like saying this game rewired my brain isn't enough it has murdered me and i came back wrong about it

no but the grip that destiny 2 has on me is actually fucking insane. like this game lives in my bone marrow. no matter what happens in lightfall tomorrow i know with 100% certainty i am not going to be the same person after it

#AM I INSANE. IS ANYONE ELSE AS UNHINGED ABOUT THIS GAME AS ME #this stupid silly colorful loot shooter is literally just bursting at the seams with love and care and passion #i could write a thesis on the emotional core of destiny 2 i really really WANT TO #the affect this game has had on my life is insane. like in terms of writing and art and creative vision it's absolutely inspired me and #is undeniably the thing that vindicated my dream to be a storyteller and media creator but #also just. man. the LOVE. destiny is a story so fundamentally about love and hope and the fact that i found it in the peak of #a Really Awful Time of my life probably plays into this but. this game is so so special to me. the idea of the ineceradibility of #hope despite the futility of effort; the idea that love of life and love for each other is what gives us not only the strength but #the REASON to keep fighting even in the face of certain doom #how despite being a fps game it is so intently about gentleness and healing and choosing to build and protect #a gentle kingdom ringed in spears #and CHOOSING to be good and DO good and that hope is something worth fighting for even if its not enough to save you #IS SO IMPORTANT #CAN ANYONE HEAR ME. DESTINY IS ABOUT LOVE #this game changed my entire outlook on not just art and media but like. just life itself. this story is truly something so unbelievably #special and its so incredible we get to have it
