Is Destiny 2 Into the Light Worth Your Time? - Destiny 2
On April 9th, 2024 Destiny players, any player, for free, got a brand new Horde Mode, Whipser of the worm craftable with changes to the exotic mission, and . Alongside this there is 6 iconic weapons, the ability to skip the new light quest for players just hopping in to get rid of the slog it can be, character customization changes, and a free name change. This is all free and this is all only in week 1, with the pantheon, 6 more weapons, outbreak perfected returning, and pvp maps. So this video should probably just end here right? It’s a resounding YES from the destiny community if “into the light is worth your time?” Comments like “we’re so back”. I don’t think there is even room for argument that if you like Destiny at all and or liked the game in the past AT ALL that you shouldn’t play this. Into the light is the best content drop since the 30th anniversary that Destiny has had. It’s better than almost all seasons and carries with it such a player friendly punch that you’d be questioning if this was the same bungie from a few months ago selling starter bundles and getting the whole community stirred up. On top of this, Bungie came out swinging with the final shape Vidoc which was totally unexpected. I think I’ll keep the focus on into the light, but that one blew me away with new subclass, new enemy race, mixing and mashing supers, and the exotic class item busting up the balance of the game even more. The final shape looks RAW! But this Into the light thing also got my brain asking one question and it’s not meant to be this cynical mess of a question, more of a common sense one.. Why does it take the near downfall of Destiny to present changes that are finally pro player? Changes that get everyone in the game? Wouldn’t everyone be on the game IF WE JUST GAVE THEM REASONS TO MORE OFTEN? Look, nobody wants to be that guy when everyone is having fun, I have been having SUCH a blast with Into the Light, but if we don’t want bleh bungie to exist then you have to ask these questions and actually be thinking about what you get and why you’re getting it. Part of me wonders why the original final shape didn’t look nearly as good as this? I’m telling you that feedback works, bein a BLEEP isn’t the same as feedback, but feedback works. I will save my overall worries and thoughts after we talk about the meat of the content and reasons you’d want to maybe jump back in or give into the light a shot.

Want to clarify that I said "concerned" instead of "cornered" my fault thank you guys for calling it out
Sorry but no Ian not falling for thier lies, they took all the dlc I had to bust my ass at work to pay for, unless I get all my campaign dlc back and the cash shop goes for good I ain’t touching this scam, because I had to pay for this game and it’s dlc when it came out so u free to play Andy’s can shut your yaps destiny is free to try and pay to play
@@abyssal-labs learn to spell before spouting this BS
huge difference in context when those two words are swapped
@@pooddly9637lol keep defending a shit game
@@gebi151 jesus christ get over yourself.
"Why don't they do this more often?" - Agree with you on the whole video, just hypothesizing here: I'm loving Into the Light, but we can't see under the hood. This product required a six month delay to the Final Shape, plus a ton of layoffs and benefit cuts, and probably a lot of crunch, too. You don't throw a hail Mary when you think you're ahead.
@@EnvisionedBlindness and OP never stated that
OP is pointing out that the company is about to go under entirely. This is their last ditch effort to attract players to the game, before they don't have enough money to pay the last 10 developers
@@EnvisionedBlindness Bungie thought they were ahead when they gave us Lightfall, that's why they didn't throw the hall Mary. After Lightfall bombed and the seasons didn't make the sale, Bungie decided to go big with Into the Light and Prismatic.
This close to buying annual upgrade just to grind and get ready for shape
I would wish that if price gouging and asking for money for every thing and every event and expansion isn’t working then maybe calm down on the money grubbing and maybe just make a good full game. They shouldn’t be going under at all the way they make money from the addicts .
@@jasonjohns9907 Honestly this is exactly what I thought of when I heard the massive layoffs. The company is clearly in trouble and I don’t feel like sinking time in a game that I fear will be shut down or stop getting updates soon. If they survive to make more contents post final shape then I’ll come back but until then, I’m not touching the game.
The solution is to wait to buy the dlc. Give the youtubers a week or two to tell us if its a taken king dlc or another lightfall before we give bungie our fucking money
i say give it 3 weeks for peoples real unflitered thoughts.. if there still saying its amazing then, then yeah, go for it.
I disagree. Guys, if you enjoy destiny, love it, addicted, whatever, Play Destiny because you Choose too. Support Bungie like they're on our Grandmaster Fireteam. Say, thanks, or show appreciation for this Chaos Emerald every once in a while.
Word.
