This Week's TWAB At Bungie is tease-a-rific. I mean look at the main image! It's ripe for speculation. But anyway, topics include the new Guardian Games, a lot of Season of the Deep game updates....like...a lot. There's a new shader that will make you look like Goldar from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. There's a lot. I'm still scrolling down. GO READ IT!
Over the past few days, Bungie has been releasing stories leading up to Season of the Hunt. Tales of Osiris and The Crow (so far). cheapLEY has started a thread on the forum with links to each story. Grab a coffee or beverage of choice and enjoy the reading.
P.S. Bleep Bloop.
While we're playing catch-up, we should point out that Ragashingo has been quite busy over the past month and a half or so, focusing primarily on the origins of the Awoken. (The earliest episode we didn't mention here was Episode 36, which focused on The Fallen Houses... but everything since then has been pulled from The Book of Marasenna, which tells the story of Mara Sov, and her origins.) Here are some links to his forum posts, but remember; these are all archived in our Bite-Sized Backstory Archive (here's a direct link to all of the recent posts).
I've had a number of discussions with players about whether Iron Banner Tokens will carry over across the Season boundary next week; the general consensus has been that you should spend them, because they'll disappear when Season 3 begins. This has been bolstered, in part, by the Iron Banner Guide page on Bungie.net:
Players should ensure that they turn in any remaining Iron Banner Tokens before Lord Saladin departs from the Tower Courtyard following the weekly reset.
However, the question was directly asked in a Twitter thread a couple of weeks ago, and the answer, by Bungie's Jeremiah Pieschl, was pretty clear:

Okay, so this dropped yesterday, and it's also included in the Season 3 page referenced earlier today... but it's a great watch, and everyone should see it. Josh Hamrick and Kevin Yanes discuss some of the ways that Exotics are getting deadlier, and what that means for Season 3 Crucible play. Check it out!
Bungie's separated the goodies that ALL players will have access to when Season 3 kicks off on Tuesday from the goodies that those who purchase the Warmind DLC will see that same day. It's a helpful pair of pages!
Not too long ago, I lamented the fact that the DBO Fan Fiction section was somewhat neglected. Ragashingo took this comment pretty seriously, and did two things: he submitted a new story called 'The Red War' for you to read, and he announced a new writing challenge he calls 'No Longer Neglected'. Twice a month he'll issue a writing prompt; submissions will be added to the Fan Fiction Archive here. Winners will receive loot directly from Raga. Sounds like a win all the way around! The first prompt went live this morning - you can find it on our forum. Join in! (While we're talking about Raga's writing, you might want to also swing by the Bite-Sized Backstory section - I've been remiss about mentioning recent entries, and you can find 6 new - well, not-front-paged - entries in the archive!)
The latest Bungie podcast (on iTunes, or direct via Bungie RSS) is live now:
Join Luke Smith, Mark Noseworthy, and Eric Osborne as they sound off on the state of Destiny 2, what it takes to update the game, and where we’re heading next.
48 minutes of conversation from people who build the game this site is devoted to - Go listen! Thanks, CyberKN, for the heads-up.
BBC has a great interview with Jason Jones about what they learned from Destiny and the mistakes made along the way. And sounds like Bungie may even be starting to plan on what to do after they finish making the Destiny series! Thanks for Ragashingo for bringing it to my attention!
Ragashingo has posted another installment of his Bite-sized Backstory series - this one focuses on little-known facts about the Fallen. (Check out the video that bluerunner found for some details you might not have noticed for yourself, these past 3 years...) We've added this latest article to the BSB Archives here at DBO.
Ragashingo is back with a new Bite-sized Backstory installment - this one introduces us to the Fallen. You've fought them for years - now see how much you actually KNOW about them! Go read the newest chapter in our BSB archives:
You can, of course, also leave him feedback on our forum.
Urk has managed to process and post the latest Bungie podcast (on iTunes, or direct via Bungie RSS) before the Destiny 2 Beta begins tomorrow, so you can go listen to Luke Smith, Mark Noseworthy, Eric Osborne, and Robert Engeln discuss everything from carrying your friends to Chipotle meat goals. Great talk - find 45 minutes and listen! Thanks, electricpirate.
It's hard to believe, but we actually recorded another podcast already! We pore over everything we could scrounge up about Destiny 2 from E3 and discuss Destiny lore with guest Ragashingo. Go listen to it in the archive or on YouTube below:
It's been about a month (and a year) since our last episode, but we figured with the big news dump last week we should probably get around to discussing it! Listen to the latest episode of the Starside Lounge below or go listen in the Starside Lounge archive!
Luke Smith, Mark Noseworthy, and Eric Osborne gathered to discuss everything from PBJ fixings to the direction of the Destiny franchise - and you can listen via the latest Bungie Podcast. There's a discussion thread on our forum, as well.
Before the Destiny 2 fun begins, we're bringing the Bungie Podcast back to life to reacquaint you with the team - and their PBJ preferences. https://t.co/ltZpJh7EN8

The pattern we've followed to this point with Ragashingo's Bite-Sized Backstory episodes has been to provide a front-page newspost for every three installments. However, with Number 26, Raga has come to the end of Oryx's story, so we're posting just the two most recent:
These are also both available in our BSB Archive, if you'd rather read them there. While he's finished Oryx's story, he's not done with his series; next up is the Fallen! Keep your eyes peeled.
In reality the teaser is really cool, BUT it is teasing a trailer being released on Thursday at 10AM PDT. Check it out! (Thanks breitzen)
Okay, this... this is just amazing.

(If that background image doesn't ring an immediate bell, you're not playing enough Destiny... but here you go anyway.)
Ragashingo's posted another three installments of his 'Bite-Sized Backstory'; follow along as Oryx punishes one offspring and receives gifts from another, fights with a Vex mind, and discovers a long-sought prize.
We've finally set up a local place to read these; if you're starting from scratch, just visit the Bite-sized Backstory page itself, but if you'd just like to read these latest three, in order, you can do that at this link.
