The Event That Split the Entire Destiny Community in Half - Destiny 2
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 ноя 2019
- This is a summary of the events that happened almost one year ago from now. "Niobe Labs" was a puzzle event made to top off "Bungies" first piece of "annual pass" content "Black Armory" In this event, players were tasked with solving 7 puzzles with clues gathered from other forges. Those forges are "Volundr" "Gofannon" "Izanami" to unlock "Bergusia" forge. These puzzles also required weapons like "Hammerhead" "Tartaras Gaze" and "Spiteful fang" to even see the clues. Players worked together from inside of "Raid Secrets" Reddit, as well as Twitch directory and Twitter. I hope you enjoy the story.

The puzzle was so hard that even Activision gave up.
They gave up when they released the shit shows known as mw3 and ghosts
@@mattrex94 no fucking way did you just say mw3 was a shit show
Nigward o it was an extremely fun game, don’t get me wrong. Sniping was fun. New killstreaks and specialist were dope af. But everyone and their mothers ran acr/mp7 with akimbo fmg9s. Shotguns were op due to the extended msg giving them extra pellets, and the striker was a fucking sniper. Not to mention the lag compensation being some of the worst in any cod. Spawns were so shit on CTF that you could easily get spawn trapped in an infinite loop. It was a fucking dumpster fire, and I enjoyed every second of it xD
@@FecalMatador well thats much better to hear i agree it was a dumpster fire and i loved every second aswell.
mattrex94 mw3 was shit? You’re a fucking dumbass if you really think that.
It was a glorious time to be alive! Hated how it ended though.
Yep agreed, felt they should have let players continue playing!
Side note: love your videos ❤️
Essentially it was
Took me about 7 hours in total before i was able to finish this.
I read this in your voice.
Just more Bungie fake hype for lack luster rewards typical Bungie.
Keep in mind, this is what Rahool does almost everyday.
Props to Rahool. It's not his faukt I keep getting the same weapons over and over again. He has to go through so much work for me to make audible sighs right in front of him.
Rahool is a bitch
hint the cryptarch puzzle on zero hour heroic, lol
He can decrypt that shit but can’t get me a good fucking exotic for once
Ahh I hated rahool in destiny 1 I decrypted like 5 legendary engrams and got all blues and opened 1 exotic and got a legendary
You missed the part where they litterally had to change a hint to be easier because the original version made literally no sense
What was the original version?
Imagine if they didn’t give a new hint and kept the content locked. Two meta changing exotics probably would have been locked away for a year.
I mean they actually did that cause the hint was missing the stuff they added.
im just saying he left that part out. thats all
@@billycyph Without going into detail, it was left out due to a rendering issue (and VERY poor quality control on bungie's side. Clearly NOBODY ran niobe labs through on the "live" version)
“Ada-1 is the most mysterious character in destiny”
The stranger: “Am I a joke to you?”
ballisticdemonz n The Exo Stranger? We know who she is though.
Austin That’s about all we know though, not what she’s doing or where she is.
I don't have time to explain what I don't have time to explain
Um, the Drifter...?
Austin and? We know literally nothing else about her
We payed for Niobe labs so I mean we did technically pay for those puzzles...right?
Agree, the choice to try and solve, or google the solution is up to the player :)
No you daft fools we paid for the content the puzzle was added by them as some dumb ass way to bring the community together with more lack luster rewards.
@@brianbushe5494 And underneath you we have one of the lower minded people
Yes we did. If you want to see the gaming world move past unregulated lootboxes, then RUclips Andrew Yang. Fight forever Guardian!
Sam Mindel No you fucking dumbass we paid for the Forge which was the fucking content promised if we had paid for the puzzle then it would have been included in any promotional material. This puzzle was something that BUNGIE put in cause they thought it would be cute so NO.
evanf: "is this something you would like to see happen again? "
Corridors of Time: "here I come"
I was about to type this lol because bungo did it again
Bungie can't possibly think of another difficult puzzle right?
