Destiny 2's Festival of the Lost 2025: A Spooky Vote and Ongoing Concerns
Destiny 2 players are gearing up for a chilling choice in the upcoming Festival of the Lost 2025 event. Bungie has unveiled two new armor sets, "Slashers" and "Spectres," inspired by classic horror icons, and is letting the community vote to determine which set will be available in October. The sets feature designs inspired by Jason Voorhees, Ghostface, the Babadook, La Llorona, and even Slenderman.
This announcement, however, comes amidst growing player frustration. Episode Revenant, the current season, has been plagued by bugs and issues, including broken tonics and other gameplay problems, leading to declining player numbers and engagement. While Bungie has addressed many of these problems, the community's overall sentiment remains negative.
The surprise reveal of the Festival of the Lost armor sets, ten months in advance, has further fueled this discontent. Many players feel Bungie should be prioritizing addressing the game's current issues rather than focusing on a future event. The anticipation for the new armor is high, but it's overshadowed by concerns about the game's overall health. The inclusion of the previously unavailable Wizard armor from the 2024 Festival of the Lost event during Episode Heresy is a small consolation.
Key Features:
- Slashers vs. Spectres: Players vote to determine which horror-themed armor set (Slashers or Spectres) will be released.
- Iconic Horror Inspirations: Designs inspired by Jason, Ghostface, Babadook, La Llorona, and Slenderman.
- Community Concerns: Declining player numbers and persistent bugs in Episode Revenant are causing significant player frustration.
