Whoever did the music for these epic moments deserves a raise! Oh wait...
😂
I know this music send chills down my spine!!... this is sad for new people and old..
the raise was getting laid off :D ;(
😂 excellent comment
@@coffeejunkies8576rip Micheal sechrist
music is legendary, whoever fired the composers has no idea what they've done. i spent hours in orbit listening to it in the background
Upper management almost never knows the employees working at their companies. Higher ups probably looked at all these great employee’s names on a piece of paper/file and went “woah their pay and bonuses + unvested shares are really high, we could make a ton off laying them off!”
I went on Glassdoor recently and looked at reviews of Bungie. Found out the company has a terrible bro culture where employees who are buddies with those in upper management are disproportionately liked and promoted while on average being way worse workers than fellow employees. So what now has happened is 100 great employees have been laid off while those who are bros with upper management and do nothing to help the company have likely since had pay raises following the layoffs along with potential promotions and greater bonuses on the table.
For these reasons, I cannot believe that the Final Shape will be “as good as Forsaken/Taken King” considering the lack of an official delay being confirmed. This along with other breaking points such as reselling my unclaimed Worthy cosmetics at a 970% markup rate along with ever growing eververse prices along with samey seasons and uninteresting loot have led me to under no circumstances ever buy the final shape.
As far as I’m concerned, I don’t care whether or not others choose to buy the final shape as it is their wallet but as a destiny player since December 2015, I feel my points are valid and worth considering.
I’m not religious, but amen brother

D1 is so nostalgic, the music and the memories
peak destiny
So much better than shitstain 2
So many people in the Destiny community always say D1 is nolstalgic to the point I think ppl dont actually know the meaning of the word lol. No one ever says D2 is nolstalgic. Before u start typing, ppl were saying D1 was nolstalgic 1 yr into D2 so technically by that logic we should also be nolstalgic for D2 Yrs 1-3 too and yet no one ever says that. I dont think its nolstalgic I just think the game was better in a lot of ways especailly the artstyle and overall grounded universe.
@@stealthhunter6998 You haven't seen people say they're nostalgic for Forsaken??? get out from under that rock dude lmfao
@@bambampewpew32 No I haven’t actually. I’ve seen people say it’s their favourite expansion though.
Yearly reminder that replacing the red war with new light was downright criminal
I miss my tank missions..
Having the missions/quests to regain your light and get all the subclasses get replaced by a monumental grind and a mountain of glimmer is one of the worst changes Bungie has ever made
@@fissilepear7805 Do you not remember the grind to unlock the subclass nodes? xD
And then they ask why new players don’t want to play Destiny when the introduction to the game is a shitty experience.
I'm kind of amazed when new lights actually stick with the game tbh. Made a titan for fun and ran through that intro, and straight up wondered would ground a new player in this universe? Bungie should make at least Shadowkeep for free for new players.
All major addon/seasonal cutscenes should be available in-game from timeline tab, not just 50 min compilation on YT.
this video would add 1 whole GB to the game alone lol but I agree. Should add the entirety
adding those would be stripping 10 guns maybe and a whole planet area , is it really worth it when u can watch it on youtube ? 1gb is ALOT when it comes to destiny since the game is on its limtis of space
@@khaled_asunsetting like justification to bring old guns back as seasonal content. Videos aren't that huge in size that they can't do it.
Personally what I was thinking like a new game, free, and designed to bring all the campaigns in both Destiny 1 and 2, along with the seasonal stories remade to be more cinematic to quickly explain the story in the past, and giving small but meaningful rewards in Destiny 2 for each campaign completed.
@@hahahadeath1974alongside with bringing D1 gamemodes and D2 seasonal playlist, with all previous seasonal activities in it rotating like in exotic playlist. At the same time changes to monetization, where the only paid content in seasons would be cosmetic battle pass.
Yeah, too good to be real.
Man this takes me back to junior year of high-school when this came out. Unlocking those skill trees , exploring the locations,getting my fisrt random rolled gun....... its crazy how much time has lapsed since then.....I know bungie is in a bad spot right now but destiny 1 and 2 has been such a big part of my life. Thank you bungie and the community. Its been a wild ride but its been worth it
Crazy how they took away all the unlocked missions and seeds of light in exchange for “glimmer” 🫤
Shocking how rasputins sacrifice was so much better than all of lightfall.
