Hello and welcome Guardians! for those who still recognize my name it's been a while, for everyone else, HELLO! i'm AnonPig, i do the lore things.
But today I'm here to ask you that very simple question, there are three Factions in Destiny and they all have their own philosophical stance on how to do things in the Destiny Universe, i align with Dead Orbit myself because i feel it's the most logical answer. Holding on to our planets and our lost Golden Age is a mistake, we can find a better life out there among a different star.
so what does your Faction mean to you? (answers may be read on the corresponding Faction episode of my podcast the Destiny Lore Cast, go check out our episode with Baxter from https://www.ishtar-collective.net linked above!)

It's a button click, a tool to use for weapons and gear. When Bungie invests more into the Factions than we do or add repurcussions for our choices, it won't mean much. See: WOW Hoarde vs Alliance for example...
-
The same as every other faction. Literally -blam!-ing nothing
-
What does my faction mean to me? Absolutely nothing, it's just a video game, nothing more.
-
I go with who has the best stuff.

The consensus is full of factions with evil desires, with future war cult always fighting, dead orbit trying to leave the god that gave us life, and new monarchy wanting all power. The Concordat is the only good hearted faction.
-
New Monarchy aligns with me. How could we expand to other stars when the fight here at home is not concluded? Why focus on building weapons when we could focus on bringing people together under a new world order? An order of peace and prosperity for humans?
-
I stick to the Future War Cult because I think the Darkness needs to be eradicated. However, I don't support setting up a monarchy like New Monarchy. I also see Dead Orbit as kind of treasonous. I mean, if we leave Earth, we leave the very Traveler that created us guardians, and chose us to protect itself and use to fight the Darkness.
-
Dead orbit to me is a fighting cause to get over the dreaded past. We've lost too much here and at this rate we'll lose everything if we just stand here and take it.
-
shaders and gear (Dead Orbit)
-
Back in year 1, new monarchy had the best weapons. Not sure if they still do, but they gave me a nice cloak so...
-
Nothing
-
My faction means guns. I pick the one with the gear I want. Thus far, the faction stories, while interesting, have had no effect on game play. Until they have some effect more than what gear you get, what do the politics matter?
-
Extra loot for doing stuff.
-
Motes of light and strange coins sometimes weapons but mostly just motes and strange coins.

Edited by SpiritPriest21: 1/13/2017 4:29:40 PMAs an avid lore buff myself FWC is my faction. My reasonings are simple. While I respect both the other factions I hold dispute with their ideals. New monarchy has many wonderful and honorable ideas but promoting a single person to king and giving them unlimited power as well as being unable to remove them from their station is just a bad idea. And one that i can not support. Dead Orbit is correct in some ways as well in stating that running might be the best option. As much as we push against the darkness more enemies show up every day. We could lose. But I cant accept that. FWC claimes in the end there will be a final war against Time itself. I wont stop fighting until we win or my body finally gives out and I recieve my final death protecting my friends and the citizens of the Last City.
-
I have the chance of getting a good weapon (even though it never happens;_;)
-
It don't mean shit, fool.
-
If the other two factions had a kick ass Comitatus look alike ship in their collection, they would matter to me.
-
An exotic class item that doesn't work.
-
Absolutely nothing. Only have one of each faction per character for the loot.
-
Another part of the game ಠ^ಠ
-
Factions to me is just another part of the game :/
-
Cool shit I'll never use
-
Shader color
-
The bugged ship Comatius And how its been bugged for 4 freakin years!!!!!
-
I align my thinking to the Dead Orbit's philosophy
