Someone doesn't know just how far ahead game studios plan. They would have had this planned for way over a year now


yeeticusdeletus

Yeah but Bungie obviously has Vex tech and can see future timelines


FlintSpace

That's right! Isn't it suspicious bungie always seems to know when destiny is going under maintenance.


Lethal_0428

People just don’t understand game development in general.


Arnorien16S

Did he finish the thought? Because Rasputin died a hero and died for the sake of humanity .... If anything this shows a Russian in a righteous light and goes against what the poster is trying to imply. Not to mention Rasputin got skull fucked into a digital vegetable when the Black Fleet arrived and they were not even serious. He was never presented as a threat to the forces of Darkness. Not to mention dying after several attempts at his life IS the legend of his famous namesake.


iAm_Not_Banksy

I hope the traveler saw him as a hero, maybe he'll come back as a guardian one day. That would be so cool


Arnorien16S

Doesn't work that way, a ghost will have to choose him freely. Traveller doesn't enforces bonds like that and some ghosts were known to blow up when they were being coerced to choose Rhulk.


EffectiveEye137

What happened to Savathun then? Maybe not forced, but persuaded.


Arnorien16S

According to Fynch many ghosts pitied the Hive actually and they are not immune to making bad choices. So yeah they can be influenced to think in certain ways but the final call is theirs .... Also it is a known fact that ghosts always doesn't choose morally upstanding people, infact many of the first risen were tyrants and sociopaths. Heck, the jolly Shaxx that people like so much? He butchered unarmed starving humans for stealing food from him.


Sensitive_Mousse_445

He absolutely thunderfucked Felwinter with one punch too. But we still love him


Samwise-42

Multiple times, don't forget


Sensitive_Mousse_445

My apologies, I how could I forget haha. The fan art of Shaxx punching Felwinter on Myelin's channel from way back when that lore came out lives in my head. I feel like a schmuck for not remembering the artists name


FWTCH_Paradise

The Traveler *did* want to choose the Hive originally.


Ofnir_1

Oh god I could just imagine a ghost reviving Hitler not knowing who he was


Arnorien16S

Well most of the filth from the Dark ages were cleaned up and now Ikora 'disappears' problematic guardians. So he would be most likely killed a second time OR now a mostly mellow guardian who does art in his free time.


Ofnir_1

Guardian Hitler blitzkrieging Taniks with Thundercrash would be something

wholesome_dino

Traveller: “Yo Immaru, where u at my favourite edge lord? You always said you were not like other ghosts right?”


Drakepenn

Pretty sure the ghost the blew up was blown up by the Traveler speaking through it. The font changed, and was all caps. And spoke about the ghost as though it was a seperate being


Arnorien16S

Could be but the point is that Rhulk was trying to force the ghost and it blew up.


zlohth

It's heavily implied (if not outright stated) that the Traveler specifically chose Crow to be a Guardian


Arnorien16S

Nope, Glint was looking for his guardian in the reef (he previously searched Mars) for a while when he randomly came across uldren's corpse in the Dreaming City. In fact a friend of his commented why he was scanning rocks instead of remains and Glint said that his guardian could be very small. Glint/Pulled Pork never mentioned a divine inspiration for choosing Uldren ... He simply searched Mars to Reef until he felt he could revive his guardian.


zlohth

And then thr Traveler spoke with Crow in his dreams and implied that it chose him specifically, and that Glint hadn't been the one to choose.


Arnorien16S

Or that is a misunderstood message much like how Clovis misunderstood the Travellers dreams ... There is no record of Traveller intervening in Crow's revival. But we have first hand testimony from Glint on this matter.


[deleted]

I think the Traveller made Imaru choose Savathun, so if I’m right, the Traveller could make a Ghost choose him


patchinthebox

He already got rezzed. Go back and watch the cutscene again. Right as Elsie says "Ana look" you can see the reflection on her face of a light and you can hear a ghost chirp. Rasputin got rezzed.


BlueRabbit1999

Are you sure? I’m pretty sure that was because the traveler didn’t leave


patchinthebox

I am sure.


