  • Destiny 2 The Dark Ages. Curse of Osiris and Warmind were considered to be the Dark Ages of Destiny 2. For good reason. Destiny 2 had one of the worst launch releases in history. Destiny 2 would need to scrap so much of the initial ideas for the game, yet we had 2 expansions coming soon. Curse of Osiris DLC and Warmind DLC. Destiny 2 History Series continues with this episode focused on Destiny 2 and its first 2 DLC's.

    I just found this channel, and man this is exactly what I needed. There must be thousands just like me who took a 1-2 year break from the game and feel like they just missed everything.
    I can catch myself up on lore easily, I love that shit. But the actual real story going on behind the gameplay is something I plainly missed out on and can’t get back (even if all im missing was a worse version of the game)
    Just wanted to say thanks for these, not just are they entertaining but I feel like im actually learning stuff lmao.
    (Also, it’s rare to see a destiny youtuber and not feel like im being mislead for clicks and watch time :) )

    A couple of other notable points in Warmind that I think are worth mentioning: The Worldline Zero quest and the Valkyrie ARG. The Worldline quest required that you find little colored targets all over Mars and hit them with an element matching their color (or with the Javelin). Finding all of them required you to really search everywhere on the new destination in a way that CoO and vanilla had not. The Valkyrie ARG started with a symbol in the hallway leading to Rasputin and was a pretty large scale community puzzle leading to an IRL Valkyrie and some coins with a Warmind symbol on them at a certain location. Both of these, along with the Whisper mission, were Bungie putting secrets back into the game, things to do in the game outside of the standard gameplay loop. Forsaken came with secrets in abundance, but Warmind was the start of those being brought back into the game.

      eh, i wouldn't really call myself something THAT interasting to do the quest to get, espectially when you put the Valkyrie ARG thing on the side with it, plus i came earlier in the progress of those things than the sparrow which was weird, like i needed only 35 of the nodes while the sparrow needed 45, which might of been like that on purpose so you could get me easily-ish and then on top of that go and get a cool and for the most part useless sparrow to have, or to put it in other words, the sparrow might of just been something extra for getting all of them, or i am that one thing you really want(ed) to get in the battlepass and the rest, in this case the stuff after that thing you wanted are whatever. idk, something like that, but yeaa... i at least still have some tricks and i am IMO fun to use, (incert surprised pikachu face). and you know, i'm saying that as a player not as the weapon itself talking about itself being good and fun or whatever.

    I think one of the things that should have been mentioned too was the difficulty of Escalation protocol.
    It was a good activity, but the fact that it was basically impossible for a lot of people until you actively manipulated lobbies (talk to blueberries until you found one willing to invite your friends and leave) to have 9 people and still barely complete it was ridiculous. And the weapons and armor were rare af with no bad luck protection what-so-ever.
    Good event, but i remember personally waiting until season of undying to actually go back and get the weapons when it was more doable

    It's funny that I still go back to D1 to have fun. D2 is in a very good state, probably the best it's ever been. However, I personally prefer D1's art direction, strikes, exciting loot, and its cohesive weapon and armor designs over D2, despite the lack of QoL mechanics and graphical fidelity. A testament to how much love and care was put into Destiny 1 compared to Destiny 2.

Assumably, as a clueless new player, you go to the director and look for the next mission, only to realise it’s locked behind the DLC, fair enough, what else is there? Patrols and strikes and crucible? If you’ve just loaded up destiny you wouldn’t even know what those things are.

    I started playing Destiny 2 with the Curse of Osiris expansion, so I missed all of D1 and the initial launch of D2. Seeing this series of videos you've been making really puts a lot of things I missed into perspective. It's fascinating to see the state of the game with each release. There's also a certain nostalgia factor in seeing Curse of Osiris and Warmind, even Red War. There are so many things from that time that just aren't in the game anymore. I find myself going "OH! I forgot that was a thing!" or "I miss that" a lot. Thank you for all your hard work on these videos. Each time I see you've uploaded I get really excited.

      Menagerie the other hand really set a standard they're yet to meet. ESPECIALLY how the loot worked, where you essentially pick and choose the gun AND its masterwork you're getting. And with some upgrades you got once a week up to THREE copies, three times the odds of getting the roll you want. Now? 10-17min blueberryfest and you get a SINGULAR item in the end and it's 110% random and if it's armor, the stats WILL suck cause it's not an ""endgame source"" IE a raid etc.

My fireteam came back during CoO, did what we needed to do and left again, but around Warmind we got a lot more active again. I remember it being a turning point and us actually finishing off the boring stuff from curse of Osiris we neglected to do. though, the real turning point for us to get more active in D2 was after E3, I do admit I expected an interlude to THAT trailer and how it shook the Fanbase. but I'm guessing you're saving that for the Forsaken video.

