  • “It was good to dance with you, o’ beloved mine. One last time.” Didn’t expect this mission to end so sadly

    The storytelling for this season is leagues better than what we've had with Lightfall previously. I knew very little about Riven prior to playing through the season quest, and by the end I felt really bad for her and Taranis.
  • @ThatSavvyGuy
    I kind of felt bad for Riven after watching this cutscene. She once loved and lost just like a lot of other characters in the game. I think us helping Taranis in Starcrossed made her trust us a little bit more.
  • @chibigoji5080
    I wonder if Riven blames herself for Taranis' death. It was her allying with Oryx that led to Taranis granting his own wish and ending his life after all.

    Wow this completely changes my perspective on riven…
  • @Pigs_Foot
    Now when I read the weapon description/quote it hits me like a bus
  • @Archon3960
    The influence Oryx had over the lore is kinda insane when you think about how we dispatched him in Destiny 1. /
  • @gunamora7774
    I am thoroughly convinced that there is a universe that exists out there where Destiny was entirely centered around the events of The Great Hunt.
  • I never thought a virtual wish dragon would make me bawl my eyes out
  • this is one of very few missions where i take everything seriously speaking of, should it ever happen.. somehow - ill be there to protect those eggs
  • I have zero context for this cut scene, so its like: "Big ugly space monster falls in love and has a family. Big ugly space monster's husband gets murdered by random assholes. Big ugly space monster's people get genocide-d, and big ugly space monster goes into witness protection. And of course, big ugly space monster's space-ghost husband sacrifices himself forever to keep his big ugly space monster babies safe." What a ride.
  • bruh ngl this really hit hard, i saw riven with a whole new light, sad seeing taranis passing after all his effort to live a difrent life, and inspiering her to do so, imagine how their spawn would've been a whole new type of ahamkara....

    1:49 This reminds me of that photo of that dude standing on that hill of buffalo skulls.
  • @bobbyjoe8592
    Me and my boys were all quiet watching the cutscene, but the MOMENT the ahamkara hunt part played we all were chanting "YEAHH" and "USA!"
  • @teagan5494
    “Are we the bad guys?” Ahh cutscene…how bad were the Aham’kara? Someone remind me…
  • Went to this mission to complete the exotics, came tearing up to space geenie dragons.
  • I think this has been my favorite season. I've played on and off since d1, but we've never gotten so much about the wish dragons.
