I think the reason destiny 2 wasn’t quite as good as it should’ve been was because bungie worked on the feedback of gaming news and critics but not the actual fans
Energy Vanquish yeah and I’m glad they have I really am it just seemed like the transition from destiny 1 year 3 to destiny 2 was fixing problems that only critics had like “too much of a grind” that’s why we don’t have random rolls anymore
12:53 Angry Joe was also firing an Auto Rifle like a Scout Rifle, one bullet at a time, in PvE and PvP. He is the last person whose opinion I take seriously when it comes to Destiny, no offense.
Byf! Thank you for sticking with this community. I wanted to let you know that your videos are once again my gateway back into this universe as these changes come out.
This has me pretty excited. I'm ready to shoot lasers and do the anime move. One thing about the subclass talk is that there should be one "new" element in Destiny's universe that makes sense, pure Light. All the elements in one favored towards the Light. Either way, the barons are interesting ranks because that implies Archons and Kells. It's also unknown whether these Scorn are allied with House Dusk. There's also the knowledge that the Scorn are enemies but what about the House of Dusk? There's a major Fallen that isn't one of the barons. He's in a cutscene (interestingly, the one with Petra in it). He's talking to us. Is this a hint of an alliance? Is this the mysterious Kell of Kings, assuming he's alive? Is that a new faction? Also the whole lore triumph thing is pretty exciting. An archive is great. Glad to see some of that feedback hit. A brief thing, hopefully they add in the grimoire. There are things in D2 that initially contradict it, but only a select few will ALWAYS go against it. This is an opportunity to get into the "combination" way of thinking that I've always taken. Speaking of Taken... There's quite a bit in there. Glad I can get more of their music because they're my favorite on that front.
Tyler Wolfguard were the speculations that Byf would stop his crying and jump on the bandwagon of positivity towards D2 as he pretends he never bitched for many many many videos? Or were they of Byf pretending that he knows more about the Frdtiny lore than the guys who dreamed up this universe and acting all self righteous when something happens that isn’t what he wants and isn’t refuted anywhere but he asserts his way is the only way?
As a D1, year 1, day 1 player I can honestly say I'm so happy with what's happening and I think the community is in a huge state of relief about forsaken. I honestly think they ticked every box there was so I can't wait to see how all of this unfolds. Hopefully it'll be a good one 🤞
I Polaris I Same. I've been playing since D1 day 1 and watching the game grow to the monolith it was by the end of Rise of Iron was amazing and then to see it fall to the low it is currently at was heartbreaking. High hopes Forsaken fixes the problems and brings us back to where we were. Higher hopes they don't make the same mistake with vanilla D3.
Justin Ammerman I think D3 will be the best yet. They know what we want and have proven (in the reveal) that they listen and provide. The main reason D2's launch was a fail is because the lead director was changed half way through making it, causing the current build of D2 to be scrapped. By this time Bungie only had about 2 years to make D2, why it failed. This should not happen in the making of D3 so hopefully it will be great.
I Polaris I Im Not day 1 but I joined up not too long after launch and all the D2 players see me as some kind of old nerd lol. We’re the grandpas and grandmas of this community now.
Only thing that scares me is the cost of forsaken plus the new pass. Especially since we dont know what kind of content size to expect from the releases in the pass.
Sort of. They’ve had community fly out to play it and even with the little they’ve shown us, I think it’s clear that there is substance behind those words.
I’m a little concerned about how they said that the Dreaming City won’t be the same at launch compared to say, a week later. Like, is it going to actually “change” or is it going to change the order of the encounters.
Poplop IsNotDead they said that is the Raid with the biggest number of bosses they've done. Assuming that they'll not put all of them together, the Raid will change, not only the order of encounters. Just speculation though!
Ryan Darbon right??? We found osiris, why can’t he teach us a new subclass from the forth element? Unless... they’re building up to it? Maybe for destiny 3...???
Jesse Nguyen I wouldn’t be opposed to that at all. If they were to do it, it would be walking on eggshells. they’d have to absolutely NAIL it but it would still be manageable. Could you imagine if someone from the darkness tried communicating with us and tried bringing us to the dark side (like in star wars) and taught us the ways of the dark. Maybe we get lost in the infinite forest somewhere with zero communication with the city and get trapped with the darkness and they teach us their ways... that would be unreal. there we learn to channel our dark powers instead of light, and at the end of the game we could choose to either stay with the darkness or go back to the light. an inner struggle, and character depth. something a true rpg would have. Like KOTOR.
Ryan Darbon it could be possible. A lot of old speculation and rumor has been true but delayed or moved around (rise of iron, destiny 2, i forgot what exotic was delayed...) and there was rumor of a necromancer warlock subclass... maybe the technology can’t quite hit their vision yet... until next gen...? Random thought: i’m kinda hoping the new path for sentinel and dawnblade is a super (hehe) updated/hybridized defender and sunsinger... maybe a full fledged firebird path where ur a flying fireball throwing explosive grenades; a defender with blessings *gasp* a sentinel roaming force bubble where u just bash into ppl o.o
Thanks for all your hard work. I watch your videos regularly, and you're my one stop shop for Destiny lore and news. Your passion is clearly demonstrated. Well done!
I reaaaaaallllllly want this to be good. But Bungie has not shown me enough to warrant my purchase. They’ve been losing a lot of goodwill lately, and it sucks. I like the theme, I’m hoping the story mode and PvE content is a little more in depth. I really think it’s time for the PvE/Lore community to get serviced, seeing as they’ve been doing a lot of catering to the PvP community. I like the new super ideas and the hints at the weapon system, but there are still things that I want to see from this before I throw down my $40. This E3 Presentation has to wow us. And I really hope this expansion can bring D2 back from its slumber. It’s time for this universe to take the next step, instead of taking steps back.
Hey byf, regarding to the weapon system: it seems like there are shotguns that go into the primary slot, shotguns that go into the special slot and shotguns that go into the heavy slot. You can see that when he equips three shotguns, there is one with a white symbol one with a green symbol and a purple one wich would mean they won't share ammo. That's really nice because it lets you develop your own playstyle and I'm very excited about it :)
Was I the only one who was happy to hear byf being so happy and geeking out around 13:55 to 14:07. That's the passion for destiny I want to hear from everyone after this expansion.
Daniel Biancalana Unfortunately the Warlock exclusive sword isn't special at all, just an ordinary sword, but I would be down to have that and my RAZE LIGHTER bungie pls
PurpleTrident Well, me personally I would like dark drinker, since every other bloody sword is a Razelighter. But your warlock exclusive sword is a nice defensive tool, thing soaks up damage if ammo is available.
PurpleTrident Yeah, I mean don't feel too left out. Quickfang may be fast but you need to be real fucking close almost all the damn time. And you better hope your damn reticule isn't off by an inch or the connection is a little jumpy, then you just hit nothing but air.
