Good reading... (Destiny)
Just saw a post on Reddit that is pretty interesting.
The comments are the real interesting part for me. I've never really thought about Servitors being like Ghosts at all, or as being created in the image of the Traveler, but it makes sense.
I particularly liked this one by SanguineThought:
In the Hive universe (galaxy or whatever) they were the sword and they took out all other queens. They grew in the process by taking over everything not just wholesale destruction. Now the hive sword has the power of an entire universe (or galaxy or dementia or whatever.) Biggest damn sword ever.
The fallen are law, the cabal are sword, the vex are tower. Each on their own are equal to the others. Unfortunatly it is not the vex up against the fallen, it is every race for themselves vs Oryx, the point of the biggest sword ever.
Humanity is the one race that didn't go one path, we went all 3 and work together. This is exemplified by our races and classes. Tower is awoken warlock. Law is human hunter sword is exo titan. We are greater than the sum of our parts, our diversity and cooperation created a force to be feared and respected. We are broken and shattered and we are still greater than all 3 other races. We are the 3 queens working together.
Since the hive (or the darkness really) is the product of a sword rising to the top to become supreme, we can only combat it by raising to its level. Otherwise it will be a pawn vs a queen. Game over we loose. We are a match for the hive, now that we have our new subclasses and we are active on all teresteral planets in our system and we have the help of the reef. We are now equal to the hive (but not the darkness.) To Beat THE darkness we will have to join forces with the fallen, the cabal and the vex. I think this will be destiny 2 and 3. Fallen, under variks, will fold in with humanity as the story progresses. Vex will be incorporated by end of destiny 2. Cabal by end of destiny 3. End game destiny capstone will have 6 races, 6 classes, 12 man fireteams. The ultimate combination of all things sword law and tower.
And in the end we will create a new big bang. Thus proving tat light and life are greater than entropy and the end of all, at least for this round.