Corridors of time: Allow me to introduce myself
Didn’t they also got Harvard professors in on this too, I still do wish they didn’t release the forge early, cause the pop offs upon finally completing the forge would’ve been legendary
so basicly bungie is a military project that released a "game" in order to find best cryptographs?
Look at DICE and battlefield 4
They fooled all of us
Holy fucking shit.
To be fair, that's very plausible. Games are not just "games" there's a lot of hidden agendas most people are unaware of. And destiny has a lot of subliminal messages.
@@xBlackOutx21 What kind of "subliminal messages", I ask?
The real exotics here are the friends we've made along the way
Wise words
I hate you! Lol
I still play solo...
Brad Callahan what platform? I can change that
@@bradcallahan3546 me too :'(
“The person who is watching this.”
Me: I just got the game, i don’t know literally anything, why am I here?
OMG same boat here
Lmao same bro, this game gets crap for nothing, its pretty great.
Mo Jones that’s true but this game leaves new players lost. I have the game since the first year. I don’t play it every week but I’ve played it a lot since I got it and I didn’t even know this event happened I don’t know half of the things in this game I always have to watch plenty of videos on youtube to know about anything
looking at it, I think bungie should have announced from the get-go that the forge would be unlocked after a set timeframe, and told puzzle-solvers that there was a time-limit.
racing against a clock you know is there is far better than failing without knowing you were timed
Same
Tbh, I was really hoping the “beat Dul Incaru with 999 power solo” would be something similar.
Where the completion would unlock something for the whole community.
It would of been interesting because Bungie didn't advertise it as a "brand new activity" and it would been an awesome bonus.
Which is why Niobe Labs failed. Players expected to play it on the day of release. Instead we watched an elite few bang their heads on the door until it opened.
Savathun just trolled us. She is the loki of destiny. We all believed the book of lies. She uses trickery to destroy us and that makes her stronger. We all were fighting in the dreaming city and this makes savathun stronger.
i get the feeling something was supposed to happen, but bungie underestimated the amount of time some ppl were willing to spend on the game and didn't implement it yet
It wasn't beaten at a true 999. Maybe seasonal artifact levels don't count.
Nmotsch idontwannagivemyrealname well, “Savuthun” did release a troll post (by Bungie) saying that the guardian getting powerful fufills her plan.
So they definitely recognized it, so it did “work”. But I doubt that “true” power 999 changes anything now.
In my experience, players tend to really love when their actions become a permanent part of the story.
To have their actions immortalized in the game lore ever after is one of the greatest rewards a developer can offer their players.
We stand on the shoulders of giants.
This is why the guy who reached 999 first should be immortalised in Destiny lore as the first to reach the fabled height. They should add a lore book referencing a Guardian with his in-game name.
Cool Breeze If they add a Guardian named “Bagel” into the lore, I’m done.
@@theholytoilet6668 done in a good way, right?
KiddJerichoXO No, human. Done in a very neutral way.
Do not cite the deep magic to me witch, I was there when it was written.
woah chill out aslan
It wasn’t in a prerogative way, just a joke
@@janesmith1840 He is acknowledging the reference OP made, which is a line spoken by Aslan, the Lion, to the White Witch in the Chronicles of Narnia, written by C.S. Lewis.
@@BlaringKnight3 Didn't realize that said Aslan, thought he called OP Asian out of nowhere and he was just being racist for some reason.
John Auffredou it’s dark magic boy get ur meme history right
_Of course_ I wanna see this kind of thing again. This is the closest Bungie has gotten to their concept to _literally_ "become legend". Not just within the watered-down story of the deep world of the game itself, but it's massive community.
It's awesome when you think about it that way.
I haven't even attempted this yet and it's making my head hurt
As long as you can hold your own 100% of the time it's not that hard
All u get is a shell and a emblem that's it.
@@zygas25 and that's enough to want to do it.
@@ewangreenhorn1051 i have a ghost shell with a cowboy hat, tell me how a bland ghost shell would be enough for me to want to do it?
@@timcal2136 i want that....
I am a new light player and didn't even know there was something like that tied to the forges. I wish I started playing this game sooner to be able to experience this whole puzzle event with the community.
