Writing an Essay on Destiny and its use of paracausality in its narrative
Hi, I'm currently writing an essay about how para-causality and the concept of destiny (both including causality in both a physical and philosophical sense and also the concept of fatalism) and I was wondering if I could get some more sources about how these concepts are used in the Destiny franchise, it would also help me out if someone from Bungie see's this and shows me some more specific detailing as well to help my point.
Thanks.
I like how when I ask for help in a topic, but the only responses I get are people being dicks and not being any use whatsoever

5 RepliesYou have better luck looking through "My Name is Byf" videos on youtube, he made some good point about the power of guardians light giving them paracauslity.

I wish I could help, but everything about fatalism and paracausality went completely over my head. Sorry!

Paracausality is a big topic in the science community.

Sure I can help. It’s nonsense.

For the whole franchise, look to My Name is Byf's breakdown on YouTube on the Vault of Glass, primarily. He and Myelin Games (also YouTube) are excellent sources for not only what the lore says on...everything, but what the lore means as well.

2 RepliesR.o.i. dlc d1 would be the best example. Years of this community demanding nerfs of day 1 content. R.o.i. dlc comes out which for the first time, used content to address percieved issues with vanilla content... MONTHS AFTER THEY NERFED THE ABILITIES AND WEAPONS IT WAS MEANT TO COUNTER! If you don't know what I'm on about. Bungie essentially, only ever once, used content to compete with content. When they did it, was months after they had nerfed the offending content into oblivion so much so the artifact introduced was made entirely obsolete before it's debut. This disgusted me as a consumer. Hope this gives you a point to draw from.

2 RepliesWhy is destiny called destiny is the only video I've seen explaining paracausality and how it relates to the lore. If youve watched that I'm not sure there's much else for you.

Shit I had to google that [still not got a clue]

Have you gone to the Ishtar collective yet. They have copies of the Grimlore you can read.
-
Well the vex have such computing power that they can predict literally everything, so you can tie that into determinism.
-
Thing is, the lore and the stories you're looking for may not actually be in game currently other than Oryx. Maybe you'll get another bridge to your gap with savathun, or blade transform...sorry.