Hey, My Name Is Byf! I just wanted to say, you are fantastic. I know your work here on your channel is not solely your own. You give credit where credit is due, and that just adds to it. I haven’t picked up D2 since mid-COO, partially because of life stuff/busyness, partially because I got to the point my grind was producing little fruit, given I couldn’t commit to raiding and am not a strong PVP player. Decent, not strong. But your videos have kept me interested, and now this expansion is looking exciting. Anyway, I got on a bit of a tangent. I just wanted to encourage you to continue doing what you’re doing. Your presentation, your style of speech, the whole thing is great. Your my favorite lorekeeper and source for Destiny-related news, and for as long as the franchise has any discernible pulse, I hope you continue being on the front lines man! So now, I guess it’s just about time I give this Warmind expac a shot.... 😅
I’m sorta 50/50 with this strategy. Destiny’s only fun the first month or so when everyone hops on but then again it could be another waste to preorder
PurpleTrident Nah he theorised the map as a raid encounter (loosely based on some WoW raid design), but bungie ended up using a very similar design for one of their strikes
Jacob Kern The only one I'm aware of is the strike with the Harpy boss in the middle and the rotating walls. Datto had said something like that would be a good raid design, and Bungie used the same concept as a strike.
The two first dlcs especially Osiris were a "little" lackluster. Two "raids" which in my opinion are unexcusable to be as short as they were for a dlc. The season pass wasn't cheap and although 40 dollars for an expansion is large it is justified. Now even more for this other season pass? That's a tad excessive. There might even be dlc sprinkled throughout. But then again this is bungie and Activision. They've got the balls to sell an emote for ten bucks.
The DLC looks amazing but that price tag! Jeeez Edit: I'm still gonna buy it, my only worry is the annual pass. 10 dollars per update seems a bit steep, we'lll have to see how much content their offering
ToxicMachine1 says someone who probably doesn't have to earn the money himself. 70 dollars for the entirety of forsaken and the seasonal release is a substantial amount. 40 is alright for just the dlc.
Loopaz 1337 if you look at a 2 sections in the vid you see a solar warlock slam his sword in the ground, in another bit u see him do it with a red bubble (like defender titan) ill see if I can find it again and time stamp it.
I maintain you can be hype for this and still be cautious. I'm super hyped but know to wait a bit. I'd say just hold off on the season pass til after launch cause it just makes sense to me. Just my opinion.
I didn't want them to ABANDON story, i wanted them to make better stories that incorporated more of the actual deeper lore IN GAME. Now if that's what they end up doing, and I'm just missing out on some "We got this Sempai!" cheese cutscenes, oh well, I'll live. But if the lore continues to remain so separate from what we're doing in the game, AND at the same time they go back to the D1 model of just a bunch of unconnected missions with no central theme or narrative, then I don't care how good the loot is because no REASON to care. Story/lore/whatever is what separates a game like this from PUBG/Fornite/whatever. Without that context, without that reason to care about the loot and the progression, folks like me will continue to just not care about the game
I totally respect that. Like the loot and grind will always be enough for me, but in such a large lore filled universe, if theres no context to that in what im killing and earning, then you're right, why should you care.
This is actually making me excited again to play destiny. I only played D2 off and on a week at a time. I hope this addition will keep me on board for months at a time. I'm so excited
Byf I’ve actually submitted that archive on the feedback on the bungie forums a multitude of time. I’m sure others did as well so hopefully that archive idea is exactly what they said.
The Real Cactoos It's not really DLC. Honestly it just seems like paid seasonal content which is something that I thought Eververse was supposed to provide
My biggest question now honestly is what will be the situation for Destiny 3? Will it respect the previous titles? Will it wipe the slate clean? Will it actually be a sequel, or will we be back to (almost) square one like we were for Destiny 2's release? 'cause for me it doesn't matter how good this expansion is. it could be better than TTK. But if it's going to be essentially null and void with what it brings to the table by the time D3 comes around; then why should I invest my time and passion, and money?
Ö _ I had this idea where at the end of destiny 2, the darkness wins the battle and it’s basically the beginning of the red war all over again but worse. It would also take all 4 years for the base game to end
This is more than likely going to save destiny 2, there's so many things that blew me away from the big things such as 9 new supers or the smaller things like the collection and triumphs tab and even with the annual pass (which I'm hesitant about) i believe this is exactly what destiny needs, I've been playing destiny since year 1 of destiny 1 and this all looks amazing to me
Looking fwd to seeing how Destiny handles a bow vs Warframe. (Which, I can’t believe @Byf didn’t mention that bows are yet one more way in which Destiny is copying Warframe.)
Freaking A.. I'm excited. Maybe I'll run into @mynameisbyf at E3.. as an older guardian and fan of lore, it's always wonderful to hear your take. Hope I can get a pic with one of my favorite content creators..
omensoffate I really don't get fans like you...Did Alex C say anything hateful?NOPE! he's worried...because come on...look at bungies track record..the fact that people are already saying that this is the best and it's going to save Destiny...well it's fucking stupid, I like Destiny but come on. BE realistic here!
I wasn't hating, I just think its a bit too soon to be jumping on the hype train just based on trailer snippets and devs briefly mentioning changes. I expected the reaction to be more hesitant, especially after showing the Annual Pass.
While your theory on ammo consumptions across different weapon types (I, II, III) sounds about right. The shotguns in the stream, however, did have different icons for Primary, Special, Heavy. The first shotgun had 1 bullet (guessing it refers to kinetic), the second had 2 bullets (meaning it is an elemental weapon), and so on. So maybe, ammo is shared only between the same type (kinetic, special, power) but you can ideally have a weapon with all 3 variants.
As a d1 vanilla player I have been there through its downs as well as it’s up sides. I admit I quit playing when Osiris launched after about a month in because I got bored. Then warmind dropped and I started getting back into it. And now if they deliver with this new content I will be back to destiny 100%. My faith has been restored.
OH I'M SO HYPE. This really restored my faith in the future of Destiny, and it looks really promising in terms of new features and content in general! I'm so happy about the collection system!
Byf,15:52 If you check out the moment where a ward of dawn is popped in the new game mode, you can see a Sunlock jam his sword into the ground next to him. I think this is either the new super or a special move(like a rift edit). Based on how bungie does video they proably wanted to show the defender titan and sunlock working together. This makes me excited because it seems like a support type subclass which i've always wanted sunsinger to focus more on. Though i hope they bring sunsinger back in name somehow because its always pissed me off that they retconed Sunsingers.
I had an idea for Destiny. What if, the next major DLC after Forsaken, was called something like "The Cleansing" or maybe a similar title. Let's face it, humanity is fucked. A good 90% is under the traveller, in a Chicago-sized city. And we still have the threat of whatever the fuck those ships were at the end cutscene of the vanilla game, after the traveller woke up. So! This DLC would be about cleansing Earth, and taking it back from the Fallen, Taken, Hive, and Cabal. We would explore and "cleanse" every bit of the planet, except for the swamps of Old Chicago, and the Plaguelands. That's where the ships come in. They'll come and land in Chicago and Russia, and start trying to corrupt the world we had nearly finished cleansing. They'll also attack Jupiter, and it's moon, Europa. They'll attack Neptune, Venus, and the Dwarf planet, Ceres. These planets can be added in D3 as the base planets, or slowly over time in D2. Doesn't matter to me. In my image, D2 will end after we cleanse Earth entirely. Eris will come back to help us when the ships arrive on Earth, and she can be the main NPC of the DLC. I want it to end in a cutscene with a conversation between the Vanguard, Eris, you, and Hawthorne. And I want Zavala to finally snap. I want him to get so pissed about the constant invasions, that the very last cutscene of D2, will be him yelling at Ikora and Hawthorne, (whom want to stay on Earth and focus on the planet we have just taken back) and I want him to say something along the lines of; "NO! I'M DONE BEING PUSHED BACK! I'M TIRED OF LOSING SO MANY INNOCENT LIVES IN THESE INVASIONS FROM OUR ENEMIES! It's time we take our solar system back. It's time we take the fight.... To them!" To which, Cayde will add to by saying "This is a beautiful moment. Does anyone have a camera? I want to get a picture of the day Zavala started speaking my language!"
