You can’t tell me that Destiny 2 isn’t a telenovela for gamers. The Bray family has so much going on with Time Traveling Elisabeth, punished Ana and Clovis Bray himself.
NOT TO MENTION THE BANSHEE REVEAL?!

#destiny2 #reaction

Yesssss! I am so happy you finished out reacting to the rest of the BL content. Also. The timegate was removed a while back
Like how you are continuing this. But a little sad you didnt just play it yourself
35:00 – You had the same reaction we all did to the Deep Stone Lullaby. Worth listening to on it's own. There were world's first streamers who were stunned into silence by it live on twitch, it was a universal reaction. One of the best pieces of music along with the sinister Crypt AI intoning, "You now face God-like judgement. May it extend eternally!"
5:34 the Vex are hive minds but are separated in multiple "factions"
If you are ever looking for a team that’s almost always on and has a love for raiding and chill vibes I’d be happy to help take you through them all they are truly some of the most defining destiny experiences especially Deep stone crypt and Last wish. Deep stone lullaby truly a marvel of modern classic music
The song in the jumping puzzle is Deep Stone Lullaby, such an absolute banger in the OST
The reason why Ghost did the Drifter impressions is because Todd Haberkorn (Drifters VA) wasn't able to record those lines so they had Nolan North (Ghost) do the lines like that. Nolan also did Cayde's voice in Forsaken because Nathan FIllion didn't want to voice him if he was going to die. Also, Nolan did the Drifter voice so well, that Bungie asked him to make it a bit worse.
On the note of the music
the music at 35:00 during the space section is called "Deep Stone Lullaby" you should REALLY look it up, its so damn good and symbolically its supposed to be the last thing the exos hear before they fall asleep and wake up wiped and effectively a new person. Also set against the space back drop with Clovis's speech and whatnot is easily in the top 5 moments in the whole game imo. Also your other question you should deffinelty either try some of the raids or at least listen to their sound tracks online. Destiny has fantastic music all around, but some of the raid tracks are insane. Cant wait for you to start the seasons tho, beyond light forward is a really clear tipping point imo, theres so much good stuff story wise coming up.
12:58 fun fact, Ghost narrates this mission because drifter's va couldn't do it due to the pandemic
One of my favorite parts of Destiny lore is that as soon as Banshee woke up he immediately got rotten vibes from the Clovis AI before telling it to, and I quote; “Piss off”. He’s a great character and I wish we got more bits of lore involving him and the rest of the Bray family.
You reading the narrative previews is very good, it gives important context for the expansions. I don't think the ones after that had those, but look for the collector's edition's books
25:31 the Dark Future lore book is in the game if you want to see what happened in detail
7:57 – That's what I've been saying at the time! That, or just grab the ice statue, and move it into a secure location, beyond the Fallen's reach. But Vanguard did nothing, and, well… you'll see. Eventually.
51:23 there are no multiple exos, exos are converted human minds, so while there are resets, is only one to one
8:32 – 8:45 – Insert: "So that was a f***in' lie" meme
I have a personal theory about why we aren't able to shatter Eramis. (trust me, we have tried everything, from shatterdive to Prospector)
The power of Stasis is not of ice, but of control. It is the control of time, to an extent. We slow down time with our abilities, eventually to a standstill, where molecules align into crystalline patterns that resemble that of ice. This is no theory.
However, what is is why Eramis was put into stasis. We didn't freeze her, I think the cutscene showed that plenty well, with Eramis reaching out towards the pyramid as she once did with the traveler. It was the darkness, or some force wielding the darkness, which chose to freeze her, to lock her in time. That is probably why we cannot shatter her, a force much stronger and prevalent than us chose to keep her frozen and safe until it decides when Eramis can leave. We, the guardians, don't have enough strength to break her out of this inflicted stasis.
The darkness still sees use in Eramis, and such it will preserve her until the time is right.
Good news, you mentioned the fragment quests at 22:40, bungie phased out the grindy and timegated quests in favor of just being able to buy them from elsie for glimmer.
The Deep Stone Crypt is a fantastic raid, in terms of encounter design, aesthetics, music and importantly its powerful loot. Highly recommend you give it a few runs, and maybe consider watching Byf's videos on DSC lore as well. The BL year had some of THE BEST seasonal stories, and I know for a fact you're gonna LOVE all the juicy drama that follows.
If u want more bray family drama, get ready for Season of the Seraph
there is a whole lore book about these dark futures by the way, yes plural, time traveler and all that, essentially every other timeline is doomed to end in darkness
Ahh I’m so glad you got to see the background quests and raid too!
As for your question about soundtracks, yes a lot of the incredible scores take place in raids, so definitely make sure to get your gang together to take a shot at them, for both music and more story!
Elsie was really scared talking to Ana, since she had to kill her before in other timelines.
It is Elisabeth-1
And it's not timegated anymore. Old Questlines were only ever timegated on release. So even after a few weeks after release it's not timegated anymore
Oh boy, you should DEFINITELY check out some of the raid music. The latest raids have had some of the best tracks in Destiny. I'll leave some recommendations here:
– The Sanctified Mind from Garden of Salvation (Shadowkeep)
– Deep Stone Lullaby from Deep Stone Crypt (Beyond Light)
When you eventually get to Witch Queen and Lightfall check out
– The First Disciple from Vow of the Disciple (WQ)
– Oneirophobia from Root of Nightmares (LF)
The time gate only applied to back then so now to my knowledge u can do them all
When it comes to those two raid bosses; the first one was indeed an exo, Atraks, and you actually saw her in her normal fallen body during a campaign cutscene.
The other guy was the infamous Taniks the Scarred, who we the player saw all the way back in D1 during a strike and who’ve we fought many times after. In the lore every time he “dies” he simply is put back together with increasing amounts of cybernetics and prosthetics, quote “more machine than fallen” though in the raid he does NOT become an exo, as it seems we stopped them before they could convert him.
In our current records, he’s the only fallen to have ever killed a Vanguard! (Specifically a hunter Vanguard named Andal Brask)
Vex is the species we still don't know a lot about. We know that they simulate trilions of alternative realities with the purpose of studying things, but we still don't know if there's one single mind behind their actions
All of your questions about the darkness and the pyramids are right, you will have your answers, trust me😂