Sergen Has it was wild! I wanted to officially time piece this one for new players especially welcome to Destiny
Black Armory was pretty filled with secrets. Definitely my favorite part of the Annual Pass last year.
I don't think many of the player base has or ever will attempt this puzzle so you haven't missed anything.
You missed so many good things trust me! But there is more to come, hope you really enjoy the game so far. This Game got me so hooked up
mao I couldn't cuz I don't have annual pass that time
Ah Niobe Labs, the thing that gives you a ghost and emblem and something not everyone was meant to solve
Pretty much
Good thing, I got it! Warlock!
remi ster I think he’s trying to say that the rewards suck ass
And here I thought when Outbreak Prime came out in D1 was convoluted
I don't feel like this brought the community together at all. I didn't know a single person that participated. It was a puzzle made for streamers to collaborate on while everyone waited for them to solve it.
Exactly, datto is counting twitch viewers as people that "participated" here.
"Best and brightest" bruh..
Exactly my thoughts. These Events may be cool and nice, but they are not made for your average full time working Player. They are made for the full time Players.
This right here should be pinned
Lol like the felwinter quest, I was just waiting for people to finish with the towers.
6:26 Thats just Gladd being himself, mans is crazy
Wait do you watch CB’s streams?
Tyler Yep :) I’m one of his mods
Wtf bro haha
NotJo Daddy Gladdy is his real name
After seeing Bagel4k reach 999 light and try to break the curse I absolutely feel like events like this need to become a part of the game. At least one thing so that way the community can really come together for an awesome reward
Lol, "apart" and "a part" mean the opposite thing.
Knights of the Nine autocorrect lol
Except the only people getting rewarded are the streamers
That whole thing to break the curse at level 999 was a lie in a book full of lies written by a liar who becomes stronger the more people fail to see her lies. People seriously didn't read Truth to power
@@mikufollower8564 It was written by Eris, then by a Golden Age AI, then by Eris again, then by Quria, then by Savathun. Deeeeeeefinitely not a trap.
2:34 is why I stopped playing Destiny 2. Me "looking for help to do the raid and get (insert exotic here)". Everyone " oh you'll easily get help on LFG". LFG "Come back when you have the exotic you want, then we will help" is the standard response
Yeah, I haven’t done a raid since leviathan for exactly that reason. I remember trying to get a fireteam together for Kings Fall was a bitch and a half.
@@Fever_Ghoul its just
"You're doing the raid to get the gun that you need for the raid? Well sucks to suck since no one will let you join because you don't have the gun."
I played a bit of Destiny 2 and found it a ton of fun,but the social system is pretty fucky. Pretty much no useful built in voice or text options. I also heard rumors similar to your statement,that the game is rampant with elitist no-lifers who won't party up with people they feel are inadequate. So you're basically locked out from content that requires a group. I did play with randos while doing quests that seemed cool,so I'm not hating on all of the community though. The gun mechanics are satisfying and the maps are fun.
Either that or a different Exotic. I LFG for DSC, get told to come back when I have Divinity. I LFG for Divinity, get told to come back with Whisper of the Worm. Tell them I can't get it because I only started with Beyond Light. "Ah well."
@@Winasaurus That is such bullshit on their part. Divinity is indeed nice to have, but it is by no means necessary. Those people are simply perpetuating the long-held idea of the player who asks for X or Y weapon playing like shit.
They should do this kind of event again just set a time table in advance for auto opening if unsolved.
then they should also announce something like a one of a kind weapon or something for the first team to beat it, otherwise some players would be like "well, why should i then do this puzzle/challenge/etc if it just gets unlocked without doing anything"
@@shadowmaster335 nah then the casuals will start screeching about not getting a gun they paid for, you know the type .
@@shadowmaster335 You dont even need to do that just write in the description of the forge that it was unlocked by the 3 guardians with the help of the community i think having your name(Username) taking part of the lore would make any fan want to solve the puzzle
@@myst8719 yeah okay, kinda like some games have it announced for the server as a "world first" achievement, that could work, what gamer fervent about a franchise they love wouldn't want having their in game name immortalized like that
@Bridger Hammond Yeah I guess so. and people say Budgie don't listen ;-)
Crazy that I see new light players saying “dang I wish I was there for this” lol how I felt when I joined d1 in house of wolves and missed Crota and loot cave.