Hiiper Nova Yeah, um, about Cayde... Anyways, I think the third expansion will be about Savathun and killing her in a raid, it better be. I don’t mind the tentacle porn butthole in Forsaken as a mission boss nor Ghaul, they kind of sucked in power anyways, how did we lose the Tower? Why did we all die at the same time and all exactly started at level 100? Wtf Vanguard. Anyways, we better be able to kill Savathun
Pot-8-Toe we probably won’t be killing savathun in year two, and as there isn’t another comet expansion coming for destiny 2 I assume that the year 3 annual pass will be about savathun.
Somthing I've found interesting about all this is the fact that while this is clearly a Fallen themed DLC, not once in the entire reveal did I see a Servitor. Now the Fallen use Servitors for the transmutation of Ether for their growth and consumption, so what if these 'Scorn' found a way to transmute it without them? We know Ether stimulates growth within the Fallen, as can be seen in how they use it to regrow docked limbs and how it can increase the size of an Eliksni tenfold. Ether is scarce because Servitors are also scarce, and seemingly pretty slow, so most of the Fallen get by on extremely small amounts. If the Scorn found a way to transmute it freely then they could have as much as they could possibly want. If you look at them, they're pretty much all horribly disfigured. A lot of them have bulging muscles and growths bursting out of their skin, and some of them have even been malformed into something akin to a Hive Ogre. Since Ether stimulates tissue growth within in the Fallen, what if extremely rapid consumption led to all these mutations and malformations? It would explain all the strange new shapes and sizes these Eliksni come in, as well as their extremely increased aggression. So in summary, this entire DLC is just us fighting against a big gang of super jacked up Fallen with some really intense roid rage, by the looks of things.
Everything we had up to Watkins should've been in D1. Now this DlC should've been the start of D2. Enemies dark souls style Interesting supers. Actual change impact change
It just makes me happy to see it's not like the curse of Osiris but also ever since I've been apart of your channel the lore the reason this is that or who did what fills my need to learn and play I never was good at fps my friend showed me destiny and even when he's burnt out I go on so in short I'm just dedicated and ready for another chapter and I hope to hear about the secrets and deep lore you find byf
Love the idea of retrieving The Grimoire from D1 as a quest make out they thought it lost when the tower fell but rumour has it in the hands of the enemy or something. I also hope that there is a lot of lore to get - some of my friends saw that number and thought it was too much but I think the more the better. Can't wait.
I think getting a physical grimoire to look at in-game is an awesome idea. I'd like to see a little addendum in there too, detailing all of our Guardian's encounters with the big bads of D1, kind of like a Triumph's page and kind of like the first time veterans loaded up D2. To give new players an idea about how we're supposed to be some of the baddest mothertruckers around. Grimoire about US would be pretty cool in my opinion. (Or maybe even just put it in there as a little easter egg for veteran players?)
Psht, and I’m just over here wishing I could have a fallen playable character as my guardian... their are good fallen. Why can’t I play as one of their races?! Pls
Charnt Sabre If this was a better MMO, we would get new races and have things like race based talents. Like have one that is more mystically intune, one that is stronger (physical attacks do more damage), and faster. It would make people build characters based on that AND the class the class they are going. If you wanted a hard hitting Titan or a swift Hunter, you could do that
Listen to the radio comms at drop points. You hear Sloan make a comment about fallen allies and how absurd she thinks it is, presumably talking to Zavala.
Madam Wizard the only issue would be that fallen can't be guardians so it might be unbalanced since they won't have the same power and the hit box might be a pain when in pvp
Yeah, and it's stupid. I hope that Bungie acts on the many people telling them that, because that would show that they do still care. Something they really need to show us.
You didn't have to pay for the season pass in year 2 tho. I'm fine with it being a bundle or having to buy everything separate or whatever but having to also pay for the bundle AND the season pass, which is probably gonna be garbage like sparrow racing again, is not ok with me since we got all that stuff, albeit trash, for free last time. If you're gonna release trash, at least let it be free.
What type of content is it going to be though? What if the "content drop" is garbage for 2 of the 3 seasons? Then what does bungie refund my money? No. Can I buy the good one by itself? Nope sorry. I don't know where you get this idea that it's NOT SRL becuase it very well could be for one, and two, in my mind if it's not at LEAST a raid like activity, then I'll pass. All I'm saying is if this stuff is garbage, and I have a feeling it is, then I'm not going to buy it. BUT knowing my luck they'll release something that makes it impossible to get to max rank without having this season pass, BUT all the other stuff will blow dicks like SRL 3.0 or a Valentines day special.
For the people here saying that they did this in Destiny 1, that is exactly the problem. We let that happen in Destiny 1 and despite the fact that it was stupid no one cared because that was the Bungie we trusted to give us good content. If we keep sending them the message that we as a player base are going to let stuff like this happen and not give feedback against it then it is going to happen again. If Forsaken manages to get me back into Destiny, then I will be happy, but I don't want Bungie to take that as a sign that they can make the exact same mistake as in D1 and D2 again. Release an unfinished game, then fix it later, and make people pay more in order to have the somewhat finished product.
Honestly, I'm really stoked for this! This is basically giving people EXACTLY what they've been asking for and then some! Good changes comes with time and effort, and I'm glad that we've gotten this at all.
Cheer emote to you, Bungie. If we were playing together, something that would appear in the chat thing, where it says "so and so found legendary engram," it would say, "(insert username) cheers for bungietv," then "(insert username) has bungietv's back." You made destiny 2 great again.
at about 15:47 I believe we get a peak at the new dawnblade: support class focused on planting the blade and doing something? the sword gets planted and then a symbol pops up on it
True Paul but you know what they say about a fool and his money. Destiny proves that people have no concept of getting quality for their initial dollars and that people will continue to spend until they get that quality. I did it with D1, I've learned my lesson and moved on.
Kingstyles05 That's good. I myself have seen that Bungie has not or did not intend to incentive me to buy destiny 2 along they intended to just keep me away and that is what they have done.
