  • Destiny 2's Lore and Story tells us about Clovis Bray the 1st & makes it incredibly clear that he is and always will be a power-hungry egomaniac. His dreams of ascension into godhood via the Warmind Rasputin might have been shot to pieces, but there can be little doubt that he has not stopped plotting since he was last repelled in the Season of the Seraph. Today I wanted to look at the potential for future storylines involving Clovis Bray & what his actions could mean for the wider world of Destiny.

      I'd like to point out that the vex formed gangs in the prison of elders. Like we never got to see vex activily fight vex and now I'm wondering what their shit talk sounds like. I can't help but laugh because we know what all the other species sound like speaking English but the vex are pure logic so imagine them having such a break in belief of what would bring about their perfect end that they started beefing with eachother enough to shit talk and have faction wars. We've heard humans that got turned to vex speak broken English but from memory we have not heard pure vex do so

But, it would be incredible if he joined us and Caital to take back Torobaital. Maybe a year after he’s been risen, becomes a Gurdian, and gets his memories back, we use Deepsight, or other means, to rebuild the Warsats, the Warsat Network, and other Warmind assets.

      I have a feeling, Clovis will escape his prison on Europa. He’ll end up on Neomuna, see the potential in the city, and may try to use the Veil to usurp the Vex. In order to conquer the CloudArk, and the Vex Network. The Vex AI copy of Maya may try to kill Clovis for getting in her way. While the copies of the Ishtar Collective, may ask for our help, and aid us in ending this war they’ve been caught in. Not to mention, the Neomuni may be in danger as well.

    One of the little things I've always been curious about is if the quantum snapshot of Clovis's mind happened to include the Vex memetic infection he had. That *might* be the thing that's essentially protected him from the billboarding other AI copies developed before Clovis's discovery of Clarity and the development of Alkahest. As far as we can tell, the Clovis AI isn't in a true exo body and isn't running on modified Vex brain fluid, but Clovis himself was definitely infected and as it's been noted, Vex infection is a tricky thing to cure without a total reset.
    If he is infected, we could have an interesting problem on our hands with Clovis Bray, the Insufferable Mind. Finally get a Vex antagonist with a personality, maybe involve Asher and the Ishtar team for some more Vex Network shenanigans. That'd be fun.

  • @ryanosborne7534
    @ryanosborne7534 2 месяца назад +36

    I will say that the odds of Clovis alligning himself with the darkness (intentionally) or forces like the Cabal is incredibly unlikely. For as much of a psychopath egoist he is his whole thing is about being the savior of humanity, he hates the traveler, the witness, cabal, or anything that might pose a threat to him being seen as humanities god/savior/overlord. I think the real concern needs to be if he aligns himself with factions like the concordant, or other anti city human factions.

      @@Justin_Leahythe Vex don’t have the worst lore imo. It’s actually my favorite. It’s just very hard to make them work because they’ve never had a real “character” in their faction. Unfortunately, the reason for that is due to the Vex’s inherent nature. Since they’re robots running off of pure logic, and cannot grasp the illogicality of paracausality, they don’t really have anyone in their ranks, EVER, who we could basically form some kind of a relationship with.
      There has never been a Vex that’s basically spoken with us or with other Vex on a regular basis, and the Vex language that we HAVE seen is just gibberish at first sight since they’re so different from us.
      We know the true goals of the Vex, but since they are by far the most alien out of all the different aliens, it’s the most difficult to make work and not compromise their “alieness” in a sense.

The end of the campaign Cutscene will show Vex Portals opening up in the Pale Heart with new Vex frames coming through, and at the front a new Vex Mind that I believe will be Clovis. Through his research the Vex will learn how to simulate paracausality. He'll be our antagonist in Echoes.

    Has Byf done a video covering the possibility of Rasputin coming back as an Exo? A Guardian reborn in the Light, and the complications of that in the future? At this point, him coming back, feels like it’d be after the war with the Witness. It feels like he’d be a Warlock honestly. There’s also a number of ways he could get his memories back. If we can rebuild the Warsats, the Warsat Network, and recover other Warmind assets, Rasputin could be a powerful ally in reclaiming Torrobaital from Xivu. We’d need his orbital weaponry to take out her fleet, and War Moons. His Warsats would also be the perfect weapon to disable the Dreadnuaght if Xivu were to salvage its weapon and use it against us and Caital’s fleet.

I'd like to think that after the current loose threads in the Episodes get wrapped up, we start getting some Human antagonists. Concordant, Warlords, all that juicy stuff

    Quick question: season of the witch, Eris kills sacar Huns and takes her powers to become a hive god. Ok, now let’s go back to ghost of the deep. They were trying to bring back oryx. What if that was their plan as well? Bring back oryx, kill him, and xivu takes that power. Maybe that wasn’t as much of a possibility before in gotd, but what about now with civus current position? Not only because she might want to try and get the dreadnaught and take oryx’s throne-world as her own but also take the power to control it. She could also possibly find her hammer again and even use savathuns scalpel as well(I think that’s what it’s called)

    I think it would be really fucking fun if there were a dungeon or raid in which we fight a fully built giant exo of Clovis Bray. Similar to the Oryx fight where he is leaning over the edge of the battlefield. And maybe we have 3 phases where we have to destroy each of his arms and then his head.
    someone in the comments also said something about his merging with the vex and making his own version of them, and I think that would make a very cool enemy to also fight in this raid. Perhaps we discover what he's doing, and break into his factory and try to stop him.

