True Destiny Veterans will remember going to the top left of the map, jumping on the crates to get on top of the metal poles, walking pas the death barrier in one spot, then going right on the pole and then spam jump to legit fly across the tower to land on top of the vaults.

i still do the vault glitch to this day and try to teach newer players when i can. i cannot for the life of me cannot remember the ship glitch though id have to find a video on it
The Vex Mythoclast pre-nerf was one of the most powerful pvp weapons of all time. And because very few people had it in the beginning due to it being an exotic raid weapon meant they dominated every single match they were in.
If you don't remember hearing that sound in a match and watching the entire lobby quit out before the second kill, you're not a Destiny OG. There's broken, and then there's the original Vex Mythoclast.
It was so rare and powerful that many people thought the vex mythoclast was actually a myth and not a real weapon until a few weeks after the raid launched and it became more common
I straight up cannot believe I did the original thorn bounty. I was addicted to vanilla D1 but I wasn’t all that much if a skilled or hardcore player but I got that bounty done. It’s literally the only serious Destiny content I completed outside of casually playing crucible and beating the campaigns. As it turned out, I didn’t even like thorn. I deleted to get whatever materials dropped from it and decided to move on with my life. At the end of the very next match I got a random exotic weapon I had never even heard of to randomly drop in the post game screen. That was my introduction to the last word, and the rest is history. Poetry.
The Last Word in D1 was my favorite weapon allways loved being a Gunslinger and tapping guys from insane range. I still remember when the Meta was TLW, Thorn and HM.
I’m like you then (since I started in D2) but I like working for the exotics especially if it’s a quest or even if I have to play pvp all day. It’s the grind for the weapon and seeing it drop for the first time rather than getting it to use it (depending on the exotic cause when Last word dropped I’ve used it til for a few seasons 😂)
I remember xur selling icebreaker and being 1 strange coin short, and how happy I was to have one drop from a public event. I think I had more of those 'happy moments' in D1.
@@BlockyRaptor I got every exotic in D1(took my soul away lol) but in D2 they always add new ones so I never have all of them by the end of the season so even tho exotics are more "common" they is so many more that it's almost impossible to have them all unlike D1 where there was very few
Same I can't believe I've been playing a game for that long and still enjoy it. Or that I've spent so many hours one it. But I still remember the first time exploring the cosmodrome with dinkle bot for the first time. That's a moment I wish I could experience again.
I remember being 13 when destiny was announced and i followed it religiously, watching every video of new info i could find every day until it finally released. Played it just about every day until D2 came out. Im 22 now and I still think its the best game ever.
Also the time in destiny 1 where infusing weapons and armour didn't upgrade it to the dismantled item's light level. You had to use an online calculator to figure out what level your light would increase to.
That was one of the most annoying times omg. I hated the infusion back then and I remmber some players literally grinding a weapon over and over just to get it at higher light to avoid infusing
11:33 *Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.* - Only D1 user knows :D
I recently jumped back into D2 trying out Dares of Eternity and when I heard Xur quote the start of this infamous line I lost it. The entire game mode is just one banger of a joke after the next.
There was also a loot cave on Venus in D1 that worked similar to the one on Earth. You just had to jump up the side of the building to "leave" the area and the mobs would spawn back in.
I remember all of these. Another one you didn't mention was the self-rezzing Warlock. Warlocks had a perk in their solar subclass that would allow them to revive themselves if they were killed while they had a full super. When you self-rezzed, you were a lot tankier than usual for about 30 seconds, and you could spam grenades. If you had the solar grenades equipped with the Exotic gauntlets that gave you an extra grenade, you could cause mayhem in PvP. You'd get suicidal Warlocks rushing a capture point, dying on the point, then waiting for the whole team to congregate on the capture point, only to self rez and wipe the team with grenade spam. You could also be a LOT more gung-ho in PvE and take WAY more risks than Hunters or Titans could, because you knew that if you died, you could jump straight back up and retreat while spamming grenades. Self-Rez warlocks were the only ones who could do the 'pushing enemies off the edge' tactic in the Atheon raid by spamming grenades to force bosses backwards off a ledge for an easy win lol. Oh yeah, that reminds me, Hunters (in their Arc subclass) could go invisible for long periods too! You could literally build them specifically for invisibility! It allowed them to solo the lamps in the Crota raid with ease (and made them the perfect swordbearers at the final fight against Crota), and also made them clutch in harder activities like Nightfalls. If they were last man standing, they could keep the strike alive and not get everyone kicked back to orbit just by turning invisible, hiding for a bit, then sneaking around reviving everyone.
