Unlike the raid, which was brutally hard under &apos;contest mode&apos; conditions where players must fight with their power far below the recommended encounter level, Excision isn&apos;t a skill test so much as a glorious piece of fan service that enables everyone to experience the drop of a narrative beat 10 years in the making.<\/p>\n<p>My heart is mostly black and inert, but I admit I felt a rush of emotion as those final few cut scenes played out, which included a pitch-perfect resolution for the returning Cayde-6&apos;s storyline.

But to that end, I think the studio really has done all it can to make the case for more Destiny being a good thing. The Final Shape has been very good.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We&apos;ll have a full review next week, but I don&apos;t think I&apos;m stepping on any toes here to say that, despite the backdrop of painful layoffs and large delays, Bungie has stuck the landing with The Final Shape in a way that barely seemed possible during the darkest moments of last year. Hell, even <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/DestinyTheGame\/comments\/1db24pn\/the_final_campaign_mission_was_perfect\/\"><u>Reddit is happy<\/u><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, just the fact that the big climactic battle against The Witness wasn&apos;t a letdown after <em>an entire decade of foreshadowing <\/em>is an incredible thing. A huge shout-out must go to the entire art department for creating such a stunning-looking boss. The first time I saw The Witness\u2014massive, smoky, and with more roaming hands than a &apos;70s comedian\u2014was genuinely breathtaking. Destiny gets memed on a lot as a franchise, sometimes not without justification, but anyone who loves shooters really should put respect on its name. There&apos;s still no game remotely like Destiny, and when Bungie really rolls up its sleeves the results are genre-defining. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As you can tell I&apos;m a little excited right now, and community sentiment is as high as I can recall it. Clearly hoping to capitalize on those vibes, after congratulating the raid race winners, Bungie also announced that on Monday it will host a live stream detailing what&apos;s to come over the next year in Destiny 2.<\/p>\n<div class=\"see-more see-more--clipped\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet hawk-ignore\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">It all begins with a single step.Join us on June 10 at 8AM PT to learn about the next year of Destiny 2.\ud83c\udfa6 https:\/\/t.co\/st5fsMFHyA pic.twitter.com\/MIx8JQOnJi<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DestinyTheGame\/status\/1799426502766796903\">June 8, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"see-more__filter\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"see-more__button-container\"><span class=\"see-more__button\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-label=\"See more\">See more<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>I think a lot of people will assume that might mean a bigger announcement about the game&apos;s future, and possibly even hints of a full sequel, but my gut says this will just be a showcase for the forthcoming three episodes, starting with Echoes which launches at reset on Tuesday. We shall see though\u2014I wouldn&apos;t rule out some surprises.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, congrats to team Parabellum on their win. Their world&apos;s first completion of the Salvation&apos;s Edge raid surpassed the 18 hours taken to beat The Last Wish back in 2018. It was a fittingly epic and grueling climax that saw the best players in the game banging their heads against inscrutable puzzles and brutal combat encounters. Or indeed did not see, because many of the top teams chose to obscure crucial info on their screens (eg buffs), some going so far as to go off camera entirely once the race was in the final stretches.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That caused quite a lot of resentment among viewers who wanted to tune in for what felt like the game&apos;s equivalent of the Superbowl, with several of the main streams hosting 100k+ viewers and the game easily becoming #1 on Twitch during the race. To that I can only say if you set something up to be competitive, then it&apos;s only natural that people are going to want to compete. I&apos;ll be diving in tomorrow night once contest mode ends and praying for a much easier ride.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The last word goes to winning team member tyraxe, a 20 year-old Australian who <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tyraxee\/status\/1799412017792720907\"><u>wrote on X<\/u><\/a>: &#8220;IM THE FUCKING BEST I PLAYED SO GOOD.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2018px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.24%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"NpmtitDNYf84iKQTzw9Rr\" name=\"witness4.jpg\" alt=\"Excision\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/destinys-decade-long-saga-is-over-after-worlds-first-raid-team-takes-19-hours-to-down-the-final-boss-unlocking-a-wild-12-person-climax-for-everyone-to-play-2.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"2018\" height=\"1135\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"caption-text\">A wild party after a long 10-year battle involves <check notes> lighting some lanterns. <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Bungie)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/fps\/destinys-decade-long-saga-is-over-after-worlds-first-raid-team-takes-19-hours-to-down-final-boss-unlocking-a-wild-12-person-climax-for-everyone-to-play\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new 12-player mission is the kind of epic battle featuring the whole cast that fans have wanted for so long.
