It was so badass she’s basically saying that as much as they understand the sword logic they also understand the logic behind the fear they have of Eris 🔥🔥
Did not expect Bungie to be a Faust fan, but I am all here for it. That image of Xivu looming over Torobatl like a tidal wave of death and barbarity is just incredible.
God I love our depressed goth jock space catholic murder-baddy. If Bungie fumbles Xivu Arath’s story in the home-stretch, I’ll be so sad, because if one reads the lore, she’s actually such a genuinely cool, scary, and sometimes hilarious character. ….I mean. She loves playing tag, figured out how to teleport by just getting really frustrated and “stabbing” spacetime, cries because her big bro’s gone and she’s having a midlife crisis, and used to prank said big brother by just **blowing up whatever entire planet he was on at the time.** She flies around in a fleet of grungy weaponized moons and she writes painfully raw slam-poetry about her family. I know she’s a billion-plus year old genocidal maniac who believes everything unlike her should die, but it’s genuinely hard not to be a little in love with her whole character.
@@supercato9613 One of the early pages of the BoS. She refers to the game as “Swords and Lanterns” but it’s very obviously an analogue to earth kids playing tag. Hive tag, essentially.
@@ironladyerimuth Can’t believe we finally got lore on Krieg’s mom and she’s a 20’ tall ancient immortal space bug lich doomguy weirdo who idolized her older brother who was Evil Space Pope and had bat wings and the power to mind control everything.
@nathanmartinez4718 Caital has been talking about retaking her home and there's lore about Eramis's wife and kids left sol and went back to Ris to rebuild
I don’t think people realize precisely HOW MUCH of a menace, due to how haphazardly Destiny has told its story up until recently. My girl Xixi has been successfully slaughtering empires who scale with the Foreunners and Imperium of Mankind for the last BILLION plus years. She’s rolled multiple galaxies and multiple galactic arms of THIS galaxy. The Hive faced virtually NO competition until running into the Light, which kind of short-circuits their whole philosophy.
You know you're about to be clapped when a lady with glowing eyes calls you, an existence that has been for Eons, a kid with security issues clinging to whatever you could lol
Unbelievable. Seriously props to the animation, direction, music on this. I was just catching up on content from the past year and saw this. I haven't felt that captivated by a cut-scene since Destiny 1.
Super cool. Please give Destiny Lore Vault permission to post videos for these sorts of cutscenes. These are super cool and the folks at DLV do a huge amount of super helpful work for y’all gratis.
Rewatching this and seeing Xivu’s wings with the hive ships makes me just think the witness’s size in a page knowing we’ll get a cutscene like this in final shape and could be just as intense
@@zeromech1450 well the flood has there fair share of being destructive and terrifying but after reading both lore the hive have done pretty worse thing than the flood
@@nosliw858 idk about that chief. The hive is definitely cool and all. And I think they are interesting in different ways. But to me the flood will always be a much more terrifying threat.
@@zeromech1450I don’t think they’re talking about who’s more gross or intimidating. I think they’re talking about who has the greater actual feats of destruction and extermination.

Not everyone watches byf. Relying on an external source for more casual players to understand the core belief of the Hive would be a terrible decision from them.
@@supercato9613 In my opinion, it is ultimately better for people to just read the lore cards and figure it out themselves. I do find this person's comment to be funny, though, referencing Byf, who spoonfed them the info.
Did Eris swap her light & join the Hive to escape the pit and i also wonder if Immaru was her ghost before Sav's, was the Hive possessing the light planned a long time ago? Or Sav's trickery.
a) she VERY much did not give up the light willingly, her ghost, brya, sacrificed herself so eris could go on b) ghosts can’t switch guardians, immaru was just floating around until savathun went kaput
The funny thing is that it hews REALLY close to why basically every Destiny PVP format exists, but to my knowledge characters like Saint and Shaxx who are tied in with those end up having little to do with the Hive a lot. I wonder about this sometimes.
gameplay issues; Bad programming since the last update on Thursday, poorly done update. Players are having problems with gameplay. Even with FPS being 120, the game seems to run at 5 FPS. Making the gameplay bad. this happens in PVE and PVP. It is impossible to play for poorly optimized.........every computer is always up to date with updates. Waiting for Bungie Sony to correct this last Thursday's update error. Note the number of cheaters has increased a lot since the last update on Thursday. If the objective of the update was the effectiveness of the game's antivirus, it didn't work.
The only way forward for destiny as a franchise is for bungie to be removed! And the people who play this garbage to wise up and stop buying recycled content!
Thankyou bungie for making a raid boss that essentially requires u too only have wells and solar titans along with disabling malfeasance which ruins luckypants builds its very obvious yall play test yalls mods raids before yall release them to make them fair to every class to play
Forgot I was subbed to this. No point in being subbed anymore, game's just horrid trash nowadays. Heart goes out to the dudes still getting scammed thinking bungie will change.
inkblots just dont cut it for me as cutscenes & exposition after exposition just isn't the way to tell a story. The lore is great the narrative should be better.
One of the rawest cut-scenes we've gotten yet. The years of lore and story behind it make it even better.
But the game is still garbage, it’s time for you and the other sad bungie 🐔 riders to wake up !!
It was so badass she’s basically saying that as much as they understand the sword logic they also understand the logic behind the fear they have of Eris 🔥🔥

Damn, I didn't even realize it was Torobatl until you mentioned it.
What is Faust for those of us who do not know?
@tomasdoherty6502 OP is referring to a 1926 movie called "Faust", that shot of Xivu looming over Torabotl is inspired by a shot from the movie.
Thank you!! IDK why I was linking that shot with a black death painting. I kept searching for it and got nothing.
Xivu being a desperate child clinging to the only thing that makes sense to her and desperate to make it true is pretty sad and cool
It’s gonna be so poetic when she’s told that the Witness lied to them
2d brain
@NotReal-187 she would be in too much denial.