Are we as a destiny community really about to allow this distinct injustice to occur, its bad enough to have to spend $100 on a game that shipped in a broken, half assed state plus an additional $60 for the expansion pass. but for them to have the audacity to ask us to blindly follow them and cough up a further $60 in hopes of the game being resurrected through forsaken, not forgetting that it’s mandatory for you to own the previous “expansions” in order to play this “new game experience” bringing the tally up to an astronomical $220 (aud) is just astounding to me. what bungie should be focusing on now is refining the destiny experience for all of us destiny lovers and releasing “expansion “ freely for being able to constantly and consistently let down their player base, whats been forsaken here is not the game, nor cayde but rather we as supporters for bungie. I implore you to rethink your business strategy bungie cause there’s only so much support you can receive until people give up all faith. sincerely a disappointed supporter. Enough is enough. for how much longer are we going to be stuck in the same perpetual cycle of succumbing to the hype and proceeding to buy whatever content they dish out at us like mindless drones, how much longer are we going to act like we forgot the previous problems within the game, the same problems that led us down this path of discontentment' only to be let down once again. I plead to you my fellow guardian to join me in making a stand, copy and paste this until the voiceless,the silent majority, me and you. Until were finally heard! Stand up for what is right, even if you stand alone!- Suzy Kassem #forsakenedguardians
I'm trying not to be hyped, but dear lord it's hard. I love Destiny since day one, Destiny 2 deceived me on a lot of things, but man, Warmind got me back on the train and I fell in love with the game again and now this expension. The Reef, the Awoken, THE FREAKING DREAMING CITY WHO LOOKS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I can't wait for September.
Where. Is. *VARIKS*

Probably Final Shape too: 👀
I think the reason destiny 2 wasn’t quite as good as it should’ve been was because bungie worked on the feedback of gaming news and critics but not the actual fans
Well, Destiny is one game that I'm confident that won't go SJW anymore.
Can i post this on the forum? Im gonna do it anyway so... ill give you credit dont worry
Schweeby well they have been listening they’re giving us what we asked for
Energy Vanquish yeah and I’m glad they have I really am it just seemed like the transition from destiny 1 year 3 to destiny 2 was fixing problems that only critics had like “too much of a grind” that’s why we don’t have random rolls anymore
Amen, brother.
12:53 Angry Joe was also firing an Auto Rifle like a Scout Rifle, one bullet at a time, in PvE and PvP. He is the last person whose opinion I take seriously when it comes to Destiny, no offense.
lorcan0c Fair call.
lorcan0c I’ll never forget when he thought a respawn entrance was unfinished graphics😂😂😂

Byf! Thank you for sticking with this community. I wanted to let you know that your videos are once again my gateway back into this universe as these changes come out.
David Samuel back at it again!
I love this man
Don't we all.
Who wouldn’t
Love that guy

Warlocks get kamehameha?
Warlock master race indeed
The question is, can we have a beam struggle
And instant transmission, it seems :P
Petra is on the left monitor at 2:45 in the reveal video. It’s a bald female awoken that has her eyepatch
Forcer finally someone else noticed this
Hello again Forcer :P
My name is Byf hi, you finally swapping to team stormcaller?
Forcer Hunters were Otakus.
Warlocks become full-on Weeaboo.
Forcer even content creators are picking up on this meme xD
This has me pretty excited. I'm ready to shoot lasers and do the anime move. One thing about the subclass talk is that there should be one "new" element in Destiny's universe that makes sense, pure Light. All the elements in one favored towards the Light.
Either way, the barons are interesting ranks because that implies Archons and Kells. It's also unknown whether these Scorn are allied with House Dusk. There's also the knowledge that the Scorn are enemies but what about the House of Dusk? There's a major Fallen that isn't one of the barons. He's in a cutscene (interestingly, the one with Petra in it). He's talking to us. Is this a hint of an alliance? Is this the mysterious Kell of Kings, assuming he's alive? Is that a new faction?
Also the whole lore triumph thing is pretty exciting. An archive is great. Glad to see some of that feedback hit. A brief thing, hopefully they add in the grimoire. There are things in D2 that initially contradict it, but only a select few will ALWAYS go against it. This is an opportunity to get into the "combination" way of thinking that I've always taken.
Speaking of Taken... There's quite a bit in there. Glad I can get more of their music because they're my favorite on that front.
Dude, they totally took your triumphs idea. 😂
All in all I'm happy with how this looks. And I'm looking forward to all the new lore vids!
The sniper baron really seems to remind me of The End. I hope you know what I mean.
Snake! You've caused a time paradox!
Ahhhh metal gear.....good shit.
Haha, Byf is so happy. And hey, i was right in my speculations from the last vid.
Tyler Wolfguard were the speculations that Byf would stop his crying and jump on the bandwagon of positivity towards D2 as he pretends he never bitched for many many many videos? Or were they of Byf pretending that he knows more about the Frdtiny lore than the guys who dreamed up this universe and acting all self righteous when something happens that isn’t what he wants and isn’t refuted anywhere but he asserts his way is the only way?
As a D1, year 1, day 1 player I can honestly say I'm so happy with what's happening and I think the community is in a huge state of relief about forsaken. I honestly think they ticked every box there was so I can't wait to see how all of this unfolds. Hopefully it'll be a good one 🤞
I Polaris I Same. I've been playing since D1 day 1 and watching the game grow to the monolith it was by the end of Rise of Iron was amazing and then to see it fall to the low it is currently at was heartbreaking. High hopes Forsaken fixes the problems and brings us back to where we were. Higher hopes they don't make the same mistake with vanilla D3.
Justin Ammerman I think D3 will be the best yet. They know what we want and have proven (in the reveal) that they listen and provide. The main reason D2's launch was a fail is because the lead director was changed half way through making it, causing the current build of D2 to be scrapped. By this time Bungie only had about 2 years to make D2, why it failed. This should not happen in the making of D3 so hopefully it will be great.
I Polaris I Im Not day 1 but I joined up not too long after launch and all the D2 players see me as some kind of old nerd lol. We’re the grandpas and grandmas of this community now.
We have to wait for the story, it is looking good though
PC PastaFace yep, the old wise men from ancient times
I haven't played a Destiny game since The taken king, but a bow ??? You got me
Simon Ewenczyk u missed roi and i guess warmind. The rest was pretty bad, welcome back though.
Why didnt you play RoI? That was a really good expansion
Simon Ewenczyk YOU MISSED ROI?!?!? I feel sorry for you
Simon Ewenczyk time to be a true hunter
JustARandomAccount I switched from Xbox 360 from PS4 ans didn't have the will to do everything again unfortunately !
Can we please have our guardian speak? Please? The exo voices were great
They have now cut out story/cinematic elements from the game. The chances of them re-adding character voices back in at this point are almost zero. :(
Hey you got your wish after all!
legoboy468 I suppose so.
Only thing that scares me is the cost of forsaken plus the new pass.
Especially since we dont know what kind of content size to expect from the releases in the pass.
ImASillyName then just buy the forsaken only
I read polygon that it's going to cost 69.99 that includes forsaken and the annual pass
Anna Graham but you can just bye forsaken and then see how the first expanison goes then get that
jaden No ones complaining he’s just stating his worries.
I don't like that those update passes can raise the light cap
“They killed you, kill them back” - Variks the cool guy, also “SPHYCHOLOK THE DEFILLED!!!”
Keep in mind: most of the key points from the reveal were WORDS. We know the "what," but we don't know the "how."
Brady Pierce ??? I don’t get it
Brady Pierce You deserve an upvote!
