as someone who really enjoyed the Mechon in Xenoblade Chronicles this is specifically what i've been waiting for from the Vex for years. just the shock of encountering a huge, menacing Vex that just speaks. and does so with such utter disrespect, and treats everything else even the smaller Vex, like they're stupid. i'm serious shit-talking robots/mechs is such a thing. and would do so much in characterizing the Vex as an antagonist faction especially after all these years of fans being bored w/ the Vex and difficult to feel anything towards

Her eyes shine, which is what happens when Ahamkara grant a wish, and that's that. I'd go as far as to say her mate Taranis' benevolent nature, and refusal to alter wishes for his own benefit, taught Riven how to be selfless. I believe her Cayde wish was granted in that way, as a way to honor Taranis, and do some good before she disappeared for good.

[@kais295]

@@romo_lampkin wow

[@emperorholocron8278]

Considering all the character development Riven’s been through this season if she DID grant Crow’s wish to bring Cayde back then that would be the most fitting end for her character. Almost as an apology to “reverse” the one thing she and Savathûn did to Uldren that scarred him into his current life. Her last ever wish was to do something good that had no benefit to herself, with no strings or tricks attached. Just like Tarannis would.

[@BrazarB]

[@emperorholocron8278]

@@BrazarB it might just be wishful thinking but i really think riven knew she was at the end of her life and her reflecting on Tarannis’ selflessness may have encouraged her to do something good for someone that she’d caused so much hurt to. Just one good thing right at the end because why not?

I mentioned this on Evaze's story, but it is quite concerning that the Vex could simulate the Black Heart and its power in the first place. It screams them being able to simulate paracausality, even if they had the Witness' assistance.

[@suruxstrawde8322]

That's definitely gonna be their involvement in the story going forwards. It might even change their base nature.

[@beckhornig7910]

More like they made something on accident when trying to make something else entirely. They can create something of paracausality but not what the even remotely intended. I believe it is cause for concern but they clearly don't understand the paracausal enough to completely make anything they can control.

[@kutlumzrak2689]

Asher Myr did it. Witness helped them twice. With enough time they learned to suppress saints light. Vex can definitely evolve to simulate paracausality at this rate

[@equinoxruinouseffigy7856]

I really appreciated that they changed up the fight by activating more of the minds at once. It caught me off guard when I was running from one and ran into another. D1’s fight is very much one at a time.

[@DarkSiv]

Bungie is setting up The Final Shape PERFECTLY. I will admit, the delay was a great idea.

[@individual7046]

Did anyone notice during the Hydra boss fight that there where Vex Hobgoblins not of Sol Divisive. These where regular Vex encountered anywhere in the system and they where broken spinning around aimless not trying to hit you. Furthermore after you defeat the Hydra and get the objective "destroy remaining hostiles" you can spare these three hobgoblins. If it where just bungie using the wrong assets I would brush this off but because of these two factors mentioned above I think it's a intentional story beat. For some reason the other Vex where in the Black Garden, we don't know their motives but seeing how they where damaged by the Hydra Boss and spinning around this was either a) a intervention by the rest of the Vex to stop the Black Heart Or b) the Sol Divisive waging war on the other Vex

[@voltus20]

Vex from outside Sol consider the Sol Divisive anomalous, and we know from the Avalon exotic mission what they do to anomalous vex (like Asher). Now that i think about it, it is entirely possible that the reason we have never seen combat frame vex is because the Sol Divisive was cutting off the rest of the vex from accesing the system, and after their fall, the whole of the vex true force can finally reach us. It would make for the perfect setup for the next big bad.

[@Chromastellia]

@voltus20 i can see this being mentioned in the next season since its vex themed i believe

[@neilduncan441]

It’s awesome how Riven manipulated a wish out of crow.. to HELP us. She couldn’t do it directly without a wish so she found a way. I really love that twist - almost thank you for saving her clutch.

[@Nina-ld7wz]

If I was a betting man it wouldn't surprise me if "the original plan/framework" was going to intend to have a newly rezzed Crow(former Uldren) be the closest thing we would get to another Speaker. It was perfectly served up at a time when there was the Vanguard/Tower conversation of "were we going to get another Speaker after the Red War, did we even need one ? etc " and to plop the man who killed Cayde in the middle of all that exhibiting Speaker-like qualities would've been some good stuff and cause for actual drama. Problem is I imagine Bungie felt we were way too far from a bulk of the Speaker's involvement in the story, if you didn't play D1 the Speaker kinda doesn't get much context, a little hard to follow, and obviously with Bungie tweaking the story as they went along it was probably easier to not make such a big deal of it when there was time to dedicate elsewhere.