  • @floofenboops
    @floofenboops 2 месяца назад

    Honestly, i think the biggest question is, what happens once/if we defeat the Witness? What incentive does the Coalition have to remain allied once our mutual enemy is shattered and its forces scattered? Cabal might stay if for only to take on the Hive remnants with us, and the Eliksni will either stick with us as the Travelers chosen or follow the Traveler and the Light it moves on. Savathun is equal parts ally and hanging blade, who will most likely only stick with us so long as it's beneficial

  • @theavengedduck6940

    Hey Byf I have a question. What's stopping Clovis from just making updated exos that don't need a subconscious to function and just attack the city that way? Like his factory is still mostly up and running still. I mean if I was in his shoes (pun intended) I would. Same time I'm probably just looking into it too much but still thought I would ask.

  • @kirillsvetlakov2438

    On a side note, now that we know both the stories of the Witness and Clovis Bray... I kinda think that the whole thing with Darkness whispering to Clovis was actually the Witness planning to make him a disciple by providing Clovis with a personalized understanding of the Final Shape: a perfect, eternal future for immortal humans where Clovis is the LUCA. His legacy forever secured, humanity once and for all freed from all its ailments. Kinda makes sense, I think. Or it is most likely not a new idea, Im just catching up to deeper Destiny lore later then the others

    @Wolfyon0617 2 месяца назад +1

    i think there is a solid chance of Clovis controlling the vex and a sect of the fallen
    with all of Clovis' research into the vex and a whole year left alone i definitely think he could either control or build hid own vex mind
    with the potential of siva returning, a small sect of fallen could easy turn to worship Clovis
    this would also be a very good avenue for a "new" race to fight as bungie likes to do, with siva/exo modifications to the vex and for some siva/vex modified fallen, it could be a totally different style of enemy for good gameplay reasons as well as not being to taxing on devs since they would be most altered models instead of new ones

    Im going to assume, if the next major dlc involving vex/exos, hes going to use what remains of the facility to somehow build new exos completely Puppeted to him. Making the building process faster, and perhaps even merging them and himself with the vex, creating the first truly humanized/sentient vex mind, like a weird Ultron concept or model. He'd use his new form to not only gain control of humanity, but as petty revenge against those he now deem as enemies. In the end, if he wins, he is essentially a dictator of the last city if all the "Enemies within" are "Removed" "Cut off"
    If this become a major dlc, then Exos or some sort of Puppet sounding name for the Exos to accurately describe their devotion to Clovis could be a formidable technically new enemy race.

  • @ashleyrobinson3394
    @ashleyrobinson3394 2 месяца назад

    Something overlooked about Clovis is he wanted to save humanity & his actions although egotistical were for what he thought would benefit humanity, his family and himself. He wanted rid of the Traveller before the Darkness could arrive and therefore they'd leave Earth/humans alone. Maybe shortsighted but not totally evil. Similar to our Guardians position when using paracausal Light & Dark powers. There's also the fact that the Golden age, ships and tech were influenced by Clovis and still are somewhat by Banshee.

    I still never understood why Rasputin didn't upload his personality into something else. That way his main link to the Warsats is cut but he himself remains. Also, imagine the future saga of Destiny be reclaiming/defending the worlds of the City Coalition from the Hive, Clovis, and the Vex across different systems and planets of different origin. Taking back Torobotl and Riis prime from the Darkness and defending Sol from Clovis' mechanical armies and potential Vex mind takeover to give him another potential army of Clovis' mind.

    I'm curious if there is a portion of the war mind left on io, I don't believe that bungie has really touched upon what is happening on io right now but I wonder if a fraction of Rasputin is left there since it could have been gone during the period in which Rasputin destroyed himself and thus leaving a unaccounted portion of Rasputin behind. Clovis is undoubtably planning something behind the scenes and I wouldn't be surprised if it involved io if it was not present during the time of seraph.

    Question this is just a theory that I got after the video but could the being that Clovis Bray was communing to be in fact Nezerec instead of the witness considering what Nezerec was does fits in line with the dreams and mental manipulation received to Clovis Bray as well as the creation of the Exos doesn’t make much sense in terms of the witness plans but makes more sense for Nezerec in terms of the torturing process.

  • @RuseVeil

    I think that we could see Clovis having a way to control the House of Salvation on Europa. With access to the DSC data logs he has the blueprints to not just remake Atraks-2 but Give Taniks a steel chair to bring terror to the universe once again. Atraks-2 could spread the word of clovis and have the powers of Stasis given the darkness statue in the DSC.

    I just want Clovis to reveal the body that the giant head in the BrayTech basement fits into.
    Question; does DER scale? Would a giant Exo go crazy the same way the one with 4 arms did?
    Another question; if a Fallen with 2 arms is put in an Exo body with 4 arms, would they go insane?

    • @carlosjosephgomez1495
      @carlosjosephgomez1495 2 месяца назад

      I don’t think so. Since the reason why some Eliksni have 2 arms (mainly dregs) is because they have them cut off through a practice called docking, made to make them subservient to their captains (they can grow them back if they consume enough Ether, which is why as part of the docking process, they have their ration of Ether reduced enough to stop them from growing back). So, if an Eliksni woke up with 2 more arms, they would be surprised, but not paranoid about having those arms because they had them before. Now, if an Eliksni were to wake up with 6 or 8 arms, that would likely cause DER.

The Vex have never really had a good antagonist because they have no personality. But I hope that Echos will follow us having to face a vex force controlled by Clovis with the help of Asher we will get this antagonist in the vex that has actually personality

The Deep Stone Crypt get blown wide open to reveal the Darkness statue. But if you can’t get that, store bought is fine…