Sort of. They’ve had community fly out to play it and even with the little they’ve shown us, I think it’s clear that there is substance behind those words.
I understand but we’ll have to wait and see how it unfolds
Appreciate the professional, level-headed approach to this. That's why you're the best.
They have bows! I'm hyped for once!
I’m gonna use an auto. Bow and sniper.
Also this is the first time Warlocks have good supers it’s my time to shine.
The new character gear page looks straight out of your proposed UI video
Simsema89 he had his triumphs and lore on the far left of the clan menu
You cant really mention AngryJoe in this case because he doesn't play Destiny 1 or D2 beyond the first few weeks.
If this dlc fails I’m done
I’m waiting for the suckers to buy it first.
If bungie released a VIdoc for it, its gonna be good
Micah McElhaney damn right imma buy it all
Nick-_- Barr we are all gone if it's fail
You probably said that for warmind too, but you’re still here
3 handcannons with lucky pants
Just..
THANK YOU BUNGIE!
Felix Maidens 3 smgs with mechas holster...huckleberry, antiope and a third good smg
An actual bow and arrow, but darn September 4, spider man is coming out that month
Sentinel Prime I believe ESO summerset, also comes out for console in Sept. On top of Spyro remake, and shadow of the tomb raider. Ffffffffffff
AlucardRenji what? Summerset came out like 3hours ago
Sentinel Prime for console???
Sentinel Prime schools: come back in August, game developers: release all the games in September
AlucardRenji yes and PC released like 2 weeks ago
Love hearing the excitement in your voice, Byf. Keep up the excellent work.
I’m a little concerned about how they said that the Dreaming City won’t be the same at launch compared to say, a week later. Like, is it going to actually “change” or is it going to change the order of the encounters.
Poplop IsNotDead they say it like the actual area will change.
Poplop IsNotDead they said that is the Raid with the biggest number of bosses they've done. Assuming that they'll not put all of them together, the Raid will change, not only the order of encounters. Just speculation though!
Poplop IsNotDead the dreaming city isn’t just a raid. It’s a second patrol area.
Poplop IsNotDead they mean as in the actual area will change
wow like we havent heard that from the first DLC... whatever, theres a full new raid so Im happy
#BringBackGrimoireScore
Pretty excited for Forsaken, the changes alone sound awesome. Let's see if it pans out to be all its made up to be.
FD04 Streams dude I’m excited for the subclass changes. Like you can tell bungie poured ALOT of energy into doing this right
Lol you say that now wait till it's actually out and see how many people are gonna be disappointed.
If this works out, its exactly what this game NEEDS to start getting out of the hole that Bungie has dug
Andres Tapia let's just wait until it's out before saying it's doomed, okay?
In game, Ikora questions if there is actually is a fourth element as part of her ambient text...
Hemlock I still want them to add a “Darkness” subclass and have a full expansion and year of temptations from the Darkness
Ryan Darbon right??? We found osiris, why can’t he teach us a new subclass from the forth element? Unless... they’re building up to it? Maybe for destiny 3...???
Jesse Nguyen I wouldn’t be opposed to that at all. If they were to do it, it would be walking on eggshells. they’d have to absolutely NAIL it but it would still be manageable. Could you imagine if someone from the darkness tried communicating with us and tried bringing us to the dark side (like in star wars) and taught us the ways of the dark. Maybe we get lost in the infinite forest somewhere with zero communication with the city and get trapped with the darkness and they teach us their ways... that would be unreal. there we learn to channel our dark powers instead of light, and at the end of the game we could choose to either stay with the darkness or go back to the light. an inner struggle, and character depth. something a true rpg would have. Like KOTOR.
Ryan Darbon it could be possible. A lot of old speculation and rumor has been true but delayed or moved around (rise of iron, destiny 2, i forgot what exotic was delayed...) and there was rumor of a necromancer warlock subclass... maybe the technology can’t quite hit their vision yet... until next gen...? Random thought: i’m kinda hoping the new path for sentinel and dawnblade is a super (hehe) updated/hybridized defender and sunsinger... maybe a full fledged firebird path where ur a flying fireball throwing explosive grenades; a defender with blessings *gasp* a sentinel roaming force bubble where u just bash into ppl o.o
If I had to guess, the next element could be Frost/Ice or something.
Hype levels are beyond the acceptable limit right now
ConfusedRealm I'm right there with u
ConfusedRealm yep yep
Thanks for all your hard work. I watch your videos regularly, and you're my one stop shop for Destiny lore and news. Your passion is clearly demonstrated. Well done!
I reaaaaaallllllly want this to be good. But Bungie has not shown me enough to warrant my purchase. They’ve been losing a lot of goodwill lately, and it sucks. I like the theme, I’m hoping the story mode and PvE content is a little more in depth. I really think it’s time for the PvE/Lore community to get serviced, seeing as they’ve been doing a lot of catering to the PvP community. I like the new super ideas and the hints at the weapon system, but there are still things that I want to see from this before I throw down my $40.
This E3 Presentation has to wow us. And I really hope this expansion can bring D2 back from its slumber. It’s time for this universe to take the next step, instead of taking steps back.
kidbrawler They're now catering to the Players, not the Reviewers or Casuals, but the PLAYERS.
Which is good, because the Taken King.
Hey byf, regarding to the weapon system: it seems like there are shotguns that go into the primary slot, shotguns that go into the special slot and shotguns that go into the heavy slot. You can see that when he equips three shotguns, there is one with a white symbol one with a green symbol and a purple one wich would mean they won't share ammo. That's really nice because it lets you develop your own playstyle and I'm very excited about it :)
Destiny 2: Legolas edition
Isolation 117 Hell ya! xD
Isolation 117 Where your characters are all Nightstalkers!
My hope is it'll be more like Arrow.
Was I the only one who was happy to hear byf being so happy and geeking out around 13:55 to 14:07. That's the passion for destiny I want to hear from everyone after this expansion.
So if I can equip 3 shotguns?..
CAN I EQUIP 3 SWORDS?
Oh my lord. I don't see the point in that, but sign me up!
PurpleTrident
Quickfang, It Stared Back, insert new exotic sword. Imma happy Hunter
Daniel Biancalana Unfortunately the Warlock exclusive sword isn't special at all, just an ordinary sword, but I would be down to have that and my RAZE LIGHTER bungie pls
PurpleTrident
Well, me personally I would like dark drinker, since every other bloody sword is a Razelighter. But your warlock exclusive sword is a nice defensive tool, thing soaks up damage if ammo is available.
PurpleTrident
Yeah, I mean don't feel too left out. Quickfang may be fast but you need to be real fucking close almost all the damn time. And you better hope your damn reticule isn't off by an inch or the connection is a little jumpy, then you just hit nothing but air.
Hey, My Name Is Byf! I just wanted to say, you are fantastic. I know your work here on your channel is not solely your own. You give credit where credit is due, and that just adds to it. I haven’t picked up D2 since mid-COO, partially because of life stuff/busyness, partially because I got to the point my grind was producing little fruit, given I couldn’t commit to raiding and am not a strong PVP player. Decent, not strong. But your videos have kept me interested, and now this expansion is looking exciting.
