For those wondering... yes, this cinematic will continue to be viewable in-game after Year 6 of Destiny 2 concludes!
-
When a 4 min cutscene has more lore than a whole DLC
-
It's wild to me that a cutscene with the most important lore implications in the entire Destiny series is tied to a seasonal quest that will disappear in less than a year
-
Rewatching this cutscene again kinda explains why “bravery, devotion, sacrifice” is needed for the traveler to “bless” you, because the Witness & their people were narcissistic and greedy, the traveler helped their kind only for it to turn on it at the end. I see why the Traveler picks and chooses
-
What a great cutscene. Surely there was no drama tied to it.
-
I love how this perfectly describes the difference between the principals of Light and Darkness. The Light is an immediate gift of freedom, while the Darkness is a patient offering of purpose and structure. Ngl, I think I’d be very tempted by the latter if this were real.
-
This should of been played during lightfall campaign give us all motivation to stop the witness
-
imagine if savathun's origin cutscene was released in a random season several months after the witch queen dlc was out
-
The Witness: What is my purpose?
The Traveler: You pass butter.
The Witness: ...Oh my god...
The Traveler: Yeah. Welcome to the club, pal. -
When Ahsa says the Witness' first victims were their own people, that likely means that the Witness killed any of their kind that didn't agree to the unification and conquest of the Traveler. There is no way every single proto-Witness wanted this.
Pretty chilling stuff. Bravo, Bungo. -
Amazing cutscene, one of the best in the franchise
It's just sad it plays after a lost sector instead of the end of a DLC campaign... -
This cutscene has more lore than 50$ Lightfall ☠☠☠.
-
It's fascinating that a species that has had nothing but blessings bestowed to them from the Traveler for eons could be swayed into believing that the Light "might" or "randomly" cause cataclysmic cosmic events that could destroy entire civilizations, and because of that "justification" decide to... commit cataclysimc cosmic events that destroy entire civilzation. At least it's with "purpose", though, so now it's okay!
What a truly evil entity... -
Such an incredible cutscene. So sad it wasn't part of Lightfall...
-
Imagine living in paradise and throwing that all away on a hunch. The Witness is the universe's biggest clown car.
-
-
Awesome cutscene but please next time add something like this to the expansion. This single cutscene would've had lightfall get way more praise.
-
1:37 wait are those suppose to represent the 3 light elements. The eruption being solar, then the swirl void, and the rain arc ?
-
Anticlimactic now. Should have happened during us trying to stop the Witness from getting the Veil. Would have made that entire storyline have real impact instead of confusion...
-
So The Witness is literally just The Antispiral from Gurren Lagann???