@@clovisbray2513no….literally no. You’re part of the reason the devs kept giving us bullshit 😂 we let the game bleed, we spoke up, gave them a piece of our minds and now look, into the light is great and final shape is looking to be amazing
The comment was actually "I love a CORNERED Bungie." Not "concerned".
But I think a lot of us have seen what has happened multiple times over the years, and that's the fact that Bungie seems to put out their Best Work when they're up against the wall, between a 4ock and a hard place.
I wish it didn't take that for the higher ups to let the Devs really cook some gourmet, instead of Easy Mac
The future looks so much brighter than it has in a long time. See you out there Guardians 🤙
The fact the new social space doesn't have a postmaster and vault kinda kills it for me.
Forrrrrreal
Not jumped into the new area but can’t you still use the destiny apps for that
If that ruined it for you, you wanted it to fail. Try another game.
Its a valid concern, I think the pov might be "if they left a selling point incomplete, what else did they cut corners on?"
This is Bungie we're talking about, its been arguably over a year since they last had a strong win
@@awkwardllama0509 And even their wins come with Ls . Bungie hasnt had a full on success
A cornered* Bungie.
Let's be honest, they had no choice. They actually had to work at last.
They can't keep taking the players for granted.
Yes they can, these are all old weapons and they're making you grind like crazy for it.
@@JizzSock_they aren’t making you do anything. Just do something else if you don’t want the weapons. Besides they drop often from onslaught so it really isn’t that bad.
@@ne12follow Yes they are. Everyone had already earned recluse/mountain top and they sunset it. How can we use these weapons again? Grind.
I'm sure your pre order is in. LMAO
@@JizzSock_brother you guys BEGGED for these guns to comeback and now that they are you cant do a 15 minute quest to get said guns? Seems like another person who complains for no reason
@@Misosalty683 Yeah, let someone take what you earned, then make you earn it all over again when you already worked for it. That shit was a grind, brother. I don't understand how you're missing my point.
That clip of the no land beyond firing in super slow motion needs to mean BUNGIE IS BRINGING IT BACK.
Hard to believe they will bring back the worst exotic In destiny
@@TheGam3Br3akeR sounds like you just weren't good with it.
2:05 is honestly why i think im not enjoying the update as much as i would
yeah its cool, i think a horde mode is perfect for destiny, i love that i can finally change my warlock's look, more reprised exotic missions is dope, etc
but at the same time I cant help but think "why are we just now getting things that honestly should have already been in the game"
Guardian customization is only exciting because its a basic feature that should've been in the game already. Horde mode isnt even new content, its recycled environments with an OK gamemode thrown on top (its more of a tower defense game than a horde game too). And while 3 new pvp maps is cool, but only feels like a big deal because of how deprived PVP has been of new content.
This update is a step in the right direction, but honestly feels like its too little too late in a lot of ways.
And in the back of my mind all i can think of is "we're gonna get a couple good updates and then they're gonna go right back to how it was before"
yep, i told my friend to wait to buy final shape, until its been out for a few weeks, and if its really worth it or not.. some of the changes like, using what ever ability you want from any subclass sound super dope, but i have a feeling its going to very limiting on release and will expand on it update after update.
Good thing final shape is the perfect jumping off point then. if final shape is good, enjoy it, complete it all, then stop. Then you won't have to worry about them going downhill after.
My mentality towards Into The Light as it sits is a good thing for the health of the game. The Final Shape reveal was also very good looking, but I'm not going to let the hype cloud my judgement for now
Falling guillotine is very unique now with double damage perks. Im happy to see the the bequest that bequest shall leave as falling guillotine returns from its grave.
The Black Armory Founder's Shaders (Rasmussen Clan, House of Mayrin & Satou Tribe) look great on the reprised weapons.
Best video still on an add I can just smell how good this video is gonna be
Was waiting for this I'm so back tonight
Love the energy of this vid. Keep it up
Solid review I agree, don't care too much about the weapons but onslaught is so fun to try new guns out and builds
My favorite soundtrack level has returned. But I think I had a good run. Guardian down.
Well, it brought me back after my break from D2. I can definitely see it being in my main MP rotation again along with Helldivers 2, Insurgency, R6 Siege, Gears 5 & Halo Infinite
In the TWID, they say that both Onslaught and the reprised exotic missions will stay. The reprised missions will be moved to the Legends tab, Onslaught as a separate Vanguard Ops playlist
💯 percent agree with this video. Hopefully 🤞 Bungie can keep up this pace with player 1st
I think it’s good to keep us occupied till final shape
I been playing for about a month or longer and I’m stupid addicted to this game. I cannot stop fucking playing it thanks for the videos mate
@14min:13sec. Bro. Well said. Evan, you are great
“Why dont they do this more often”, it’s because there’s no real ROI, at least no guaranteed and reliable ROI
ROI on deez nuts
Ight I am jumping back in, just heard the forbidden name of recluse
it's not feedback that works, it's talking with money that does.
well also player engagement... they freaked out when people weren't playing there game... well also nobody buying final shape..... i belive what they worked on for these extra few months was this new subclass mix and match system,,, witch honestly, more custimizations on your build to make it uniqe im all for,, but i have no doubt its going to be a very limiting system.
