4 Years of Destiny and Youtube - Datto's Destiny Retrospective & Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 тра 2017
- It's been 4 years since I opened up this channel and started covering Destiny. And with no more major changes coming to Destiny 1 (probably) and the Destiny 2 gameplay reveal a mere 3 days away, now's probably a good time to reflect on the past 4 years on youtube and 3 years of Destiny, starting from video number 1.
This is not so much a complete review of Destiny 1 over three years, but rather a retrospective of my experiences with Destiny and the channel.. I do talk about Destiny in the video though in a review style, but this isn't a video for someone who never played Destiny in the first place. For that, I would recommend SkillUp's Destiny 1 review much more than this video: • Destiny | The Final Re...
Also, I'd really like to do some 'reacting to old videos' ...videos, if that's cool with y'all. It's fun to go back and check out the old stuff to see how it's evolved.

This... This is a slice of history. Our history. But my god does it highlight how much of a miracle it is that Destiny's UA-cam community not only exists but is also filled with great people like Datto. :)
My name is byf. You're a fucking legend and hero. Thanks for all your great videos
Hi Byf
Sounds like a lore to me....•_•💜
Fantastic retrospective, I know I for one am glad that this game has led me to cross paths with yourself. And I'm sure all of your viewers or anyone that has used your videos for any purpose has been thankful to have you. The ups and downs are never fun, but I've got a feeling you're going to be cemented pretty well once Destiny 2 arrives. Here's to getting where you have, and to much much more!
Mr. Fruit Gaming Channel Senpai!
FRUUUIIT!! Reply?
Mr. Fruit Gaming Channel I love Datto, and I love your collabs together!
I hope your friendship lasts and flourishes.
Hey, fancy seeing you here
Mr. Fruit Gaming Channel hey my fruity beauty, fancy doing something like this for your 1 mil sub special? ;)
Anyone remember when his channel name was Datto Does Destiny
Levi Pwnz yeah this game suck so he changes his name to datto
shicaduech Debatable
?
As in, your exposition was subjective, and to a larger extent unnecessary
1'm K1nda 0k? Dude speak English please
“Destiny 2 is the final chance for Bungie to prove Destiny is worth our time.”
*lul*
hardfugoo ikr
Lmfaooo
If you're still playing it, then they get exactly what they want. If you play it, they see it as "worth your time".
We survived but dear tod D2 year one was trash
Great video Datto. Was awesome to see how your person journey and the Destiny journey intersected.
Many likes :)
Skill Up the review Channel looking at a destiny review, nice. Btw your nier review was great and was the reason why I bought the game.
Cheers mate- hope you loved it :P
You still have one of the best final reviews of D1 I have seen. Honestly watched this to see how it compared. Wasn't disappointed, but you hit them feels a little harder.
Skill Up Yes Datto is a Beast....
Skill Up Ha You rock too Bro. I pray that The Division gets some love soon. But hey, we Destiny 2 for now. Can't wait for you to cover it.
Watching at week 2 of season of opulence, for d2. a rough start, but destiny 2 has become quite the game. cant wait for shadowkeep.
Destiny 2 had a much better launch than Destiny.
Luciel 707 destiny 2 is so boring compared to destiny 1
@@scalychannel5897 I can't understand why you are saying that. Just objectively, D2 has way more content than everything released during the whole of D1, and has brought massive improvements over the board (meaningful ranked PvE, pinnacle weapons, the way seasons work, the current weapon system, the levelling system, overall encounter design, the more cohesive storylines, different farming loops like Menagerie, which is literally the best content across all of Destiny...) Maybe you are just tired of Destiny as a whole.
@@commentingchannel9776 I agree with everything you just said, except the menagerie part... I think Prison of Elders tops it just because I could play it for 5 or 6 hours without getting bored.
Commenting Channel idk maybe you’re right about being overall tired of it, because I played so much destiny 1. My issue with D2 is to me it doesn’t feel rewarding to level up or hint for s god roll etc
Duke Mk.44 was in the original 2013 E3? How time flies
17:10 some lucky guy got ghallarhorn for losing
McKay Lee imagine just chilling on destiny one night then out of fucking nowhere the G horn drops from a random crucible match I WOULD PAY GOOD MONEY TO SEE HIS REACTION!!!
