Destiny 2 Echoes Slander

[@Forcer69]

Gonna be honest, I’ve wanted to do another Slander video for a few months now. But between community morale, the layoffs and me not wanting to make one towards Warframe, I just haven’t made any. Decided with Revenant coming out tomorrow it would be worth seeing if I should get back to making these.

What's the sane route to do Echoes story? Vex gaining consciousness and slowly developing personalities throughout the season, becoming unpredictable and better suited to fight the paracausal OR gay robot lovestories?

We are always focused on other characters but we need to focus on the guardian, i know bro is tired of dealing with these events

[@Al-cf9qi]

We need an episode where the guardian just says fuck it and goes to take a break somewhere far away from the last city, away from all of the shit going on

[@apexghost1294]

I’m tired of us being a goddamned background character. We are THE Godslayer in this game and are constantly pushed into worthless side character in exchange for the New Light Blueberry Crow and the gay Osiris and Saint story. I could not give LESS of a damn about them when our character literally does everything.

The/our Guardian is only allowed to be a character during expansions. Which I guess we're not getting anymore I guess.

[@jaegsandbcn1334]

Echoes should have definitely focused on the vex individualizing and diversifying. We could have got the first scene of a vex actually having dialogue. Imagine hearing a vex say "I AM" but instead that insane revelation of indepenedent vex was the B PLOT? Anyway time to play destiny bloodborne much cooler vibes.

[@pencilduster2938]

I hate the fact that we didnt jump after maya in the final episode cutscene to snatch the echo away from her or when we first saw her. We just stood by while osiris, maya and saint had their little talks

They forgot failsafe body.

[@staubinmichael637]

Ngl this one was 100 % true 😂😂 i feel that way

[@XxHUNT3RN4T0RxX]

I’m so done with the Saint-14 and Osiris gay love story thing. I hope Bungie moves away from that stuff going forward. Revenant is looking good so far.

[@harrisonczichas4341]

That’s not the problem, their relationship and Saint’s identity crisis would’ve felt good if the main bad guy felt menacing. Maya did jack while Saint is over here freaking the crap out. She didn’t FEEL threatening, she felt typical.

[@yasininn76]

Also it's so off character for Osiris to be so lovey dovey. HE of all people should know tp never relax just because the big bad guy of this turn is dead

[@XxHUNT3RN4T0RxX]

@@yasininn76 Osiris is also someone who was exiled from the last city for a long time due to his dangerous obsession with the Vex. That doesn’t seem like the romantic type. The Osiris we know now isn’t the same man we met in Curse of Osiris. He used to be something of a legend back in the early Destiny days. Now he’s just the gay grandpa.

I legit have no idea what is going on. All I heard was Maya Sundaresh, a name I vaguely know about in the lore. (I'm a lore nerd, but not that much)

Yes encore is extremely annoying. I don't know why we had to do that for three weeks. Especially if you did on all character. (Only did for one, because am sorta sane)

[@Sunny_3oy]

POV: You're trying to figure out what happens during echo because you speed ran the episode four days before revenant

[@SuperSpyArmyGuy]

And you got stuck on the exotic mission and gave up :(

thanks i ignored this season but now feel caught up

[@sharkdude7]

Destiny is comparable to a soap opera. That does not mean they need soap opera drama. Space wizards do not make good couples' councilors.

gotta say this is maybe funnier to me because i have no idea whats happening story wise and only just now completed act 1. I for some reason always wait until last minute to do stuff...

[@zonk2391]

bungie made eps echo to make guardian understand who is msund12 and why she is lesbian

[@RealityRogue]

I’m sure glad they didn’t do anything with the concept of vex thinking for themselves. Totally didn’t think that was going to be a MASSIVE plot point with lasting implications 😬

[@_____samuel_____3366]

The crafting parts... I will already enjoy this season more because I will not have all the loot instantly. With how easy it's to craft the weapons it feels like just instakilling every boss in a souls game first try

[@45Mistuikeidentity]

This season is actually pretty good

[@O-bearer-mine]

Genuinely, every other piece of content has had a revelation or something of significance happened, literally more shit of importance happened in lightfall, THAT WAS A CUTSCENE, that was it But Echoes was just 'Maya kills her wife over and over, Saint has an existential crisis and immediately gets therapy, and Maya fucks off. The only thing that got fixed was saint, who wasn't broken before the season, and isn't broken after. Literally nothing happened. Maya just up and left, that was the plot.