    Curse of Osiris and Warmind are tough to talk about. Mainly because these DLCs both have to do with topics that I was extremely invested in.
    First let’s talk about Curse. Easily the worst DLC and time in Destiny’s history. They gave us basically nothing for its content. They ruined Brother Vance by making him a ridiculous fanboy. They ruined Mercury by making literally everything there be inside of the terrible Infinite Forest. Don’t get me started on Osiris. It was so much better when he was a mysterious, powerful and dangerous Warlock who “came to close to understanding the Vex”. Now he’s just an old guy who knows about the Vex and can travel through the Infinite Forest. Great. Eater of Worlds is easily the worst raid ever. One encounter is actually just ad waves. The only cool things that were available were in Eververse.
    Warmind is much better but also still not good. Ana Bray was an ok character, I didn’t really have a problem with her like I did with Osiris and Brother Vance. I like what they did with Mars. I would’ve preferred a new planet but having a brand new area of Mars was fine. The story was abysmal. They absolutely ruined Xol and Nokris. Such interesting characters in the lore made into weak punching bags. Nokris got redeemed by Season of Arrivals but Xol just got turned into a gun. It would’ve been so much better to have them as raid bosses. Escalation Protocol was amazing, however. It was always a bitch to complete but the loot and the experience were always worth it. Spire of Stars was much better than EoW mainly because of Val Ca’uor. That boss fight was always one of my favorites.
    (Yeah Whisper gets its own section. That’s how good it is.)
    Whisper is what made Destiny 2 good. It had a great atmosphere, difficulty, secrets, lore and loot. It brought back that sense of wonder to the game which it had been lacking for its entire life.

My playtime was super high the first week D2 came out, but dropped off once there wasn't anything to do. I hardly logged in until CoO released, which I played for about 2 weeks before dropping again. Warmind held me a fair bit longer, especially on reset days (one of my days off work). I loved the tone of Warmind, I just really wish that the strikes had been a bit more Rasputin focused, and that Nokris and Xol had been saved for a raid in a new location, rather than having yet another raid lair on the Leviathan.

    I remember switching to PC a week before the go fast update. The change to movement speed, weapons, nightfall loot, and most importantly for me was they fixed raid loot so you where guaranteed a loot drop after every encounter and not just tokens (as well as raid mods for the Leviathan armour exclusive to that armour and they were strong mods).
    Warning was special, nothing has been like escalation protocol back in the day, back when you needed 7-9 players to beat it and Spire of Stars was a really good raid (just heavily misunderstood) (and with terrible loot outside of the sleeper catalyst that got added months after launch).

    I guess it's helpful to keep the game in perspective sometimes. We tend to look back with rose-tinted glasses, but vanilla D2 and COO were truly dark times for the game in general. Now we have a lot to grind in-game every season with a time-gate to get it mostly done within the season the content/loot drops because of seasonal currencies getting scarce after said-season concludes (if you can make sense of my run-on sentence). Things may be stale right now, but nowhere near what they were in 2017/18.

    One of the big kick in the teeth with the Nightfall strikes was the PC version of Destiny 2 launched 3-4 weeks before Curse of Osiris launched. The Solstice of Heroes Year 1 i remember they hinted that it will help you get ready for Forsaken. I still have my 1st Solstice Ship Estival Excursion equipped. Never gonna remove that ship, it was worth the grind.

    Just got to the bit about Brother Vance. That line from D1 "What a strange place to find myself in. What a strange time." is interesting to me and I have a theory, one I think would be a pretty cool storyline for say Lightfall or The Final Shape. Perhaps the Brother Vance from D1 is from the Brother Vance of D2's future. Brother Vance or BV in D2, at the end of Season of Arrivals when the Darkness shows up and swallows Mercury maybe brought the Sundial back online, or had some kind of Time Travel tech, maybe he hid in the Infinite Forest (I'm not 100% on the lore so correct me if I'm wrong). Perhaps BV accidentally sent himself back in time to D1, and had to live much longer there. If he used to be a Guardian, that would explain the not aging bit. Idk, it's 1am and I'm just ranting.
    Either way, would be cool to see BV show up as the D1 version in a future expansion, and give us some kind of weapon or tool for taking down the Witness.

    The worse thing about Curse of Osiris is the location, Mercury was a NASCAR track with the only public event on the middle, there was nothing to it, nothing to explore, to visit, a waste of space.

      Dawg, I forgot about it. Perfect Paradox and Escalation Protocol shotties are still the best looking ones in Destiny history. In a way, Perfect Paradox was better for me because it was kinetic and eventually came with Trench barrel as well. I miss that shotgun. It should never have been sunset.

    I can't believe you didn't mention the dawning free items not dropping bright dust when you dismantled them. You got 3 engrams per week for free, and that was it. Any other items you earnt from the event wouldn't give you bright dust, despite them being literally identical to the engram ones. I remeber having two indistinguishable stacks of dawning shaders because some just weren't allowed to give you meaningful currency

    I purchased the $100 edition of destiny 2 on console and remember being very disappointed mostly because of there being nothing to do at the end and getting recycled content from D1 which they specifically said they weren’t going to do. Nevertheless I played both expansions to get my moneys worth and never touched the game again. Years past now with a pc and I heard the game was ftp and how many great improvements were made to it. I tried it again about a year ago and fell back in love. They truly did revive such an awful and schemey release.
    Also this video reminded me of so much but my favorite thing was the whisper or worm secrete mission. I still remember watching a UA-cam video about it and being so surprised because it took the community a few weeks to even discover there was a secrete mission in the game. It was so difficult that once I finished it was one of the best feelings I got playing the game :)

      There was one, singular, uno lost sector in Mercury. Come out of the spawn zone and head leftside towards the infinite forest gate and there it is. Infinite forest, had THE highest potential to expand the *TINY* patrol zone that was Mercury.. Like a procedurally generated lost sector / dungeon thing for you to dick around in, or an extension of the patrol zone but always different and you'd see other players opposite side of the map, on their own platforms or even just floating on nothing cause some vex shenanigans of the platforms not existing in your timeline reality whatever. Would've been cool but.. it would've required *work* from the developers' part.