Its almost like Lightfall wasn't needed at all, and the game should have either just rolled into Season of Defiance and this year's seasons, or Final Shape (the actual one).
@@iamoctonate that was the plan originally however those higher ups can be a bit goofy at times.
@@iamoctonate Lightfall was the final expansion, it got split in two.
At the original time of announcement, Lightfall was just a working title, with Final shape not even being a thing.
Lightfall was needed to make sure the actual ending of the game could be finished; I just didn't expect them to blatantly lie about it in every interview and media piece.
@@Chr0maYOh those higher ups. So quirky.
@@PanoptesDreamsno lightfall has always been its own thing, final shape has always been known but they officially told us that Lightfall was its very own thing and wasn’t just a part 1 of something
The music in this game is incredible, I hope the person composing is still working with the company to make masterpieces like this...wait
I’m so glad Rise of Iron is getting the love it deserves :/
They just want us to forget how awesome SIVA was D:
It wasn't a Light & Darkness moment...
yeahh... woo hooo
@@Devmode_Nunchaku And Cayde's death was? He was killed by Scorn, yeah, but none under the thrall of the Witness. All were under the Fanatic's control and serving Uldren. They are made of Dark Ether but it's like saying Rasputin killing the Iron Lords had nothing to do with the foundation of the City itself, and what we all stand for throughout the series as Guardians.
Rise of iron is nowhere near as good as you say it is. In no universe is Rise of Iron better than witch queen
Destiny was a different game. The atmosphere, the music... A truly alien universe. Even just standing in The Cosmodrome listening. You felt it.
Now it feels plain 😭😭😭
Now everyone blames bungie because they don't get that same feeling...... Well duh, you first experienced that feeling 9 years ago, it gets old. Games not changed, you've just got used to it 😂
Even the artsyle. Don't get me wrong the art team is amazing, but the artsyle in the first game was just built different like I can't put my finger on it, but it felt more like Destiny.
Exactly, feeling weak in front of those aliens, fighting just to try to get some ammo and pray to get back to the tower in time, to join not other gardians but the entire humanity left....
@@Know3ody Nope. I still get that feeling with Destiny 1, because it was baked into every aspect of the game's design. The shine in the post processing for example was deliberate, it was to make the future, no matter how bleak or fearful, still beautiful and fascinating. The first game was very down to Earth compared to all this multiple godslayer level bullshit we're doing.
Destiny 1 was the better game, objectively through and through. It needs to come back, because it's the only one that's worth anyone's time.
Rasputin's final moment will always bring tears to my eyes. That was one of the most heartbreaking and defining moments in Destiny for me. I loved all the story moments throughout the years, this game takes a special place in my heart. Excited to see how the saga ends, but also hopeful that the people who create it, heart and soul, are given their due.
Watching this makes me want to go back and play D1. Such good times i had playing back then
play it then, servers are still open and it's very fun
I finally got it on sale some months ago and been having so much fun :) So glad I have an opportunity to explore it, so many stories and npcs!
I cant believe they also fired Rise of Iron
Didn’t really contribute much to Light and Dark, considered Filler.
"We kept the right expansions." -Pete Parsons, probably
May 19, 2015 - Nothing significant happened
September 20, 2016 - Nothing significant happened
December 5, 2017 - Nothing significant happened
May 8, 2018 - Nothing significant happened
Nothing beats that intro
Still one of the best setups to a new franchise only to instantly be undermined by the horrible narative of vanilia.
Imagine being part of an AMAZING journey for 10 years and being fired a couple of months before it all ends
How am I more invested in an hour long TH-cam video than I am in the actual game?
Being there when the Taken King was released was just so golden. That was the communities GOLDEN AGE. Everyone was playing together, enjoying themselves and the new context.. oh to go back to then days.
How old were you? Trust me it's how old you were.
@dtps_champion6016 Regardless of one's age, I think most would agree TTK is one of the best dlc's for Destiny
@@ryancameron4170 yeah but people always act like the game was better when they were 16 and had no responsibilities. Destiny is better rn than it was in the taken king, period
TH-cam has become bad on mobile and doesn't want to tag users for me properly. Anyway, I was 17 almost 18 when TTK did come out, but I'll agree Destiny is now better for sure but at the time it really did improve things back then when you compare it to what we had under the Dark Below & House of Wolves. It was my favourite d1 dlc, but I wouldn't want to go back to it now over say Forsaken. Can definitely still appreciate it for the changes it brought through.
