Electric Cartilage And The Games That Don't Exist. About Author, About Blog. The Vex: Uncovering the hidden lore in Destiny. A while ago I delved into the Lore behind the Hive, fueled by revelations found in old concept art. I decided to give a similar treatment to the Vex, although I use mostly grimoire cards and item flavor text to figure out what’s really going on with the Vex. I also made a post on reddit. THE VEX AND THE BLACK GARDEN. WHO WAS THE ORIGINAL GARDENER? For a crucial clue to who was, che...

Electric Cartilage And The Games That Don't Exist. About Author, About Blog. Finding Destiny’s hidden lore through concept art: the Truth of the Hive. I think that some aspects of Destiny’s lore that have yet to be revealed about the Hive can actually be guessed at by looking at some very old concept art from early in Destiny’s development. TL;DR: There’s a “Conclusions and Theories” section all the way at the bottom of the page which sums everything up. I made a post about this on reddit. Other artwork ...

Electric Cartilage And The Games That Don't Exist. About Author, About Blog. Not Doom, E3 2015: how Bethesda fails to understand Doom. I was looking at Bethesda’s 2015 E3 presentation of the new Doom and I had some thoughts. Mainly they were about how what we were seeing WASN’T a Doom game and how modern developers either don’t understand what made Doom fun or don’t care. I mean, they don’t have to care because the brand name sells itself, but still. A lot of that has to do with communicating to the play...