[@northwoods27]

There’s definitely some Ahamkara doings here, but I think the mechanism of Cayde returning will be the darkness’ corruption of the Traveller; given its strong link with memory. In this case, Crow’s memories, specifically. This version having the full memories of Cayde (if he does) could be the result of a guardian’s link with the traveller, and its ‘memories’ if them in some form.

When I went through the vex portal into the black garden where the heart was in destiny 1 I was so excited to feel the rush again that my teammate I was playing with said I missed a rally flag. I was so excited and happy to be back in time :)

[@ruthlesslistener]

The reason why the Black Garden fight was a copy of the og encounter (other than just being an homage, which I appreciated as someone who got into D2 in Beyond Light and doesn't have a console) was because it was a simulation of the original that the Vex were running to try to cause interference, done so with the Witness's help. Which, on one hand, is somewhat of a good sign- it means that they can't yet simulate paracausality without extra help- but is still discomforting. Either way though, it was a tight fight for me as a solo hunter, and I enjoyed it As for Riven's meddling, I personally interpreted her granting the wish as her giving Crow the idea to go through the portal in the first place. Cayde's glowing with light, so I feel like the Traveler is responsible for him coming back, but Riven def. tweaked some strings there, potentially in our favor The cutscene and radio message were the best part of the finale tho imo- it took Cayde under a minute to make the 'Crow =/= Uldren' connection that so many others took years to get over (or never got over it at all), and I'm excited to see them interact- the mini crucible match was already a good start. And it ending with Osiris and Saint musing about being able to finally retire and relax soon and say they loved each other out loud after so many years of having to hide in the shadows touched my heart. It's a good way to end off with a little bit of hope when things are at their most dire

[@Roundbrow]

[@colorfulcredit5373]

Just want to point out the subtle shift in colors here--Originally, when Cayde spoke his mouth flashed orange/ yellow.... Now it's almost pure white, like the cracks running along his gun. Also, in Saint's dream... wasn't he leaking something similar? Something glowing almost like Vex milk, but not?

[@elegy8187]

All exos from the deep stone crypt are made using vex milk that has been exposed to the darkness. Maybe in Cayde’s rebirth he’s had all the darkness inside him replaced with the light?

Bro destiny is the real life version of “here be dragons”

I am SO glad I avoided looking at videos and online until I got a chance to play. As a player since the D1 beta, coming up to that door in the Black Garden was a sureal moment and when it opened and the Black Heart was there I lost it. Such flashbacks to that fight; it was the first time I did anything in Destiny with a non-matchmade fireteam. Did anyone else catch that Cayde KNEW Uldren was dead? I am assuming since Cayde saw a ghost he put two and two together. Also there is no sign of Sundance or another ghost for Cayde. If the Pale Heart is hanging around long term as a location it wouldn't shock me if Cayde is stuck there (for now) kind of like the knight at the end of Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. Those new exotics look interesting; the Warlock one really has my attention.

6:20 I think it would have been more neat if he shot him and killed in and said “owed you one” then helped up once Glint revived him. But this was good too.

The black garden fight had all of the statues fighting you instead of one at a time like in D1..me and my gf had a whale of a time lol (she died twice..i didnt die) but it was a great homage to D1 and felt crowded enough for my abilities to actually mean something

This fight is different because if you are too slow all 3 bosses can be active at once!

"Into the Traveler the hunt continues" was on the "unremarkable" Hunter legs. The Titan arms read, "Every enemy of the Vanguard had a plan until..."

The way Crow fans the hammer on Hawkmoon is so damn good, just watching him go full gun slinger is SICK

I love that we are also shown how Cayde was easily going to win their fight.

One other thing of note during the crow/cayde interaction is cayde acknowledging that he knows Uldren died. This implies that this cayde knows whats been going on in the world AFTER his death.

He saw his ghost and deduced uldren doed because before he was about to pull the trigger

I really want more old Taken King warlock gear. They looked the coolest

[@Purpletrident]

If the Speaker Mask does allow warlocks to hear the Traveler's words, I imagine there's gotta be a way to hear it on other classes, as byf said, like with Nezerac. My guess is Traveler's Chosen

[@bonehawk1562]

I think that Cayde was always in the traveller, therefore Riven completed a double-whamy wish by sending him in there, like you said

[@Bard1285]

Hey Byf, can you do a recap of what happened in Destiny 1 as a montage set to Kansas' "Carry on my Wayward Son" as an intro? I think it would go down a treat!
