This video was the hardest one I have ever made, thank you for the support and I will look to make the next one even better, thank you so much and come by a stream soon :)
I remember finishing this raid with my uncle, reliving the gameplay through this video makes me hear his voice and the joy we had the first time we killed that king, we used to make theories about future content and about the darkness but sadly he passed away this year, the last raid we did was The Leviathan. Now that the darkness is coming it's sad how he could never see or get to beat their ass. I still play destiny 2 sometimes, dedicating every game I play to him. Rest in Peace Tito Chard love you and we miss you.
Ikr but I’ve not felt the same feeling with destiny 2 raids there just too easy for you when your on par with the level whilst in destiny 1 it was challenging whether or not you were higher than the light level or on par with it, it was always a little if a challenge
When I first bought my ps3, the guy at the store I bought it from said to me word for word “bro, if you’re gona buy a ps3, buy it with destiny, trust me on this” at the time, taken king had just came out. I just wanted a ps3 to play cod and just wanted the guy to stop pressuring me into getting a game I didn’t want to, so I done what he said. Most fun I have ever had playing. To this day, I still remember that guy.
Oh man where did time go, I still vividly remember hopping on to this raid, meeting oryx for the first time then beating him for the first was definitely one of the most satisfying feeling I've ever felt in a video game. Good ol destiny days
Kings Fall was my favorite D1 raid because my hero moment was being a sherpa to 5 blueberries every week and taking 6 hours to do the raid but dammit I got them through it.
Agreed. Within 2 weeks of the original kings fall coming out I would run it 6-8 times a week with various squads, mostly new. It was always challenging and fun, especially every time it got a buff/challenge that made it harder to run. To this day it’s still my favorite raid, and damn do I miss it
This raid is what made me love the game, from learning the lore to completing the touch of malice quest. This raid gave me the sense I was part of something great and I will never forget how much it impacted me
King’s Fall was my favorite because of the fact that oryx was too powerful to be simply shot in the face. In fact, the only way to damage him was to complete a ritual and then use that to damage him. He is an actual GOD, so yeah, guns wouldn’t work
This raid killed my clan, there used to be 12 or so of us who would catch up everyday to raid, do strikes or crucible... after kingsfall only 6 of us really talked anymore. That being said the 6 of us who remained have been fast friends for years now, with 4 of them being invited to my wedding.
Congrats man! Very similar story for me, but now I’m married and have a 9 month old daughter. This morning my wife and I found out we’re pregnant again. Life’s crazy!
I remember playing this raid when I was 12 years old, the final encounter was the hardest and coolest thing I ever took part in in all of destiny, me and my first fireteam members, I still remember their names too, did this raid day one in like 12 hours. I still hold it in first place as my fondest memory from destiny as a franchise
This will always be my favorite raid. Oryx's death is incredibly satisfying, and the music for his encounter is amazing. Also, the plates are part of Hive lore.
I remember playing this on both gens of Xbox. I met lifelong friends, and this game just changed me forever. This game will always have a place in my heart.
Man Kings Fall is my absolute favorite raid. I kinda wish they bring it back with the DCV, but at the same time I don't If anything I want the light bulb warlock helmet
It would make the most sense to bring it back in the witch queen dlc. Like I'm hyped for vault since I love that raid but I'm praying kings fall comes back in witch queen. Kings fall was so awesome
@@jerules4909 yup we may also see crotas end come back the same year. This would make sense with the year's theming , as well as the fact that from a dev perspective it would most likely the easiest to bring back. This would be the fact most of the mechanics already are in d2 for example the crota fight and other mechanics.
All these raids like VOG coming back are hype, but at the same time they are going to be a joke because of Well of radiance. Well of radiance makes any ACTIVITY way too easy, because it's like you're invincible while you stand in it. I won't be surprised if bungie vaults the well of radiance or nerfs it.
