Double post but who cares.
So the first raid is out tomorrow, fellas. I really wish someone here *cough*valor*cough* had gotten this game on PS4 so we could raid together. It's annoying because I need friends that play this game on this console - of which I only have 2 (Rose from here and my cousin who sucks) so I'm in a dilemma. :/
In any case, reached level 25 yesterday and have not gotten any more legendaries. I've gotten some legendary engrams but all were decoded to be rare or common items. Worst feeling man.
ANY WAY. In terms of lore, I've been doing some reading online and there are a few things that I have come to believe. The main thing being that The Traveler is not as benevolent as it would make humans think. The idea is that it is giving humans its powers so that it can raise and spread an army that fights for it while convincing them to protect it. It likely has some more sinister motives as the lines for light and darkness are probably far more blurry than The Speaker would have us believe.
Oh and this whole game. It's inspired by Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
Then the traveller in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
'Till the sun is in the sky.
As your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveller in the dark.
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
How I wonder what you are.
You can see the similar themes, not in only in usage of words but also themes of darkness, sparks, light and discovery.
