Just get In Ishtar Collective it is a great lore website

I replayed that vex mission just yesterday, it was great. And it actually jarred me hearing my Guardian speak. I find your perspective (as a D1 player who still plays D1 more than D2) on Vex interesting and insightful. They are presented rather light heartedly in D2 (all except the Cabal are really) There is a grittier tone in D1 that is not there in D2 that continues to undercut the severity of events and enemies we encounter in D2. It continually disengages my immersion. Every PE with some sort of snarky NPC comment at the end. Majority of campaign dialogue. Our ghost. Cayde takes nothing serious. Nothing feels serious. The only thing less immersive to me is the D2 power scaling of enemies which prevent the feeling of our guardian ever being more powerful than when we started.

Honestly it would be a great deal. Get D1 with all the DLC's that come with it for the price of around a new game. It's a stupidly good deal, though I don't know if people still do raid bosses in D1.

Vex were only relevant in vanilla and their story didn’t even make sense.

D1 is awesome and is definitely worth playing. Make sure to enjoy the ability to 're-roll weapons in the house of wolves part. I still miss my custom guns...

D1 is better than D2. I still play due to the sunken cost fallacy.

Please do yourself a favor and get it. D1 has so much content to go through and there are still a good number of people signed on.

I would just to also get the other things with PlayStation, but yea D1 was a lot better. You’ll still be missing out on Dinklebot though but you’ll see more of why we miss D1.

Get a ps4 and d1 and do vault of glass best raid ever

Lore

You will love My name is Byf’s youtube channel. If you haven’t found it yet. He is the lore god of Destiny :)

For comparison Destiny 2 = I have more fun taking a shit. Destiny = I had so much fun I didn't even take a shit. Seriously if you have friends/people to raid with In d1 you'll have a very good time. You have so much content it's unbelievable. Sadly bungie removed iron banana and trials from it because they knew that d2 will fail. PvP was also not so fun anymore (but still 500 times better than destiny 0.5[2]) at the end because like my point before bungie knew that d2 will fail. - You have way more gamemodes - Way more PvP maps - Way better looking weapons (not 7 - 8 reskins) - 5/"6" patrolable areas - Prison of elders/challenge of elders (fun "horde" mode) - 4 raids (1 is soloable) - Many strikes (all better than destiny 0.5s shit strikes) - Better modifiers (there are even stronger negative modifiers but unlike in d2 you feel like a god in endgame so you are way stronger than those negative modifiers) - Better exotics (gjallarhorn epic mission) - Quests - Bounties - Legendaries are stronger than blues, greens (unlike d0.5) - My level 10 titan felt stronger/faster than my max level vanilla d0.5 titan - you have skill trees where you can choose how you want to play (3 subclasses 3 supers but every super has 3 different choices, example: Warlocks sunsinger super Part 1: grenades recharge faster Part3 : you can revive yourself Titan fist of panic Part 1: you just slam on the floor 1 time and there will be an aftermath effect Part 2: you fly like superman from air and hit the ground (1 time) Part 3: you slam 1 time and the slam is around yourself and also there is an arc wave attacking stuff in front of you - you kill gods not dog's (xol and nokris got thrown away for a fat cabal in d2) - collectibles (ghosts, which give you lore and you can read about it somewhere ((back in d1 you could read about it in the app)) ) - primary, special, heavy weapons Back in the day when people were intelligent enough to not put snipers in one slot with ROCKET launchers. - random/more/better perks on weapons (god rolls are also available and they are huge fun) If you like the points than you'll love destiny 1.

If you’re playing Destiny for the lore, you might as well just look up the Grimoire and read it all. The “lore” of Destiny is almost as nonexistent in D1 as it is in D2.

D2 as a whole is a joke.

😏 Now do you understand why we are so pissed about the history repeating itself? It’s like we are simply in a simulation... of the Vex... trying to cut us out of the Destiny pattern...😯😯

I don't think you'll get much satisfaction lore wise. But if playing D1 for the first time, you will get addicted.

I dont think you can go to d1 from d2 it wouldn’t feel right the reason all of us always say d1 was better is because this was the first game on console that was like this the first time on console I got 5 good friends together and we did atheons raid for 8 hours straight the most fun I have ever had in a video game by far you cannot recreate that feeling of destiny 1 after playing destiny 2 you have to think when d1 came out ? First huge game on that generation of console huge loot grind and again something none of us had played before a lot of console players never played WOW of any other mmo so a game that was basically a mmo with RAIDS on CONSOLE that was why d1 was so special to us and after the three years of destiny 1 was done everyone was used to it . I don’t think people love d1 because of d1 I think they love d1 because it was there first experience with a mmorpg type game first game to do weekly raids first game to farm dungeons(strikes) for loot first game to have everything that they have never played I 100 percent promise you and anyone here a person like me or anyone else who has done everything in destiny 1 from alpha and they have done atheons and it was their first real raid type experience there will be nothing that can top that feeling with anything destiny 2 can offer but if you have already played destiny 2 the only thing that would be worth doing I guess would be doing the story tbh even that probably isn’t worth it now