@@AAce_87 I wouldnt be surprised if they did nerf it. Because they nerfed lunafactions and those made pve a complete joke. Bosses wouldnt last a second. But it's hard to nerf well in a way that wont make it not worth using over like nova bomb. There are ways to do it it would just be hard. But I agree well makes for some pretty copy and paste dps phases in destiny 2. I mean in destiny 1 usually we would just gather in the bubble but I mean now there is like no other way to dps. It's just well then spam
this raid is so nostalgic and seeing the reactions makes me think back to when i first did this raid and having generally the same reaction as a 16 year old really hits me in the chest
Dude, not gonna lie, these retrospectives have single-handily gotten me back into Destiny fever. I was playing it, for sure, but these got me invested more than I had been in a while. So much so that I've gone back to D1 to grind out a Hunter and try out these raids for the first time. Appreciate the hard work, man; keep it up.
Yeah, this title didn’t feel creative at all to me and a bit exaggerated as well. I feel like a better title could’ve been:”The Raid that Revolutionized Destiny”. To me that still captures your attention without over exaggerating.
Kings Fall is still my favorite Raid in Destiny. Maybe its because of the Hive theme, maybe its because it was the best time with my former clan or just the mechanics. It will always have a special place in my heart
Requiem Eye Then wtf does that make a lot of these other raids? Especially these newer ones. 😂 I’ve never heard someone call Kings Fall basic. That’s a first
@Requiem Eye once you understand the mechanics of a raid it becomes basic. Calus fight call symbol, kill stuff, more shoot stuff, stand in plate and dps.
This man's videos are outstanding. So well produced and actaully super re-watchable with really a engaging script and structure, so much effort goes in and it shows.
I can't believe vog, crota and kings fall were all in one year, but I've been back playing destiny since season of opulence and it's been almost two years and haven't felt this much content fun that was in half that time.
Your vids never fail to remind me of something obscure about Destiny's history that I had long forgotten, like the fact that ghost shells used to have light level attached to them. It's so weird to think about today.
Man this video was so well put together. One of my absolute favorite raids ever. Everything about this raid minus the teleporting ogres at the end was just amazing. Crazy how in a couple months it’ll be 5 years since this raid came out
That guy from rare drop saying I got a heavy. I can only imagine getting quillims terminus day 1, equipping it and then realizing you have one of the best heavy weapons in the game in your hands
Yeah it’s my second or first (keeps flipping between kings fall and wrath, but now probably kings fall). Anyways I still go back to play D1, and still am as it’s too good to forget
I think it will be a missed opportunity if they don’t bring back the dreadnought and Kings Fall when the Witch Queen expansion comes out. It would be perfect
This raid had some of my favorite drops, I thought all the harrowed guns were the coolest things ever. But I ever only got past the war priest and got a few guns and armor from it. Love the video btw. Keep up the fire content🔥
During D1, I only ever had a 4 man team. We finally did it after months of trying to strategies with 4 players and that feeling of sending Oryx into the abyss was unmatched 💯
The team i was with actually made it to golgoroth before their team by almost 15mibs but we couldnt figure him out so we had to wait for them to reach golgoroth and figure it out so we could do it as well. It took us quite a while after that which is why we were only top 30 but man this was such nostalgia seeing these clips that i was watching live while playing trying to compete for worlds first.
I will always have fond memories of this raid, as it really cemented the core 6 players of my clan that I play with to this day. We've even met each other outside of the game, and this raid more than any other may be the reason why we all stuck with this game for so long
I came to Destiny in Destiny 2 and eventually went back to D1 and got all characters to 400 and ran all the raids. The end of King's Fall when Oryx revealed himself made King's Fall the most impressive raid in my eyes and definitely one of the best!
Kings fall took my team a month to get high level enough for a full clear. We loved it! Took absolute the most out of us but made us so much better. After that, we raided every week on reset day ☺️☺️ ah sweet days
The amount of time put into these videos, the editing, and the content etc, they deserve so many more views than they have. Thank you again! Fun fact, we were the first to Golgoroth, but Aussie connections, or lack there of, killed us!
