I def think the Sony situation will allow them to keep some of that legacy content going in the future. I actually would love a destiny 3 built from the ground up on PS5/PC and into ps6/pc with the SSD in mind. Kind of no man's sky it and seamlessly move from planet to planet. That is the next necessary evolution imo. Regardless they have improved the franchise dramatically , I wasn't able to get into it during d1 or when d2 launched, but it's way better now.

The content should be available on the server side, is just disabled from the client side. There needs to be a way, like having multiple home screens for the campaings + home screen for the sandbox experience.

Yeah if they could find a way to add that in, since Destiny 2 is a sci-fi, they could allow Guardians to use a portal to travel back in time to areas that are now sunset (in story terms consumed by darkness) where it launches a separate area which shouldn't affect the main sandbox, I know it will probably be time/effort to maintain but they could treat it like D1 and just leave it as-is.

4 hours?? Jesus

90% of the story of the original Destiny was hidden in cards that weren't even in the game, but from a website. Didn't improve much in D2, but they at least tried to have a decent campaign that told a basic 3 act story (which you can no longer play because Bungie are greedy cunts).

Bungie has been experimenting with different ways to tell the story in the game. They've found a pretty good balance now with releasing a main campaign and then a seasonal storyline.

With all this destiny and bungie talk I felt that I should give destiny a try as the sci fi theme interests me, so I watched some gameplay videos on it and I was instantly turned off, just looks like CoD shit, modern FPS aren't for me.

I wouldn't give up on it just yet. Forget the videos, you can try out the game for free on any system so I suggest giving that a try first.

Bungie will be releasing a VIDoc (in about 14 hrs). If you want to learn more about Savathûn:

What do I need to buy to get in to Destiny 2?

The Legendary Edition includes Shadow Keep, Forsaken and Beyond Light. Are all of those expansions still relevant? Do I need them for PVP content?

Also, if I buy the expansions on PS5 can I play everything without needing PS Plus?

You needs two things I believe.

- Legacy collection $59.90 (it contains all 3 previous expansions content)
- Buy the new The Witch Quern $39.90.

That is the minimum.

You need PS+ for multiplayer content… Strikes, Raid, Crucible, etc.

If I just have the base destiny 2 game from years ago am I able to just get the witch queen expansion and I'm good to go?

I want an ACTUAL open world. Hate this instanced shit.

You can... but I highly recommend playing the Forsaken campaign at least. It's currently free right now for everyone until Feb 22nd.

I'd play that first and if you enjoy it, then you'll have a better idea if you wanna continue the rest of the campaigns (Shadowkeep and Beyond Light) or if you wanna just jump into the Witch Queen.

IMHO though, Shadowkeep and especially Beyond Light are worth it if you enjoy the game.
