  • The Community Responds to the Fall of Destiny 2
    Oct 3 2025

    This week on Tower Casuals: The Destiny Podcast

    ⁠⁠Corey Dirrig⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Josh Finney⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ sit down to discuss the rise in community and influencer discussion on Destiny 2's complete downfall and why it matters not only to the game, but Bungie as a studio.

    They also dive into some recent gaming news like the $55 billion deal to take EA private from some interesting players, including the Saudi Public Fund. Fans have concerns about games like The Sims being censored and studios that focus on choice like BioWare and Motive being closed. This deal is set to finalize in 2027 pending any disruption.

    Finally, they discuss the 50% price increase for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, now making it $29.99 USD. Though that is still a great deal for the amount of games players have available to them per month, that extra ten dollars may cause canceled subscriptions and prevent new ones.

    ⁠Corey Dirrig⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Josh Finney⁠⁠ raise a glass as Pete Parsons announced via social media and the Bungie website that he’s stepping down as CEO, with longtime designer Justin Truman stepping in as the studio’s new head.

    They also dive into upcoming changes to the Destiny 2 Portal, questionable sandbox adjustments, the return of the Plaguelands in the Ash and Iron Update, and why SIVA isn’t the next subclass… again.