I think it’s crazy how much more views the helldiver videos get
Been taking a break for a while, might come back for this.
im only coming back when all weps are added, they time gated the weps lmao. (and the shader pretty much cause thats tied to the weps.)
Haven’t played since forsaken genuinely exited to come back should have a lot of content to do 😊
personally I’m super glad they added something to work towards in a huge drought of content, especially considering the added content is pretty fun
I've been in a state where I don't feel good about playing games, even Destiny, it's rly hard to find the motivation to do quests, I even passed on the skimmer. I bought a new mic so maybe that's my motivation to play more.
That’s just being an adult homie. Unless playing video games was my job, it just feels useless
This seems less like a video game issue and more like a mental health issue. People are there for you bro, don't forget that.
the only thing thats interesting to me are the subclass changes with the exotic class item, but im not sure if i'll come back to play it.
i told my friend to wait 3 weeks after release after the hype died down to see peoples unfiltered opinions on it, and to know if the dlc is worth it or not.
I preordered it for all 3 platforms forever ago. Because the game is dope and has a ridiculous amount of stuff to do. Unmatched gunplay and game mechanics. My wife and I have a blast running raids and dungeons. There’s not a single game out that gives you this much stuff to do as a fps.
It’s the prices that I have the biggest problem with. If the DLC’s were half the price like they should be, more people would probably play. But I know a lot of people that are tired of dumping too much money for little content and left a few years back.
I mean whisper was time gated before it was thrown in the dcv as it had to relate to the burn
Not with those drop rates on the gold weapons, my team decided to just farm the first chest on legend
Cornered, not concerned
Don't know about you bud, but i'd be a bit concerned if i was cornered...
It'll be worth my time when the time gating is finished. Not playing for a few weeks.
Valid, don't get what the point of time gating this loot is when we're going to be grinding for a long ass time to get god rolls
@@Cappy_Cat Why do y'all care that a few weapons are missing. You have a whole week to focus on 6 weapons. Then you have a whole week to farm the next 2 weapons. Like you say, it takes a long time to farm for the god rolls so why do you need all the weapons at once when you're gonna be focusing on 1 or 2 at a time because of the attunement thing
@@oxsila Because there's like two weapons I care about lol
last epoch on pc is everything i wanted with destiny not as customizable but the builds and mechanics and features in the game are 10/10 still won’t touch d2 tho evan couldn’t get me this time great vid love the honesty
Haven't played much (not because I dislike it by the way, but because I'm wrapping up some relic weapons in FFXIV so I'm more available). If anything, this mode reignited a desire to play again, I feel bad for doubting the devs honestly.
Admittedly, I feel like a hypocrite for pre-ordering now (a friend talked me into it after a few hours of Onslaught, he also said he'd reimburse me the $50 if the expansion didn't live up to expectations). I'll be getting the first episode for the standard edition from what I read, so Bungie has until June 28th to persuade me to buy the rest (June 28th is Dawntrail early access, the meat and potatoes for my Summer, basically). I'm keeping my expectations realistic but I'm going in with a bit more hope now than before.
I'm also glad you aren't referring to someone like me as a hater. Yes there were assholes hating just to hate, but my harsh criticism came from a place of desire to see the game improve. I started playing D1 back in 2013(?), so I was a young teenager at the age of 13. I loved the world. I'm 24 now, a person who's nearing their mid-20s, so imagine the morale loss I felt after Lightfall which launched when I was 23. It struck hard, I fear for games I love going bad
I'm glad you don't have blinders on.
I’m playing after a 8+ month break, it’s fun for now. But I can still see all the issues with pvp that made me walk away the first time, I’m a 1.65kd player, not the best but I atleast know what’s going on.
I cant even do the exotic mission for this season im scared for this content
Ive been playing destiny on and off since its conception. The old weapons coming back are familiar which helps because all the new stuff confuses me.