I just stumbled upon this video and this brings me back to the glory days of destiny, some of my all time best moments i had on the xbox one, I miss those days
My best video gaming memory of all time is playing the campaign at midnight with a fireteam of guys I was playing magic with. We did two fireteams the whole time through the campaign, and then did the raid that Saturday. Really glad Crossplay is a thing and I've started being able to play destiny 2 with some of them
Couple things you forgot about golgoroth is that there is a totem in the back that when 6 people die the encounter INSTANTLY wipes. ALSO during DPS phases (non taken) starting from when the 2nd pool is dropped, cursed thrall start spawning. so you also need to look out for them while damaging golgoroth
I remember watching every minute of Goth’s streams leading up to the raid and his pain with never getting a a 290+ ghost shell to drop for him. Just some context on why he was estatic to get the raid shell
Vault of Glass: the first and OG raid. Crota's End: a raid that was hard when it first came out, now it's a laughing stock. King's Fall: You want pain? An unforgettable experience? Want to topple a King? Kill a god Wrath of the Machine: You wish to become *[PERFECTED]* do you not.
I love your videos man. I fell out of playing destiny but I have so much history and love for destiny 1 and the first year of destiny 2. Watching these takes me all the way back so thank you for the content!
@@roberthallard89 100% agreed it's just that most people seem to forget about the fact that the starting point for the last 4 season story started at garden of salvation when we made the vex angry enough that they unleashed the vex offensive
When this raid came out I was so into playing the game I quit the shitty job I had at the time to grind ended up being Nineveh 7 I’m the world for highest light before the raid came out just behind giggle monster then when hard mode came out I deleted two characters a day and leveled them just to get more raid drops I believe this was an average of 20 hours a day I was dedicated
I played this with three of my friends. The fireteam had only 4 people so every week we had to go on to the forum and recruit people. Met some really cool guys and really enjoyed this raid. Still remember the first time beating oryx, and the first time flawless the hard mode. That was the gap year between college and work. Good old days. Just came back to D2 and keep telling my new fireteam how cool this raid was. Sounds like a veteran from WWII trying to tell grandsons war story.
I still feel they had tips from someone at Bungie prior to the raid. I remember many saying the same thing back in the day. The publicity this raid’s world’s first got was mainly due to who completed it, the most popular Destiny content creator at the time.
Sorry so late, I love history videos like this. Maybe it’s nostalgia, or seeing destiny at its peak, or, yeah it nostalgia. Great job. Wish I could like it twice.
Bungie: Okay so we’re supposed to have Destiny 2 next year so this last raid has to be fantastic. ‘Kings Fall’ we’ll call it. One encounter, four bosses. It’ll be great. Kings Fall: *Is fantastic* Bungie: That’s great, now we have a great capstone for Destiny 1. Destiny 2: *Is delayed* Bungie: Well shit, how in the hell do we top that? Wrath of the Machine: ~What’s that coming over the hill~ Serious note though, Wrath of the Machine is to date my favourite Destiny raid and I cannot wait until it comes into Destiny 2 through the DCV so that I can share that experience with my friend who only got into Destiny with Forsaken.
you can always just take a break from D2 and have them play D1 with you. If they like D2 then there's no doubt they'll love D1, just gotta someone's gotta fork up about $60 fir the entire D1 experience, really wish they would either make D1 free to play, or at least cut down the price to maybe $10. Bungie owns the rights, they can do that. Or they at least SHOULD own all the rights for the Destiny franchise THEY created. one thing I will hate about the vaulting and removal of content from D2 when Beyond Light drops, is that story-wise it won't be new player friendly, as if they play through D1, you're missing 3 campaigns of story that lead INTO the present day events of D2. D1 and D2 work amazingly well when you play straight through them both with one character each and see the whole picture.
