How Destiny 2’s Seasonal Story Repeats Lightfall’s Biggest Blunder

Destiny 2‘s Lightfall expansion was widely regarded as a disappointing story due to the way every character involved seemed to be familiar with the core mystery of The Veil’s existence, but players were entirely oblivious to it, meaning the overall narrative fell flat. The Lightfall campaign’s case was not helped by the fact that a character like Rohan was not given enough time in the limelight to appreciate his sacrifice and short screen time, all while Calus’ potential as a final campaign boss also felt wasted. The redeeming qualities of Lightfall as a whole started showing with Season of the Deep’s story, including an extremely important cutscene about the origins of The Witness in Destiny 2, but Season of the Witch’s good narrative and premise also fell victim to Lightfall’s biggest issue.