McKay Lee back then when iron banner came out when pulse rifles ruled the crucible with shotguns and snipers being all there i was jokingly trying to prove a point that if you do nothing for one game of iron banner win/lose you’ll get something better than the guy who is in first place next thing you know the game ends and what do you know
My GT pops up saying i got ghallarhorn which was my second one and i was blown away i was joking when i said all that after that one the guys who i was friends with kicked me blocked me and i never talked to him again :/ but hey destiny 1 was truly fun in the long run :)
Vigorous Void lol we have the same profile pic what are the chances
Awesome video dude, and really great to get some insight on both the game and your channel + personal thoughts during each time period. I had much of the same feelings coming from a hardcore WoW raiding background; hoping for incredibly hard and longer raids. Although that wasn't what came, still incredibly happy with the game as an overall and looking forward to Destiny 2!
Does Eso reply?
ESO is the GOAT
Thanks for sticking around with us Datto! We appreciate ya!

watching this 2 weeks before forsaken for D2 drops.... oh boi how the cycle repeats itself
Watching this again in May 2019, just before season of opulence in destiny 2. What a journey. Who knew how far we’d fall at D2 launch, and how much of a recovery forsaken would be
Yep, me too ...
It was like d1 taken king all over again with d2 and forsaken but I have to admit warmind wasn't to bad EP and the weapons where good I just hates spire of stars lol excited to see shadowkeep
I really enjoyed this retrospective on your channel and Destiny as a whole. As a viewer, I have to say I deeply appreciate how transparent you are with the issues you went through building this channel. The honesty with things like the challenge modes and the underwhelming events is the reason why I exclusively come to you for anything Destiny related.
Thank you for originally convincing me to buy this game Datto. It's been a non-stop wave of disappointment since Beta c:
This retrospective reminded me a bit of the GameTrailer's retrospective video that they used to do (when they were around) of the old school games.
Who remember GT's retrospective on Zelda or Final Fantasy?
Rosie the Marauder Is the last line a joke cuz it made me feelbadman*

I don't usually hit the like button, because generally I will just be in UA-cam zone surfing through different videos, maybe liking the occasional one, but your content always feels different. I just want to like the video at the end each time because I feel like I have either learned something, or the video was worth my time and I appreciate the work that has gone into it. Awesome stuff datto, I have no doubts for your channel come Destiny 2, keep up the good work
Thanks very much.
Boy am I glad you didn't take the television job.
I believe that your continued success on UA-cam is not contributed to the inconsistencies of Destiny itself, but a showcase of your hard work and dedication. I have always enjoyed you videos and this one was fantastic! Keep up the great work and I wish you continued success with Destiny 2 and beyond. Thank You Datto!
Shut up simp
I loved everything about this video. Thanks for a great 4 years so far Datto
I'm for sure that you will hit 1 mil after d2 launch for couple of weeks .
It sucks the dpj almost has 1 mil and Datto only has 600k I'm sure he'll hit it one day though
Fish Outta Water Dpj's channel is dead tho, he gets like 30k viewers max
Fish Outta Water DpJ had over 300k when started uploading Destiny
GIgaming probably, but I know that Mr. Fruit will.
GreenImpact Hello from the future. Still no 1 mil oof
Can wait for his retrospective to D2
It’s shitty lol
It also helps that you are so respected by other streamers and UA-camrs. I had no idea about you except I kept hearing "Datto says..." and that made me seek out your content.
17:11 That guy got a Gjallarhorn from a crucible match
Yeah the good old days where you could keep your controller moving forward and get exotics from the end of the game
Destiny Legend Why play when coming in last got you the best rewards?
That's where I got my first Gally and freaked the FUCK out. I thought at the time you could only get them in Raids ....
I got the last word as my first exotic from the crucible in year 1. In my opinion it was the best gun in the whole game at the time other than pre-nerfed vex.
No you would use a rubber band and keep the move stick forward
Despite destiny's flaws, I still to this day believe it to be one of the most fun games to come out in recent memory. When it came out, I was really hoping for a halo meets borderlands type experience. I still think that would be the best aim for the series. As someone who hasn't played this game since the drought that followed the house of wolves launch, I truly enjoyed this video. I don't believe that I fully understand why this series seems to be so lacking in content. As the most expensive game to create of all time, the story should be epic and the universe vast. I have very high hopes for destiny 2. I'm going to buy it, but if it seems like an updated expansion or dlc, I'm probably going to be one of the many jumping on the message board to shit down bungie's windpipe. Keep doin you, datto. I just hope to God that this next game feels like an evolution.
heh about that
This was such a good overview of the past few years. Thanks for your dedication and for sticking with/putting up with us, Datto! We really appreciate it!
I never usually sit through long videos like this, I often skip around and watch a few minutes at a time, but I watched every minute of this this video. Fantastic retrospective Datto, and thanks for sticking with us.
