Talk:Market District

Same as Riverside?

Do we know for certain, in-universe, it is the same as the Riverside District and not just reusing assets. The side buildings, where the lab and core are located are quite different but could be big renovations. --NotPlagiarised (talk) 05:59, October 19, 2024 (EDT)

I think it's safe to assume it is the same area, as the Variisis Core was built fairly recently, according to the Restless Dreams lore. Not to mention Riverside District and Market District could be interchangeable names; previously there didn't appear to be any form of market, so it was simply Riverside because it was next to the river. Now with the addition of the market, people probably have started calling the Market District. WizardWolf ^{Talk | Contribs} 07:32, October 19, 2024 (EDT)

The Restless Dreams lore is a very good point I didn't see. I now agree that it is fair to be the same location/district. Thank you.--NotPlagiarised (talk) 08:55, October 19, 2024 (EDT)

Is there anything explicitly mentioned in lore to back that? 69.180.54.112 08:10, October 19, 2024 (EDT)

Cities evolve overtime. Reusing assets in the cities isn't the same situation such as Dry Sea and Forgotten Shore. Say we get a mission that takes place in Límíng Harbor, but suddenly it's called South Harbor. The infrastructure is all the same and the relation to landmarks are the same (with the Districts, that would be their relation to the Tower, and the big dome-like building). Not to mention I already stated that the Riverside district canonically changed since House of Light arrived. WizardWolf ^{Talk | Contribs} 08:38, October 19, 2024 (EDT)

Also just rewatched some clips from the Traveler event, it's not even called Riverside District, it's just called Riverside. As such, Riverside is not an official name, and Market District is. WizardWolf ^{Talk | Contribs} 08:53, October 19, 2024 (EDT)

I think what we need are photos from Riverside District in Season of Arrivals that prove beyond a reasonable doubt. 69.180.54.112 09:05, October 19, 2024 (EDT)

I can do you one better: Beyond Light Traveler Full Live Event - IGN. WizardWolf ^{Talk | Contribs} 09:08, October 19, 2024 (EDT)

If anything, this should be put into the trivia rather than outright stating that Riverside became the Market District. Bungie is known for reusing assets. TheTrueSorrowMaker (contribs) 09:50, October 19, 2024 (EDT)