Legendary fate bringer had arc (as well as the other primaries) Pushing atheon off the edge. Camping at the top wall of Templar. Being able to one phase strike bosses bc they didn’t get immunity phases. Sword swinging across the gulch to pass the totems on Crota, lamp launching in the begging area of Crota’s end. Riding your sparrow through the door on VOG to complete the spire check point. Destiny LFG was better. The Suros was cracked early game and everyone wanted it. So many more I can’t remember. Good times
I remember getting an "up the ante" handcannon with all better stats than the last word, fire rate included (stat wise but it still fired slower) which was my favorite year one weapon Correction: everything but impact and fire rate were better on the up the ante hand cannon, those two were the same on both
OH god this brings back memories of the early days of destiny. No mantling, you fall to your death and you'll LIKE IT! Ammo Synths, those things were life savers back in the day. The Loot cave... one of the things that, at the time as a new player, I only took advantage of once or twice before Bungie shut that down. I was also forever 29 for a good while. It took me months to get the Vault to finally drop the pieces I needed to be level 30. I just went onto DIM to just look at what my gear was at the time. Looks like I stopped playing D1 right around a halloween event as I still have a bunch of masks in my inventory. Good times.
I remember doing leviathan before when there werent raid banners and obviously no heavy ammo synths so we would have to farm the ads in the encounters for ammo to drop
3:15 it was actually stated and acknowledged that the loot cave was no more efficient than running basic strikes they patched it due to players raging when other people would stand in the cave and turn it off
Don't forget the grind to get Chaperone in D1. It had a very similar bounty to Thorn's but you were forced to have a positive k/d in order to get progress and i believe the progress u gained differed depending on how good your k/d was every single game.
Oh those were the worst! You would have a few good games and be at like 56% progress and then have one bad game and be back to like 40% it was absolutely infuriating that was one of the best changes they made is removing that quest line!
Honestly as a D1 vet there are a few things I prefer in D1 over D2: Exotics: these were items that were meant to be super rare but also the best of the best, and in D1 they showed that making them incredibly difficult to obtain but then them also being extremely dominant in all kinds of content, however, in D2 they no longer hold that sparkle of getting them and they don't live up to what an exotic was back in D1 with most of the exotics in D2 being completely irrelevant and unusable in a meta. Artifacts: D1 artifacts were just amazing and fun to use, each having their own unique effect and being able to strategise on what artifact to use in which content was honestly amazing, plus being able to mix and match artifacts in a team was also awesome. Now in D2 the "artifact" isn't really an artifact anymore. Its just an item that gives temporary mods and nothing else. Activities: D2 has some amazing activities don't get me wrong, however there was always something special about going into places like crotas end, prison of elders, nightfalls and the such with just a fireteam of friends that D2 just doesn't really give anymore. Nightfalls: in D1 nightfalls were the end game, anyone could do them as log as they had atleast 1 other person but they were insanely difficult causing players to have to push themselves to their limits. Now in D2 nightfalls are a joke, the only difficult piece of nightfalls are grandmasters, but finding players to so them with (along with the ever rising power cap) has made it so that only a select few who have access to alot of content (able to easily do raids and such) can really do them semi often. Factions: these were a fun side thing to do while doing other content. These offered cool rewards, with my favourite being the exotic class items (I really want them to bring these back where each one buffs a subclass for that class but each gives different buffs (kinda like D1 artifacts I guess with their unique buffs)) Gear: D2 has some good gear, but nothing beats the looks of alot of the d1 gear, looking like you're being taken, corrupted by siva, wearing hive shells and even the exotic gears looked amazing, my favourite being when I was a warlock main with the winged helmet exotic that started health regen when you picked up orbs. It wasn't a good effect, but it looked cool. And last but not least: Vaulting: D1 had no vaulting, nuff said Edit: the helmet was "Light beyond nemesis" and by vaulting I mean the vaulting of content.
it actually did vault content. alot of weapons and armor became unobtainable from dark below and vanilla. the only way to get dark below and vanilla weapons was getting lucky with a legendary engram from dragon strikes. which was nearly impossible but still a chance. then taken king removed those strikes and re-sunsetted all the previous expansions and vanilla, even though house of wolfs literally just un-sunsetted all weapons and armor. because the taken king just had to take literally fucking everything including exotics. literally removed more than it added. still pissed about it. but they did bring back a decent amount of those guns and armor later on though. buts its not even close to the insanity that is destiny 2 removing whole planets, campaigns, activities, weapons, armor, etc. even if some were bad. as dumb as it is removing anything, I'd much rather go the destiny 1 route.
