On the Fortune Paper, there are proverbs and predictions. It somewhat resembles what one can read in a Chinese fortune cookie. On Reddit, users have compiled various sayings. Here is a selection (freely translated):
You will destroy to build
An unusual number of engrams will turn into strange coins
Your enemies will tremble before you
Master Rahool will surprise you, then disappoint you
You are not alone
Listen to the silence and hear what it has to say to you
Shaxx will definitely yell at you
Your future will be full of glimmer, engrams, strange coins, and other legendary marks
You will become more popular in the eyes of the Vanguard
Help! My name is Cayde! And they are forcing me to write fortune sayings in the Tower
Destiny: Fortune Paper – What does it mean?
In Destiny, fans are constantly looking for secrets and hidden messages. At the latest since “Taken King,” they suspect clues leading to a hidden exotic weapon or a secret chest everywhere. There is little doubt that this curiosity will also extend to the Fortune Papers.
Our theory regarding the Fortune Paper in Destiny: They are gags with no further impact on the game. The saying with Cayde-6 should make it clear. This is a typical joke to mock fortune sayings, into which too much meaning is often interpreted.
In WoW, there was an NPC selling overpriced items that described what the players’ heroes were already experiencing. For example, one item promises: After your death, you will resurrect – actually a “crazy thing,” but in MMOs it’s everyday life. Respawning works without this item as well.
Likes to yell at Guardians: Shaxx.
In Destiny, everyone has “strange coins” and engrams in their future. And every Guardian will be yelled at by Shaxx, no matter what they do. Just like “raisins” or “celery“, Destiny players should take the Fortune Paper as a wink from the developers, mocking the “search for secrets” they themselves have fueled. Players should not interpret endlessly.
Your loot chances and account fate are most likely not going to change, even if your note says something different than your friend’s.
Whether prophesied or not – he will disappoint you.
Therefore: This is a gag from the Destiny developers that plays on the hysteria with “fortune cookies” and the typical superstition of MMO players. However, they will never admit it, but rather leave it open because Bungie is Bungie.
Of course, that won’t stop anyone from stowing away the “Fortune Paper,” preserving it, and giving it a place of eternity in the vault. And then it will be again: OMG Bungie, you still haven’t made the vault bigger? What am I even paying 30 Euro for the expansion!?
Maybe a kiosk just for developer gags will come soon?