WAV good old lootcave on earth. Damn the momories XD
Pffbtt loot cave wasnt anything special because engrams still sucked. You didnt miss much, aside from saying you farmed the loot cave.
Been here since day one, 5 or 6 years idk, the game has changed so much, there have been so so many memorable versions of the game.
WAV noob
Forever 29..🤣🤣🤣
It can be a pain in the ass but I'll always remember the outbreak prime where you literally had to look up a binary chart and tell the people in your fireteam where to stand before aksis ph1. So in other words yes they should keep and add more to the game so that you feel accomplished and have something others don't. Saying this I have yet to complete niobe labs and am not sure if I ever will cause much like outbreak prime once I completed it I never wanted to do it again and most people have that mentality.
Such a fun time, I love those things that teach you new things in raids
Outbreak Prime is and probably forever will be, one of my favorite quests of all time in destiny. I literally memorized the plates you stand on to start the monitor puzzle by heart because i did it so much
Mattooee I remember outbreak prime quest omg the memories.. I’m feeling very nostalgic rn
The binary chart was super easy if you didnt have a bunch of brain dead assholes w you. Put the biggest dipshit on the 1st jump, 2nd biggest on second, and so forth. New guys that I took thru always went 1st....if of course we were doing the binaries.
YES I still feel like wrath of the machine sits in my top 3 raids, just because of the puzzle and the music
Keck yeah! I want more of those puzzles! That's what I loved so much on D1 for Outbreak Prime. I went through the whole thing with my 3 characters.. Great video man
I had a blast watching this. You had to have each person standing on a different symbol and moving to another location at times in between it was ridiculously convoluted and really propelled gladd to the next level of being known. He was getting so many subscribers cause he was like the only guy who didn't take a break it was over 24 hours if I'm not mistaken of him trying for the community
Thanks for watching this one, I put a lot into it! All streamers are linked so please go follow them if you would like to as well as the final song, which if you didn’t know, is a sample of the Gladd clip where he goes off on the puzzle
EDIT: ALL SONGS USED ARE IN THE DESCRIPTION TOO!
evanf1997 what is that song starting at 5:48?
Arian Balic it’s a Castelvania song, I’ll try to find it and I’ll put it in the description
Fantastic video man. Sub worthy in every aspect. Keep it up.

I didn't realize that the Destiny community needed a documentarian until I saw this video. Well done.

@@Ghost-su6vg its just rng with the rare bounty takes some people forever
it’s literally not even fucking bugged anymore. do you fucking play the game boomer
@Wow so Edgy it's not bugged
@Wow so Edgy its not bugged fuck you mean?
I remember my step brother telling me about this, not too long after Destiny 2's launch, I want to say a couple weeks into faction rallies beginning, I stopped playing, and my step brother tried so damn hard to get me back into Destiny but I kept hearing the stories of how it was getting more and more messed up with microtransactions and poorly received DLC. Main reason was I was so pissed my special edition bonuses were single use items, but eventually after being told about the collections (which I think is such a great thing, being able to reclaim exotics and cosmentics you owned, especially now in Shadowkeep) and hearing how good Forsaken was and all the cool stuff, I came back in just before season of the Drifter started. So its fun now hearing of the puzzle hell that players had to break through just to unlcok the final forge for everyone. Its fun when its a big thing the community has to come together to solve, especially when once its done, the rest of us don't have to suffer through puzzle hell XD
Destiny 2 Players: "This is a hard Puzzle."
Meanwile Battlefield 4 Players that went through the entire Phantom protocol: "it can get even harder."
What is this? Never heard of it.

