I remember playing the destiny beta nonstop when it first released in the summer. The following fall I was in 8th grade. Every day I carried around a Destiny magazine with concept art and articles about the upcoming video game (eventually it started falling apart). My best friend and I would marvel at the same images every day.
When the game finally dropped, I mained a Hunter, with my best friend a Titan. Together we played destiny until the Taken King, with our streak ending when I became an upperclassman in highschool, right before rise of iron dropped.
I remember my first VoG run, cheesing the Crota raid, getting my highest kill streak ever on the old moon map in crucible using preadyth’s revenge and going mad trying to collect all of the house of wolves exotics. I also remember running weekly raids and crucible with my old clan. Young and old and from super different backgrounds we had the best conversations.
I opened this app on a whim for the first time in years and found myself wondering if it would be possible to recapture the experience I’ve had before with destiny. I’m a 21 year old college student now and can’t play as much as I used to, but I’d love to relive of some of my childhood.
How much has changed since the taken king?
Is it worth coming back?
Does anyone have advice for finding a new community to game with?
TLDR:
Haven’t played since Destiny 1
Any advice on joining Destiny 2

Connections suck, busted seasonal weapons suck, Gambit sucks, PvP sucks, and PVE was never really good anyways. Easy pass if you play PvP. There are better PVE games out there for less money than Destiny will cost you too. I bought Witch Queen hoping for greener pastures. So far it’s worse not better. Campaign was ok the first time through. Became a chore after that.
