Episode: Heresy – A Glorious Disaster – And a Warning for Edge of Fate 🔥 Let me start by saying: I love Destiny. I’ve played through the highs and lows, from the Taken King glory days to the darkest depths of Season of the Worthy. But Episode: Heresy? This isn’t just a misstep. This is Bungie lighting their own story bible on fire and dancing around the ashes while Psions slap us in the face. And don’t get me started on The Nether, or I’ll need to file a trauma report with the Vanguard. Let’s break it down. 🧠 Plot? What Plot? Savathûn just comes back—no explanation, no buildup, no emotional weight. She was literally the linchpin of the Light vs Darkness saga. Her death was poetic, powerful. Now she’s back like it’s a Saturday morning cartoon. Bungie throws around terms like “Lucid Truth” and “Time Loops” to hand-wave inconsistencies. Instead of weaving intrigue, it’s just vague "narrative mystery" used as duct tape on a collapsing plotline. 👎 The Nether – AKA, the Pain Dimension Let’s talk about the biggest disaster since the Red War: The Nether. It’s visually interesting, sure. But beneath the foggy filter and weird architecture, it’s just recycled Hive hellscapes with every annoying modifier possible stacked on top. Enemies are tanky, ammo disappears between phases, objectives feel like pulling teeth, and half the time you’re being punished for simply existing. It’s not mysterious, it’s not challenging—it’s just bad design made to feel “deep” by being vague. And the worst sin? It’s not rewarding. You suffer through layers of Nether nonsense for a chance at a mediocre roll on a mediocre weapon. It’s like Bungie made a dungeon that hates you—and then didn’t even drop loot at the end. 🤡 The Writing Team: Are Y’all Okay? As The Boys’ brilliant quote puts it: “Is your idiot brain getting -blam!- by stupid? That’s not rhetorical, I want an answer.” No more "bold narrative choices." No more gaslighting players into thinking "confusion = intrigue." We’ve seen behind the curtain. This is just lazy storytelling disguised as mystery. ⚠️ Looking Ahead – Edge of Fate Concerns Let’s be real: Episode 2 is Bungie’s last chance to prove they haven’t completely lost the plot. But here's what we’re afraid of: Zavala’s arc will be butchered – He deserves closure, not cheap drama. Crow will be fast-tracked to savior status – Despite zero buildup. Keitel will be wasted again – Reduced to comic relief or muscle. The Nether isn’t going away – It'll leak into future episodes and ruin more of the narrative. If "Edge of Fate" continues this trend of half-baked storytelling and padded-out grind with no payoff, Bungie will officially have turned Destiny into a parody of itself. 🪓 Final Verdict Episode: Heresy is a mess. A beautiful mess, sure—but no less a slap in the face to players who care about this universe. We don’t hate Destiny—we hate watching it be handled with less care than a Scorn sticking its tongue in a fusion core. Fix it, Bungie. We’re not asking for miracles. We’re asking for respect. Coherence. And a story that doesn’t treat us like we failed an IQ check. Because if Edge of Fate is just more Nether-tier nonsense? The tomatoes are coming.
