No offense, but I always assumed this was very obvious going straight into D2 (from D1) when you land on Titan.
Destiny is a fictional game, so logic doesn’t always have to apply here.
However, when you kill Oryx, his body is drifting off into a clear direction.
I wouldn’t call it far fetched to assume which planets orbit his body would get caught into from gravitational pull, being that the battle took place on the rings of Saturn.
I can vividly remember first landing on Titan when D2 came out (Titan was my favorite destination, aesthetic-wise).
The shattered green glass domes on Titan with Hive remains staining it was a dead giveaway, besides the fact that we’re on a moon of Saturn, where Oryx’s Dreadnought lingered over once before.
I wasn’t really into how subtle they made this in Ghost of the Deep, since it being Oryx (a literal god-being that we destroyed).
I would’ve expected more emphasis, or urgency on this.
We literally disrupted a ritual of Oryx’s revival, I find it strange that the vanguard wouldn’t excavate the remains of Oryx the way they did with Savathun (maybe they did! I haven’t kept up with the lore).

Oryx isn’t a literal god being.

One day the education system will cease to continue failing children, one day.

You confused being a god with being titled a god. As if the two are the same. Laughable idiocy.

You should take your own advice because that’s exactly what your original comment suggested. But it’s fine, I already corrected you.

“Oryx, the Taken King, born Aurash and formerly known as Auryx (meaning "Long Thought"[1]), was the sovereign of the Osmium Throne, the God-King of the Hive, and the master of the Taken” “Rank: God-King” “Other names: Harrowed God” Should I keep going?
-
Self given titles don’t equal truth. The Hive call themselves gods, it doesn’t make them one. That’s called ego stroking. And using that to justify a claim of someone being a literal god is silly and honestly? Given literal credence to any self made claim of importance is….questionable at best. The Hive thought they were the big dogs and got whipped by someone not even a year or two old. And if gods can be killed by someone who is a baby in comparison? Then godhood ain’t what it’s cracked up to be. So much for a [i]literal[/i] god.

Arguing with a dictionary is crazy, but have at it. Lol

Modifié par John Marston : 10/27/2023 4:45:30 PMhe wasn't a literal god like zeus or christ he was worshiped like one and could do incredible things but at the end of the day he was a mortal man just like you and i same goes for his sisters, the worm gods, even the witness

Modifié par Lord Indra : 10/27/2023 7:55:02 PMNever said he was. I clearly stated “a god being”, not “god” as in the end all be all. Does no one understand context and grammar here? Since Oryx is one of several Hive gods, it would make him polytheistic because the Hive have their own hierarchy based on whoever they worship. Definition: Polytheism is the belief in MULTIPLE DEITIES, which are usually assembled into a pantheon of GODS and goddesses, along with THEIR OWN RELIGIOUS SECTS and RITUALS. In polytheistic thought, a god is "a spirit or BEING believed to control some part of the universe or life and often worshipped for doing so, or something that represents this spirit or being". Class is now over kids.

Oryx isn’t a spirit or being who controls any aspect of the universe. He is only worshipped like a deity by his minions on threat of death. So by your own definition, he doesn’t fit it the deity category. 🤦 So his being called a Hive God is metaphorical. Which is not literal. Class is now over. Go home and study, I expect a hand written report on the topic turned in Monday morning.

Don’t waste your time, I’m no longer reading your replies. Good day.

Being worshipped as a God and being a literal God are two separate things. Aksis was seen as a God by the Devil Splicers.

The Armour from the Dungeon itself answers this question pretty well. Multiple Hidden teams descended to the seabed to investigate the corpse in the aftermath of our victory, most of them never returning. The team of Chalco, Lisbon-13 and Fenchurch were the ones to finally survive to make a report on their findings. The interesting notes: Oryx’s body is still actively radiating Darkness and Taken energy. Oryx’s body is still growing. There’s no sign of a worm carcass within Oryx. Prolonged exposure causes audio-visual hallucinations. Fenchurch recommended destroying the corpse. Chalco actually recommended quarantining the remains off-site and limiting exposure to even mechanical intelligences. We haven’t had an update since, but I guarantee they have excavated the body.
