Let's dissect the shit out of this Destiny Poster

Poster 1 [url=http://imgur.com/DEULn7g]Poster 2[/url][spoiler]*A Wild Gringo has appeared*[/spoiler] This needs no intro. You all have seen the Destiny 2 poster that is all but confirmed legit. That being said, assuming it is indeed official material, lets dissect the ever living -blam!- out of it to see if we can predict anything we can about Destiny 2. Also possible spoiler warning but the chances of this spoiling minor points of Destiny 2. [b]Traveler and Location[/b] So firstly it appears the Traveler is in the background. This is much more apparent in Poster 1 than 2, simply because of the bending of poster 2. Now this could mean a couple of things location wise. Firstly it could be the Last City, over which the Traveler currently resides. As we know though, the Last City resides in a temperate region marked by mountains, snow, and lush expanses of pine trees. The area on the poster is, however, is flat, dusty, and devoid of fauna. Now with the Traveler above, that either means the Traveler has left the City or something seriously bad happened to it. Seeing that the climate seems arid and there are those oil pumps in the background, I would care to wager that if it isn't the City, it is probably either the American Southwest or the Middle East. Or it could just be another planet/ moon. [b]Weapons[/b] So on the right is a blatant Suros shotgun. It is much better on Poster 2 but there is no denying it. In the middle we see what is certainly an Omolon weapon, namely with the logo pronounced on the magazine/ canister. It shares a resemblance to the only Omolon Auto Rifle in game, Hard Light. It would stand to reason then that this could be an Auto Rifle. That being said, it does bear an unusual resemblance to [url=http://imgur.com/8AWnMVi]Halo's Railgun[/url] and I think Bungie would be crazy to not add new weapon types. Plus if someone was gonna make railguns in Destiny, it would be Omolon. On the left is a handcannon (Maybe sidearm but it seems too large). It has a distinctive look that seems similar to Suros but the paint job is off. It is either: a blue variation of Suros, an exotic with an ornament, a new foundry, or some random weapon. [b]Classes and Armor[/b] So front in center is a Titan. No ifs ands or buts about it. On the right appears to be a warlock with the long flowing ground. On the right seems to be a Hunter, and knowing Destiny is keeping the three classes that seems the case. It is hard to see but there appears to be a cloak. It should also be something of note that their helmets are off but I doubt that is anything more than marketing. [b]Misc.[/b] Beta PS4 exclusives September 8 release There is a ship in the background. It isn't clear but it seems to be Human, Fallen, or some unknown thing. So what do you think? Do you think it is real or an elaborate fake?

  • The ship in the background could just be completely random. It has a striking resemblance to the Frigates in the halo series, for instance the Forward unto Dawn. If Bungie is going with that same kind of aesthetic for the ships, that could mean that that ship is human. Maybe guardians ships will play a bigger role, who knows. But then on the flip side it could likely be a fallen ship of some sort, because it kind of has that long back part that skiffs have. Also notice how it is not really moving, like there is no motion blur or anything to suggest that it is moving, which could mean it is a drop ship of some degree, which is exactly what skiffs are. The location that they are in could be the last city, if the cabal actually attacked it. It was hinted that the cabal do attack in a toy that showed up on amazon hinting at it. It does look dry and arid, and maybe it is the last city many years after some kind of full scale invasion, that decimated the city. Or maybe it is a completely different part of the earth. In the time between destiny 1 and destiny 2 the traveler could of been fixed or it could of fixed itself, and moved to a different part of the globe during the cabal invasion to save itself. On the flip side of that, and this is my personal theory, is that this poster is on mars. The architecture matches up with the building and things found in the Psion flare mission on the very top of the building. Also the cabal are supposed to be the main antagonists. The traveler being there could mean that it has moved back to mars, or it just shows up in the background for marketing. That brings me back to my finale statement, and it has to do with that ship again. If this picture is on mars, which i am inclined to believe, than that ship could be a cabal ship. It has the same very blocky look to it, like other cabal drop ships, and it would make more sense than it being a human or fallen ship. Phew, that was a lot of typing.