Anyway, I got on a bit of a tangent. I just wanted to encourage you to continue doing what you’re doing. Your presentation, your style of speech, the whole thing is great. Your my favorite lorekeeper and source for Destiny-related news, and for as long as the franchise has any discernible pulse, I hope you continue being on the front lines man!
So now, I guess it’s just about time I give this Warmind expac a shot.... 😅
Still going to wait till a week or two after it launches.
No more pre-ordering for Destiny. I've been burnt one to many times
Reese Oliver that’s a wise thing to do, you won’t lose much if you don’t preorder
Reese Oliver they can take my monaaayyy
I'll pre order it and play it day 1. There is nothing like a new Destiny experience. I have enjoyed all of the DLC in d1 & 2
Id wait a few months at least. This game is trash
I’m sorta 50/50 with this strategy. Destiny’s only fun the first month or so when everyone hops on but then again it could be another waste to preorder
Looking go forward to coming back to this video in a year and seeing how much/little Bungie actually delivered on this hype from Byf (Byfhype?)
TRIPLE HANDCANNONS MOTHER FRICKAS
kulsnipr 76 Yeeee boiiiiii hahaha
Hehehehe
kulsnipr 76 Triple Swords.
Now.
Let the Gladitorial Combat begin.
kulsnipr 76
Nah man Triple bow in this bitch
kulsnipr 76 yes thorn , hawkmoon and last word 👀
I’m not necessarily happy to need to effectively completely rebuy the game to get another year of play out of it but it does look promising.
11:46 déjà vu lol
Datto, nearly 3 years ago: "Did Bungie use my raid design?"
Strike design*
PurpleTrident Nah he theorised the map as a raid encounter (loosely based on some WoW raid design), but bungie ended up using a very similar design for one of their strikes
Lascan You're right, I forgot he intended the design to be a raid, but it was added as a strike.
PurpleTrident No, he's talking about the "Naxxramas in Destiny" videos, not the Vex raid boss he came up with (which was eerily similar to Theosyion).
Jacob Kern The only one I'm aware of is the strike with the Harpy boss in the middle and the rotating walls. Datto had said something like that would be a good raid design, and Bungie used the same concept as a strike.
The two first dlcs especially Osiris were a "little" lackluster. Two "raids" which in my opinion are unexcusable to be as short as they were for a dlc. The season pass wasn't cheap and although 40 dollars for an expansion is large it is justified. Now even more for this other season pass? That's a tad excessive. There might even be dlc sprinkled throughout. But then again this is bungie and Activision. They've got the balls to sell an emote for ten bucks.
The DLC looks amazing but that price tag! Jeeez
Edit: I'm still gonna buy it, my only worry is the annual pass. 10 dollars per update seems a bit steep, we'lll have to see how much content their offering
Davros Concord it’s not that
Much
omensoffate it's 40 bucks...and if you want more its 19 bucks for a DLC season pass..
Nat Great $40 isn’t that much
the same price as taken king came out..... nothing new or just go out and make some money
ToxicMachine1 says someone who probably doesn't have to earn the money himself. 70 dollars for the entirety of forsaken and the seasonal release is a substantial amount. 40 is alright for just the dlc.
Straight up, best intro to a Byf video. Ever
I HOPE THE DAWNBLADE ONE IS RADIANCE WITH SELF REVIVE
Loopaz 1337 and no one will like Warlocks in their raid teams anymore.
Loopaz 1337 if you look at a 2 sections in the vid you see a solar warlock slam his sword in the ground, in another bit u see him do it with a red bubble (like defender titan) ill see if I can find it again and time stamp it.
The Real Cactoos self rez is good for raids
God I hope so
15:55 I just noticed defender titan there too, but the warlock puts his sword in the ground and the bubble is red, so...... Maybe a bubble no idea.
Does anyone else get happy when byf gets happy? It’s contagious, and I’m pretty excited for forsaken now.
I'll say it again, anytime i'm playing as warlock, i'm yelling Kamehameha any time i fire my super no matter what i'm doing or who i'm playing with.
GrowlingScarab7 LOL
GrowlingScarab7 DAMN RIGHT SON!
GrowlingScarab7 I'm finally goku in destiny
You are literaly me since i started playing the game. But in my case, i say: "UNLIMITED POWEEEEEEER"
full on palpatine feels
In the reveal they said there will be more bosses in the raid than any raid before
That intro! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Automatic thumbs up! 😂😂😂
Maximum edgy hunter build: two swords and bow. Edgy armor and dead orbit shaders.
Perfect
I maintain you can be hype for this and still be cautious. I'm super hyped but know to wait a bit. I'd say just hold off on the season pass til after launch cause it just makes sense to me. Just my opinion.
Haven't bought a single DLC for Destiny 2 but I still watch your channel Byf! Keep it up Lore Master!
I didn't want them to ABANDON story, i wanted them to make better stories that incorporated more of the actual deeper lore IN GAME. Now if that's what they end up doing, and I'm just missing out on some "We got this Sempai!" cheese cutscenes, oh well, I'll live. But if the lore continues to remain so separate from what we're doing in the game, AND at the same time they go back to the D1 model of just a bunch of unconnected missions with no central theme or narrative, then I don't care how good the loot is because no REASON to care. Story/lore/whatever is what separates a game like this from PUBG/Fornite/whatever. Without that context, without that reason to care about the loot and the progression, folks like me will continue to just not care about the game
I totally respect that. Like the loot and grind will always be enough for me, but in such a large lore filled universe, if theres no context to that in what im killing and earning, then you're right, why should you care.
This is actually making me excited again to play destiny. I only played D2 off and on a week at a time. I hope this addition will keep me on board for months at a time. I'm so excited
I will wait until after September to consider purchasing the expansion.
Kevin Wessels will pre-order 3 for every platform 😂
You always manage to deliver Byf
Destiny 2 Foreskin : The Cut Content
Byf I’ve actually submitted that archive on the feedback on the bungie forums a multitude of time.
I’m sure others did as well so hopefully that archive idea is exactly what they said.
Personally I can only see the Annual Pass as a cash grab. So far that's keeping my expectations in check
Mithrax The Forsaken well, it's ten dollars for each "DLC".
Mithrax The Forsaken cool story bro?
The Real Cactoos It's not really DLC. Honestly it just seems like paid seasonal content which is something that I thought Eververse was supposed to provide
Mithrax The Forsaken The annual pass is $30 for 3 mini-DLCs. They are not required whatsoever. You buy them or you don't. It's not a cash grab.
haydenaa A worth it
Its great to hear Byf excited about D2 again
My biggest question now honestly is what will be the situation for Destiny 3? Will it respect the previous titles? Will it wipe the slate clean? Will it actually be a sequel, or will we be back to (almost) square one like we were for Destiny 2's release?
'cause for me it doesn't matter how good this expansion is. it could be better than TTK. But if it's going to be essentially null and void with what it brings to the table by the time D3 comes around; then why should I invest my time and passion, and money?
