Give us the option to turn our Ghost's light on and off

Seriously. I have been asking for this since Destiny 1. There are moments in the game where it's pitch black and the ghost light will kick on and other moments where you go to an area where it's pitch black and it does absolutely nothing. It should be an option. And no, I'm not raising my brightness while making the blacks gray.

  • I understand that Bungie uses intentionally black areas to help find the next light to head towards, but there are times where if you make a wrong turn, you have no clue as to which direction to go. For this reason, I agree with the notion of a user-controlled ghost light. However, it seems to me that Bungie also uses dark areas to conceal things that they want the players to have to do a little extra searching for like entrances to "hidden" caves and hard-to-find loot boxes. If Bungie gave players the ability to turn on the ghost's light at will, it would defeat the purpose of the "betcha can't find me" stuff. Personally, this has also been a pet peeve of mine as well. Wish we could manually turn on/off the ghosts light, but it doesn't look as if it's going to happen.

    • I never understood why we have a flashlight and not night vision, like in ODST. We can colonize the solar system, have ftl/warp space travel, and can harness the light to do space magic and come back from the dead, but still use flashlights? To me it just never made since

    • Could make it an option on the ghost menu, like hold B for flashlight. A small change, but I can agree that it’s something I’ve wanted since the first game.
