The year of Destiny 2 The Witch Queen, Year 5, has arguably been the best in the history of the Destiny franchise. Some great gameplay changes and additions, exciting new activities, and seasonal stories that saw Guardians help allies with haunting therapy, piratically plunder relics, and teach an AI super weapon what it is to have a purpose. However, the imminent launch of Destiny 2 Lightfall heralds the arrival of the Destiny Content Vault once again, coming to cast some of the game’s best stories into the void.
While the Beyond Light and Witch Queen expansions both had their own rounds of significant content vaulting, this relatively small batch for Lightfall feels like it stings the most. Destiny’s lore and story has (rightfully) been criticised over the years, but this year has seen some of its best stories – and it’s a huge loss that so much is leaving the game.