Phase 1: Unlock the first Assignment an complete it: 200 Assault rifle kills, 200 Main Battle Tank kills and a total of 300m heatshots
Phase 2: Unlock the second Assignment an complete it: 200 Pistol kills, 20 Jet kills and 2 shotgun ribbions in a round (6 shotgun kill for one ribbion)
Phase 3: Unlock the third Assignment an complete it: 200 LMG kills, 50 explosive kills and 25 Roadkills
Phase 4: find one of the hidden Dogtags
Phase 5: attach the unlocks from Phase 1 - 4 got to the elevator an Hangar 21 with 4 other players ( they also need the unlocks and ervery player needs a diffrent hidden dogtag) go down, type in the code and get the Bow
Phase 6 : Unlock the fourth Assignment an complete it: 200 Bow kills 50 Heatshots wit the bow
Thats basically everything summed up.
@@stewster898 imagine having to know the fucking Fibonacci sequence to do a puzzle in a video game, that shits wild.
Lmao, i remember finding the lab out of nowhere and was disappointed that there was nothing to do there. Now there’s was a whole puzzle in front of me
2:35 you could hear and feel the sadness in the that sentence
Its is mainly because of the ridiculous requirements to raid these days.
@@bobbycollins7620 "these days" I mean, "must own gjallarhorn" was a thing for something like 2 years
Don't forget "You must have 50+ clears to even raid anymore". lol the mindset of some people.😂
Hey, really loved your Last Wish video, and great job on the others including this one! Keep making stuff, you're a really good story-teller!
These videos are super useful for my friends as they're newbies, they love your content as you explain everything very well and the videos are really well done
Yes, we need more stuff like that, thats what makes a ingame world feel alive. No, don't end it prematurely, give out hints if necessary, but don't just cancel your own ass next time
I mean you have to remember this community is also the community that denied the riven cheese patch back in the first week it was discovered due to the community being to bad to actually do it despite it being the best and most fun encounter in the game and it's not that hard actually and bungie rarely gives patches in between dlc drops so that's saying something.. :t
@@josim9244 It was shattered already, I was very curious about Niobe Labs and wasn't as impatient for Bergusia anyway.
You still shouldn't expect much from this community though :/
@@josim9244 That's what I said.
StephenSteve845 shhhhhhhhh :P
This puzzle is one of the few things in the game I haven’t completed.
Only thing in the game I haven’t cared to do. I left the game for a few months before it came out so I wasn’t involved with it at all
Phil Meeks it’s actually very easy to do
@@JDxxatteis it's not dude, there's a reason why no one could solve it and Bungie gave access to the forge to everyone.
Dylan Gantrich he’s talking about now that we know the solution... all you need are the weapons and a team now.
Dylan Gantrich bro now it’s extremely easy that we know all the puzzles
I missed the unlocking struggle and just always wondered how people figured out any of that. Thanks for making it semi clear .. yes those codes and combinations are like what????? Nice video!
Evan, this is absolutely the type of content you should focus on bro! Much love!
Videos like these gives me goosebumps all the time . Moments like these where guardians from all over the world comes together for a greater cause is exactly what the story of Destiny is about
this comment made my day, thank you!
Destiny is an MMO and part of the reason Bungie broke off from Activision is even because they wanted to be able to make sure people knew that, after all
Most MMOs also flounder because they completely lose sight of the "Massively Multiplayer" part of their name. Grand collaborations where people come together to all contribute are exactly what MMOs are *supposed* to be about. They don't all have to be AR games like this, but truly, really and truly, we need more things that allow anyone who wishes to contribute feel like they're indeed contributing to something greater. Things that because of their efforts help the world evolve and become more than it was. Actions that are more than the sum of their parts.
I understand that the nature of that sort of thing makes it hard to make anything perpetual, it makes it hard to allow anything to be eternally accessible; as a New Light I never got to experience these kinds of things, and while I often lament missing things, it's also just part of the nature of these kinds of games, that people with seniority naturally have experienced far more of the game's history and development just by being there with it. And those who stick around, no matter how new you are, will eventually have your own moments of personal history with such games, simply by time moving ever forward as it always does.
I hope Bungie learns to embrace this philosophy, the core tenets of an MMO, rather than continuing to skirt it, afraid to commit. MMOs are a dying genre, yes, and yes, partly because of society changing, but also because too many developers behind them have lost sight of what made them what they were to begin with. This silly shootygame has filled that void for me right now and, if it took the right path, I'd... be okay with keeping it that way. So... I hope it does.
