If you play it every day the big £80 purchase for the story dlc & whole season is peanuts really.

Well, since my solar build has been shafted by the loss of seasonal artifact perks (always a risk), I’ve been trying to build an arc titan. So far I’ve used Armamentarium on one version, and An Insurmountable Skullfort on another version. Both feel as weak as piss. It’s going to be a long season.

I'd love to play Destiny as the sci-fi graphics really click with me, but I feel like I've missed the boat with this.
I picked up the core game when it was included with PS+ yonks ago I think, and they included the Beyond Light DLC.
Now I hear that The Witch Queen is included with PS+ in March 2024, I'm wondering if I can play this as a total n00b and only with these two DLC packs? I feel that people who've been playing this for a decade won't tolerate people who are still figuring out the buttons.
Second question, could I play this with some other n00b mates? Will we have a laugh or will we be constantly restricted by not having any of the other DLC from this long list the PS Store shows me?
Finally, is it actually any good. I'll be honest, I've never really got into it as it's always felt like the kind of game where they sell you the minimum viable product and then sell you the bits to actually make it good.
Not trying to kick a hornets nest, I'm just saying what the game's infrastructure looks like to an outsider.

If you think of destiny as a launcher for the last 5 years worth of content you are kind of halfway to understanding it, I wouldn't pick up any of the above at the moment as playing through two separate stories at the same time would be very confusing.
In game there is a really handy tracker that you can set to track a specific mission set it to the Witch queen, and it will update constantly to your next task and highlight where you need to go on in the destiny universe and what your current task is. Its super handy to do this untill you get used to how the game works the only other tip id give you is pick up bounties from the tower and from planetary vendors as these get you decent XP passively. and just use blue armour until you reach the soft cap, then infuse the highest blue you get into the best stat purple armour you have.

Since it launched in 2018 my time on D2 is around 2263 hours, I'm seen in my clan as having rookie numbers
There are people that live in this game but you can just do the stories and play it casually if you like, you don't have to put thousands of hours into this to try and get every weapon every armour and every title.Last edited by Lebowski; 29-02-2024, 14:25.

You're not going to come across this type of stuff though if your playing with friends in the story based stuff as thankfully the difficulty of story stuff is a lot lower, and you tend to avoid having to deal with the toxic part of the community. Theirs are lots of chill clans who just play for fun and just like raiding and hunting down weapons and that's where I am with it.
Destiny has its own LFG app to find people to play with, you will see people looking for raid groups that will say things like "must be level xxx" "must have xxx guns" and "must know what to do", but you will also find Sherpa runs of content with people who like taking people though the harder content and showing them the mechanics of encounters and helping them get their first raid clears.Last edited by Lebowski; 29-02-2024, 14:24.
