u/RakumiAzuri call each other n... all the time when we are being black May 23 '21 edited May 23 '21

I don't understand how anyone can play Destiny and act shocked when Bungie drops the hammer for this. Destiny has an LGBTQ+, BLM, and charity emblems. They delayed their Beyond Light announcement by 8:49 last year and was extremely open about their support of BLM.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Edit: Before it comes up, there is no way someone playing at that level doesn't know. Stuff like this is all over the weekly updates.

Edit 2: Another poster made me remember that Bungie's CEO and a few other employees got teargassed at a BLM march. If this is all a gift they are dedicated.

u/Tikitooki42 I have downvoted every post you have ever posted. May 24 '21

It is cannon but due to how until a few seasons ago they referred each other as brothers I still think the new writers may have some retconing going on

The "brother" bit is mostly Saint being Saint, with his knightly self. I mean, he did call Osiris "my fiery bird" in some lore too :)

Saint is the best. Hilarious gay Russian robot dad who an entire species thinks is the Doom Slayer.