6:32 gladd mic looks like erentil.
Lmao you’re right
Holy shit lol
A rental? Where can we rent mics?
Glubbdubdrib erentil is a name of a gun in destiny 2.
Love the description you gave of Izanagi’s Burden, AKA
“If you don’t have it, people on LFG won’t let you raid” 😂
Good job keep the videos coming
I didn’t even know this was going on😂
Cuz the game is shit and no one plays it
@@forever-fm1rw um a shit ton of people disagree but ok
Don’t get me wrong, I love destiny but I just haven’t kept up with the new dlc at all :/
@@xeno4946 the game is pretty ass wish they woulda just built off of the successes in d1 instead of doing dumb shit and changing shit that didnt need to be changed the game is hardly playable now I quit playing after the osiris dlc and it's pretty blatantly obvious if you didnt play this every day damn near since it launched you genuinely have no place on the game if you want to experience all it has to offer pvp is completely unplayable cause it seems only a few weapons in the game are even viable in the mode and if you're just now getting into d2 or just now coming back you're not getting the gear that will at least get you on the level of the no lifes that never stop playing what a disappointment this game is
@@texasthib2029 I'm not sure where you get the idea that you won't be able to keep up/get the gear to compete. It's pretty easy to get some of the best weapons
This story sounds similar to the “get to 999 power” puzzle that just happened.
6:16 I've never heard Gladd so angry.
Ever seen him with a shoe taped to his head?
I guess he wasn't that gladd
Ayyyy I noticed that bloody tears remix, excellent video!
Bungie 100% need to do more stuff like this! I loved the idea of starting at level 1 again it made it so much more intense but they should have added rally flags as you need ammo for the whole thing 😂😂
They need to make it less confusing next time
They also need to value the time put into doing these activities with WORTH WHILE gear instead of weak ass fucking ghost shells and fucking emblems. I mean fucking come on now how long do you think it REALLY took them to slap that shit together as apposed to the time it took to solve it? BUNGIE DOESNT FUCKING CARE ABOUT YOU OR THE TIME & EFFORTS you put into doing difficult activities. Just look at the 999 Shattered Throne ZERO FUCKING REWARDS! ZERO! Niobe labs super difficult puzzle and a FUCKING GHOST SHELL AMD EMBLEM something that took them all of maybe an hour or two to slap together.
@@PennyPeterWacker the throne was a trap to begin with we knew abot it like half a year ago (only small brain would think it was real) and for Niobes Labs it's more for the completion and your own triumph and less for the loot nothing in-game
Krethrin I mean if that show fits you then sure
@@PennyPeterWacker Love how you don't address Veist Viper, lol.
Activity comes out a week after the season: I can wait.
Activity is locked behind a 3 day long puzzle: YoU'rE lOcKiNg CoNtEnT!!!
This was a great day I wish they would do way more of this stuff I was at work listening to gladd and trying to help all these people finish
I would love to see this again, the creators giving a challenge to the whole community keeps the game alive and creative juices running.
Joined D2 with new light and I'm sad I couldn't be a part of this, the event just screams outbreak prime puzzle and brought a lot of nostalgia
I did this with my fireteam and going through it just made me admire how people came up with the code to unlock the Forge, it was an incredible experience...
100% would want more of this stuff
OMG is almost September of 2021 and this is my first time knowing about this thing. I was wondering around the EDZ when I got to Niobe Lab by accident. I looked it up on YT. I didn't know it was this old.
Lmao “Bloody Tears” is a great song to use with the context of the video
When you talk about it being soft released before being solved it's kind of important to remember they "forgot" to release the final clue, and once they did we had it within like minutes. Raidsecrets discord had been going nonstop for days and the second they released the final clue people had figured out the solution.
Niobe Labs emblem is still my favorite to wear, I actually feel like I earned it compared to most others.
The floor caved in with the weight of our jaws suddenly dropping so hard.