I didn't start raiding until about a month before house of wolves. Vog was rough as far as finding groups to let me in so I got most of my experience from crota. But KF was the first raid I was there for on day 1. The first raid where I wasn't the only one who didn't know what to do, and the first raid I ran more than 3 times a week to master it. I'm not saying its the best raid, but the memories I have from it make it my favorite D1 raid. Thanks for this vid.
Wrath of the Machine is still my favorite raid but Kings Fall is definitely the raid that changed the way we see them. The difficulty and scale of it was absolutely insane at the time and cannot be understated
I remember this day. I day 1 this but it took me over 22 hours. Those moments when you beat that boss of a raid you spent so much time in. I had a personal stake in it as well.
I cant believes the insane timing of this video tho, the instant evan covers the ttk raid n mentions calcified fragments we have to collect calcified fragments n forge a touch of malice inspired gun. They even mention how the touch of malice was used as a blueprint for this new weapon

Just got done doing kings fall on hard mode on the xbox 360. Man I love this raid
This was nothing short of happiness lane for me. Thank you 😊
ay evan can you like, give me the link to that picture of that giant toad??
also, what are those raids you thought stand out more?
ur so wrong dude great vid tho
kings fall was my favorite expansion in any game ive played...... diablo 2 lod or Gta 4 and the dlcs come to mind but damn awesome vid man thank you
The music in this expansion will be missed dearly
Oh it’s coming back don’t worry when this Orxy Raid comes out of the Content vault!!
Missed? Heh I still play D1
Hmm well Bungo did say that we should not be afraid to ask so....
Spam their DMs and ruin their lives untill they comply and bring it back

Still my favorite raid. I like all the bosses in this one. ✅😀
They talked about bringing VoG back but if they do that I really hope they bring back Taken King and the raid back.
You commented on his crota video saying that was your favorite raid
Same
Samuel Martens lol that’s funny, Crota was the worst year 1 too.
Tom Ato still better than last wish, gos, and dsc.
The feeling of beating a boss and the whole squad screaming is literally my favorite thing about raiding In any game.
True that. Never had that feeling until I finally beat Oryx after countless attempts with randoms I found in the tower on the Xbox 360
yep you got that right bro
Ikr but I’ve not felt the same feeling with destiny 2 raids there just too easy for you when your on par with the level whilst in destiny 1 it was challenging whether or not you were higher than the light level or on par with it, it was always a little if a challenge
Nowadays everyone just slowly leaves and complains about loot
@@shadowdragon6302 fr like destiny 2 raids are as challenging as strikes
Can we talk about the dreadnaught?
It is arguably the best location in destiny history
100% agree
I don't know if I like it more or the dreaming city
@@themaddestoflads8689 True, the dreaming city is pretty amazing
I prefer dreaming city but dreadnaught is sick too
Lmfao not even close to Dreaming City
God I used to love logging into the game to hear the Oryx music on the title screen was so good
Light11xD you can still get it on ps3 lol
BlitzCreed Tempting to dust of the old ps3 just for that Nostalgia
DUUN DUUUN DUUUUUUUUN
When I first bought my ps3, the guy at the store I bought it from said to me word for word “bro, if you’re gona buy a ps3, buy it with destiny, trust me on this” at the time, taken king had just came out. I just wanted a ps3 to play cod and just wanted the guy to stop pressuring me into getting a game I didn’t want to, so I done what he said. Most fun I have ever had playing. To this day, I still remember that guy.
Me who’s never played D1 watching these videos: damn...they really had stats on ghosts
You missed out on destiny’s glory days
power level on artifacts too 😓 I honestly miss when class items didn’t roll with power or stats either.
D1 is better than d2 I played d1 when it first realeases
@Jeremy G I personally think that vanilla d1 was worse than vanilla d2 but vanilla d2 was significantly worse than taken king and rise of iron
REAL stats
Oh man where did time go, I still vividly remember hopping on to this raid, meeting oryx for the first time then beating him for the first was definitely one of the most satisfying feeling I've ever felt in a video game. Good ol destiny days
Kings Fall was my favorite D1 raid because my hero moment was being a sherpa to 5 blueberries every week and taking 6 hours to do the raid but dammit I got them through it.
