The Bungie Documentary From 1991 to Present | Destiny 2: Shadowkeep

[@xMick3yC]

Who else is watching this after the Sony Bungie acquisition? It's insane

Moral of the story Don’t work with activision.

[@usanian83]

They did say that activision was holding them back

[@chromeheartsonme]

@harryrants7943 destiny has had 4 of its worst DLCs since curse of osiris since you made this comment LMFAO.

[@Pure_117]

My most favorite part of bungie's history is there freedom from Activision 😌🤗

[@nuggetstew4380]

This comment sort of aged like milk, they departed from Activision but still run Destiny as if they’re with Activision

this aged like warm milk LMFAO. looks like actvision wasnt the issue with destiny 2 after all.

[@grahamrandazzo7696]

I don't see why people like destiny so much. Bunjie is a shadow of it's former glory from the halo days.

[@Awkwurdd]

@@grahamrandazzo7696 Give it a shot then, it's free after all. Bungie has made an insane amount of progress.

[@grahamrandazzo7696]

@@Awkwurdd Destiny is a weird disjointed game, it doesn't really have a campaign but a few missions that aren't connected together and a bad plot overall because it is largely absent.

I just want to add that the famous E3 Halo 2 demo, was actually a pre-rendered cinematic Their goals proved to be too ambitious, and with the E3 deadline growing ever closer the decision was made to show off what they hoped to deliver at launch rather than what they had already I'm not sure if you cover this later on, I paused right after the E3 part

[@TiddyTwyster]

And I also want to add that you did a great job on this, I'm really enjoying it

[@Halfpintofficial]

@@TiddyTwyster thank you for the kind words. You are correct about the Halo 2 trailer being pre-renderer but unlike Halo ODST, H2 was done with the in game engine and the second one was played live. I should've specified that more.

[@TiddyTwyster]

Nah, you did a great job Halo CE was the first game I ever played and Bungie has been a huge part of my life ever since It felt like looking through an old yearbook, the nostalgia was overpowering

[@Sky_Ler2000]

this is a good video. Makes sense that every detail can't be expressed with the first destiny game but regardless this gives outsiders and those new with Bungie an idea of what this studio went through to please its community

[@PLightstar]

Myth 2, still one of the greatest games ever created, often overlooked but it is always the first game to get installed on any new PC I have.

[@xavierquentinchad5880]

Actually watched this while playing destiny and had to take a break to watch this to the end because it was all so interesting. Great job with this.

[@Hooksnwiffs]

This gave me chills. I’ve grown up with Bungie, the halo franchise was something that got me into gaming with my dad in elementary school. I played destiny 1 RELIGIOUSLY in middle and it got me through some really rough times. And in high school, watching destiny 2 grow and change is mirroring my own change cause. You know..... high school. Bungie has shaped my childhood. And their story is amazing. Thank you, for making this.

[@chirscrocker9006]

This was a phenomenal video, this should be the movie of the week on Bungie’s website if you ask me

[@zachary_smith1]

Yes! Let's make it happen

[@downyfabricsoftener8790]

7:04 BRUH. You mean to tell me Bungie immediately fixed a game breaking patch back then my MANUALLY recalling every copy, but on Destiny it takes several months to fix the smallest line of code whenever something is broken or overpowered in the game

[@volenvolen2990]

If you are talking about the LoW issue bungie has already addressed that. Due to the work around the "Shadowkeep" they don't want to overrun their workers. Rebalancing a weapon is not an easy job. You need to spend hundreds of hours in looking for a way to nerf and not totally obliterate one weapon. For example if they straight nerf the damage output of the LoW it will be almost ussles in pve but yes nerfed in pvp. And after that they have to consider the pve side of things.

[@shippouyes5930]

That was stunning work you did there Halfpint! Thank you so much for putting this together, I was really immersed with your use of dramatic music and pacing to make everything feel meaningful and suspenseful, truly a work of inspiration that I hope will get the recognition it deserves :)

[@Halfpintofficial]

Thank you for your kind words! This means a lot! More to come as well if you decide to stick around!

[@cheeseyszx_424]

So imma just assume this isn't about bungee jumping?

[@exile9024]

you call this a "Documentary"... i'm just surprised they didn't get their birth certificates and finger prints while they were at it...in order to know Bungie you need to really know who these guys are on the microcellular level no?