(Was one of the many working on *all* the puzzles, not just the unlock for the last forge)
@@timp.211 as someone who has zero interest in destiny, but loves grandiose puzzles like this, thanks for your time mates!
Yeah it would be sweet to see another thing like this
We need more of these
They should have another big puzzle to further join the community together. I honestly thought it was really cool what they did.
I'm happy I got involved with the third emblem puzzle and was one of the folks spearheading Niobe Labs proper.
Sad it took so long since puzzle 7 was essentially broken and ruined an otherwise insanely good event.
I will say, there may not be a super good recorded history of the emblem unlocks but I think they're critical to the problem solving behind Niobe Labs.
If you have time, might be another good video to make!
TheTeawrex thanks for the comment and all of what you do! ❤️
These kind of events are what i live for. The huge community wide puzzles and mysteries are amazing!
More puzzles! Always! That's part of the Destiny fun from day 1!
my opinion on the question “should there be another Niobe Labs type event”. My answer is I’d love to have another puzzle like this. I feel like that when gladd pulled it off everyone was crying tears of joy and relief. possibly one of the most iconic moments in destiny 2’s history just happened. when something takes that long and it has that iconic of an outcome. it brings the community together. it makes us feel like we can accomplish the toughest bs bungee could throw at us. I’d love to see soooo many more of these. a vex, cabal, hell even a darkness puzzle. there’s so many opportunities to make something great like Niobe labs. the ball is in bungies court
I get what you're saying but literally THOUSANDS of players paid for an elite few to complete that puzzle.
It wasn't even advertised as that. Players bought a season pass to play new content.
Instead we were forced to watch a few top players, (sometimes brute force a solution) have fun and unlock it for us.
It soured the whole season.
I know that but that feeling of just “finally it’s over” is awesome
This is what I’ve missed while at work.
same ._.
You were working for 90 hours straight?
I would enjoy the puzzles and such. It really brings the community together when hardly anything else can.
I dont play this game but I did try it. Cool video!
Would love to see this happen again. I wish bungie wouldn’t have opened the forge early.
Hey i live just next to brocéliande! There is a lot of stories about that forest
Did you shoot it though?
It's so nice how a video game community can come together this much for one quest
I would love to see something like this happen again
I would absolutely love another event like this. I was unfortunately moving overseas at the time and was unable to participate and could barely follow along while airport hopping. Black Armory was such a good expansion, but I feel like the way things are going now, we won't see anything like this until D3.
I know I’m a month late but you never know man! Shadow keep is going to have monthly content just like forsaken so who knows? Maybe bungie is working on a huge puzzle that requires you to go to multiple planets. That would be cool asf
Check out the r/raidsecrets subreddit now. There's a new puzzle undergoing at this exact moment! It's nuts.
I managed to do niobe with some friends las month, it was unique, a recommended experience btw, the rewards should have been better though, the ghost shell is neat as well as the emblem but I think we deserved more tbh
Yes I’m here a year later. Yes this is still one of my favorite and confusing seasons. Sexiest weapons below average armor. Going though a lot of your content and it’s very nice 👍. New sub here. Was wondering what you or other content providers think about bungie possibly allowing guardians to infuse a small number of old weapons to current levels. Like my ringing nail with rampage dragon fly. I really miss that gun. 😞
what an incredible piece of content. the lore behind it and the black armory in general.. and the feeling when you finally complete it. the fact that the hints were taken outside of the game makes it even better; sure, it might have been overkill for a forge but niobe labs is probably the best thing in the game, in my opinion at least.
I had just started playing D2 when this event started so I was clueless, playing the Red War campaign. But I agree, for the people who spent hours trying to solve the puzzle, there should've been better prizes than some exotic ghost shell. I also agree that bungie should've allowed for the deadline to be reached before opening the gates to bergusia.
Didn't even know about this wtf I must live under a rock
Same bruh 😂😂
Same
I feel a deep sense of disappointment lmao
Same
theres a surprising number of people who dont
I know I’m late to this but congratulations on hitting 1 million views on this video dude!
This feels like those Cicada101 puzzles. Kudos for figuring it out.