Ö _ I had this idea where at the end of destiny 2, the darkness wins the battle and it’s basically the beginning of the red war all over again but worse. It would also take all 4 years for the base game to end
Byf's voice is so nostalgic for me it brings a tear to my eye
Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me, this time I'm waiting till the hype dies down
Aithan Ruiz K
Aithan Ruiz?
This is more than likely going to save destiny 2, there's so many things that blew me away from the big things such as 9 new supers or the smaller things like the collection and triumphs tab and even with the annual pass (which I'm hesitant about) i believe this is exactly what destiny needs, I've been playing destiny since year 1 of destiny 1 and this all looks amazing to me
Am I the only one HYPED for a BOW?!?!
W-R-S-A LOVETHNXNOODLETDM we all long to embrace our inner legolas .
W-R-S-A LOVETHNXNOODLETDM Bow, Tex mechanica handcannon and a sniper 👌 perfect loadout
W-R-S-A LOVETHNXNOODLETDM No. You are not.
Looking fwd to seeing how Destiny handles a bow vs Warframe. (Which, I can’t believe @Byf didn’t mention that bows are yet one more way in which Destiny is copying Warframe.)
Tim Curtin its nothing like warframe tho?? You do know warframe isn’t the only game with bows in it right and it isn’t even a FPS.
Freaking A.. I'm excited. Maybe I'll run into @mynameisbyf at E3.. as an older guardian and fan of lore, it's always wonderful to hear your take. Hope I can get a pic with one of my favorite content creators..
The fact that people are already on the hype train concerns me.
Alex C it’s cool to hate on Bungie huh?
omensoffate I really don't get fans like you...Did Alex C say anything hateful?NOPE! he's worried...because come on...look at bungies track record..the fact that people are already saying that this is the best and it's going to save Destiny...well it's fucking stupid, I like Destiny but come on. BE realistic here!
Alex C it is but at the same time a lot of people are desperate for the destiny the love in their minds
I wasn't hating, I just think its a bit too soon to be jumping on the hype train just based on trailer snippets and devs briefly mentioning changes. I expected the reaction to be more hesitant, especially after showing the Annual Pass.
People are gonna jump on the bandwagon regardless. Im hopeful but sceptical.
While your theory on ammo consumptions across different weapon types (I, II, III) sounds about right. The shotguns in the stream, however, did have different icons for Primary, Special, Heavy. The first shotgun had 1 bullet (guessing it refers to kinetic), the second had 2 bullets (meaning it is an elemental weapon), and so on. So maybe, ammo is shared only between the same type (kinetic, special, power) but you can ideally have a weapon with all 3 variants.
I'm mostly happy about an ALL NEW RAID and not a layer
As a d1 vanilla player I have been there through its downs as well as it’s up sides. I admit I quit playing when Osiris launched after about a month in because I got bored. Then warmind dropped and I started getting back into it. And now if they deliver with this new content I will be back to destiny 100%. My faith has been restored.
All the prison of elders' bosses have escaped?
psYlOCkE tHE DeFilED
OH I'M SO HYPE. This really restored my faith in the future of Destiny, and it looks really promising in terms of new features and content in general! I'm so happy about the collection system!
It best be good for that kind of pricing!
Byf,15:52 If you check out the moment where a ward of dawn is popped in the new game mode, you can see a Sunlock jam his sword into the ground next to him. I think this is either the new super or a special move(like a rift edit). Based on how bungie does video they proably wanted to show the defender titan and sunlock working together. This makes me excited because it seems like a support type subclass which i've always wanted sunsinger to focus more on. Though i hope they bring sunsinger back in name somehow because its always pissed me off that they retconed Sunsingers.
I had an idea for Destiny.
What if, the next major DLC after Forsaken, was called something like "The Cleansing" or maybe a similar title.
Let's face it, humanity is fucked. A good 90% is under the traveller, in a Chicago-sized city. And we still have the threat of whatever the fuck those ships were at the end cutscene of the vanilla game, after the traveller woke up.
So! This DLC would be about cleansing Earth, and taking it back from the Fallen, Taken, Hive, and Cabal. We would explore and "cleanse" every bit of the planet, except for the swamps of Old Chicago, and the Plaguelands.
That's where the ships come in. They'll come and land in Chicago and Russia, and start trying to corrupt the world we had nearly finished cleansing. They'll also attack Jupiter, and it's moon, Europa. They'll attack Neptune, Venus, and the Dwarf planet, Ceres. These planets can be added in D3 as the base planets, or slowly over time in D2. Doesn't matter to me.
In my image, D2 will end after we cleanse Earth entirely. Eris will come back to help us when the ships arrive on Earth, and she can be the main NPC of the DLC. I want it to end in a cutscene with a conversation between the Vanguard, Eris, you, and Hawthorne. And I want Zavala to finally snap. I want him to get so pissed about the constant invasions, that the very last cutscene of D2, will be him yelling at Ikora and Hawthorne, (whom want to stay on Earth and focus on the planet we have just taken back) and I want him to say something along the lines of;
"NO! I'M DONE BEING PUSHED BACK! I'M TIRED OF LOSING SO MANY INNOCENT LIVES IN THESE INVASIONS FROM OUR ENEMIES! It's time we take our solar system back. It's time we take the fight.... To them!"
To which, Cayde will add to by saying "This is a beautiful moment. Does anyone have a camera? I want to get a picture of the day Zavala started speaking my language!"
Nova Fox Gaming i totally agree
I love the Cayde response you added.
Hiiper Nova Yeah, um, about Cayde...
Anyways, I think the third expansion will be about Savathun and killing her in a raid, it better be. I don’t mind the tentacle porn butthole in Forsaken as a mission boss nor Ghaul, they kind of sucked in power anyways, how did we lose the Tower? Why did we all die at the same time and all exactly started at level 100? Wtf Vanguard. Anyways, we better be able to kill Savathun
Pot-8-Toe we probably won’t be killing savathun in year two, and as there isn’t another comet expansion coming for destiny 2 I assume that the year 3 annual pass will be about savathun.
BYF!!!! I'm flying to LA on monday for E3. It would be awesome to meet you at the show!
Why can't we just have an in game grimoire system, like an actual library that catalogues all of the grimoire cards
AJ Kolawole because we’re getting it....
Because that would make too much sense.
AJ Kolawole id they did that it’d be nice if it had a voice reading it too as well as a auto play feature
Energy Vanquish like in Mass Effect? That actually would be nice, yes.
Now what we really need in that new tab is a link to Byf's channel so that new players can REALLY delve into the story and learn bout' the game!!
I feel like I have too much faith in bungie rn. Looks dope tho
Somthing I've found interesting about all this is the fact that while this is clearly a Fallen themed DLC, not once in the entire reveal did I see a Servitor.
Now the Fallen use Servitors for the transmutation of Ether for their growth and consumption, so what if these 'Scorn' found a way to transmute it without them? We know Ether stimulates growth within the Fallen, as can be seen in how they use it to regrow docked limbs and how it can increase the size of an Eliksni tenfold.
Ether is scarce because Servitors are also scarce, and seemingly pretty slow, so most of the Fallen get by on extremely small amounts. If the Scorn found a way to transmute it freely then they could have as much as they could possibly want.