You know if your on xbox and wanna sherpa another then ya know im open
Lol I did the exact same thing. Multiple times a week, I know your pain
We use to carry people who had never ran it straight through hard mode. Those were such fun times and I miss it
Lmao, same. Saturdays were those days I used to carry people through the raids and trials
Agreed. Within 2 weeks of the original kings fall coming out I would run it 6-8 times a week with various squads, mostly new. It was always challenging and fun, especially every time it got a buff/challenge that made it harder to run. To this day it’s still my favorite raid, and damn do I miss it
When you've played Destiny for 7 years yet still call awoken "blue aliens".
What's wrong with my blue alien titans
Imagine a savathun raid of this scale! Still need to wait a whole year though.
And just for additional icing on the cake, King's Fall brought back for that expansion! 😁
Ok
A "Queen's Fall" Raid would be so fucking cool
Drae-J that would be fucking sick
Kroq Gar I’m calling it now: Savathun is probably going to be a giant spider.
This raid is what made me love the game, from learning the lore to completing the touch of malice quest. This raid gave me the sense I was part of something great and I will never forget how much it impacted me
King’s Fall was my favorite because of the fact that oryx was too powerful to be simply shot in the face. In fact, the only way to damage him was to complete a ritual and then use that to damage him.
He is an actual GOD, so yeah, guns wouldn’t work
Touch of malice was great for that dps part. Was hard and fun.
Maybe they should thought back to that with Xol in d2... “hive worm god, hmm? Yeah that should be the easiest boss in the game”
edgy boi I think the Xol and Nokris fight were under done because the raid team wanted to do more Calus
Imagine kings fall with wells and rifts and all the new shit
@@nathanflinchum1153 to be fair he was the runt of the worm gods and in lore was said he was really weak
To to this day, you can still hear the faint echoing of the Zaouli's Bane still reloading
I loved that Hand Cannon so much
That’s why you stow it and wait instead
This raid killed my clan, there used to be 12 or so of us who would catch up everyday to raid, do strikes or crucible... after kingsfall only 6 of us really talked anymore.
That being said the 6 of us who remained have been fast friends for years now, with 4 of them being invited to my wedding.
Dude that's actually Awesome. Congrats bro
I've had a best friend but never a fast friend. How does that work? How fast are they?
That’s amazing how fast are they??
And F for the other two or one if you included yourself in the 6
I had a clan of 80+ super active players. Lineups for raids active. I left d1 after oryx hard mode. I gave the clan away and it went to poo.
Congrats man! Very similar story for me, but now I’m married and have a 9 month old daughter. This morning my wife and I found out we’re pregnant again. Life’s crazy!

Never forget the calcified fragment on top of the warpriest blight
I remember Broman being convinced that Adepts were the key to the entire raid mechanics. 😂
I have been BINGING your videos the last few days and I LOVE these. So well done, man. Trip down memory lane.
The “fun” walls was the absolute best part of this video change my mind!??!
It's 3am right now and the *monch* sound effect at 41:59 absolutely floored me
This couldn’t have been more perfect timing since I’ve got a long road trip ahead. Thanks Evan!
I came to Destiny in Destiny 2 and eventually went back to D1 and got all characters to 400 and ran all the raids. The end of King's Fall when Oryx revealed himself made King's Fall the most impressive raid in my eyes and definitely one of the best!
If Byf is Lore Daddy then you're the Historian of Destiny. Great job once again :D
The tower music is giving me so much nostalgia
Your channel makes me sad because I remember when I actually enjoyed playing Destiny.
The real destiny is still fun
I love how Evan's become the communitys historian
Kings fall took my team a month to get high level enough for a full clear. We loved it! Took absolute the most out of us but made us so much better. After that, we raided every week on reset day ☺️☺️ ah sweet days
The amount of time put into these videos, the editing, and the content etc, they deserve so many more views than they have. Thank you again! Fun fact, we were the first to Golgoroth, but Aussie connections, or lack there of, killed us!
