Is anyone else completely turned off by this Star Wars crossover?
I don’t know about you all, but I find the idea of building a whole DLC around a Star Wars sponsorship incredibly disappointing. I’m here to play Destiny not participate in a Disney themed event. Crossovers are one thing when they’re limited to cosmetics or small events, but centering an expansion around another franchise feels like the game is slowly losing its identity.
It’s starting to feel like Destiny is taking a page from Fortnite whoever pays enough gets to shape the game’s direction. And that’s not what made this universe special in the first place. We’ve got decades of rich lore, original characters, and complex storylines. Why are we sidelining all that for another company’s IP?
This just seems like a strange move, and to me, it cheapens the experience. Curious to hear what others think are you excited about this Star Wars content, or do you feel like it’s a step in the wrong direction?
Ok, we need to clear up this “controversy” because the only people arguing this is bad clearly don’t have all the information/understand it..
It is [b]inspired[/b] by Star Wars, IE cosmetics, vibe, tone. All that means is a Star Wars themed rewards pass, and a desert/tatooine themed location. Which is kind of awesome because we’ve never really gotten a desert planet before. The story is described as taking down an “evil empire” to hunt down a new dredgen, which just sounds like a destiny expansion with either hive, cabal, or fallen enemies. And the main reason people are using the Luckasfilm watermark on the bottom of the trailer.. um obviously they put that there because of the collab and because they are using trademarked stuff throughout that whole trailer.. lightsaber, tatooine map, Han Solo blaster. Why does Luckasfilm being mentioned on the bottom immediately make everyone think it’s a full Fortnite style crossover?!