@@ryancameron4170 yeah and I'm sure it was great compared to other games at the time too
This is truly what makes Destiny great, a series of loosely strung together moments too brief to explain why there was no time to explain.
This video is 54 minutes long. Nearly an hour. Sounds like we have time to explain.
This comment is a lie
I miss everything about D1 it was so pure and the soundtrack! 🔥
Such a damn shame that you removed any and all ability to play this story. As a day 1 player of D2 and a player of D1 at launch, it is truly saddening to see what has become of this game over the years
They didn't even bother to put chapter markers into this video for ease of access. Nice to see they gave putting this video out as much love as they put into actually making their story accessible and honoring the people who made their game what it is.
Its hilarious how downright contextless some of these story cutscenes are because their damn story were cut into limited seasons.
The D1 music is pure god tier.
I just hope we can resee all the cutscenes from within the game itself. I get a kick seeing these cutscenes. Especially when my own guardian is not only in it but talks as well.
I miss the original destiny campaign. The devils layer and going to venus for the first time. Man i loved it
45:16 this melody hits hard everytime it kicks in, you can’t tell me otherwise
I want an in game statue or something that is dedicated to the entire music team, seriously, some of the best game music ever made.
Through the highs and lows of this wonderful game, I've always stood by from my start in 2014 with the beta to today when this saga is at its end. It is wonderful to see a game somehow endure this long. let's raise our bowl of spicy ramen to seeing what the future holds.
"Eyes up Guardian"
wow, looks fun! i cant wait to replay all the campaigns that i paid for before the final sh... oh wait
17:06 Can't wait for the Rise Of Iron transition...
i mean it technically wasnt a part of the saga, it had nothing to do with light or darkness, more likle a side story
@@adilsagadiyev5090 So Cayde’s death was???
You could make that argument about a LOT of things within destiny lmao. Doesn't mean that Rise of Iron should be completely disregarded..?
@@yhelloh i mean eveything they included was a part of the story in some way shape or form, rise of iron wasnt. i love rise of iron its probably my personal faviourite expansion, but it has zero ties to the rest of the story.
@@adilsagadiyev5090 It’s always been a side story just like the Vex and the Nine. A backup B plot. But saying it’s not part of the saga is more of an opinion. It’s very much part of the story and if you think what might of happened if we left it untouched…
almost like it barely matters in the grand scheme of things : )
I love Bungie, I just wish D1 and vanilla D2 story were still here. They were fantastic
This is so cool, imagine if all this was actually in game and not deleted after we payed for it.
Man I wish I could play these moments in game!
Forsaken... Cayde... Gunslinger soundtrack... Unbelieveable!
Man it would sure be nice if i could play these moments instead of having to watch them on youtube, you know, since its a video game?
Technically you can play all of D1 still… including house of wolves and rise of iron.
Anyone see the original DO NOT USE version????!! Bungie at it again
Yup! Then they set the video to private and did some damage control.
Probably the one guy who still has a job as Destiny Community.
Ooof ya I saw it was confused
What did the original show??? I missed it 🤔
Did it show anything interesting or naw?
What do you mean? What’s different?
Have to update this after The Final Shape drops to include the entirety of the saga’s big story moments! Including Season of the Wish & TFS
I am new to D2.
This video is amazing, I would love to see a longer one with all the cut scenes and summaries that included the stories of Curse of Osiris, Warmind, and others.
I am bummed I didnt come pick up the game sooner.
there are lots of videos with playthroughs of CoO and warmind, as well as videos explaining their relevance to the story! much as they sucked i do miss playing them
Elsie better have a significant role in final shape, i mean she know so much after all the timelines shes been through this is her whole thing
D1 + 2 are masterpieces, the scenery, the music, the story. I hope all these developers who have worked hard on the game get raises… oh wait
wow so creative, it's almost like you just rephrased the top comment for likes.
idgaf what you think gng + idc about likes😭😭
Sometimes, through the darkest times in my life, gaming + music has been the only light for me. Those sometimes always gets more bearable thanks to people who has given us games & music like these. I don't care about those who don't appreciate, but I do. And by this, I thank Bungie & Sony for giving us Destiny since 2014 till now and I hope for an infinte time, Destiny stays and keeps growing. Thanks ❤ :)
They forgot the story moment where they fired most of their best employees.
The importance of this video cannot be overstated.
