The Final Shape is Destiny’s Final Chance
This was to be our moment for answers. What is the Traveler? Why is the Witness hunting the Traveler? What exactly happened during the Collapse? What is the Veil and what does it do? As a bit of a reverse spoiler warning: none of those questions get answered, and only more questions get piled on top. Destiny is in a dangerous place. This expansion’s story is completely inaccessible for new players. It’s barely accessible for veteran players. And it’s returned to the old formula of drip-feeding answers to players through lore books, rather than in the main story our guardian is at the heart of. Against better judgement, I’m willing to give Bungie one more year. One more year to righten this ship and get us back on course. Destiny 2 The Final Shape is Destiny’s Final Chance, their final chance to deliver on the promise they gave us nine years ago. I just hope Bungie is up to the task.