This is probably my favorite datto video. Love the introspection.
Simp
Testify!!!! You were my first destiny channel I subbed too. I later found people like byf, miss5000watts, bluewestlow, mr fruit, teft and holtz all through you. So thank you man I consider you a key corner stone of the destiny community 💪🏽keep up the great work!!!!
This brought back so many memories, both from your channel and from Vanilla Destiny.
I've been here since Alpha, and I still look forward to your videos. I'm happy for you, Datto!
This video is so very interesting. Simply sharing your experience as a youtuber provide us with so many cool insights and new perspectives. Taking a different look on my experience as a Destiny player has never been easier. Thanks for taking the time to do this Datto, that's rare amongst public youtube content yet oh so invaluable.
Damn watching this after D2s struggle hurts.
Especially the end. But now that Bungie's free, who knows what is next?
Adrian Smith now we’re in the best endgame destiny could ever have.
Justin Kyke still isn’t as popular as destiny 1 tho
Shadowkeep was dog shit, no content just reskins, seasons are trash and boring, and this is all because of bungie not activision.
@@distantsea this aged well :(
My friends and I all appreciate the time you've spent making all of you videos. I only watch your content for PvE because I like your style, opinions, editing, humor, and especially learning. Being somebody who has VERY limited time to play all games, let alone Destiny, I'm not going to waste my time watching some who doesn't give good concise information and isn't honest. I don't normally share videos instead I'll just relay the information while we play but your quality is so good it makes it easier just to share. At this point my friends and family all watch your guides. Seriously though if anybody didn't subscribe after the blindfolded Croata kill smh. Keep up the hard work, I'm going to need those yellow background exotic guides for Destiny 2 among others for everything because I'm a filthy casual.
Hey Datto,
Thanks for all of the videos over the years, they've really been a great watch and the time you've put into them all is really inspiring. I look forward to seeing what Destiny 2 and the future of your channel has in store for us all. Keep fighting the good fight and I hope to see you starside.
You're very much appreciated in my Destiny experience - love your videos. I love even more that you've made it somewhat personal with talking about your struggles and a look into your move, etc. Good work man. I follow very few UA-camrs consistently, but you're one!
You i hope this doesnt sound like a backhanded compliment but this for me was your best video yet. The editing the sound and the structure of it was awesome and on point and loved all the views and video in the background. Look foreward to more like this.
Datto you have the best UA-cam Channel. Keep on
Watching this video 2 years into Destiny 2. Man it's crazy! How much has changed at first it was bad and finally starting to ramp up to be good again about 4 weeks into Shadowkeep
This is probably my favorite video that you've done. Personal, introspective and honest! Thanks for all the content! You'll always have a fan in me.
Destiny has horrible reception and is not recommended by many people. However, this does not change the fact that it is my all time favorite game. The community is great, and I've made many friends through Destiny. Playing the raids with all my friends is never boring. Sure, the mechanics will be the same every run, but every little thing we do differently is something to enjoy. Playing 3 years of Destiny was a great experience for me, and I support this game and Destiny 2. This video is a fantastic representation of what most of the Destiny community has been through, both through its ups and downs. I'm looking forward to Destiny 2 and I highly recommend everyone to play it. Thank you, Datto, for a fantastic video and for being here with us for the past 4 years.
Destiny was labeled average yet there was such a huge community on the game still 2 years on, something very few games can claim
Congrats datto on the 100 video, i cant wait to see you in destiny 2. Thank you so much for sticking it out and continuously making great and helpful videos. Your channel had been one of my favorites, be with you until the end.
Very interesting and nice of you to share both the good and bad times you had during this last years. I wish you all the good luck you deserve! Hopefully you will keep on making top quality breakdown videos once D2 is out!
Datto droppin' that 1k video bombshell at the end like 💥
Watching this after Forsaken is just, wow. What a roller coaster.
Really glad you made this. Your humble attitude and transparency is really refreshing.
Fantastic video Datto! I loved seeing your journey and hearing the ups and downs you've experienced. You are by far my favorite UA-camr. It started as just because of the quality and amount of info in each of your videos, but it did become because of you and your personality. I now will watch any video you put out, regardless of what the content is. Thank you for all of your time teaching and entertaining us, and I look forward to the future of your channel.
Watching this after Destiny 2.
*IT’S WORSE*
Yup. Although its getting there. Slowly, albeit.