She sounds like a Borderlands character when you phrase it like that lmfao
Where did you read that she loves playing tag? Is it in the Books of Sorrow? Recent lore?

Hands down one of the BEST cutscenes!
Destiny inspires me.. My parents said if i get 50K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...

IKR in that shot she reminds me of Batman.
Hi krypz
@@namantherockstaryou're pathetic
Oryx when his the ascendant song dropped: "I will take them all"
Eris when the ascendant song dropped: "I wield their killers with a knife"
Chills
“As a knife”
Every hive cutscene is goated
I really hope we can see the home world's of the cabal, eliksni and the hive
I believe that fallens world was destroyed in a war and the cabals world lost theirs against the 3rd hive sister
Hive is a swing or a miss
Fundament, Torobatl, and Riis would be awesome destinations to visit in the future
That would be an overdelivery on Bungie's end
@nathanmartinez4718 Caital has been talking about retaking her home and there's lore about Eramis's wife and kids left sol and went back to Ris to rebuild
I love how she just psychoanalyzed and insulted the entire hive so casually
Best cutscene to date, excellent stuff.
I cant wait to see xivu arath in game from the illustrations she looks awesome
Xivu's a real menace
I don’t think people realize precisely HOW MUCH of a menace, due to how haphazardly Destiny has told its story up until recently.
My girl Xixi has been successfully slaughtering empires who scale with the Foreunners and Imperium of Mankind for the last BILLION plus years. She’s rolled multiple galaxies and multiple galactic arms of THIS galaxy. The Hive faced virtually NO competition until running into the Light, which kind of short-circuits their whole philosophy.

We need to have hive sword exotic weapon
It’s amazing how this comment mirrors the same comments back in D1 Vanilla
Lament with that one ornament
Hive. Bring a sword.
Transmat firing!
We have a Hive boomer now so maybe it might happen on Episode 3 hersey
Ok so us, who killed several hive gods, are now tithing to Eris. It seems like she may get absurdly powerful thanks to us.
I love the Taken King title theme at 0:32
As a Titan main, I like to think of myself as a big Fist.
So, its not much of a stretch to let Eris 'wield me like a knife'.
HIVE! BRING A SWORD!
Unbelievable. Seriously props to the animation, direction, music on this. I was just catching up on content from the past year and saw this. I haven't felt that captivated by a cut-scene since Destiny 1.
Its officially been 5 years since forsaken released
I wonder if immaru is gonna get merked this season, would set the stakes really high if he manages to raise savathun before he dies
via the guardian losing their patience with him. *crush*
@@SeaFeline284 *squeak*
I freaking love Eris Morn!
Sword logic is such an elegant piece of motivation.
I actually really like the small detail of Xivu Arath's face being cracked slightly on one side. Revealing more of her mouth
Aiat! Aiat!
Super cool. Please give Destiny Lore Vault permission to post videos for these sorts of cutscenes. These are super cool and the folks at DLV do a huge amount of super helpful work for y’all gratis.
Eris is the most badass character in the destiny universe, truly one of the best written characters in the entire franchise.
I like how BUNGO used the Art of Sixu from the Art book for a cutscene.
No likes sheesh
Is it just me or does xivu looming over torabatl remind you of Batman.
Honestly, thought she was gonna end with "And they are not prepared" and pull a full Illidan
God seeing this again gives me hype for heresy and Xivu’s possible full appearance
Me who have read dark future
RED FLAG
BIGGGG RED FLAG
"Red flag?"
"Crimson!"
Rewatching this and seeing Xivu’s wings with the hive ships makes me just think the witness’s size in a page knowing we’ll get a cutscene like this in final shape and could be just as intense
destiny 2 art team never lets us down- cinematics are always so good jesus
So Eris is a Hive God now
Welcome to season of the witch
Alright, so Xivu is a scared child. Let's put a sword through the scared child, for Holiday.
Eris roasting Xivu is one of the best parts of the season so far
Eris bringing in the new death wave for humanity. The line between Light and Darkness is so very thin....
I’ll say it once and I’ll say it again the hive are the most badass and terrifying alien race I’ve ever seen 🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️

0:22 I just noticed took inspiration from byf’s video dynasty for Oryx’s pose
….ummmmmm no. That’s a common concept art.
Man, reclaiming Torobatl from Xivu would be such a cool seasonal story.
I wonder how Torobatl would be designed?
@@Jakesterpop1really hive since you know
This cutscene was really cool
Watch Eris become the next Hive baddie once we are all finished with the siblings...
ok but when will yall finally release that sick beat at the end
very nice
Does anyone know the sound track ?
Can we please get a Tex Mechanica ornament for Actium War Rig to go with our Xenophages?

Seems they changed Xivus appearance, at first she looked like Terra from kingdom hearts

So basically it’s the hives version of survival of the fittest?
Imagine if they didn't remove this from the game so people could actually follow the story without having to turn to youtube
