In the ashes of Destiny 2, furious developer creates playable Pete Parsons-themed parody raid where the former Bungie CEO attacks “the entire playerbase” with cars

GamesRadar+ · 2 months ago

A disgruntled developer has built a playable parody raid for Destiny 2 that casts former Bungie CEO Pete Parsons as its central boss, depicting him attacking "the entire playerbase" with cars. The creation is a pointed piece of satire aimed at Bungie's leadership during a period of turmoil for the studio and its flagship shooter, reflecting wider frustration among developers and fans over the game's troubled state and management decisions.

The parody references Parsons' well-publicised interest in collecting classic cars, turning it into an in-game attack mechanic against players. It arrives against a backdrop of ongoing difficulties at Bungie, including layoffs and dissatisfaction with the direction of Destiny 2, and channels community anger into a mock boss encounter rather than a serious piece of content.

  • Developer builds a mock Destiny 2 raid mocking ex-Bungie CEO Pete Parsons.
  • The Parsons boss attacks the whole playerbase using cars.
  • The parody reflects wider anger over Bungie's troubles and leadership.