There is still hope.... (please, loot randomization, please)
Go D1
Destiny 2 at launch up to Curse of Osiris may have seemed bad but it was certainly better than Destiny at launch. Although it don’t seem so, it had improvements that vanilla destiny 1 didn’t have. Yeah they removed random rolls and it was more casual but since Destiny 2 is building off of D1 and along with Forsaken coming out in September, the game will be in a better spot.
Knute Johnson forsaken is bringing back random rolls , a complete overhaul to the weapon slots , weapon mods , gear and a whole bunch of stuff. 9 new supers. A lot of good stuff
I don't like that much videos but I really agree with what u have to say about the destiny adventure... congrats on 1000 and congrats on what's to come!
Thank you datto for making amazing content for the last 4 years I've been watching. I watch a lot of UA-cam, and your videos are by far the most thought out and well made. I watch every one of your videos, because I enjoy it. Even if I already know what xur is selling. Even if I already know how to get a certain exotic. I still watch them all. You always have such a good attitude and edit them so well, the info on screen about certain weapons and subclasses is very nice to have, it shows that you spend time on a lot of your videos. Congrats on 1k vids and I can't wait for another 1 thousand 😀
Datto, I've been watching your content ever since the beginning and all I have to say is, thank you. Honestly, thank you. Watching your videos throughout my Destiny experience has really been a highlight. From helping me find that last calcified fragment to listening to the number breakdowns of TTK on TLW and Thorn, the help you have provided, no just for me, has been invaluable. Whatever format you choose going forward I'll still watch with open eyes and ears. May the dattoLeg be forever propped!
Also, I'm pretty sure you were the first to find out the quest for Outbreak Prime and _some_ people didn't like that because they're salty...
32:50 aand they didn't.
Yep season 10 is worst
Can you still do some of the TTT videos? At least on the other channel. Kind of liked those videos.
me too. lots of laughs
I'm so glad things work out for your UA-cam. You work super hard for it. I hope that you have an even bigger success in D2
Grats Datto. Been here since almost Day One of Destiny and I have, and will continue, to support you whatever you do xx
Sometimes, I wish I could do more than just like a video :/
Blamed? I would thank you for changing the thorn/shotgun meta XD
Gavin Zimmerman I only get flustered when remembering this change because all updates affect pve! thorn was a beast in pve, a totally viable choice. Now its junk, that resembles, more of a peashooter than a handcannon.
Meh that's just a Bungie problem, I'm just glad Thorn is nearly gone in pvp. It's still usable, just not super popular.
I always found very few instances where having an exotic primary in PVE was a better option than one in the secondary or heavy slot, especially back then when elemental legendary primaries were still a thing.
+radwyer86 you are 100% correct. IMO that is just a false narrative from pve players that resent the fact that they are not very good at pvp.
really enjoyed watching your journey through destiny in one video keep up the amazing in depth videos! can't wait to see what great things the future holds
Great channel Datto. This/you have been one of my go to channels for Destiny content ever since I saw your first VoG raid guide.
Keep up the great work. With D2 on the horizon and a happier Datto in your new apartment long may you keep guiding us through this world that we are all addicted to now.
Man, coming back to this video after the D2/CoO launch is uh... pretty interesting, to say the least.
love the vid datto
Holy crap Datto. 1000th video. Your journey through UA-cam and Destiny has been one I have enjoyed so god damn much to be a part of, and this video was just so satisfying to watch. I can't wait to see you in Destiny 2
I think this is the best Destiny video I've watched in Destiny's three-year lifespan, and I hope you go on to great things Datto!
If only you knew what would have happend to Destiny 2
Being here from d2 forsaken makes me appreciate it a lot lmao
I think this is my favorite video you have ever made in all the good or bad points in destiny's history, hopefully we have more great things to come in destiny 2 and beyond
Excellent Timing on this video Datto. Perfect for getting all of us ready for the Destiny 2 gameplay reveal tomorrow, and a reminder of the awesome and terrible times with Bungie's grand experiment of an MMO
The last bit of this video didn't age well 😂 personally still playing D1 as I still think it's in a better place than D2 now
also....... do you appreciate my positive rating on your 1000th vid...?
Congrats on all your success! You are one of only 2 channels I go to as soon as I get notified of a new video. I really appreciate your passion for the game, and your fantastic videos. GG!
I loved your personal journey. It feels so raw and real. You bet I'm coming for every upload
Hey Datto, I was here for your first Destiny Video.. can't beleive this was already 4 years ago!? Unfortunately I unsubbed when I lost interest in the game and moved on... Sorry! I hope you can forgive me and accept my resub for Destiny 2 comming up -.-
did you unsub again after Bungie released the worst game of all time?
