Destiny's famed 'lore daddy' releases a 10-hour history recap, with 12,000 people tuning in for the live premiere

Destiny's storytelling and worldbuilding has come a long way since the days of grimoire cards, but that hasn't necessarily made the lore any easier to keep track of. Destiny 2 is a game dense with proper nouns, and it only gets denser: Each season and expansion piles on more in-game lore books and implication-heavy item descriptions, any one of which could eventually become a focus for the ongoing story.

Luckily, we've got tireless Destiny lore YouTubers like My name is Byf, affectionately titled "Lore Daddy" by his many pupils, to keep all our story-relevant space orbs in order. And don't get it twisted: those orbs take a hell of a lot of ordering. Byf's latest Destiny story recap, released today with a live premiere, clocks in at a healthy nine hours—roughly a third of which I'd guess involves cataloging the setting's various Shapes of Cosmic Importance.

Clearly, there's an eager audience for it. As Byf tweeted around two hours into the video's live premiere, nearly 12,000 people were watching to brush up on their Destiny lore mastery in time for The Final Shape...

Destiny 2's The Final Shape might require about five times the space of one Elden Ring to install via Steam

So, Destiny 2's The Final Shape expansion. It's bringing some pretty big changes with it when it properly arrives on June 4, but before then Bungie's decided to give us a nice idea of just how much install space it'll require. Via Steam, for both the game and the expansion you might be looking at...er...something like five times the size of one Elden Ring install.

Yep. Now, while you're hyperventilating, let me get something out of the way. In the same post in which it divulged that number, Bungie acknowledged that the expansion was accidentally pushed live on PS5's streaming service the other day. "A small group of players were able to play some of the campaign, access Collections, and other reward info coming in The Final Shape and Echoes," it wrote, "We recommend being very careful on social media over the next few days to avoid spoilers."

So, that's that out of the way. On to the big number - 299.70 GB on Steam, with up to 144.20 GB of it being your base install of Destiny 2, along with a pre-load of the expansion that can require up to 155.50 GB. Boom, nearly 300 GB altogther, which is exactly five times the 60 GB an install of the base version of Elden Ring is listed as requiring on the platform.
