin to be set in balance again.
I stopped playing season ago just cause I got tired of having to LFG for content- worried about the future lore moving forward. Could tell your heart really isn’t in it anymore 😢
I hope we get lil lore bits from somewhere just to keep the story feeling like its edging forward
So do we think that was Mara's or Osiris' Discord going off? 6:35
The simps have found their queen.
My question though, what in the world that that weird heart beat at the end there. Mara looked like she sensed it when he hands moved in that 3 second shot
Assuming that’s crows heartbeat
Probably emphasizing the connection of the two awoken siblings.
Could be the pale heart?
Good thing we’ve got months to go because it’ll take me that long to get to the finale of this season. It’s such a slog for me
Lots of time to prepare for Final shape.
Bruh, I "love" how our character was missing from the cutscene
"I... intended to maintain a suitable suite of options from which to choose."
You can tell she's running out of the quick and smooth evasions by this point. 😅
Crow, Petra, Osiris, and Mara’s voice actors were great this season. You can really tell, Mara still keeps her guard up, and still vigilant and cordial as the steely Queen of the Awoken, but she isn’t quite as reserved and secretive as she used to be. Perhaps being humbled by the Witness, Savathun, and being shown the truth of every other dark future by Eilzabeth, and having liked-minded allies, like Mithraks, Eris and Osiris, changed her perspective on this war, and her place in it. She alone does not have to fight the eternal war, the Awoken need not carry this burden alone. If not for humanity, the Awoken could’ve been overrun by the curse and the Taken, if not for the Awoken, the City would’ve been destroyed and the Guardians shattered by all six Houses. Luckily, Mara’s interference with House Winter led us to very well win at Six Fronts. The Awoken having been our first allies, shows how much humanity and the Reef needed each other.
honestly i've loved finally closing off the 15th wish
im kinda gonna miss riven tbh, felt like we got to understand her character more this season
Crow!! Crow said the thing!!
I love how crow is like “you guided me when I needed it most, supported me after my memories came back… thank you” while I’m sitting there like… do you remember what those memories involved??? Like… especially towards the end???
“Everyone hated me for something I couldn’t remember” bestie that was us. We killed you over it
Funny too crow was still labelled as ‘amnesiac lightbearer’ in the helm, despite being the only guardian with complete recollection of their past…
Has anyone figured who "he" was at the end of the last cutscene? She seems surprised, or scared. Him being on his way, like if its referring to Crow, we know he is on his way, he just stepped through the portal. The sound effects make it seem like its a heartbeat or footsteps, either of which is ominous. I'm kinda annoyed Byf glossed over this and never even mentioned it.
That discord notification in the middle of the talk made me look at my Discord.
Love how the “final boss” was something snatched out of Forsaken furthermore using the Vault theme from the Raid. Kinda meh would have love if we saw inside the Pale Heart through Crow’s eyes as a teaser.
Honestly, I just feel like Lightfall in totality (expansion + seasons) have failed to hit the note of "we lost." Season of the Seraph's ending set the tone perfectly and Lightfall just fumbled it.
Defiance had literal jailbreaks and there didn't seem to be any real stakes, like the Shadow Legion torturing/using prisoners for something sinister per The Witness' request. Amanda's death was also poorly written and had no real impact on the story; she basically died for nothing.
Season of the Deep failed to really give us a look into The Witness and the Darkness, which is what the title should've mainly been about, but instead it was a literal deep dive into Titan's oceans with little-to-no interesting developments into understanding the Darkness and The Witness.
Season of the Witch was decent, but I honestly think it would've been far more interesting if Eris wasn't able to fight her Hive power fight away and we had to save her. Would've REALLY been interesting if we had to kill her, but then that gets messy with her existing on the Moon destination and having no one else to fill the Hive knowledge role (except maybe Immaru).
And finally, Season of the Wish simply was just a stepping stone to The Final Shape, which is fine, but nothing terribly interesting happened. Could've possibly had a little more tie-in to The Witness in some form, but nope. Our all-powerful villian seems to be boringly having no connection to the things we are doing.
At this point, i doubt TFS and its raid will be long enough to give us proper development of The Witness, but maybe I'm wrong. I hope I'm wrong...
