I love how the music goes to “terrifying ambient”, a quiet sound of death, the creeping sound of violins and chanting…but the INSTANT you’re able to deal damage to Crota, it kicks up 10 notches and never goes back down, because if it can bleed, you can kill it. It goes from hopelessness to “there’s a chance you may be able survive and live to tell the tale”.

Destiny lore describes Crota as one of the most fearsome opponents to humanity ever faced. He killed hundreds of guardians by himself and was the reason the moon was abandoned. However, between D2 version and D1 he is more menacing in D2 for sure because he seems more menacing with his appearance. The biggest difference I think from his fight in D1 and D2 is that in D1 you had no health regen during the fight unless you were holding the chalice of light.

Really loving how they changed up the music, the anvil strikes and higher tempo of the original music is missed but imo this slower, imposing ambiance that gives way to the DPS phases' "grim determination" is equally as hype and more or less reflects where we are in the story. The more heroic D1 version was us discovering Hive Gods could bleed, and us taking our first steps as a god-killer. The more grim/edgy D2 version is us, the now-experienced god-killer, fighting back and re-establishing that we're stronger (even if the kill was by luck and hundreds of years of preparation by Eris) than even Crota while our universe is essentially in its' endgame.

I like how the music ambience gives off the vibe that you're stuck in a small room being hunted like an animal. Compared to the music during DPS phase its you and your team retaliating and fighting back. After that the music doesn't slow back down to pre-dps phase music. For what I'm thinking (since it was the first raid to do something like this even though its obly the 2nd) that "If it can bleed, you can kill it" which is awesome imo.

In Destiny 1, the moment of tension was when you grabbed that sword, and the music showed. There was basically no music until you grab the sword, when it suddenly gets cranked up to 11. In Destiny 2, there is tension the whole fight, and the music shows. Grabbing the sword is less important as you are the one dealing the damage this time, so the sword music is much less of a spike compared to last time.

Crotas theme in d1 felt so unfitting, we were fighting a literal god, one that has slain hundreds of guardians. In d2 it feels like how it should have sounded, a kind of endurance battle against a master of the sword logic, and a god of the hive. Truly a battle for the ages.

This is by far my favorite reprised D1 raid right now. When I think about it, this raid in particular required perhaps the most effort to re-introduce to the Destiny player base. All the reprised raids were designed in D1 for D1. This raid was terribly balanced when it came to roles. Most of if not all the encounters had a mechanic that could be handled by a single player, meaning fireteams could just check out and let a single member do all of the heavy lifting, which made for a boring raid. In addition, we as Guardians have become far more powerful and mobile than when this raid was first released. It honestly felt like Bungie took the entire raid apart and rebuilt it from the ground up. But the funny thing is there is really only one thing that is majorly different between the D1 and D2 versions: The Chalice. The Chalice was such a brilliant move from Bungie, taking a mechanic from D1 and redefining it for the reprisal. And I love how it always has a role to play in every encounter, like it is the singular beacon to guide us through the deepest pit of the Hellmouth. And they did all that and kept the overall atmosphere and feel of the raid intact. It really felt like we were plunging into the deepest shadows to kill a god. Now everyone in the fireteam gets to feel like a hero rather than that singular member grabbing the sword or running through the lanterns. And the showdown with Crota himself was such an awesome experience. And Bungie came up with a brilliant way to deal with RoW without having to nerf it and push players to use close range dps options. Crota is ready to square up and you better come ready for a brawl. The absolute chaos that unfolds when he breaks a well is hysterical because RoW is finally not the only answer and because he just smoked your survival tool like he was stomping out a match. 😂

IDK man, the damage phase for this fight just ain't the same as the original. I can't put my finger on it, but dpsing Crota doesn't feel as satisfying as it used to, and I feel as though the remix of the song plays into it. It's too fast and doesn't sound as impactful as it used to

In this case, the extension is the entire high action.

I honestly like this version but I don’t think it’s fair to compare it to the original D1 version. D1 had such a different vibe in general.

Ehhhhh, I think it's a little flaccid honestly. Sword theme is cool as always but I loved the old rave for being fairly unconventional vs the typical ambience track so to say

i was excited to hear the soundtrack during my first run on crotas end yesterday, but all i ended up hearing was “take the chalice” and “crota is being a bitch.” didn’t help that my ears were a little clogged since i’m sick. why am i playing destiny raids while sick? well… i dunno.

The real Destiny players understand that D1 Swordbearer music is the true Crota theme. Not this, if you disagree you probably never solo'd him back on D1.

Technically both are. Into the Pit and Soul of Crota... like the only two pieces made for The Dark Below, are in total reference to Crota.

Like... the encounter or the music? Can't comment on the encounter. Hated D1 Crota, probably gonna hate D2 Crota. But the music? It's just the first minute of this with one little cue to break it up every once in a while. Soul of Crota is a much better choice than Into The Pit sped up.

This just sucks. Original is simpler and the sword bearer part made it feel good when you did damage. This is so meh I’d rather it play the original and have the sword bearer music play during dps.

IN MY OPINION, this theme is beter then the original. It fits Crota WAY beter than the d1 version and they implemented the swordbarer theme into the melody REALY good and continued the melody around that heroic and hopefull feeling, as in d1 this heroic theme would just apear in the middle of an electro rave type song. I'M NOT SAING THAT THE ORIGINAL WAS BAD, i actualy realy like it, but I prefere the new one . (Holy shit i wrote am entire esay without realizing it)

I have come around to the music more actually. The raid not so much I still think Crota himself is terribly designed, and really all they needed to do was add an aggro mechanic and he would be like twice as better to fight.

kinda disappointing actually. The "DPS" totally lost its epicness. The epic feeling of getting the sword, striking crota and your teammates shooting a bunch of gjallarhorn missiles. Now the theme is just... Fine... Nothing special about it. Just another boss theme.