[@Hawk-Eye-bs2hr]

Osiris seeing four overload minotaurs: 🗿 Osiris seeing four normal goblins: 😱

[@cranklovesyou5311]

I know echoes wasn't that good story wise from the begining but I must ask, wtf bungie how is Maya supossed to be a threath when all she did to stop us was using some weakass mind crontrol and get fucking punked by one shield throw and a nova bomb. Not even low level bosses from minor encounters get owned that hard by two abilities and now you tell me she just gets turned into vex soup and dips? AND NOBODY TRIES TO STOP HER FROM ESCAPING?!

[@Kait07_]

Hot take: Bungie should've layed off that god damn awful narrative department over customer support, music and other core components. Destiny 2 has never had a good story and never will. Stop with the soap operas of dead families or failing relationships and stick to making playable content / gameplay. Keep the lore department for people who still care about knowing what's going on ofc, they still cooking as usual.

[@Forcer69]

The narrative team was layed off, I think they were actually hit the most from both layoffs

[@ozrhyel2234]

Dang, I know this is a parody of the events that happened but man it stings to know that behind the joke there is 💯 truth to it! I been playing Warframe since that last repetitive Echo episode... I hope we let her live because she will give us the last Darkness power!🤬

[@fadhilaiman7812]

Also guardian just stood there defeated in encore because of softlock in puzzle and final boss section

[@SilverSpectre90]

Honest question to everyone including you Forcer With the current state of Bungie, and please keep in mind that teh whole horrendous disaster that Echoes story was before the layoffs happened, what are the bets that it will happen the exact same thing? (Context: Act 1 Amazing/Great, Act 2: Mid/ok, Act 3: Bad/Hideous)

[@Forcer69]

I actually thought all 3 Acts were bad (Act 1 being ok, 2-3 being horrendous). I think between this being the Second Episode, not launching beside an expansion, and not being vex focus that it will at least be better. I’m expecting at least Witch story quality, which was alright in my opinion.

[@themadwarden6603]

Personally, I mostly enjoyed acts 1-2, but there is very little that can sour your opinion of something more than being forced into the same mission again... and again... AND AGAIN!!!

Having to solo encore 3 times just to finish the story really made the funny thoughts surface

Brotha I got a lil request, Because Potions are a new thing, you gotta use the “Potion Seller” video and find a way to include it. If I could I would but I ain’t that fancy. “POTION SELLER, I require your strongest potion when going into battle.” (A clip of you just getting domed in the head.) Potion Seller: My potions are to strong for you, you would die. (A clip of you just randomly exploding) -im p*ssing into the wind with this idea-

[@jeffjameson5082]

Destiny players announcing to the entire world that they are moving to Warframe and quitting Destiny forever because bungie killed their family or something: (they will be there day one for revenant or anything else Bungie launches)

[@zaviki7819]

You probably aren't wrong, but if they come back it won't be with the same energy. They might craft the weapons and do whatever to avoid the FOMO because of the sunk cost fallacy, but then they will probably head right back to whatever game they were playing, whether it's Warframe, TFD, or something else and be having a lot more fun.

[@lorgariiix]

All true waste of 4 months

[@phantokablitz2061]

There was cool stuff, but it was outweighed by so many things, especially the exotic mission being mandatory for the story.....multiple times. I should not have to wait until my friend gets to the same point in the quest just to progress the story because of the difficulty of the mission. At least Revenant looks cool.

[@AlexCunradi]

I consider myself an ally, but all these gay robots detracted from what could have been a really interesting story. There was far too much romance in this episode, when we should have spent more time learning about the Vex. This would have been the perfect opportunity to give us a Vex antagonist that's independent from their collective consciousness, and maybe, I don't know, have them speak to us? When's the last time we heard a Vex speak? For that matter, when's the last time we've had an interesting Vex antagonist? Have we EVER had an interesting one?

Honestly, while I love the romance aspect of the story, it would've worked a lot better if the threat wasn't the destruction of the entire timeline, and instead focussed more on the relationships themselves.