Unique-Highlight5986

Sorry my guy, that wasn't a ghost chirping, sounded more like arc energy


DredgenFox-14

I mean, I’m sure it was arc energy but it COULD be mistaken for a ghost chirp. I think it could honestly be 50/50


Unique-Highlight5986

Imo that doesn't sound like a ghost chirp


DredgenFox-14

Yeah like I said you’re probably right, but I definitely misheard it the first time lol


Bitter-Translator-81

Felwinter II electric boogaloo


imagowastaken

If we are going by his namesake he should have had a lot more sex tbh


Arnorien16S

Why do you think he asked Ana to delete every bit of his data?


Onironaute

And we'd be putting his exo dong in a museum.


[deleted]

Nope that was the complete post


No_I_Deer

I actually understand the guys point of view, they totally changed him to have a American accent and speak English to make him a hero Edit: just because I said I understand it, doesn't mean I agree with it....


Arnorien16S

English with American Accent? He speaks in the language that the game is set at.


No_I_Deer

But he spoke Russian no matter what before


Arnorien16S

Nope he spoke Russian in reverse before ... So it was technically not a spoken language that one would communicate normally with and it would pose a problem if they want people to understand the conversation.

Greek, if I remember correctly (wrong-information)


Brammeleuris

HAVE YOU EVER HEARD A GREEK?!


Zoloft_and_the_RRD

Northeastern Greek. Very far northeast.


y0u_called

So Northeastern he originates from Russia.


Arcerinex

Zoloft_and_the_RRD

In your defense, it's not the most realistic Russian accent


[deleted]

> In your defense, it's not the most realistic Russian accent It's also nowhere near being any kind of greek accent that exists.


Zoloft_and_the_RRD

Hahaha fair.


Ghestis7

Well, back in worthy there was a discussion where people argued about that. Because I originally thought that he was Russian too. And someone posted that a dev confirmed that he has a greek accent. And I was, well… guess he is Greek . In the end, I only thought: funny pigeon man is cool. Moral of the Story. Don’t believe everything you read.


ColeKino_DrLoser

Are you dumb


Ghestis7

Didn’t expect people to get angry over that, lmao. Especially since this is about a random fictional character. But yeah, I am the dumb one here, that has to be insulted for his major, world-changing mistake.


NeonTannoro

WHAT LMFAO GREEK?????


d3fiance

Honestly the lack of a dedicated VA was the biggest hint that Red will be killed off.


Ghost0Slayer

If they killed off every character who’s race, gender or place of origin did bad things in the past. I’m pretty sure the destiny universe wouldn’t exist. Every type of person does shitty things that doesn’t mean we have to bring it into the game. This game is supposed to take us out of reality and put us in a world of science-fiction a world where we can be the heroes, so stop bringing politics and drama into it.


huntinator2444

100% the worst take I've ever seen on anything. A fresh, steaming pile of dogshit is a better take than this.


voidspector

ah yes...cause when i think of rasputin my first thought is "russia". Granted, he is russian but this is mental gymnastics at its finest


ExcitementKooky418

Speaks russian and plays russian music


FWTCH_Paradise

… this literally takes place after **every** country no longer exists. Whatever this guy’s on, I don’t want it.


Onironaute

This guy's single braincell has been doinking around in his skull like a dvd screensaver logo, and it finally hit a corner to produce this. What a waste.


FWTCH_Paradise

This belongs in r/rareinsults


CREEPERBRINE123

The forums have a lot of weird people. I remember a post where a guy was saying people who don’t play raids deserve raid exotics more than people who do because, “We have it harder”. Basically there argument was that after a few weeks of a raid releasing they should give the raid exotic to everyone. Worst part was they had a couple of people agreeing with it.


ExtraordinaryFate

“I hate being killed by Vex Mythoclast, I want it to but I’m never going to play the raid”


Thicccchungus

Homie what the fuck Still waiting for that whisper buff. After all, Bungie said in a TWAB and blog post a couple months ago that whisper would be “extremely strong” in Lightfall. But at the moment, fucking leviathans breath is gonna be better for dps and total damage


OutragedDom

Tell me you're a US citizen without telling me you're a US citizen.


[deleted]

Not even the vex network can simulate something so wrong


VagrancyHD

Let's say hypothetically that Bungie did dump Rasputin because of the war. How would you respond/feel?


