We've seen some questions about the Old Lights emblem and the Elemental Qi emote, and we want to clarify how we are determining eligibility.
Did your Bungie ID and your accounts — across all platforms that you have linked to it between September 6, 2017 - June 8, 2026 — login and play Destiny 2 at least once during ALL of these time periods?
⚪ Destiny 2 Launch: September 6, 2017 - September 3, 2018
🪦 Forsaken: September 4, 2018 - September 30, 2019
🌕 Shadowkeep: October 1, 2019 - November 9, 2020
🧊 Beyond Light: November 10, 2020 - February 21, 2022
👑 Witch Queen: February 22, 2022 - February 27, 2023
❇️ Lightfall: February 28, 2023 - June 3, 2024
🔺 The Final Shape: June 4, 2024 - July 14, 2025
👁️ The Year of Prophecy: July 15, 2025 - June 8, 2026
If you can answer yes to ALL of these time periods, then you will receive the Old Lights emblem and the Elemental Qi emote during the Monument of Triumph launch window.
@TheBoiofBois@JustDominicXD@thistlefangirl7 According to what Bungie tweeted yes. As long as you played between Sept 2017 to Sept 2018, it should count as you playing the Red War. I started in CoO. So we shall find out.
@dylan_sotelo17@MuItimach@EpicNNG EoF wasnt that good. Story wise - when it started to pick up and get my interest the campaign was done lol, and lets not get started on the portal.
The only thing that was somewhat fun was doing the mythic content.
@BlazingMuffinz Llamas discord pointed it out lol. I wish it was strand, but im hoping some other hand cannons are strand.
Massive W on turning it back to a Lightweight
@gnarwhal19@SirDimetrious Yeah nah SirD is 100% right. Arc’s extract has always been an experience filled with a wide variety of emotions. Marathon is just… the complete opposite lmao.
@MuItimach This is one of the bitter pills to swallow.
Marathon is an unfortunate victim. Created for Pete to inflate what Bungie is doing and get more money into his pockets.
@MuItimach You had some banger tweets i cant lie. I even matched you in trials somehow. I think you were playing with someone from OCE that time, but yeah.
@LorienEllen Destiny really gave me some of my closest friends.
I still remember when you visited Australia, one of the more surreal things that i think has happened in my life. The game had a special connection to me that I will never forget.
@SirDimetrious The community back then was really special. Its how Destiny is Bestiny got given too haha.
I think the feeling of the game coming to an end was there for a while. Most of us just wish it wasn’t true. Doesn’t help that the corporate greed always got the final say
@RebelSixShot@MarathonGG_ This decision of making starting multiple projects and taking resources away from Destiny is what essentially caused the long term down fall of the game. At least IMO.
So its not Marathon entirely, they are an unfortunate victim of a greedy executive team.
@RebelSixShot@MarathonGG_ You’re right, but not on the mark exactly. We’ve had plenty of reports before about how greedy the execs are.
Pete made Marathon and a bunch of other shelved projects to make it look like Bungie they were the next big thing again. Just so he can walk away with more money
