2:40 Actual footage of Byf pouring his heart and soul into this project.

[jbmovies]

Speaker dies: well no one can speak for the traveler

Byf: my time has come

[hitori_]

Just as I’m about to get chronicler I see that this is dropping

“*chuckles* It’s all coming together”

[sarvjotbaxi]

How did I end up watching this on auto play while sleeping?

[Blessious]

Sir Byf. I just want to say THANK YOU. You go above and beyond not only with your videos, but what you do for charity.

You are a beacon of light in this community and I respect the world out of you.

1:58:32 “to allow other guardians to train by fighting each other”

Shaxx: “YOUR ENEMY CAN’T KILL YOU IF THEY’RE DEAD HAHA”

"He who killed Oryx should have a greater knowledge of the universe around him"
Me: *T-bags and dabs after completing Kings Fall"

[oniemployee]

Hearing about the Titan legends in detail nearly made me shed a tear. I have never been so proud to have chosen the crayon eaters as my most valued class.

[ryancross]

I watched this whole video while I waited for a game of crucible to start. Amazing video by the way.

[adrianlana]

Everyone: "Guardians make their own fate..." Omg these quotes are so good!

Me: "C o n s u m e t h e r o y a l j e l l y"

[canadiancanucklehead]

“Eris’ Fireteam would know some measure of peace.”

Shadowkeep: “Allow me to introduce myself.”

[garrettviewegh]

I come back here every now and then. Not to listen to Byf’s silky smooth, accent narrate the story, in a compelling way to fall to sleep. But to be enthralled all over again by the captivating story of Destiny and its universe. There is potential here for spin off shows, books, more comics, and maybe a movie. I look forward to Byf’s updated: “The complete story of Destiny”, video in the near future. It’s meant to cover the whole Light vs Dark saga, all in time to lead up to the Final Shape.

[RealShojin]

For a God-King, we really bullied the shit out of Oryx.. Imagine how he felt, having to climb up to show himself everytime he hears another fireteam stomping into his place

[Shinx]

Xol lived hundreds of millions of years ago, just to be killed in seconds, and shoved into a sniper rifle? Nasty way to go.

[dannythepyromancer]

"The titanic worm god roared above us and..."

Died in 15 seconds lmao

[Carebear_Pooh]

We should start a petition where we ask Bungie to work together with Byf to create a Historian/Lorekeeper character in the last city that shares all of this in-game, using the voice-over of Byf with additional/recycled story cutscenes of Bungie.

[irishemperor]

Can't wait for Destiny 7 when Byf explains the relationship between Crota's step-daughter & the 3rd cousin of Savathun's next door neighbour's cat's previous owner :D

[TedKutina]

Wow, two hours in, how far are we into the game's story?
2:09:30 "And then the first game starts"

[haispam]

The traveler is just being bullied for being a sphere by a bunch of pointy triangle bois

[Slug_ssbm]

I kinda hope Byf does something like this after Final Shape to cover the entire Light vs Darkness saga but it’d probably be 10+ hours long.
I’d still watch it.