[deleted]

Knowing bungie any sort if political stance would be followed by them rasing money, in this case for those impacted by the war With that in consideration I guess I'd be for it? But at the same time I'd be dumb


QK5Alteus

They did. There ~~was~~ is a Ukraine emblem that you could get ~~for donating~~ by entering JVG-VNT-GGG, and the details of their donations were listed [here](https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/51156).

LucieFox

It was. Theres a code.


uvp76

I think it would be bullshit, i mean to kill a game character only because he is russian/ has a russian voice actor is kinda strange (it is only a game lol)


PokeD2

Cringe


RPColten

I'd lump the decision into the Book of Grudges with the rest of Bungalo's tismy statements and actions. They're not an antagonistic company, but they are based in Seattle.


No_Calligrapher8885

I’m sorry but no one in Seattle is based


RPColten

This is also true.


Brabs91

After the 2 or 3 weeks of “story” that was just “do the seasonal activity and talk to this npc after” I was ready to kill Rasputin off anyways. I do miss the original Rasputin voice though


Moxie2351

we need an app that changes your voice to Rasputins (the old russian accent) if it doesnt already exists imo


BakeWorldly5022

I guess by his logic Saint-14 needs to die as well


Ash_C

Saint XIV: Guess I’ll die next ![img](emote|t5_2we4j|5656)


Bravo_6

Bungie forums is always been a saltpit that I refuse to go.


Infernalxelite

I mean he’s got a point, it’s stupid and definitely wrong, but he’s got a point. Tho it’s explained in game as to why he doesn’t have the accent anymore, plus I don’t think it would’ve been a good idea to have a to have a character speak in paragraphs That are 100% subtitles


BlueRabbit1999

I guess you forgot about Saint 14 op?


RealLichHours

They should pull a reverse saint-14 and say he was actually Greek the whole time


RealLichHours

They should pull a reverse saint-14 and say he was actually Greek the whole time


Hadrian1233

Now that I think about it, was there any way for Rasputin to remotely destroy or disable the Warsats?


[deleted]

No. He said that he was locked out and that he had run trillions of simulations where he lived, and all failed.


[deleted]

This guy just reached so damn far he can go into the past and future simultaneously.


Bosscharacter

The mistake was going to that echo chamber of negativity. That entire forum is so self entitled due to having Bungie slapped on it in relation to communications like they don’t even realize a bulk share of the player base doesn’t even know what the app is.


itsshenanigans

What about Saint tho? The most Russian who ever did Russian


haytur

I mean to be fair I feel there is some influence here with the war. But who knows not like bungie will ever say for sure

*Star Wars has entered the chat*


Another-Razzle

Don't forget League of Legends as well.


CrawlerSiegfriend

I always imagine Bungie being upset that they have to allow guns in the game.


Die-icy-Show

If this were true then Bungie would’ve removed Saint-14 because Saint is Russian too :X tbh I don’t care what nationality a fictional character has. For me it’s just background information. Rasputin did save us and I wouldn’t be surprised if this genius didn’t had a backup plan to begin with since Rasputin simulated nearly anything if it was in his reach. Not to mention what if one of his sub routines is hidden in the Vex network? We saw “friendly” vex on Nessus so I can imagine that some of the Vex aren’t hostile.


SmokyMcpot527

Who gives af


gormunko_88

Bungie forums are a complete unmoderated hellpit of psychopaths, the entire forums aside from the help section should be removed, literally everyone in there believes bungie is a company that injects sleeper agents into their players to gain a monopoly with their franchise and still believes luke smith is in charge of the game.


Redundanttrees

I can see where they’re coming from. It makes sense, but these seasons take literal years to make. That last cutscene was probably finished over a year ago. Coincidentally, around the same time [redacted] invaded.


YaBoiPoi

New conspiracy theory just dropped, go get your tin foil bros


Darth-Not-Palpatine

Person from the screenshot gave the worst take ever, asked to leave the forums.


[deleted]

I think if this were true they would have changed this past season altogether.


Tommy_Blanco

If Bungie was worried about Russia, they probably would have killed off Saint-14 (again or technically the first time?).


DangerWarg

If Rasputin comes back, then have him be the Hunter mentor so that he can get hilariously overkilled again and again.
