Why is the effect of the first Collapse significant now? Well, Bungie has always been great at setting up story beats within the lore. When the Collapse began Titan was uniquely effected, being a colonized heavily liquid planet, the sudden increase of gravitational pull brought on by…. Rasputin playing an audio feed of Titan and not Earth is a huge implication people probably missed.

The gravitational pull on the unique liquid methane moon distorted the entire shape of the heavenly object and created in effect a “god wave” that ensured no life remained. Notably, these recording came from Titan, which was absolutely devastated in the original Collapse. He reminds us of the conversation between Zavala and Rasputin last week when the Io bunker opened, and how it included audio recordings from the first Collapse. The theory comes from AnonPig on Twitter. Bungie might be getting ready to completely destroy this moon entirely, potentially even removing the patrol zone from the map. First up as a playable space in the line of fire is Titan, a moon of Saturn, but this location could become much more than just a hot zone. But the implications of the approaching Darkness could be even more massive than anyone could have realized, if theories by some Destiny lore analysts are anything to go by. This week, it became clear that there’s an impending doom in Destiny 2, one that’s approaching much more rapidly than we previously thought.
