This absolutely should be intro for newbies ingame, really needed something like this for years.
Exactly what new players needed. A cutscene explaining the basics of the story, just like the D1 intro did
@Big Nutty Not to this extent. The new light cutscene is litterally the d1 intro with the speaker basically saying “we had a golden age, darkness ruined it, traveler died, you’re here now, go shoot some aliens”
They have that for new light lol
(Skips)
I LOVE that they’re keeping this ink and sketch cutscene style. It’s so Destiny. And the glitchy title drop at the end, chef’s kiss.
The original destiny 1 trailer with the astronauts on Mars still makes me cry honestly
You know as some may call this cutting corners when making cutscenes but Bungie does these sorts of cutscenes/slideshow cinematics really damn well that i even get excited to see them. I mean especially when their music is so good like cmon
That’s because you write your own destiny.
Lmao
What are the blurry shapes after the title disappearance at the end?
PLEASE PUT THIS IN THE GAME FOR NEW PLAYERS TO KNOW WTF IS GOING ON
I agree. I’ve been a veteran since just before Taken King released so I somewhat know what’s going on but for brand new players who have been on D1 or the start of D2 may be confused. So to have this as a guide for new players who want to invest their time into the story should have this shown to them, it’s quick and easy to understand what’s going on. Plus it was cool to see how far the actual story had come so far.
Hahaha lmao! 😂 They should indeed…
You could watch a vid, this is pretty common knowledge
Play d1 blueberry
The New Lights NEED THIS
Im really happy for the new players that they’re getting this.
Im trying to get a friend into Destiny and its really hard for them because they have no idea what is the world, and what is their place in it
hopefully this might hint at a new-player-experience rework.
@Hannah FBR Oh, yeah that makes sense. Same thing with a friend of mine, we just fuck around and do random shit, he doesn’t really care much for the story.
Honestly, unless you really care about lore and story, destiny just boils down to, get loot, so that you can use it to get more loot. Loot usually being weapons of mass destruction in the form of guns, armor, and new abilities.
@Gianni Carbonara ive got like 70 hours but all i know of the lore is what my friend tells me, plus the first mission of forsaken that’s gone now
I ended up watching multiple Byf videos and deep-diving on wikis just to get some sense of wtf was happening. Who were these enemies? Why were we at war? What the hell HAPPENED before I was Risen? Why should I care? What’s my motivation? It took HOURS.
@Gianni Carbonara he probably just wants his friends to be raid-ready and raid w him, I get that.
It’s my fucking dream that my close friends will form a 6 man w me but its just not gonna happen even tho d2 is free to play and it sucks.
Sorry for formatting and grammar, mobile and in a rush.
@Hannah FBR That, is pretty late game. Have you ever played before?
Y’all need to put this in the game so that new player know wtf is going on, amazing cinematic! So hype!!!
@sanity”lol how about you read the lore?!?!”
How about your read my initial comment that you responded to? “Destiny’s lore? AMAZING! Destiny’s in game story, absolutely dreadful.”
I was reading the grimoire cards back in D1, I’m fully aware of the lore being great. That’s literally what I opened my comment with. The lore and the story that the player is presented with is not the same thing. Also you are not aware of any of my playing habits, where I was before stopping playing daily and coming back for The Witch Queen.
@Chris lol how about you read the lore?!?! it’s all there conveniently in a tab just for you. And pertaining to the story, only equating one year being good as compared to the other years in terms of in game story telling is very tone deaf in my opinion. The in game story itself has been great in terms of character development and world building, only problem in the beginning of this new system was just implementing gameplay with the story, which has all been remedied for the most part. Can’t compare the other years if you’ve been absent just now come back.
@sanity I came back for The Witch Queen, didn’t feel like the delivery of the lore to the player via the in-game story has gotten any better. And it’s objectively abysmal for new players. Even if I agreed with you, one year finally after seven years of garbage is not anything to aspire to. They are even aware of what a meme their poor scripts and stories are and put that in game with No Time to Explain.
@Chris bro’s been living under a rock 🤣
@Chris stories been amazing for over a year now
This actually had me tear up. Great summary remembering the years.
Same :’)
@PL Coudercy me too, barely touched this season but man, it was hard not to cry
@PL Coudercy same here man. fingers crossed this new season will bring us some excitement, this was a fantastic teaser and reminder of the history of Destiny.
Man, I’m in a burnout phase of D2 but I started to tear up as well.
Seeing the rise of Guardians against threats of Humanity, with that great soundtrack… Chills.
Every. Goddamn. Time.
I love this game just got back into it recently
Exact same thing happened to me
Same, I really missed this game, so back to grinding
Good to have you back Guardian.
I’m glad they’re finally giving more context for newer players. This better play right when you make your new character!
This whole video is a joke
doesn’t make sense to play when you make a new character because your guardian also doesn’t know what is happening in the world, but if it plays when you talk to someone at the tower it would be perfect 👍.
This ad is really boring (no one likes ads lol)
This ad is really long
i really hope this game never ends. it pulled me out of a really dark time in my life. i have made tons for friends. i may take breaks but i always come back to destiny. this has been my life game, not just my main game. thank you guys for everything you have done and for listening to the community. you have made an absolute master piece.
