Highlights
- Destiny 2 players have embraced the game's customization options to create unique and stylish looks for their characters, inspired by various sources such as Star Wars.
- Despite the relative limitations of Destiny 2's customization systems compared to other RPG games, players have found ways to create recognizable and impressive character designs, such as turning a Titan into Captain Enoch from Star Wars: Ahsoka.
- Bungie has recognized and encouraged this self-expression by introducing a Best Dressed commendation and hosting fashion show events with exclusive rewards.
One creative Destiny 2 player manages to use the customization options available to turn their Titan into Grand Admiral Thrawn's Captain Enoch recently introduced in the TV show, Star Wars: Ahsoka. Over the years, fashion has become a bigger part of the Destiny 2 experience for players. With the additions of a dedicated Appearance Customization system with the ability to use transmog for unlocked armor pieces, players have let their imaginations run wild by combining specific shader options with certain armor visuals.
In fact, even Bungie has enabled this self-expression by adding a highly requested Best Dressed Destiny 2 commendation earlier this year. Following various activities, players can hand out these commendations to others who made style their priority. While the customization systems in Destiny 2 may not be nearly as robust as other recent RPG style games like Starfield or the World Tour Mode from Street Fighter 6, it hasn't stopped players from creating familiar looking characters. In fact, one recent player managed to turn their Titan into the recently revealed villain, Captain Enoch.
In a new post on the Destiny 2 specific fashion subReddit, a user named JeremyXVI reveals how they turned their Titan into the character Captain Enoch from Star Wars: Ahsoka using the appearance customization tools. Sporting the familiar white plastoid style armor with red and gold accents that the Night Troopers wear, JeremyXVI managed to find a similar looking helmet through applying the Prodigal Helm transmog. Most of the armor pieces also use the Grand Luster shader, though the boots use Gift of the Nine while the Mark has the Regal Daring to give the look the red accents it needs.
Users in the thread seemed to be impressed with the creation, with many indicating that the perfect helmet would be the Titan exotic Eternal Warrior, which appears to be quite similar to Enoch's actual helmet from the show. The unfortunate aspect is that the exotic armor doesn't work with shaders, so it would be impossible to color the armor to match what would be needed. Some even took the opportunity to reveal a bit of the references behind the name and visual style of the character, linking it to the Roman Empire and the Japanese art custom of Kintsugi, a process of strengthening broken things by using gold, silver, or platinum.
This level of creativity has also been rewarded by Bungie, who originally developed a special Destiny 2 fashion specific Emblem that celebrated the more flexible Armor 2.0 system. Players can earn this exclusive emblem from Bungie directly during periodic fashion show events, typically announced and then highlighted through the weekly blog post.
Destiny 2 is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
