No one here knows greek gods

:p. That's what I compare the hive gods to. Example. The hive have many gods. Like the Greeks. Crota Is like the god of war. The son of the king of the gods. But nope they just compare him to Jesus because they think the hive only have one god. This is comparing the hive gods to the greek. Orxy is the king of the gods. So orxy = zeus Crota is the god of war. Crota = Ares I'm just using greek an example.

  • FYI there are words for this... Greek system = polytheistic = many gods , Anglo system = monotheistic = one god. But aside from that... wtf are you talking about?

  • What is your issue? Is it a serious lack of self confidence? Anytime someone tries to agree with you, you have to test them with some kind of question to reassure yourself that you are the smartest person ever.

      • Wouldn't oryx be a Titan in Greek mythology considering that crota is his son and by that logic crota would also have 2 more sons ontop of oryx giving us another two raids because all three are just as powerful as each other. But the three sons would have to team up to kill oryx but because we have already killed crota your logic doesn't fit

        All I know is that fallen are like barbarians in history...atleast for the vandals and shanks...and maybe baron or dreg. Cabal are Roman like...legionaires, phalanxes, centurion... hive are like cults. Acolytes... witches, wizards... Just a guess Edit: the vex are mythological creatures more specifically greek such as the goblins, minotaurs, cyclops, hydras, and gorgons and the shield is called the aegis shield

          • Crota isn't a god. He's a Demigod at best. Oryx is their only God.

            • Several names are mentioned. Oryx is just one of them. And he probably isn't the most powerful one. "The hive have seen thousands of worlds taken by the darkness, and the've been seeding the earth for centuries, waiting for their gods to return" -Dinklebot Interestingly that line makes me think that the hive aren't the darkness, or even aligned with it, more like they are running from it. And their actions suggest they "feed" off the light of the traveler, suggesting they may of been a race that had once prospered under it, but eventually became hyper dependent on it.

              • Damn dude for real? Have you played VoG? Kabr is almost Perseus. Gorgons, Minotaurs, Hydras, Harpies? The Aegis was Athena's shield. The Hive have Gods, but the Vex ARE Gods. The are an omniscient organism channeled through machinery in a realm outside of time. The Hive are more like an ancient empire of the dead. The Vex are the ones with Greek mythology twists

                  • I wouldn't be so quick to assume. The people you talk to are the ones who don't know it. But by saying this you will draw out mythology buffs.

                  • If anything the vex are way more related to Greek and roman mythology than the hive. They have soldiers named after gorgons, goblins, minotaurs, cyclops, praetorian, and harpies. The two portal method in VoG is also somewhat related tonI think it was Janus, the god(s) of decisions and referred to as two seperate doors, two separate choices. I believe there was also a God for time and spice, although I forget their name.

                      Crota is more like Zeus. Oryx would be Cronus.
