Remnants Of: Mars | A Journey into the Lost Content of Destiny 1 and 2 | Out Of Bounds

[@AwesomeFox45]

Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather, he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank just outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.

Destiny cut content is really intresting, giving us a glimps on a "what if" scenario if they were to realize their full vision unchained by whims of upper management.

[@quietnumber2317]

I appreciate the history lesson and effort to create a more aesthetically pleasing look at D1's Lost Oasis. As an aside: it's funny that me, yourself, and other players instinctively knew something was up with the Rubicon Wastes door. Before I knew anything about the Lost Oasis, I just assumed it would have been used for the Forge of Gods, if it ever had any work done for it.

[@Solus-yt]

I love this comment, because same here! When I joined Raid secrets back during D1 it was the first question I asked about it. Something like, "What is going to be behind that door"

[@BitrateBilly]

4:14 Looking at this whole map was actually so shocking to me, because looking at it further reveals that its not just the lost oasis chunk of io, but this entire section was used as a baseline for the whole map, the drill from giants scar is to the left, a tiny pyramidion is to the right, even the whole cabal base that looms over the area is seen in the back.

It's pretty cool how the cut Mars content got repurposed with Io. Everything. The lost oasis, the pyramidian, even Charlemagne.

[@Solus-yt]

Yep, and it was nearly unchanged layout. The pyramidion got adjusted slightly, but giants scar was more or less exactly the same

4:05 was the location depicted in the cut "vex storm" DLC. That trailer was reused for season of Undying forever ago. I did always think we were going to get a Land Tank cabal raid one day. Sadly that never happened.

Such a fantastic video, the feeling is definitely mutual!

[@Stray713]

One of the things I wish we could have learned more about is the buried city on mars, you go up a tall building in the flayers strike in D1 and I absolutely loved that, I really wanted to learn more about that whole area. Especially as that was early Clovis stuff before we really learned what Exos were. That small segment of lore and aesthetics was and still is my favourite piece of destiny content ever.

[@Kellestial]

ALSO fun fact, that door 15:14 is not the sole way to get in. In the map files there is a tunnel (WADIs map iirc) that leads to a door in legions keep with a unique cabal logo

This was a great video; the D1 soundtrack, the 21:9 aspect ratio, all of it. You touched on the very thing that still preoccupies me about Destiny, even to this day. What would that other journey have been? What would the "all this is playable space" iteration of Destiny been like-- flyable ships? A real-in-game-time day / night cycle? There were so many ideas floated out at the outset of the project that became Destiny, and I cannot, *cannot* help but wonder where those threads would have led over the course of the last decade. Great video, great vibes. Sub earned.

For me the D1 Music was a mix of Elves Music from LOTR and Halo magic alien otherwordly Music. Thanks man for bringing the memories back

[@yhelloh]

13:40 if you want to extend the mystery further, there are certain bits of lore within destiny 1 gear (usually cloaks) that give hints back to the old story. In the first destiny 1 mars reveal trailer theres a voice at the end that we never find out who is actually talking. It is likely Elsie, which hints at cut content of Elsie and Clovis Bray being a bigger d1 story point, but also sounds like Micah-10. Theres so much mystery in this game and its a shame so much of it gets swept under a rug of sorts.

[@haemmer]

Thank you for this, for reviving this feeling of... Destiny

[@solo_741]

Great video! I do love seeing unused stuff from this franchise, its super interesting, and one of my guilty pleasures (sunken ketch my beloved). Heres a couple other notes i thought about while I was watching: Mars Lost Oasis and IO Lost Oasis, are essantially the same geo wise. For IO they did some set dressing, model replacing, added inside areas for missions and lost sectors, and jumbed around a couple things (pyramidion was moved a bit), but the outside is near 1:1, it barely changed. The biggest change of course, was the pyramidion, which was a huge downgrade tbh. Some of the unused entrance was reused as the drop down for the Brakion arena, and that area with the triangle platfrom still ended up in the D2 pyramidion somewhere in the distance iirc. Either version of the pyramidion might of also been home to the scrapped vex raid they never made. What you didn't show in the video is charlemagne's vault, which does mostly exist, although it is essentialy the same as the vault in the cosmodrome (the one accessed in the forgotten shore).

[@Solus-yt]

Yes!! Warmind Vault JYS! Funnily enough, I forgot that even existed, until I started researching it for this project. And to remember that we went there in vanilla D2 campaign is wild.

[@MRF1983]

Tbh this video kinda filled me with rage, especially watching it after the recent Bungie layoffs. It really drives home just how hard the leadership at Bungie screwed over the franchise.

@@Solus-yt I remember so much hype and then drama around the original story back when D1 came out. Stuff about the dreadnaught and such. I agree though that it’s probably not going to happen, or if it doesn’t not going to be for a long long time. I can see if there’s ever a bad data breach at Bungie a lot of those early cinematics and plans leaking (kind of whats happening with Gamefreak right now and Pokemon) but I wouldn’t wish that to happen to any developer tbh… as much as the leak might be interesting. I do hope that as time goes on the walls come down about that early Destiny story because I’m intrigued to hear and see how much got reused and retooled into future stories including stuff as recent as the final shape. I also know Joe would never talk on it but if he ever wrote a memoire or something and went into detail about his time at Bungie on Halo and Destiny, I would eat that up!

Dude this video is awesome. What other maps are found in the files?

[@Solus-yt]

@@nitothefunkybunch6938 from what I know, just this in d1. D2 however has a ton of unused maps, named “missing string”

@@Solus-yt ah thats a shame, but it would make sense for them to reuse as many old maps as possible for the dlc