I didn’t even know the event was going on, it completing bypassed me. However I think the most disappointing thing was how quickly they abandoned the vision. Less than 81hrs is kind of ridiculous.
I mean, their visions were shit. Their hints were shit and they knew it.
It seems that they gave up easily on their visions, however, the amount of hate they were getting from people on Twitter reddit and their own forum, after 24 hours of lab not being completed forced them to open the forge. I was playing back then, and it was unreal, it's nothing compared to the hate they got now for final assault or overall during the season for recycling most of the content, they probably were on the merge of major loss of player base because they locked content for which players paid behind an extremely hard and sophisticated puzzle. Ngl, personally I love the idea of Niobe labs, and would love to see something like that in game again, but maybe a slightly easier version
I feel like they kinda had to. One of the exotics you needed that forge to get has a kinda long quest and had a step that was tied to an activity that is only playable every three weeks. They got a lot of shit for the puzzle but imagine how much more they would get if the forge was unlocked so late that people didn't have time to do the quest and had to wait another 3 weeks just to finish it.
*Hold up, I didnt realize that was the lab. I found that before this event completed and i didnt even KNOW about the event at the time since I was newer. RIP*
this was one of the most hardest puzzles I've ever done I beat it a while ago but I felt so great finally beating this
This reminded me of the Lucid Nightmare and the Abyssal Mind Wyrm mount for World of Warcraft back in Legion. A lot of people had came together to find out and the puzzles with it and even having to learn binary just to move on. Thing is that the mounts are still obtainable but you do these puzzles. The Mind Wyrm had you do a 3 by 3 cube or it was a 9 by 9 cube. It was fun and considering I joined late to this (season of the drifter) I didn't experience this but I love This stuff. I wouldn't mind it again
What they should have done was released the puzzle a week early and gave us a "One week" deadline to solve it, either releasing it on time if we fail, or early if we succeeded... I'd see that as a win win.
I also wasn't playing during this time so I missed all the drama, but I still think my opinion would have been the same.
The Drama wasn't really that big for most of the players. Most did not even really care bout the puzzle, bcs of work/school and stuff. Some tried it, gave up and waited for someone to solve it or bungie to release it.
But the idea to bring sth like that a week or 2 before a big content update, so people could "work" for that new content on a fun way is dope! (And also they could focus just a bit more on solo players)
These secret missions make Destiny great
Great video. Did not even know that happened. I found forges too hard till my light level was about 900. Ha ha.
i love destiny and all but damn i feel so stupid, i'm not smart enough to even attempt this, i salute those who even going in blind would have a plan. here i thought the puzzle to get the outbreak prime was complicated -___- i sub to you simply based on how long it must have taken you to write the script, the long hours, juggling this and real life, gather notes, video clips, giving credit to those involved, bravo man good job.
You missed the part where on console, with a controller and capped sensitivity, it was nearly impossible for the player to even attempt doing the puzzles due to the time limit and poor hit registration.
Damn, missed this event. I stopped playing Destiny for a year and ended up missing this.
Hey nice White Glint pfp :D
why thank you.
@@Razgriz_01 Still play Armored Core?
Was playing it during the summer, then burnt out.
@@Razgriz_01 Aw, I have been looking for people to play with :c
New sub. Great video
I'd really bet that someting spicy as this coming in Fall
Dude this video is top tier content. Keep it up and you will grow.
This event was really great, i would like to see something like this again. The reward was not the best but the event was still awesome. If bungie do something similar it would be awesome if we get a cool emblem and a set of universal ornaments.
Great vid
Seeing this just makes me want my kindled orchid and tartaras gaze back.
A final d2 puzzle that leads to D3 ..I don’t even even know if that makes sense but yeah
TBH I remember a time when we used to play 2D games and the community would come together to find a secret the moment the creator said "there's a secret in the game" and that was it. It didn't matter how hard. It was an experience WORTH having. If anything the difficulty provided QUALITY. I think they need more TBH
I had no idea about any of this kind of stuff. I've been playing this game since it fist came out years ago. But I rarely play and play by myself. I've missed so much over the years.
I like the GoT finale.
Good job o the video, thx.
