The Travler shows up and there is 300 years of awesomeness then the collapse happens.. What the fudge is the collapse!? That's the great mystery, what is the darkness and how did it just end everything so quick. Seems like a large gap in time.

Lore evidence would suggest that the Collapse was the Darkness itself attacking our worlds, resulting in a lightning-fast chain reaction of events culminating in the near-extinction of humanity and loss of the Golden Age. For more information on the Collapse and the event leading up to it, I refer you to this post. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/215764896/0/0
