I just want to say thank you all. See before the release of forsaken, my family was falling apart. My parents were fighting and it was to the point that they were trying to get a divorce. They had moved into separate homes and didn't speak to each other whatsoever. However, all that changed when destiny 2 came into the picture. It started when I was visiting my mom and my boyfriend and I were playing destiny. My boyfriend had to go to work so he left his system there. My mom decided she wanted to know why we loved destiny so much. Well she hops on and she's running around mars. Now let me add. She has no idea what the controls are what so ever so it was highly amusing to watch psions launch her and her confusion on how to fight back. Well skip about a week or so ahead. She's buying herself a ps4 and Destiny 2 with forsaken preorder. So that was awesome. Well I started talking to my dad about how mom had gotten the game and was having fun. A couple days later my dad calls and asks if I can come help him with something. I get there and he is setting up a ps4. He's got Destiny and he was wanting me to help him create a character and to show him how to join a Fireteam. I get him all set up and I head home to play. My mom joins me and so does my dad. Now I was worried about how this would play out, but my mom was just so excited to have the chance to teach someone how to play. She dove right into showing him the controls.
Now here we are. Well over a year later, and every day since... I get on Destiny and I see one fireteam. ReddyorNot and PATHFINDER12-18. Awoken hunter and awoken Titan. Every single day. They are in crucible, doing strikes, or even just doing patrols. Every single day They are talking. They are communicating. The best part of it? They're still married. They now live under the same roof once more. All because of this beautiful game you created Bungie.
You saved my family. So thank you. Thank you so very much.
A little info on my mom. Her favorite weapon is the Telesto. Her favorite ship is the new Vex one from the season pass. Her favorite dance is the Beguiling dance. Her favorite sparrow is the one that has the wings from season of the drifter.(i can't remember the name for the life of me)
A little info on my dad. His favorite exotic chest piece is the solar titan one with the fire on the stomach(in a hunter main I don't know titan exotics like that 😂) his favorite ship seems to be the unsecured outcry. His favorite sparrow is the Burnout(one he has yet to actually get sadly) he says it reminds him of Ghost rider. His favorite dance is the Dancehall.
Their least favorite place is the dreaming city. They agree it is beautiful beyond belief, but man. They HATE the scorn. Lol
Bungie. You have created beautiful memories for a family who was once falling apart and I just hope you can see this and know you are appreciated. No matter how much people out you down and dislike the way you handle things. Just know there are the few out there who are in love with Every aspect of the story you are trying to tell. Thank you so much.
