I got into Destiny 2 about a year ago when Forsaken released. I looked at some of the community and I saw the same thing again and again: Destiny 1 is better than Destiny 2. I see that the feelings are still very strong to this day and I wanted to ask:
Are Destiny 1 and it's expansions worth getting today?
I have never played Destiny one, so I don't know how populated it is, but it seems like a much more positively received experience. Please let me know if it is worth the money or effort.

There’s some QOL issues that were changed in D2 (sprint cooldown, ledge grab, applying shaders to individual pieces) but when it comes to content replayability, unique loot, making interesting builds and feeling powerful D1 is the way to go. The player population is smaller than D2 but there’s still quite a few people. I even logged onto my PS3 Taken King account and the Tower on PS3 had a full page of people in the Tower, which is about 12 people in one server. Matchmaking for some of the more niche activities can be spotty, but for the main playlists things still matchmake quickly. And there’s quite a few active LFGs for everything D1, the one I use primarily is the PS4 community Destiny’s Destiny. Met a few great guys through that and had some good times. So I’d say get it. There’s a bit of getting used to to be done, but it’s a blast that I’ve actually done on multiple accounts. Also, ensure you buy from the console virtual store as all physical copies have expired

It was good ...but just remember. Things that D2 has that D1 doesnt. Fast travel... Traveling from planet to planet. Bullets that hit opponents you aim at. No sprint cooldown. Class abilities. Things d1 has that D2 doesnt have.. Sparrow racing. Sparrow horns.

1 返信If you want, it's up to you.... I might delete a character and play through D1 again :) Wonder if ppl still raid. I loved D1 raids, couldn't wait for Tuesday each week....

No. Or honestly do what you think you should A lot of the "D1 is so good" posts are just nostalgia (yes you can experience nostalgia even if you're still playing D1) D2 honestly did make quite a few improvements, but then it also messed up in other areas. They're surprisingly equal in terms of overrall quality though. If I had to give them an overrall rating I'd say d2 is a 73% and D1 is a 72.5% C- for the both of them.

2 通の返信Destiny 1 is better in a lot of ways, especially in the Crucible. Unfortunately, with a smaller player base, it's harder to get matched up with others. Matchmaking takes forever in PvP, unless you are playing the weekly play list. There's also no Iron Banner there anymore. If you can find people to play with, their strikes are fantastic. Heroic Strikes, in particular. Same goes for Prison of Elders and Archon's Forge. Great events.

2 通の返信The game is awesome. If you use Three of Coins during strikes, nightfall, anything really, you’ll get exotic engrams. Not every time but the chances jump significantly. Xur has them and it’s Friday. Crucible.... with all the piece of shit red bars(terrible internet connections), it gets frustrating quickly. Plus, getting a match going, outside the weekly featured crucible, is almost impossible. But D1 is Super Busy!!! PS4’s community has LFG’s( Destiny’s Destiny). Raids constantly

There are still people playing D1. You see them at the tower and in patrol areas and strikes. I went back during rollback #1 and #2 and play sometimes when bored of D2. Patrolled Venus, plaguelands, did most of the campaign missions. Went back and patrolled the Dreadnaught even did several Court of Oryx events with 3-4 blueberries. Had some friends decide to join me and ran Prison Of Elders. Killed Skolas again. Good times

6 通の返信If you want to play the campaigns solo, D1 could be fun. But it's not going to be well populated. In general matchmaking might take forever and I don't believe there's much if any support still for it. The BIG thing is crucible... I don't know this for sure, but I imagine there are no casuals left in D1, meaning the only people still playing crucible there are hard-core sweats who worked so long in that system they never wanted to leave. Just some thoughts. Destiny is a community based current game. But again if you want the campaign solo experience, give it a go!

No abilities nerfed due to pvp pvssies, no weapons reworked in the name of that illusive "balance" bungie uses to excuse their constant tweaking. I'm on xbox and it's even got a built in lfg feature so i have no trouble matching with others when i choose to