If you look at them, they're pretty much all horribly disfigured. A lot of them have bulging muscles and growths bursting out of their skin, and some of them have even been malformed into something akin to a Hive Ogre. Since Ether stimulates tissue growth within in the Fallen, what if extremely rapid consumption led to all these mutations and malformations? It would explain all the strange new shapes and sizes these Eliksni come in, as well as their extremely increased aggression.
So in summary, this entire DLC is just us fighting against a big gang of super jacked up Fallen with some really intense roid rage, by the looks of things.
Everything we had up to Watkins should've been in D1. Now this DlC should've been the start of D2.
Enemies dark souls style
Interesting supers. Actual change impact change
It just makes me happy to see it's not like the curse of Osiris but also ever since I've been apart of your channel the lore the reason this is that or who did what fills my need to learn and play I never was good at fps my friend showed me destiny and even when he's burnt out I go on so in short I'm just dedicated and ready for another chapter and I hope to hear about the secrets and deep lore you find byf
Can’t wait for esoterickk to solo nightfall’s with 3 shotguns
CosmicKitten10 Oh my goodness that'll be fun to do and watch!
This is why I like your channel Byf..You don't bitch about the game. You just give your thoughts on it
Gimme the Last Word bungo cmaaahn
Love the idea of retrieving The Grimoire from D1 as a quest make out they thought it lost when the tower fell but rumour has it in the hands of the enemy or something. I also hope that there is a lot of lore to get - some of my friends saw that number and thought it was too much but I think the more the better. Can't wait.
At 14:55 THE HUNTER IS HOLDING THE THORN!
Alejandro Matheu holy shit
I’m so fucking ready
No shit Sherlock.
Alejandro Matheu it’s not the thorn
Alejandro Matheu fucking hell
I think getting a physical grimoire to look at in-game is an awesome idea. I'd like to see a little addendum in there too, detailing all of our Guardian's encounters with the big bads of D1, kind of like a Triumph's page and kind of like the first time veterans loaded up D2. To give new players an idea about how we're supposed to be some of the baddest mothertruckers around. Grimoire about US would be pretty cool in my opinion. (Or maybe even just put it in there as a little easter egg for veteran players?)
Psht, and I’m just over here wishing I could have a fallen playable character as my guardian... their are good fallen. Why can’t I play as one of their races?! Pls
that would be dope
Charnt Sabre If this was a better MMO, we would get new races and have things like race based talents. Like have one that is more mystically intune, one that is stronger (physical attacks do more damage), and faster. It would make people build characters based on that AND the class the class they are going. If you wanted a hard hitting Titan or a swift Hunter, you could do that
vids2002 Yes!! Someone shares my vision!!
Listen to the radio comms at drop points. You hear Sloan make a comment about fallen allies and how absurd she thinks it is, presumably talking to Zavala.
Madam Wizard the only issue would be that fallen can't be guardians so it might be unbalanced since they won't have the same power and the hit box might be a pain when in pvp
I am very happy with this reveal, as you said a little faith restored. Looking forward to new memories with old friends.
Wait so do you have to have D2 and both expansions just to play forsaken?
Yeah, and it's stupid. I hope that Bungie acts on the many people telling them that, because that would show that they do still care. Something they really need to show us.
That’s what they did in d1 also so why you mad
You didn't have to pay for the season pass in year 2 tho. I'm fine with it being a bundle or having to buy everything separate or whatever but having to also pay for the bundle AND the season pass, which is probably gonna be garbage like sparrow racing again, is not ok with me since we got all that stuff, albeit trash, for free last time. If you're gonna release trash, at least let it be free.
What type of content is it going to be though? What if the "content drop" is garbage for 2 of the 3 seasons? Then what does bungie refund my money? No. Can I buy the good one by itself? Nope sorry. I don't know where you get this idea that it's NOT SRL becuase it very well could be for one, and two, in my mind if it's not at LEAST a raid like activity, then I'll pass. All I'm saying is if this stuff is garbage, and I have a feeling it is, then I'm not going to buy it. BUT knowing my luck they'll release something that makes it impossible to get to max rank without having this season pass, BUT all the other stuff will blow dicks like SRL 3.0 or a Valentines day special.
For the people here saying that they did this in Destiny 1, that is exactly the problem. We let that happen in Destiny 1 and despite the fact that it was stupid no one cared because that was the Bungie we trusted to give us good content. If we keep sending them the message that we as a player base are going to let stuff like this happen and not give feedback against it then it is going to happen again. If Forsaken manages to get me back into Destiny, then I will be happy, but I don't want Bungie to take that as a sign that they can make the exact same mistake as in D1 and D2 again. Release an unfinished game, then fix it later, and make people pay more in order to have the somewhat finished product.
Honestly, I'm really stoked for this!
This is basically giving people EXACTLY what they've been asking for and then some! Good changes comes with time and effort, and I'm glad that we've gotten this at all.
Cheer emote to you, Bungie. If we were playing together, something that would appear in the chat thing, where it says "so and so found legendary engram," it would say, "(insert username) cheers for bungietv," then "(insert username) has bungietv's back." You made destiny 2 great again.
at about 15:47 I believe we get a peak at the new dawnblade: support class focused on planting the blade and doing something?
the sword gets planted and then a symbol pops up on it
This all should have been in the game at the beginning of the launch of the game.

True Paul but you know what they say about a fool and his money. Destiny proves that people have no concept of getting quality for their initial dollars and that people will continue to spend until they get that quality. I did it with D1, I've learned my lesson and moved on.
Kingstyles05 That's good. I myself have seen that Bungie has not or did not intend to incentive me to buy destiny 2 along they intended to just keep me away and that is what they have done.
Are we as a destiny community really about to allow this distinct injustice to occur, its bad enough to have to spend $100 on a game that shipped in a broken, half assed state plus an additional $60 for the expansion pass. but for them to have the audacity to ask us to blindly follow them and cough up a further $60 in hopes of the game being resurrected through forsaken, not forgetting that it’s mandatory for you to own the previous “expansions” in order to play this “new game experience” bringing the tally up to an astronomical $220 (aud) is just astounding to me. what bungie should be focusing on now is refining the destiny experience for all of us destiny lovers and releasing “expansion “ freely for being able to constantly and consistently let down their player base, whats been forsaken here is not the game, nor cayde but rather we as supporters for bungie. I implore you to rethink your business strategy bungie cause there’s only so much support you can receive until people give up all faith. sincerely a disappointed supporter.
Enough is enough. for how much longer are we going to be stuck in the same perpetual cycle of succumbing to the hype and proceeding to buy whatever content they dish out at us like mindless drones, how much longer are we going to act like we forgot the previous problems within the game, the same problems that led us down this path of discontentment' only to be let down once again. I plead to you my fellow guardian to join me in making a stand, copy and paste this until the voiceless,the silent majority, me and you. Until were finally heard!
Stand up for what is right, even if you stand alone!- Suzy Kassem

I'm trying not to be hyped, but dear lord it's hard. I love Destiny since day one, Destiny 2 deceived me on a lot of things, but man, Warmind got me back on the train and I fell in love with the game again and now this expension. The Reef, the Awoken, THE FREAKING DREAMING CITY WHO LOOKS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I can't wait for September.
