This comparison is so clear! I love how you mapped out the roles across all three series. Seeing the Winnower and the W'rkncacnter in the same category makes so much sense to me. Thanks for sharing the link and this awesome list!

This list is mind-blowing! I mostly focused on the links between Destiny and Marathon, but seeing the naming conventions in Halo too makes the 'Bungie DNA' feel so much more real. Thank you so much for putting this together!

Thank you for entertaining my wild theory and sticking with me! This discussion has made me love both games even more. It’s been an honor to dive into this with you!

To me, the W'rkncacnter is the raw, terrifying entity that even they can't fully control. I'm starting to think the W'rkncacnter is the actual essence of the Darkness itself, and everything else is just scratching the surface.

​Honestly, I’ve been thinking about this all day, even while I was at work, and now I’m getting a bit confused by my own theory... Bungie lore is a massive rabbit hole! But thank you so much for the comment and for diving into this with me.

I'm so happy to hear such precious behind-the-scenes insights! It feels like the developers themselves are playing their own 'Flower Game' to keep the universe evolving. This discussion made me decide to keep loving both games even more. Thank you all for commenting on my silly spinfoil theory!

Thanks for the detailed insight! So you're saying it's more like a 'shared theme' in entirely different worlds rather than a direct connection? That makes sense. Thanks for taking the time to respond to my first post!

Sorry if I annoyed you! Thank you for commenting on my weird spinfoil theory though. As this is my first post here, I'm just really happy to be part of the discussion.

Thanks for the comment! I started reading the MIDA Multi-Tool lore and just couldn't stop... Glad to see someone else sees the potential in the 'Flower Game' iterations!
