      I hate that they removed so much content from the game. I started playing at the very end of Witch Queen, so I can never experience those free expansions. The way seasons work is also annoying. Every past expansion is an incomplete product for new players because they already missed out on a substantial amount of content.
      Meanwhile in World of Warcraft you can play through every past expansion and they're free.

    I wonder if shadow keep should be made free and turned into the new light experience, it’s what 4 years old now. You start out on the cosmodrome make it to the tower then X NPC tells you there’s a disturbance on the moon go meet Eris, once you meet Eris the campaign starts and there could be new dialogue added to help explain the pyramid ships and the light vs dark conflict.
    Having a campaign would be good for new people it gives them a story to latch onto and follow to show/explain destiny’s light vs dark sage cause currently it can be very confusing story wise for new people.

    Now that I see it all in one video I realize that is more than I expected, it's a lot of different type of content that can help you understand if you like the game and if you are willing to buy the dlc to access even more content. I know that from the perspective of a "veteran" this could seem a quite small content pool, but think with the mind of a new player that has never played d2, you have so much different content that you could get lost not knowing what to do

    I really hope Bungie brings back past expansions including the Red War campaign. If Bungie is so worried about how much space it takes up in our consoles or PC, they should make them downloadable instead of all together, unless the player wishes to have all of them. It'd be a real shame if they don't bring it back after The Final Shape.

      Exactly , basically just end up doing strikes on repeat, gets boring quick and doesn’t keep new players wanting to come back. Bungie could also quit being stingy and start reducing prices quicker for older dlc.
      Ever since cross play and digitalization of games , prices for games/dlc have shot through the roof even on decade old games unfortunately. Games that used to be $1-5 at GameStop now are back to $30-50 in ms store, and even old dlc that used to go on sale now gets sold for premium prices even when there’s no players left playing them to get matches etc

    • @arbington
      @arbington Рік тому +8

      Actually not sure about PS Plus, but you don’t need Xbox Live Gold. Microsoft made it so any game which is free is totally free, you don’t have to pay for the subscription service to access the multiplayer. Good change, did it a year or so back. If Sony hasn’t done the same they need to get with the times, between this and their lack of support for cross-play and console modding I’ve found myself increasingly on Microsoft’s side and I never used to give a damn about the console wars.
      That said, even on Xbox you still have to buy an expansion or two if you actually want anything substantial to do in the game. My idea to fix that wouldn’t really be that hard. Already Bungie sometimes gives the community free access to expansion content for a month, usually before the next big release or before something gets vaulted. I think they just need to do that more often, it would be easy since they’re already infrequently doing it. Rather than maybe twice a year, just make it so one of the older expansions is always freely accessible for like a month and it just rotates which one.

      Right but not to access the game itself. Without Gold, you can play Crucible, Dares, Gambit, and run public events on the few planets available to you. And the stupid New Light campaign. Not much, but not nothing either. You also don’t need Gold to play any of the expansions, you just have to buy the expansions themselves. But you don’t need Gold to play Destiny 2 at all.

    • @arbington
      @arbington Рік тому +1

      You probably ought to take that up with customer service then. They’ve had this policy since April, 2021. Free-to-play games don’t require Gold to access their multiplayer functionalities. Shouldn’t anyway. I just read they even added like fifty other games to the exemption list that aren’t even all free-to-play last month. It should’ve worked for you. That said, Destiny 2 itself can be really buggy sometimes especially when it comes to the licensing on the DLC. I know for example I’ve had to jump through hoops to get it to recognize content sharing when one DLC I own on another account on my Xbox suddenly won’t register on my main account. Bungie even claims the game doesn’t support content sharing so they don’t have to fix it, but it does, it just doesn’t always work right. I could easily see it being some other issue beyond just Microsoft and your Ultimate subscription. Unfortunately Destiny be like that sometimes.

