Highlights
- Players have been showing off their creativity by recreating iconic characters from various forms of media in Destiny 2’s armor synthesis system.
- For example, one player has turned their Titan into both Woody and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story.
- The ongoing Season of the Wish in Destiny 2 is leading up to The Final Shape expansion, which has been delayed until June 2024. With such a long season ahead, players are keeping busy by sharing their in-game fashion designs.
A Destiny 2 player has managed to turn their Titan into Woody and Buzz Lightyear from Disney’s Toy Story series. This was made possible by Destiny 2’s powerful Transmog system, which lets players use a blend of different armor pieces, ornaments, and shaders to create unique characters.
In the ongoing Destiny 2 Season of the Wish, the Guardians brought back Riven in spirit form with the help of Mara Sov, who agreed to help the Vanguard in their pursuit of The Witness, based on certain conditions. The events of this season will eventually lead to The Final Shape expansion; however, since Bungie has delayed Destiny 2 The Final Shape to June 2024, Season 23 will now run for 6 months. With plenty of time on their hands, fans are looking to up their fashion game in Destiny 2, with one player managing to recreate two iconic Disney characters.
Destiny 2 Undying Guns Have a Major Flaw
Fan-favorite weapons from Season of the Undying are back in Destiny 2 Season of the Wish, but these updated weapons have a glaring flaw.
In a post on the Destiny Fashion subreddit, user QueenBreakersBro shared images of their Titan character, which they turned into Woody and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story. For Woody, the player used the TM-Cogburn Custom Cover helmet obtained from Destiny 2‘s Spire of the Watcher Dungeon, and paired it with Ringwalker Plate chest ornament along with 5 different shaders to complete the look. To recreate Buzz Lightyear, they used the Phenotype Plasticity Plate chest armor that provided the winged appearance, along with the Lost Pacific Helm. As for the shaders, they used the Metropolitian Acoustics for the gauntlets, chest, and legs, resulting in a character that looks similar to the original.
Destiny 2’s armor synthesis has enabled players to recreate several other iconic characters from different forms of media. For instance, one player managed to make their Destiny 2 character look like Megamind, while another turned theirs into Guts from the Berserk anime. The community’s creativity doesn’t stop there, as one fan turned their Hunter into The Mask from the popular 1994 movie. Players have also taken inspiration from other video games, where one Guardian turned their character into Soul of Cinder, Dark Souls 3’s final boss, and another turned their Warlock into Preston Gravey from Fallout 4.
While this might keep players entertained for a while, Bungie has a crisis to deal with considering how Destiny 2’s popularity has plummeted after Lightfall. Bungie’s efforts to keep its independence after being acquired by Sony and a 45% drop in revenue projections were the chief reasons for the recent layoffs at Bungie. However, the situation is worse than it looks, as a report revealed the grim state of employment at Bungie. The report uncovered several other cost-cutting measures that the developer has implemented, creating a soul-crushing environment at the company. Consequently, Bungie has a mammoth task at hand and will need to exceed expectations with The Final Shape DLC to recover from the setbacks.