I've disliked plenty Bungie has done, even today, but I'll never give up. Not until Ghost stops picking me back up. I believe
D2 developers should acknowledge that D1 was significantly more cinematic, immersive, detailed, and even possessed a more realistic atmosphere. It had a profound impact, creating an indescribably amazing experience that none of us will ever forget. These memories deserve respect, and the current content should be crafted to be worthwhile in terms of time, money, and expectations.
A moment of silence for the newbie (to studio) that has to be as gifted as the other who made the music who may not be there.
Thanks Bungie for making me feel old
The Light: "Eyes Up Guardian."
The Darkness: "Ears Down Jardian."
...I don't know, I've been playing this game for 7 years and I still don't know what the Darkness is all about. lol
It's about destruction. That's it. The gardener, or Traveler, creates and the Winnower, or Darkness, destroys
The Darkness is just a force in the Universe, like the Light. The Light is used by Traveler, they are often used as one and the same but they are different. A while back there was thoughts that how the Light is to the Traveler (or Gardener as it has also been called), that there was another to the Darkness, known as the Winnower. Last few expansions we've learned that there is no Winnower, but there is an entity known as The Witness who, seeking this Winnower, effectively became it. It's reasons for chasing down the Traveler, or Gardener as it refers to it, were brought up ingame via a cutscene I recomend checking out during Season of the Deep (search The Witness's Origins Cinematic). Our understanding of what we thought the Darkness is during the Collapse vs what was utilizing the Darkness have come a long way. There's still a great deal of mystery behind it all, and oddly enough we now know more about the Darkness then the Traveler and the Light.
The darkness is the antithesis of the light (no duh) but in-game universe talk, it’s one of two fundamental forces that “shape” the universe and really reality itself. The light exists to put the forces of nature into motion, creating life, cosmic events, and in-game this power is described as occupying “the domain of the physical.” And the darkness exists to shape or manipulate this motion of the universe, and is describe as occupying “the domain of consciousness and emotion” in this way, you can think of darkness as the “rationality” of the universe; a force of purpose and direction. If the universe is a river, the light is what moves the water, and the dark is the direction in which the water moves.
I miss you red war you was great 😊😢
Don't think I didn't see that. You posted the do not use one first. I see you social media guy or girl
Kind wish Rise of Iron wasn’t blacklisted for some reason, but then again, it could have literally never happened and the story would be exactly the same. Current day Bungie would’ve just reduced that whole story to a lore tab on an eververse sparrow.
Rise of iron was supposed to be the start of D2.
Eramis was so cool I sure hope they continue her story arc following season of the seraph
What a journey. Awesome soundtrack, story and simply my favorite game. Thanks for the long journey since the first hours in Destiny 1.
Man, the artists working on this franchise are absolute legends. I could pick a single thing from these games and talk for hours about it.
Definitely some of the best people in the gaming industry.
10:09 This part never fails to give me chills 😎
Remember everyone, House of Wolves never happened.
Come to think of it, skolas was never real. Future War Cult propaganda most probably
Same goes for Rise of Iron
I mean skolas did try to do time travel… he was clearly trying to escape bungie’s destiny before D2
Same deal with rise of iron, really didn’t have any impact on the whole “light versus darkness” saga
OOOF. Watching this before the Final Shape and hearing Elsie say, "All ends are beginnings" hit haaaard
I miss the Red War. Nothing has yet to replicate the feeling of having no light.
Honestly for me the red war conveyed the most potent feeling of hopelessness and powerlessness I’ve frankly ever experienced in media.
For the first 20 minutes of course. Then we got our light back and everything was fine
13:30 if you’ve read the lore tab on the reef wars then you would know just how devastating and powerful the harbingers are, and knowing that and watching them just plink out of existence when they hit the dreadnaught was downright terrifying and truly emphasized the sheer presence oryx had
If Final Shape isn't the most groundbreaking final DLC in Destiny's long history, I'll never forgive Bungie.
"Oh yeah Rise of Iron happened too, ANYWAY-"
This feels like it was meant for Season of the Deep because right after, it shows 2 season of redacted then final shape. Still, this brought back memories for me 👍
Some good nostalgia watching these cutscenes 🥲 I can’t wait to see Cayde again in the Final Shape
✋🏻♠️🤚🏻
Greatest and most memorable moment of this saga?
