Destiny 2: Fans Plead for a No-Nonsense Villain in Xivu Arath
In the r/DestinyTheGame community, there’s a growing consensus that Xivu Arath should be portrayed as a traditional, malevolent villain – one who operates covertly, reveling in the chaos she causes with an evil grin. A post by user Row75 sparked a shift, expressing concern about another empathetic villain backstory leading to eventual redemption. He urges Bungie, “It’s okay to have irredeemable villains,” calling for characters who are unrepentant and malicious. He even adds a touch of humor, commenting on enjoying the destruction of minor enemies without remorse. This preference for straightforwardly evil characters indicates a yearning for less moral ambiguity and more clear-cut good-versus-evil stories. Players crave the excitement of confronting something truly wicked, and given Xivu Arath’s status as a powerful war god, she appears ideally suited to this role.