Next video title:
Wrath of the Machine: Pursuit of Perfection
Or Wrath or the machine: Raiding perfected
....get it?
Wrath of the Machine: *[CONSUME ENHANCE REPLICATE]*
Wrath is my favorite raid in D1.

I just stumbled upon this video and this brings me back to the glory days of destiny, some of my all time best moments i had on the xbox one, I miss those days
“Some see a fun engaging challenge, I only see pain” Ghost.... Cayde’s odds and ends, roryx test
i love when Teawrex was running away from Oryx and you just see the rest of the team turn around to look then start walking backwards
Me: Has a team still stuck on the same encounter for 2 hours.
Raredrop: Completely learns the Warpreist and completes it under 50 minutes.
this raid is my favourite time in destiny along with the new locations, campaign etc. So nostalgic.
I just did this raid yesterday lol, never gets old.
I still do it every week. I love it
My best video gaming memory of all time is playing the campaign at midnight with a fireteam of guys I was playing magic with. We did two fireteams the whole time through the campaign, and then did the raid that Saturday.
Really glad Crossplay is a thing and I've started being able to play destiny 2 with some of them
Me: Kings fall was the best raid and deserves no criticism
Also me: ok fair enough..
Watched these raids vids like 40 times and they never get old
“Tether being the first real debuff in destiny to my knowledge”
Someone didn’t play warlock did they?
Viking Funeral didn't gain the debuff effect until the April update, and Sunbreaker came out at the same time as Nightstalker.
😎👉
Couple things you forgot about golgoroth is that there is a totem in the back that when 6 people die the encounter INSTANTLY wipes. ALSO during DPS phases (non taken) starting from when the 2nd pool is dropped, cursed thrall start spawning. so you also need to look out for them while damaging golgoroth
I remember watching every minute of Goth’s streams leading up to the raid and his pain with never getting a a 290+ ghost shell to drop for him. Just some context on why he was estatic to get the raid shell
I was in of one of the first 20 clans to beat Kings Fall, I loved this raid so much. Great Video
Vault of Glass: the first and OG raid.
Crota's End: a raid that was hard when it first came out, now it's a laughing stock.
King's Fall: You want pain? An unforgettable experience? Want to topple a King? Kill a god
Wrath of the Machine: You wish to become *[PERFECTED]* do you not.
crota's end or as we now call it a "lost sector"
Joke or not, Crota's End is still one of my top 3 favorite raids. Destiny 1 nailed aesthetic in all its raids and Crota's End was just mindless fun.
dxt2891 we did a 19 minute speed run at one point.
I love your videos man. I fell out of playing destiny but I have so much history and love for destiny 1 and the first year of destiny 2. Watching these takes me all the way back so thank you for the content!
Interesting how everything in Destiny "Changes everything forever" :D Love the videos though.
Generally the yearly raids did have that effect.
Garden of Salvation not so much though.
@@roberthallard89 actually garden did play quite a big role in the year 3 story
@@TwoBadYe Yeah but not to the extent that forsaken did before it.
I don't think it brought much to the table that we hadn't already seen before.
@@roberthallard89 100% agreed it's just that most people seem to forget about the fact that the starting point for the last 4 season story started at garden of salvation when we made the vex angry enough that they unleashed the vex offensive
@@TwoBadYe True, although I do remember at the time thinking it all seemed a bit disjointed.
With Forsaken it just seemed to flow a bit better for me.
Man I loved this raid. I ran this raid more than any other raid ever. Great work on the vid.
Gotta love gothalion’s reaction
Nothing quite as epic than to watch Oryx’s body freeze up in the cold vacuum of space as he floats away toward Titan.
