Loot Shooter Copycat The First Descendant Accused Of Ripping Off Destiny 2 Art

The response of some players has been to point out that some of Destiny 2's own in-game icons appear to be sourced to creative commons art. The account BungieLeaks pointed to one website that includes a symbol for an artifact perk icon that was used by Bungie in a recent season.