    So I switched to PC after being a console player for 15 years, I have all but iron lords on my ps4 account. I downloaded d2 on my pc and was basically a free player(expansions aren't transferable), it felt so empty. But watching your video makes me realize how much content this is for a new player, I'm just used to my cluttered destinations screen lol.

    If you were lucky to get the 30th Anniversary pack that Bungo gave away when Destiny 2 went available to Epic Games users. You got yourself sorted out in alot of content, since in lightfall alot of good weapons are world drops (f2p), or became available from past seasons. (not really sure of that one, prob DMT and Hawkmoon are locked to Beyond Light owners.)

  • @warmpereer65
    @warmpereer65 Рік тому

    As a f2p player since forsaken. The only thing you can do after finishing the tutroial stage are the following:
    - strikes
    -crucible except for trials
    -gambit
    -do your daily bounties to get seasonal exotic gun
    -legendary raids (vog and kings fall. back then you can access several raids but sadly they content vault them)
    -sometimes there are bugs that makes for free like dmt and hawkmoon for everyone. Just hope this thing happens again.
    - dares of eternity (back then they made 30th aniversary pact for free for epic games)
    But what sucks now is that you cannot get free weekly pinacel loot in the standard strike since some of them requires strand or stasis to use. unlike back then they also consider f2p by putting void solar or arc paired with stasis and strand

    My biggest recommendation for ftp players: watch and wait for sales, I get not wanting to pay $200 or whatever it is to get all the expansions, but they’re deeply discounted every once in a while, take advantage of that, the dlc’s add a lot to the game.

    I played Desteny 2 free to play for about a year, almost one and a half year ago, on my super old pc with win 7, then an update came and i could not run the game anymore until yesterday, when i finally bought a new pc and reinstalled the game again.
    When i played the game i explored all my options as a free to play player, i knew what is the content i cant play, but i played the game anyway because this game managed to build such a good gunplay that i could not get bored of trying out different guns and i love the lore and the sci fi/ horror environment.
    Maybe this time i will spend some money on the game, but if i dont, i know i will still enjoy the time i spend shooting aliens in it and have fun with the community events.
    Free to play is enjoyable if you focus on achievable goals instead of what you cant do in the game.

    I've played this game for, what, 3-4 years as a f2p player? I started when shadowkeep just dropped, but that's besides the point. 4 years of this game without paying a dime; it just goes to show how much Destiny has to offer. Granted, I did play on and off, but I kept coming back. There was always things to do, perhaps there was more back in the day like the whisper or the outbreak missions, but there's still plenty of content today as shown in the video. Even til today, after I've purchased some of the expansions, there are still so many things I haven't done. For those new lights out there, don't be mislead by the introduction quest. It sucks and it does a horrible job at showing people what this game has to offer, so stick with it for a little more past that and your time will be well compensated.

  • @Nazasu
    @Nazasu Рік тому +1

    That's honestly quite a lot of stuff f2p players can do. I think it'd be more rewarding for f2p is Bungie made Prophecy and one of the legacy raids a guaranteed pinnacle activity each week so they could get more higher stat gear. Though IIRC the nightfall wont let a f2p player select it for that week if its a strike they don't own the expansion for, which is a bummer. From what I've gathered and experienced, it's pretty hard for a f2p player to get a solid group together to run F2P only content. If only they had story content that was f2p and totally didn't just vault it... That'd never happen... Right?
    Anyways, great video! Was a fun and educational watch.

    A more comprehensive list of the FTP content:

    2. The prophecy dungeon, not a whole lot of good loot here bits it’s pretty fun.
    3. Crafting, mostly world drop stuff
    4. Legend/master lost sectors
    5. The first mission in the witch queen, shadow keep, beyond light, and lightfall campaigns
    6. All of the crucible
    7. Basic access to all current locations
    8. Vanguard ops playlist and (if it’s not a dlc strike that week) nightfalls and grandmasters
    9. Gambit, lmao
    10. Any world drop exotic
    This is all of the important stuff I can think of.