When this raid came out I was so into playing the game I quit the shitty job I had at the time to grind ended up being Nineveh 7 I’m the world for highest light before the raid came out just behind giggle monster then when hard mode came out I deleted two characters a day and leveled them just to get more raid drops I believe this was an average of 20 hours a day I was dedicated
Bro you good now?
lolosh99 I haven’t played once since the garden of salvation came out
thats not dedicated thats sad and embarrassing as shit
Drew Jackson I agree but man I was young and had nothing going on in my life had an awful part time job so like who cares 🤷♂️
Touch of Malice was Awesome and very well thought out. I just loved how it looked too and it's function was very unique.
Newbie reacting to Oryx in King’s Fall: OMG, he got so big!
*That’s what she said*
I played this with three of my friends. The fireteam had only 4 people so every week we had to go on to the forum and recruit people. Met some really cool guys and really enjoyed this raid. Still remember the first time beating oryx, and the first time flawless the hard mode. That was the gap year between college and work. Good old days. Just came back to D2 and keep telling my new fireteam how cool this raid was. Sounds like a veteran from WWII trying to tell grandsons war story.
I still feel they had tips from someone at Bungie prior to the raid. I remember many saying the same thing back in the day. The publicity this raid’s world’s first got was mainly due to who completed it, the most popular Destiny content creator at the time.
Agreed one person in the fire team even said I heard from someone it’s not done
Sorry so late, I love history videos like this. Maybe it’s nostalgia, or seeing destiny at its peak, or, yeah it nostalgia. Great job. Wish I could like it twice.
Bungie: Okay so we’re supposed to have Destiny 2 next year so this last raid has to be fantastic. ‘Kings Fall’ we’ll call it. One encounter, four bosses. It’ll be great.
Kings Fall: *Is fantastic*
Bungie: That’s great, now we have a great capstone for Destiny 1.
Destiny 2: *Is delayed*
Bungie: Well shit, how in the hell do we top that?
Wrath of the Machine: ~What’s that coming over the hill~
Serious note though, Wrath of the Machine is to date my favourite Destiny raid and I cannot wait until it comes into Destiny 2 through the DCV so that I can share that experience with my friend who only got into Destiny with Forsaken.
you can always just take a break from D2 and have them play D1 with you. If they like D2 then there's no doubt they'll love D1, just gotta someone's gotta fork up about $60 fir the entire D1 experience, really wish they would either make D1 free to play, or at least cut down the price to maybe $10. Bungie owns the rights, they can do that. Or they at least SHOULD own all the rights for the Destiny franchise THEY created. one thing I will hate about the vaulting and removal of content from D2 when Beyond Light drops, is that story-wise it won't be new player friendly, as if they play through D1, you're missing 3 campaigns of story that lead INTO the present day events of D2. D1 and D2 work amazingly well when you play straight through them both with one character each and see the whole picture.
I didn't start raiding until about a month before house of wolves. Vog was rough as far as finding groups to let me in so I got most of my experience from crota. But KF was the first raid I was there for on day 1. The first raid where I wasn't the only one who didn't know what to do, and the first raid I ran more than 3 times a week to master it. I'm not saying its the best raid, but the memories I have from it make it my favorite D1 raid. Thanks for this vid.
If this raid returns in Witch Queen then I can’t wait!
I remember the IH raid.
Most nerve-racking thing I ever did in Div 2.
I feel like destiny was so close to becoming Anthem, luckily it never went down that road
Remember playing this day one and my team checking streams when we got stuck. Good times
Wrath of the Machine is still my favorite raid but Kings Fall is definitely the raid that changed the way we see them. The difficulty and scale of it was absolutely insane at the time and cannot be understated
I remember this day. I day 1 this but it took me over 22 hours. Those moments when you beat that boss of a raid you spent so much time in. I had a personal stake in it as well.
I cant believes the insane timing of this video tho, the instant evan covers the ttk raid n mentions calcified fragments we have to collect calcified fragments n forge a touch of malice inspired gun. They even mention how the touch of malice was used as a blueprint for this new weapon
27:46 That dude *NOPED* right out of there 😂