[@AdrianArmbruster]

I would've given Marathon a more in-depth overview myself. It did a lot of things you see later in Halo and Destiny but in prototypical form.

[@TiddyTwyster]

I think it would be neat If they gave marathon or ONI another shot

[@sunayap.1533]

you're so creative and a very compelling narrator. This was very well put together. Good job man and I hope that sub count skyrockets because it is evident that you've put a lot of effort into this and you DESERVE thosr subs.

[@brandenblomberg3048]

Thank you for making a ViDocumentary on Bungie. Honestly it makes me so happy to see such a big service for my favorite game company. Keep up the good work!

[@ArmorT94]

Absolutely amazing work here, my friend. As a avid Bungie fan since before Halo: CE, being able to watch this and reminisce about the history and struggles of my favorite developer is inspiring. Gonna share this with everyone I know who loves Bungie games. You deserve a ton of recognition for this and I really hope that people at Bungie have been able to watch this and solidify the idea that their hardcore community and fans are caring, patient, and passionate for what they create. Stay rad, mate.

[@muwuny]

[@dirtydan6236]

This video is great, you did an amazing job going through the deep history of bungie. I hate to suggest anything though, since I am not a content creator and know little to nothing about the amount of work and time that goes into great videos like these. But I’d love to see a 3 part series of videos added on to this. Hear me out lol, what if you used this video as a baseline for the 3 part video series, splitting the content from this into 3 and going deeper into each section. For example, take all the history of what bungie did before the halo series and make the first part a long documentary like this, but going into more depth and focusing on just what came before halo and destiny. Then the same with part 2 and 3; the second video diving even deeper into bungies history with halo, and the 3rd part in the series, going even deeper with destiny and bungie. I loved this so much, I just want more, and I know people want more great content like this. I’d pay to watch a 3 part series like that. The video just felt too quick, I wanted to watch for hours and find out so much more about the deeper details and history of bungie, and if I were doing it that’s what I’d do. Please do this lol

[@Aussieglenn89]

Hey mate, I just wanted to say I really enjoyed this video. Keep up the good work.

[@gracecalis5421]

I've been with Bungie since Halo CE. I can't even begin to put into words how much this company means to me; the amount of memories it left. Destiny had a few (understatement) missteps but I loved both entries. I'm hoping if a D3 ever comes, its the Destiny Bungie always wanted to make.

[@leaderltt2506]

I’ll be Honest I enjoyed this Video as I’m an Original Halo Fan. I play Destiny 2 Everyday and I enjoyed the High Note you ended this video on.

[@conflykt]

This was excellent ! Very good job! Some of the clips you included of early Destiny development I've never seen before, very cool!

[@kennethblocher6110]

"Once more upon the breach" 🤦‍♂️ Liked it, it was very in depth, for the format. I was at Bungie studio the day of the Warmind release, it was a stressful day for them. But, the voice of Rasputin tho! Whoever made that choice deserves a raise. One thing I never knew was that Oni was based on GiTS, one my favorite anime series. I was surprised to not see any mention of Marathon Man, the basis for the Halo lore.

[@allison4350]

[@jonathanedwardgibson]

I still have the boxed copy of Minotaur Alex handed me. I met he and Jason when they sold their floppies from a card table. Many great moments playing their many games, but the Magic HAS been gone as MicroSoft juiced-up budgets, pioneers retire, and organizational inertia set in. I hope the new post-Activision era is good, because they can’t seem to make a game my friends want to play for long.

[@jonathanedwardgibson]

Workers control the memes of production. Example of brilliance missing-in-action: once upon a time, you could equip NPC’s with that awesome battle shotgun you found, or sniper, and they’d follow along making each play-through unique. How about a Destiny Ghost that warns you a Captain with a Lord Of Wolves is behind you… since radar-is-a-feeling and limited PoV make for claustrophobic experiences. What about playing as a sympathetic alien, like as a Fallen with the extra limbs holding guns so you always have QuickDraw as an intrinsic, with your Special able to briefly target and fire all four weapons? How about those Space Cats we were pitched before launch: I’d like a companion like I enjoy in Warframe? Time for Bungie to think big and the current crew stop eating lunches paid for by fans hailing work done long ago.