Ans: Bungie firing 9% of its og employees
D1 armor was legit, D2 armor on the other hand…😢😢
Facts. I miss the hunter armor not being all chunky and the 3 eyed mask, taniks cloak, ogre bands, exotics can't touch me, etc. Ugh the greatness back then.. I mean the witcher armor looks dope tho. D1 just had better parts of armor ascetics. More of a customary thing, cloaks to legs.. the symmetry was different as well with the iron banner armor. Now the hunter armor has me wanting to make a female ugh.
Just compare D1 hunters KNUCKLEHEAD radar with D2.
Can we use this one?
Fallen had so much character in that first in game cutscene
I’m not crying I swear…
I really wish Bungie were still able to capture this magic nowadays.
The witness’s ultimate move against the light. Taking control of the higher ups at bungie and firing thousands of people for absolutely 0 reason, then demanding we pay them more money for even shitier seasons 😱😱
Michael, we will know, what you did for Destiny!
Early Destiny 1 music truly was something else. All the music was good, but the OG soundtrack is still the best
A lot of great memories here, seeing the scenes, hearing the score, takes me right back to where I was playing each story. Without a doubt I'll treasure the experiences I had playing Destiny for the rest of my life. I've loved every bit of it.
How have these stories not been made into novels? There’s a rich story to be found and expounded upon, and the pages of a book are perfect for it.
damn, is that a tear in my eye?
The music was everything in this game. I would be able to play the same for hours. D2 doesnt feel the same
this content should just be playable on the game, massive shame people can’t experience it properly
I loved being a Warrior of light…we’ve lost our way😞 bring back that feel of exploration and true good vs evil.
Oh boy can’t wait to launch D2 and replay all that older content I paid for!
I miss the old times back in 2016 when life was so much better for me and Destiny was much different. It's 2023 now and my life and destiny has done an 180.
This. This is the flashback video weve played 10 years for
Look at all this great content we can't play anymore
the things i would do for a destiny masterchief collection
This is epic. What an amazing journey it has been.
Whoever made this music did a pretty good job ngl. I hope they do well in the company!!
Let's go I was waiting for this one
If only the speaker knew what we would become capable of
"Now this beast has come, claiming to be king. Mara Sov, bows to no one." - 🙌😍Has been one of my favorite characters since her introduction.
This game is ONE BIG NOSTALGIA!!! oh well one more season and one more expansion until STORY over!!!
You do know after the expansion is not over right? we still got three episodes plus the vex.
@@michaelrivera7542 story is over dude... episodes only tell some side story, nothing new tho... TFS ENDS D2 STORY
@@n3cr0he11 bro it ends the light and darkness saga .....not destiny 2....it literally says our journey continues , plus biased of leaks the vex and hive will be the next major threat. Mostly the Vex because the witness does not control them and they haven't been dealt with. So destiny story will still go on
When the darkness is defeated, I wonder if we get a new golden age? The old tower back?
We walk away from the game.
I think they showed a version of the old tower when you go inside the traveler
@@sdstewart87 leaks confirmed the old tower is coming back, and we haven't seen it yet so yeah, 1000% we we will see it once inside the Traveller. It's all linked to time and concious, which is why we'll see Cayde again.
@@Dynasty1818it’ll be a small social area in the patrol zone I bet. Like the tower on Neomuna. So it’ll probably be empty with little interactions around it
yeah it would be cool if we get it back afterward@@sdstewart87
The feels are hitting and we are all going through this journey together and looking back on and experiencing and looking forward together it seems, even the creators and developers!!!!! Much Love Destiny Everything
💛
Ain't no way they did Rise of Iron like that...
The Final Shape preorder must be in the toilet for bungie to bless us with this
When you hear that music just starting at 0:00 alone. And it hits you with nostolgia so hard you feel like you’re 14 again. That’s when you know. HIRE BACK YOUR COMPOSER!!!
Nothing will ever come close to the mysterious atmosphere sound @2:05 for me that is the proper signature Destiny vibe, the greatness unknown and our adventure started 🥹 it was real and we where a part of it!
Thank you for the timeline.
It was these moments which created the fanbase, and it is these fans for which Final Shape should be made!
It could have at least acknowledged Rhulk and or Nezarec I think and a little bit more of the seasons to have it flow better. Maybe give Arrivals or even Haunted a mention out of any that were missing.
it would be so cool if the people who payed for expansions could still play them
Salvatori being the IRL Cayde loss ill never recover from.
I love that after 10 years this story video doesn’t even reach an hour long. That’s crazy.
Wow, I can't wait to replay the red war. oh, wait you can't.
