Bungie’s Own Success With Light vs Darkness Saga May Hinder Destiny 2: Frontiers

It’s been a while since the Light vs Darkness saga came to an end in Destiny 2. Bungie had been telling us this story right since the inception of the game. It contained an epic conflict between the forces of Light and Darkness and took Guardians on a journey showcasing their sacrifices and resilience.

However, Bungie is moving forward. Last year, the studio revealed a partial roadmap revealing several changes and Frontiers saga. While we still don’t know what the studio has in store, gamers believe that whatever ends up coming, it would be a disaster, considering what Bungie did during Light vs Darkness.

Destiny 2 gamers have lost trust in Bungie’s capabilities

Over on Destiny 2‘s official subreddit, one gamer has compared Destiny 2’s sagas to Marvel’s Infinity Saga. What separates them is the fact that fans can watch Marvel movies all the time, but that’s not the case with Destiny 2, as its content is removed, and that creates a gap in the story.

Even though Bungie plans to expand Destiny 2, it might end up running into the same issues as it did with Beyond Light due to more content being vaulted. If the game really wants to survive as on the live-service model, removing story content is a wrong move.

Bungie managed to elevate Destiny 2 with Light vs Darkness Saga, as it brought an epic-scale cosmic conflict that involved a number of galaxies and generations. The studio did an incredible job with Guardian stories and bringing mysterious enemies.

However, gamers are worried about what’s going to happen with the next saga considering the fact that Bungie vaulted several key content over time. Expansions like Forsaken and seasonal content were completely axed out of the title.

If Bungie really wants to consider bringing new sagas and expansions to Destiny 2, the studio needs to start thinking about the technical limitations of the game. Locking old content, which is valuable to the storyline, makes it a horrendous experience for new players and pushes them away.

Is Destiny 3 happening anytime soon?

With Destiny 2 reaching its technical limitations, one might wonder if Bungie is working on a successor, considering it one of the biggest properties for the studio. However, that doesn’t look to be happening.

Last year, Bungie was hit hard with massive layoffs. Following these job cuts, rumors started floating around that the move had also led to the cancellation of Destiny 2 successor, dubbed as projected “Payback.”

However, as reported by

, industry insider Jason Schreier reported that Destiny 3 wasn’t the project that was axed because it was never in development to begin with. According to him, Payback was a spin-off that was supposed to take place in the Destiny universe and not a sequel of any kind.

It seems like gamers will have to wait longer for Destiny 3. Let’s hope Bungie can figure out how to keep pouring new content into Destiny 2 to keep the game fresh without vaulting its expansions.

With that said, do you believe Destiny 2 needs to unvault old expansions? Let us know in the comments below.
