Can I just... word vomit for a second? Sorry (but thank you)
With Destiny 2's final update coming up, it's bittersweet. I see the community mourning, the same mourning I did after the layoffs. For personal reasons, the game ended that day because every time (and lord did I try so many times) I booted it up, I'd have a panic attack.
I served overseas, was not diagnosed with PTSD. I was diagnosed with PTSD after Bungie and every time I heard that music, that wonderfully godlike music, it would throw me into fight or flight. So I had no choice but to say bye to the game and legit - as corny as this sounds - it took A LONG time to make peace with that because Destiny has always been my comfort game. Game Informer readers that know my work from back then know exactly what I'm talking about.
To watch the community struggle with those same feelings for different reasons, it just reaffirms for me what I've always said: Bungie fans are some of the most magical humans. The community that has been built around such a special game is equally as special. Like all families, there are some ... oddballs. Fights, petty shit. But at the end of the day, it's still a family.
As somebody that is just now jumping back in to celebrate with you all on June 9th, I just want you to know that the game is still up, your memories are yours to cherish, and YOU are what keeps the community alive. Just ask Mass Effect fans lol, the community doesn't need a game to keep it together, that's what brought us all together. But Bungie cooks and I'm excited to see what the studio does under (hopefully) better leadership. I hope you give the devs a chance to experiment with the unknown and create yet another amazing experience for us to enjoy. Remember, Destiny was a new IP at one point. So was Halo. New doesn't mean bad, it means adventure.
I wrote about Destiny long before I joined the studio, I made videos about Destiny, I wrote fan-fic about Destiny, I did VOs for personal Destiny-related projects. Nothing will take those memories and I hope you cherish the memories this studio has helped facilitate forever.
Crying, but in the best way. You didn't just become legend, you fuckin' showed what it means to be a legend and you did it all with the kindest of hearts. Proud to be a part of this community.
A few updates:
1. Emblem art is being updated to include Rise of Iron and Monument of Triumph.
2. For our Korean Guardians, we are also ensuring that you will qualify for the emblem if you began playing during Shadowkeep.
As a reminder, this emblem will be granted to qualifying players in waves. There are a lot of you! If you don't see it during our first wave, please hold until we've issued the second before submitting any missing emblem tickets.
Thank you to all who have been asking Q's. Keep 'em coming.
If we are Guardians of the Light, then you are our Ghosts. You gave us Destiny, a universe to explore. Just as our Guardians would not be here without their Ghosts, we would not be here without you. You gave us our fashion, our destinations, raids and much more. So, thank you! 🫂
To the Destiny 2 community,
Thank you.
As artists, our goal has always been to create worlds filled with wonder, mystery, beauty, and adventure. But what brings those worlds to life is you. You take our designs, our napkin sketches, our "wouldn't it be cool if..." ideas and transform them into something real. Your creativity, your passion, and your love for the game give our work purpose.
We've always believed Destiny could be a place where expression is celebrated, where players can see themselves and each other in the worlds we build, where every Guardian can forge their own legend—and you proved it.
Watching your Guardians grow, embrace new allies, take down bigger and badder bosses, solve mind-bending puzzles, dodge death traps, avoid Taken boopers, and overcome every Raid challenge we throw at you—all while looking incredible—has been a constant reminder of why this universe matters.
You shaped it. You made it matter. You are the light of Destiny.
With Monument of Triumph, we set out to create a series of love letters to Guardians, new and old. We shared a preview last week of armor inspired by early designs from the original Destiny but have also sprinkled some winks and nods throughout the rewards releasing tomorrow. We hope they feel like a small thank you for everything you’ve given us.
From all of us on the Destiny 2 art team, thank you for supporting us, inspiring us, and continuing to bring this world to life in ways we could never have imagined. You give our art meaning.
With gratitude,
The Destiny 2 Art Team
Forgive my tears…this one was tough. Thank you to every Warlock + Guardian who kept this legendary game alive for these past wonderful years. It has been an honor and privilege to have taken this journey with you. See you starside… 💙
