Hello and welcome Guardians! for those who still recognize my name it's been a while, for everyone else, HELLO! i'm AnonPig, i do the lore things.
But today I'm here to ask you that very simple question, there are three Factions in Destiny and they all have their own philosophical stance on how to do things in the Destiny Universe, i align with Dead Orbit myself because i feel it's the most logical answer. Holding on to our planets and our lost Golden Age is a mistake, we can find a better life out there among a different star.
so what does your Faction mean to you? (answers may be read on the corresponding Faction episode of my podcast the Destiny Lore Cast, go check out our episode with Baxter from https://www.ishtar-collective.net linked above!)

This is a really good question! I'm glad someone is bringing up this topic. Unfortunately, I would have to say... nothing. I joined one of each faction so I could get their gear. That's pretty much it. The factions in the game have been criminally underrepresented in the story. Bungie set them up to have such a big part in Destiny, with all the lore about them fighting to take over the Tower and possibly coming back to finish the job and the friction with the Vanguard, but it all just went... ... nowhere. So, yeah... I don't feel anything about them other than I'm glad they helped me level up. Wish I could say more, honestly.
