Supposedly Bungie has abandoned "The Darkness" as a specific entity/ enemy. As for the ships? Clearly we're going to go to war with aliens from Stargate.

  • Ahh... but who are you going to believe: a rando on the internet with a spotty comment history and no sources for any of his wild claims, or Bungie? (Gotta say, I'm liking my odds here!) ^_^

    <Bungie. They said they didn't really know what the Darkness was, and wasn't going to really talk about it in D2. They pushed it off to the side in order to build up the Traveler (something they still haven't really done) until they not only figured out what it was, but how to implement it. Given their track record though, I'm not confident. [quote]“We didn’t know what it was, and we, for a period, we chose [that] we’re going to lump all the races [in together], and you see this in the tooltips in the game — ‘minions of the darkness.’ And we had taken all the races and said, ‘Ah, they’ll just be The Darkness.’ But that’s not what the IP deserves.”[/quote] As you can see here, Luke Smith said that the Darkness was a name for all enemy races until a certain point (assuming that point was when the ORIGINAL Destiny storyline got canned), not a specific entity/enemy, which is what both D1 and D2 are building it up to be in the lore tabs and grimoire.>
