Traveler's "Gift" to Humanity
When humans first meet the Traveler, what did the Traveler give them that help start the Golden Age? Was it some kind of physical storage device with all the knowledge that they need to advance themselves? Did it beam the knowledge directly into the three humans? Was it just the mere presence of the Traveler allowing humans to realize they are not alone in the universe causing them to work together in advance themselves?
What did the Traveler actually do, other than terraform "worlds"?
-
Humanity came into their golden age on their own, the traveller caused the collapse. The speaker was a liar.

1 ReplyI never thought this thread would continue to last this long. From what I've gathered from other posts on this thread. i'm starting to believe that the darkness that fell mankind was mankind itself. I even read somewhere that the warminds were tasked to figure out a strategy in case the Traveler became hostile.

6 RepliesIt made humanity stronger, faster, smarter, healthier, and all that stuff with its space magic. Smarter humans meant that we could advance ourselves more quickly than ever before. We likely experienced an age of prosperity where we didn’t have to worry about starvation and war and were instead able to focus entirely on advancement and improvement. Least that’s how the story goes.

I just wish on the next DLC they make character that would be traveler him/ herself. It could be a “Cortana” like apparition. Since that being is from light, it could be light in human form. It could talk to us or to our ghost. Just a thought.

Helped humanity thrive. [spoiler]until it didn't[/spoiler]

1 ReplyIt did nothing just like bungo. They are great with lame sci-fi stories
-
In a PlayStation exclusive armor set for the Titan, it told about humans traveling to Venus and installing Terraforming engines.
-
I bet even Bungie doesn't know. Heck, they don't even know what the Darkness is, and that was the main villain through all of Destiny 1.
-
It brought the Dragon Balls and they wished for it.
-
Traveler brought Eververse.

The presence of the Traveler and its Light alone expanded the human lifespan to around 300 years. Other than that and the terraforming It’s said that the Traveler gave us knowledge and technology, so maybe it had some way of communicating with us

It was my understanding that along with terraforming and granting long life, it being a machine humanity simply studied it. It is a big packet of knowledge.

Its presence is what sparked the advancement of human minds and bodies. Likewise it was its presence that terraformed the planetary bodies. It hasbeen described asa machine, and to paraphrasea lot of famous scientists. The most advanced technology at one stage will always seem like magic.

Spaaaaaace magiiiiiiic

1 ReplyThe gift was an addicting but butchered and shitty game.
-
It had a effect on people by presence, be it Light or something else. There isn’t any mention of actual interaction with it that I recall.
-
2 RepliesI gathered it was the mere discovery of the traveller that united humanity. At first no one knew what it was, a mystery so great that the whole world put aside their petty bs to work together.
-
More than likely it's mere presence was enough to begin changing people. If it could change planets and moons I imagine that humans wouldn't be too difficult.
-
It also seems to have expanded their lifespans. There a grimore card that seems to be done by one of the first people to come in contact with the Traveler and he talks about how he’s in his senior years but still has a body that functions like a young man’s. It even says that “lifespans tripled” in D1.
