Moreover, this expansion's plot details and lore have left fans confused – so much so that popular Destiny 2 content creators such as Paul Tassi and D2 lore expert My Name is Byf have released videos explaining why the campaign's light-hearted tone undermines the larger story and how many of the essential plot details and events are introduced without much explanation. This has led some players to view the campaign as less serious than it was set up to be, coming off more in line with previous expansions.

Following large conflicts with the Fallen, Hive, Vex, Cabal, and Taken factions, the Guardians have now forged alliances with splinter groups from their opposing armies, and have even embraced some limited powers from the darkness. Much has happened in the universe of Destiny since its debut in 2014. ![]()
