A Dark Future. I don't think we were meant to keep any of our gear. I think the original plan was to introduce the fundamental concepts for a systematic overhaul; a relaunch of Destiny. Maybe exotics and cosmetics... carry over, but I'm thinking it was only going to be cosmetics and legacy progression. So how do you do it? A massive tone shift. I called it a lore topic and I wasn't fibbin'. First, I have to ley... *ahem lay a little groundwork. What is the Sea of Screams? It's a prison... the super max of all super max cosmic island prison systems. Each pocket disconnected, compartmentalized, and segregated. Each pocket requiring a very powerful key to open the door cells to that prison. We built bridges between those island prisons. They're called "leylines". We collected the keys required to open those jail cells. They're called Amhakara Eggs. There is no mystery here... all you need ask is, "Who has those keys"? That's the tonal shift required to relaunch this game as Destiny: A Dark Future. When D1 began we met Mara wearing a mask. When our dark future begins that mask comes off. That's the turn. "There is NO light here". Destroying the Traveler, losing our ghosts... Can you imagine that? Imagine it 👀. The Frontiers and Nether health mechanics? Heat weapons. Quicksilver Nanites as a means to preserve our immortality without our ghosts. Literally part of Maya's research. Imagine it. People ask... what would/could justify a reset... virtually a new game. Imo, that would... with the narrative underpinning. Mara turns... We destroy the Traveler and lose our ghosts. A Dark Future Begins. That's how you do it. One final cycle... one timeline left, for all the marbles. 5 yrs... 10 yrs to do it. 😇👍💠