Usman Zubair nah, destiny 2 may be bad but the worst game I’ve EVER seen was sea of thieves (recent)
Its Red Sky sea of thieves is more fun
Godly unsung Hero hahahahahahha no. Sea of thieves is singlehandedly one of the worst games ever. The only good thing about it is the water
Its Red Sky No it isnt that's such a ridiculous and bold claim its hilarious. It's a fun game there just isnt much to do doesnt make it even close to a worst game of all time. One of the games with the least amount of content would be more accurate.
Watching this after D2 forsaken that’s how lost I am
Been there since the beginning, and I'll be there until the end. You're so genuine and I always love your high-quality videos (even non-Destiny content)
Thanks for sticking around Dato! Your vids have made a huge influence on how I and my raid team attack just about everything in Destiny.
(On a side note, I enjoyed the extra non-Destiny vids too. Especially the party games, like Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes!)
I absolutely adore this video. Well done Datto I couldn't agree more about the disappointing game
He's right, the game was disappointing because it was rushed. I bet they're rushing Destiny 2 aswell.
I thought the game was a disappointment because it had no story, the reason why it had no story, Bungie sacked Joe Staten. If they are rushing D2 were in deep!! They have had enough time and resources to complete the game (btw it should have been out last year) So D2 has to be good otherwise Bungie is in Deep .....
badbadfull I heard about a destiny sequel after the game launched,So I don't think they have rushed it,destinys story was scrapped and redone
You realize he praise TTK, right?
I met my future wife on Destiny, I am thankful for this game :)
Damn, that's some wholesome shit.
Late congrats!
Joooeeey Damn lmao
Awesome video, made me feel pretty nostalgic! This has, like you said, against all odds been a part of my life for 4 years... I can't believe I've spent 1600 hours into a game. Thanks for making great content Datto, helping many like myself within the Destiny community.
Your humble attitude towards your channel and other people has always kept me coming back to your videos. Keep it up Datto, we will see you in D2
Who’s rewatching after The Dawning 17-18
Datto carried destiny :)
Datto you're a legend. your guides carried my team through so many late night raid runs. Thank you, Guardian.
This was a great video datto! Felt so much nostalgia with you going through destinys time line.
also oooooooh is that new music i hear?
Christian van den Born fab christian
Strike score leaderboards in game would be great.
I loved this Datto. Destiny has changed lives and also yours. Amazing how things can go. Great video man!
Keep it up man. You have been my favorite Destiny UA-camr since year one. Love your insights and opinions. So happy to see that you are finally working for your happiness and only wish good things for you going forward.
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh weeeeeeeeeeee
I hear you.
Von Faulks who do you hear
xXVORTEXx Datto had a long journey to get to this point.
Have always loved your Destiny content Datto, keep it up with D2, I'll be here cheering you on and looking for those fantastic tutorials!
this video is everything I've ever thought about destiny summed up into 34 mins lol great vid datto. keep on trucking man. we will all keep watching.
0:25 Lost Sector logo lol
Hi from the future. Destiny 2...rip channel.
Hayabusa09 Hi from the far future. Forsaken...it’s amazing
Jacob Wright that shit overrated as shit
4 years and datto is still kicking. absolutely love the content man. keep it up
Your the man Datto. Always look forward to your Destiny videos! Been watching since Y1 and u are part of my daily routine. Look forward to your D2 coverage, excitement and expertise.
Bungie made 3 steps forward during D1 and about 30 backward on D2....yikes
14:50 I guess they never miss huh?
It is such a riot to watch this on 5/29/18. We are now in the middle of Destiny 2 and your recap of the "life of Destiny 1" could be the EXACT SAME THING for Destiny 2 with just the names being changed. Appreciate the thoughts, analysis and great videos. Keep up the great work.
man, I didn't realize how early I had subscribed to you Datto lol
I still remember gorging over the first subclass videos and freaking out over all of your coverage as I wasn't able to play until the Beta. Good memories man, happy to see where you've come~
Am I the only one here that doesn't want destiny to go FULL MMO like WoW? I just think destiny won't be and feel like destiny if it would be that way :/
ONLY TRUE FANS WATCHED THE ENTIRE VIDEO!
Fantastic video, thanks for putting time into giving us your perspective of these few years!!
Man I can’t believe it’s been this long... Datto you’ve come along way and have always been a good source of content that kept it straightforward. No click bait bullshit , no speculation data mining etc. love it. Thank you. Thank you for staying your path
