Ok. I've been gone since POE and the Fallen King, and I've decided to come back after learning Activision is out of the picture (Good for you Bungie). However there's has been a bunch of stuff that has happen and no explanation as to how or why. My friend told me that everything would be explained after the first mission "where you are going to fight in the tower", but none of that happen. Instead it was Destiny 1 all over again, and had to go through the cosmodrone. I get to the tower and the place is a maze filled with people moping around telling me to get them. Go get who? Why? At this point the story feels so disjointed that I'm having a hard time carrying. It feels like it's not my battle to fight.
A quick Google search later I learn that I'm missing a big story line mission called Homecoming that's supposed to unite Destiny 1 and 2, but I guess the new light update took that out in favor of the Destiny 1 intro. WHY? Why does it make sense to relive the beginning of the game if your suddenly going to be dumped a completely different reality? None of this makes sense and it has put a bad taste in my mouth already. Now everything I see wrong triggers me and makes want to quit, like the lack of indicators of where I'm supposed to go next for the main story line, been playing for 2 days and I've yet to play a campaign mission.
Not good, not good at all. Hopefully I'm missing something and someone here can point me to the right direction, or this is going to be a short lived e experience.
Update: Went to talk to Amanda and yup, there they are. Started the quest and now I'm on my way to enjoy the story. Thanks all.

Gotta say, you’re a bit late to the party. We’re having a great time with annoying time-robots, weird worm-bugs and playing with triangles. Don’t worry, you’ll know what I mean soon enough.

Talk to Amanda Holliday in the Tower hangar to start the campaigns.
-
Amanda holiday, and don't get so worked up. You've got a lot of free content on your hands so come back when you make a full opinion

Talk to Amanda Holliday.

[head to Amanda Holliday, she’s got all the Y1 campaigns. For the forsaken and shadowkeep campaigns, got to the location where the majority of that dlc happens.]

New Light, or the Destiny 1 intro is just to get you started. It was put in place for people who missed out on everything in the past few years including the entirety of D1. New Light is the introduction to the game as a new Guardian that has been rezzed then goes to the Tower (D2) Destiny operates in real time so the Tower you land in is the same as everyone else's. All campaigns are over with essentially aside from the ongoing storyline of the season. The way campaigns work now are basically retellings of the past D2 stories, and those are accessed through Amanda Holliday in the Tower's Hangar. Campaign story missions will be replayable quests from her inventory.

From what I've been hearing, Bungie really screwed the pooch on the new light experience with new and returning players. They apparently cut out all the integral parts of the D2 introduction and left an empty desert of an experience with no real direction that new players are just dropping out of out of pure confusion. Another Bungie failed experiment.

Are you lost narratively or do you not know what to do

Edited by Regiampiero: 10/16/2019 6:25:20 PMWell crap! I downloaded the game to play the story (as that was one of the few things I liked about destiny 1) and I'm slapped with this reality. I guess I'll be putting this down as pvp is not my cup of tea. Bungie if you decide to fix this, let it be know and I'll come back. If not, I guess Warframe will have to do. Thanks everyone for the help.

Edited by rrrRandyyy: 10/16/2019 10:32:03 PMSave yourself heartache and frustration and just choose another company to invest your hard earned money with. Bungie have lost all credibility as developer and can no longer produce respectable content nor provide adequate communication with it's own damn community.

After playing for a bit you'll wish activision was back in the picture...
-
Sadly with New Light you need to actively start the campaigns yourself.
-
Look on your mini map and talk to Amanda Holliday in the Hangar. Reportedly, she gives out the questlines
-
And you know what the worst part is? RAHN WASN’T IN NEW LIGHT! THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! [spoiler]I heard you need to talk to Amanda to start campaigns.[/spoiler]
-
Unfortunately you're correct, new light is a mess. If it helps I've heard you need to speak to Amanda Holiday to get the campaign going now. She's in the hangar area.
