So recently I've been checking out the lore for Destiny & I've been trying to think about what could happen next in the game. So far, as is pretty obvious, I'm sure there will be a massive "endgame" storyline for D2 that will probably end with the reappearance of the Darkness.
Given that in Shadowkeep the player is confronted with a Darkness version of him/herself & the Ghost is possessed by the Darkness for the duration of the Pyramid exploration, I assume that we'll be presented with a darkside/lightside choice when the Darkness comes back. Seeing as it would be difficult (& probably impossible) to fully implement this into D2, I think it's safe to say that this means a "D3" of sorts.
As for what that would involve (some of it to the frustration of many players): areas of open world PvP, the classic two-sided faction war, storylines with more friends dying & others becoming traitors, or Chaotic neutrals like the Drifter, & DLC or game progression based on player choices.
I feel like it's pretty obvious that a D3 is coming, or at the very least some game ending event. But seeing as Bungie hasn't said anything & everything is conspiracy right now, we have no real idea about it. Anyways that's just me thinking about it, & I'd like to hear what everyone else thinks about it as well.

<Honestly anyone who gives in to the Darkness fully at this point is the big dumb. The power should be used as a tool, yes, and it seems like we'll be getting those powers at some point, but fully joining it is stupid. That's not even a PoV thing it's literally a matter of life and death.>
