There. I said it.
For the last few times December has passed by, all we ever get is Strange Coins from some unknown benefactor.
Well I say to hell with that!
We've got Valentines Day and Halloween.
Why not do an event for [i]one of the most celebrated holidays there is[/i].
-Snowing in the Tower
-Shaxx with a Santa Hat
-Rahool as the Grinch
-And more "[i]CHRISTMASY[/i]" events
Whether or not people don't want this for "controversial" reasons, I don't care about that.
This is gonna have to happen someday.
We call it "Winter's Fair" and it's based around the Fallen House of Winter and Variks in the Reef.
-Ever since Draksis was killed, the House of Winter has been looking for a new Kell to replace him.
-Nikoliksis, Winter Claw, now seeks to claim Draksis's throne for himself by using the "Scarlet Septum"; a Vex-made power source from the future, to rebuild the House of Winter from the ground-up.
-Return to Venus and hunt down Nikoliksis before he gains enough power all over the Ishtar Sink.
[spoiler]Edit2: I keep hearing this "Christmas is a Christian holiday" crap.
Well here's a little know fact for ya that I'm gonna quote from a certain friend on here:
[quote]it was previously the Pagan festival of Yule, before the Christians stole it and re-marketed it as Christmas to fit their Dogma, so it had been a time of celebration for centuries before anyone had ever heard of 'Christ'[/quote]
[b][i][u]CHRISTMAS WAS NOT ORIGINALLY A CHRISTIAN HOLIDAY.[/u][/i][/b][/spoiler]
Edit: well I'm glad to see this is getting some positive results! Let's keep this thread bumping! Keep the good vibes going!
BTW no offense to anybody out there, we're not trying to persecute (at least im not) you guys or anything. We just want a winter holiday event without any complaints is all. :)
So I guess we [i]can[/i] call it "Winter's Fair" then! :D
[b]Edit3: okay...um remember when I said "keep the good vibes going"? I'm seeing less of that now. Enough with the arguments and Christian implications, let's all just agree to have a Winter holiday event. Let it snow![/b]
Edit4: I see some people like the thought of Rahool as the Grinch, so I composed a short little song together for that ;)
[spoiler]You're a mean one, Mr. Rahool.
You really are deprived.
You're as cuddly as a Cabal,
You're as charming as the Hive.
Mr. Rahool.
You're a Legendary Engram
That gives us a green helmet.
You're a monster, Mr. Rahool.
Your heart's a deep black hole.
Your brain is full of salt,
You better give me MIDA Multi-Tool!
Mr. Rahool.
I wouldn't touch you, with Variks'
weird claw-looking pole.[/spoiler]

1 AntwortenBungie is in the US so F*** it why not? Most players are in the US. I don't know if the U.K. Or European Countries celebrate it. To christians and catholics it means the birth of a magical person that may have or not have existed [spoiler]ok grow a pair if you're offended [/spoiler]Nowadays it just means santa clause that big ol fat f*** some cookies, egg nog, PRESENTS, etc. That is what mainstream media is revolved around Christmas not the religion part.
-
The first christmas, everyone got a free legendary, thats how I got up for anything, one of my favorite autos, the paleocontact is currently filling in for it
-
Yes this would be fantastic please do this Bungie

Bearbeitet von Sepia: 8/25/2016 3:53:59 PMSRL and festival of the lost is destinys dub for Halloween, a Christian holiday in essence, so even if Christmas is a Christian holiday it's clear that the live team is comfortable with messing about different spiritual/religious events.
-
I am not a Christian..but I would like to see Christmas theme on Destiny during that time. Its fun and refreshing... The city that I live always has Christmas tree...and many of the houses have the Christmas decorations.. We like to see them during the night..wish it last longer. But sadly..time is moving faster when you are getting older...LOL

7 AntwortenI don't see why people would be offended by a Christmas event. It's just a stupid thing to get mad about.
-
You are getting yourself into some shit but somehow, some way, you are digging yourself out? I envy you.
-
They could deck out the new snow covered cosmodrome with Christmas lights.
-
-
Then they should do an event for every religious holiday.
-
Srl in the snow!!!!!!!!
-
This would be so awesome.
-
4 AntwortenI'm a Christian, and Christmas is NOT a Christian holiday.
-
Probably just change it to a winter event, and just have the elements of different stuff from the winter season through out the tower. As people get extremely butt hurt when you bring up holidays for some reason.
-
1 AntwortenFun fact: Characters in Destiny worship The Traveler. I mean I guess the idea of celebrating a holiday for a religion before you isn't that weird considering Christmas is a pagan holiday. [spoiler]Jesus was born in spring[/spoiler] [spoiler]Sort of hurts that whole "put the [i]Christ[/i] back in Christmas thing huh?[/spoiler]
-
I was hoping for a winter festival last year. Mostly because of how cool the tower looked during the Festival of the Lost. I don't care about any religious implications, or connections. I just wanted snow, and twinkling lights. I was extremely bummed when the festival of the lost ended, and all the spooky stuff was taken from the tower.
-
Sadly, all well get in SRL in December. SRL is nice, but I'd must rather have an icy winter event over a racing event
-
It doesn't even have to be Christmas related, any new content would be appreciated, anything at all
-
Let's go Christmas event we want it
-
It would be hilarious if they put a twist on t like they did with Halloween and Valentine's Day, like make all the general holiday religions have bits and pieces that the Cryptarchs have misinterpreted because it's been so long since they were celebrated properly.
-
What the heck is wrong with people. I'll just continue to pray for this world this nation, and the youth. Because, what's on the other side of eternity is NOTHING to play with. But ..... suit ya selves [spoiler]I don't think there should be a CHRISTmas event, however[/spoiler]
-
5 AntwortenChristmas [u]is[/u] literally the holiday celebrating the birth of Christ, and he was born in June or July. They moved it to the winter solstice, which was when the Pagan festival took place, to help the new religion fit in better with the locals. Destiny has too large of a player base for them to imply that they support one religion over another or any. It's not good business. A Winter Solstice Festival however would make sense, but it's too late to create something for this year.
-
slr is our event. they even said this. i forget who tweet'd it but he said something sny about having christmas lights on our suit
-
That's fine as long as I get a flying spaghetti event where I can unlock marinara sauce shaders and a flying spaghetti ship.
