Might as well sign that one petition, and sign in on June 9th: https://www.change.org/p/petition-sony-to-develop-destiny-3 Destiny 2's final update has been the cause of a wave of what can only be described as grief for its community. This shouldn't be a surprise given that this was a 3rd space that people relied upon to feel like they belonged. It was a universe that mattered deeply to so many of its players and it deserved better. Today I wanted to talk a little more having processed my own thoughts on the loss of Destiny 2 and what it means for the community to lose its proverbial town square.

Gonna miss destiny and the destiny universe so much. Thanks for everything byf. You are amazing at story telling
Whenever there was lore in Destiny that I wanted to dive into or better understand, I knew I could always come to your channel and learn how it fit together. I know those videos took immense work and I appreciate your dedication to crafting them for all these years. Thank you for being a level headed voice whose channel in its own way felt like home even as the general community sentiment soured. Your love for the game and its story always shone through even when times were tough, and you won't be alone in missing Destiny and everything it could have been. As someone who has written no small amount about their Guardian and Ghost, I would LOVE to hear about your Guardian and Ghost, and I look forward to whatever content you see fit to create next. See you starside, Byf.
It has been an amazing journey, and your content has been wonderful for learning more about the amazing world of Destiny. You have done so much for this IP and the community. Thank you for all you have done. This community will always hold a special place in my heart, and the memories I made will remain forever.
1:57 sorry i am not a sportsball enjoyer, neither have i an industrialized imaginary friend, nor am i alcoholic
Using deep stone lullaby in the background made this hit even harder than it already had. It is so incredibly devastating. I am just inexplicably furious at management and leadership when it come to this game that has brought me so much joy. Yet I fear management and leadership wont be reprimanded or held accountable and that is what truly saddens me.
10:39 What is the track that plays here?
I can still vividly remember the OG trailer on the moon. It almost feels like a different lifetime.. Destiny came out a few months before my dad passed, and in the past 12 years I’ve been to hell and back, at least a few times. hell I’m sure most of us have.. And despite several multiyear gaps - Destiny was always a place I felt tethered to. Almost like it had its own gravitational pull. I always came back to Destiny, and it always felt like home.. It’s hard to express how much this game and its community has meant to us. It is with a heavy heart that we must say goodbye ❤
Much love. What you’ve done for this community is immense. As long as you make videos of this beautiful world I’ll be here to watch them.
DUDE PLEASE TELL US YOUR PERSONAL LORE TOO! YES! Lowkey I would pay good money to have Byf read the lore books my friends and I have made for our own stuff.
Still remember playing D1 from launch the years of experiences with friends the good and the bad I think what makes the death of Destiny always sad is there isn't a game quite like it
The unfinished stories are by far the most painful thing. So much potential that will never be fully fleshed out. At least warframe isn't going anywhere, plus it has plenty of lore that I hope you cover. The videos you did years ago were good and I wish you did more
His name is byf And he is the best destiny lore youtuber we couldve asked for ❤
Masterful as always. Thank you Byf. For years of silent camaraderie and companionship.
For the lore community, this loss has generated thousands of new Speakers, to tell the myth of Destiny.
To accept defeat is to let the darkness win, to prolong this war is to continue our own destiny
BYF NO dont change your outro. Its all we have left man.
I don't know what YouTube videos I'll be watching one, two or three years after the June update. But I do know that for as long as you're making Destiny lore videos, I'll be watching them :)
I'm not emotionally prepared to watch your video specifically yet, Byf, but just know you have been an absolute pillar of the community and your videos have always been a highlight and joy to watch. Thank you, so much, for everything you have done. See you starside, Lore Dad. ❤
Goosebumps at the ending there Byf! Bravo.
12:52 I just wish I could get confirmation that the new taken king was toland. The idea of him regaining a body through the deep and ascendant realms wouldve been so sick