Honestly this is really good for my friend. He just started with the like free stuff from epic games a while ago. And obviously he doesnt have anything. So a free update that brought him to 1810. Pretty good weapons to farm so he also gets legendary shards for what good theyre used for till theyre gone. And its something im not gonna be bored playing with.
i love Destiny since 1's CBT, and it's nice
I tried to come back and play yesterday, but the game didnt give me the quest and i was locked out of playing into the light. I swear its like this game just doesnt want me to play it
You have to go to shaxx and pick it up lol scroll to his second page. It’s there.
The Strangers Rifle is actually cracked tho
I like that one a lot I think they should bring it back with out a time limit on it
I hope they bringing more "banned weapons" ITL loot pool after Final Shape. I love this new game mode but I don't wanna this thing be a one time thing after we got the god roll each weapon that we currently have right now.
Haha, I was just playing Onslaught and listing to your “why the curse of Osiris sucks” video
I honestly adore all the changes as someone who used to play Destiny religiously. Used to, being a key word. The lay-offs, the money grubbing, and the absolutely ENORMOUS file the game is really rubbed me the wrong way and I don’t think I’ll go back.
However! I sincerely hope all the New Lights and Old Guardians have fun with The Final Shape and Lightfall. If you need me, I’ll be happily playing Warframe. Wish y’all well!
Guess i can finally open my collectors edition
I would love to play destiny 2 again but my internet is not good enough I don't have unlimited data like I used to and dlc is too expensive but Bungie might be able to come back from almost extrection
This is nostalgia that’s all don’t know why will u be hyped for this if u played the og
Because it's fun and something to do
@@devilghostface8798all the players left from destiny 2 look like people with Stockholm syndrome how are they like fucking bungie why isn't it possible 🖕
I’m back been about a year lots to catch up on 😁
So.... I need to grind again for the weapons I had that they sun-setted.
Elsie's rifle is a good pvp option too
I was so hype for this but quickly realized is a massive grind for weapons that I had already grinded before. Still don't know if it worth the time.
Yeah, but those old ones are power capped, irrelevant and lack the new perk pool 9n the updated versions, and of course they're shaded different. The weapons start to drop like crazy too.
Anyway, as someone who had all of the old versions myself, I highly recommend getting the new ones 👏
@@grizzlybehr1902 also the activity is kinds fun at last and not that boring as i was expecting. also the rolls drop like crazy if you go a full 50 wave run
its not actually too bad of a grind, maybe 30 mins per weapon quest if you do it in onslaught or 45 mins if you do them anywhere else
@@grizzlybehr1902They should’ve never power capped them in the first place
@@grizzlybehr1902 they are only power capped and irrelevant because Bungie chose to do that to them, they didn't naturally fade out of the meta, Bungie nuked them out of existence.
2:21 sir that word is not concerned
huh, i may start playing again with this drop (vanilla D2 player)
I absolutely hated the whisper, several things I needed to look up a guide to figure out where to go as the game does a poor job of indicating that and there’s several jumps that are almost impossible with my character
this is so good
We need more history videos. Even if you re-do some.
Had a blast yesterday, played all day. Can’t wait to jump on again today!
Tbh, the way the content gets released feels less like their "cornered" and more annoyed. They have enough money to fuel their pockets for the rest of their lives. They basically said it themselves: they don't care anymore and are ditching the company once TFS and Marathon come out. If they were truly concerned about the company's profits, they would never have dipped so low again after CoO. They are using this as bait to get us to buy TFS then dip when they get the money resurgence. Honestly, I'll play into the light since it's free, and I actually do like it; however, I'm still not buying TFS until videos drop and I can see it's improvements first. I think that's how most people are going about it anyway.
Elsie's Rifle is baller. In PvP especially. Even pve it's decent with the right roll.
When i played it was pretty good
To be honest NoGun seem to be needed since final shape is all about abilitys lollll
Hey y’all… im a destiny fan since the first game. But I have not touched destiny 2 since light fall… is it good now for returning players? Or is it “ easy” for returning players ? Thanks !
Now it’s probably the best time if your looking to play Final Shape, since into the light gives you a gift box that brings you up to light with weapons and armor. The new dungeons were very good as well if your into that
I’d probably say so, I highly recommend playing for at least the seasonal story before final shape
Wait until after the time gate. Bungie will increase the drop rates and you'll have wasted less time attaining the weapons you've already grinded for in the past.
Seeing things getting unsun set I uhhhh don't trust them. Because now the question of why in the first place comes up. And nearly any answer makes them look bad.
I also wish that the banner was from the seal triumph and not from 50 wave legend the IRL stuff you can get shouldve been the reward
it actually said CORNERED not CONCERNED, there as no "c" after the "n". Hope this helps 👍
so i haven't Played this game but if i buy the end game version will i get previous DLC free or do i have to buy every DLC ? there is not much info and to buy it all is just not affordable
The community has learned
EVEN if you are gonna pre order wait until 1-2 months out than you can spend your cash
that way bungo knows you dont get money less you release content
BUUUUUT no one will do that so don't expect more free updates for a few years
Came back after years of not playing for my baby midnight coupe . Yeah definitely not worth it lmao . Two exotic quests but one is time gated . The one that is available is also time gated.
Of the weapons available rn
Recluse is mid af , absolutely butchered our favorite spider .
Falling guillotine . This weapon was never sunset ? So uh cool ig
Oh boy my third reprisal of hung jury yippppeeeee . Yet another hung jury to not give a shit about because scouts are trash . Edge tranzit because haha remember this gun dropped a lot ? It’s ok , really good dps option but destiny has never been hurting for good dps options . Elsie’s rifle? It’s good I’m not going to lie , but it’s practically void messenger. Succesion is cool , minus the fact I have 7 different god roll snipers in my vault “just in case “ they are good for dps one day .
A lot of the weapons are just nostalgia bait . The mode itself is ok . It’s fun but feels like it’s desperately lacking a missing piece . The extra time gates for the exotic quests , their unlocked perks and the other 6 weapons makes this promising return to destiny into a meh I see why I left
Can you change the character for free anytime? Like i can change and if i didnt like it i can change it again right?
Can't wait for your video the subclass that broke the internet and pvp prismatic
The changes sound great, but I feel like they took too long, I waited for a long time for the game to improve, but now I don't even feel like trying it anymore. I hope things get better for everyone still in the game.
I had played since the start of Destiny but stopped about 6 months ago. There has been nothing to draw me back until now but I am going to jump in for super black because I am that shallow. If I get good rolls on guns I’ve already had, that is fine. I hope it is fun.
Elsie's rifle is arguably the best legendary pulse in the game for pvp. 100 percent the best energy pulse. Only competiton is messenger.
Im likeing the drop rates but i feel like getting envious explosive light or bns is bugged and never will drop lol on edge transit
Is it just me or the video is abosutely bugging out on the CZcams mobile app end?
bout ur loot section, stranger rifle is p much the best in slot pulse (pvp), and yes edge transit is best in slot heavy gl with better dps/total dmg than the likes of apex predator, recluse is ok (bit meh nowadays tbh), and yes ur right bout hung jury.... Idfk whey they reintroduce it for the 4th time.
Just give me my mountaintop back already
elsie's rifle is NUTS in pvp
The tldr is no. I’m tired of giving my time and money to companies who don’t respect either.
Helldivers to Hellpods!
I want my hammerhead and im curious what it can get on it when it comes out
It’s upper management… Sony has even said recently that bug is just isn’t held accountable and run well and that needs to change… I got optimism from bungie in the future for sure
So is it worth getting back into it 😭
I was wondering how do I get that limited edition weapon I am veteran in destiny 2 but this is the first time I ever heard of this
Good analysis as always, evanf1997. You can be cynical/skeptical and enjoy the update at the same time. You don't have to choose. :)
Destiny was always a fun game, I just never thought the weekly/seasonal treadmill was fun, and I still hate the sunsetting/DCV. It's why I never came back. True it keeps the player count up when you're always doing something every week / season, but there is a finite number of times I can to do anything before it gets old. Bungie knows that and they know they have to do something new once in a while. thanks to the DCV and sunsetting, they can just bring back old good things once in a while for the shot in the arm the game needs, and bring in some new stuff. It's a formula that works.
So, this update is probably a good one. It reminds me of the April Update in TTK (April 2016), which basically was a free update with QOL changes, some new content and it laid the framework for the rest of D1. It was awesome. Hope you Guardians enjoy it.
I skipped the new light in the brand new account. It locked the vangaurd strike for me. Can't access it.
ocarina of time has some of the best video game music
You're unlocking good memories with the background music ❤
We are so back
Before they put this game on life support when the fuck are they bringing the vault back into the game
never... i guess... they would have to remake it, and i have a feeling they dont wanna do that.
What in the world do you mean?
@@lordpumpkinhead265 the sunsetted content. they might bring back a few of the raids.
We are soooooo back
I’ve been away for months now .I lost interest way before but kept chipping away ..
Is it just a horde mode, weapons removed given back ?” Reprised “
we're so back
Honest take.
From me and my clan who have all quit. Great update, but it's too little too late.
2:20 between this and the "aydoleon alley" think from the Crota vid, i don't think you're beating the dyslexic allegations