@@JoeMama-qt5go ah ok. I didn't know that. Still though the vaulting in D1 compared to D2 is as if there was no vaulting at all. D1 removed a few strikes and as such a few weapons. D2 removed their entire base game plus 2 expansions and parts of forsaken. Tbh I'm more pissed at the excuse they gave in a recent interview about the vaulting. They said something along the lines of "we will not be vaulting anything from the beginning of the light and dark saga which we believe is shadowkeep." When I saw that I was like "bruh wtf". The light and dark saga started all the way back in D1 wirh the black garden with each DLC continuing on the story in some capacity or having some knock on effect to the what's happening now.
These times was great I stopped playing destiny all together about 1 year ago bc 2 wasn't cutting it I ended up going back to 1 and getting all my old raid teams to run 1 last time before I completely dropped out from destiny I wish they would've just continued with 1 it would've been so much better and easier
Yeah I remember the loot cave we stood there for hours shooting at that cave in order to get resources that's how I got my Icebreaker. It would have been nice if they would have brought Icebreaker Devil's Dawn Ash Factory The First Curse back to Destiny those are weapons I would love to see. Although ice breaker would probably break the game after all ice breaker was literally one shotting bosses.
When was Ice Breaker one shotting bosses? It was never a matter of too high dps, it was a good pick because you didn’t need to rely on rng ammo drops or synthesizers. Bungie can definitely rework it to fit in D2, making it consume super energy to create ammo for instance, then it’s a considerable trade off.
@@tristanlambert658 no it did one shot bosses but that's when it very first came out later they nerfed it and because it never needed ammo because it would just reset its ammo it became a must to use for long range enemies like spider tanks.
10:52 just wanna add something about the artifacts my dad had this one artifact where if you hit an enemy in pve with a melee attack there was a chance that the enemy you just melee would temporarily be a friendly it was pretty fun to mess around with and I think The maximum of friendly enemies you could have was four or five
I want ammo synths to come back and be allowed in end game. Day 1 Warpriest is a prime example of why they need to make changes for some parts of the game. Other parts I have more heavy than I need but I'd rather have too much in a raid than not enough.
I'd rather have an update to how the ammo economy works overall. Would probs shoot myself if a quick fix to not having heavy was to go into my menu mid-encounter to consume something lol.
@@Moonlight-ux5ln yea I agree. Even tho the raid banner system isn't too bad, the real issue is ur inability to use them whenever u want. Best example of this is shattered throne... I mean they just never added the banner so we can't get ammo in it period.
I remember the good ole days of destiny 1, I am a d1 beta vet. I still am waiting for the return of Icebreaker. Still glad they brought back Eyasluna, 1000-yard stare, and matador. But definitely more exotics I wish thry'd bring back like Bones of Eao.
This is a blast from the past, i returned to D2 about a week ago after a year hiatus and was flicking through the legacy thing on the character select screen. Thorn carried me to my first Trials flawless. I D1 had some good stuff in it and i didnt realise how good we have now in D2. Nice video dude.
oh i remember Randal the Vandal thing tanked 3 shots from a golden gun.. rocket to the face and maybe 20 or so mags from assault rifle.. guy was more tanky than Oryx
I'm still smashing D1 to this day(took a 4 year hiatus). I'm about to do the daily bounties and weekly strikes in a couple hours actually. Nothing compares to D1 and the feeling it gave.
You know as a Destiny 2 starter, I wish I played the 1st one for the memories. And most of the exotics looked dope af. I actually watched a lot of really old reviews of D1 exotic drops and they don’t give that same special feel now. So I always enjoy these kinda vids! Edit: Tf did Master Rahool do?!? 😂😂😂 Edit 2: Imagine with Destiny 2 has some of the same things from one with the Mechanics from 2 (obviously not that broken ass self res bs 😂)
Nah self res needs to come back. Man it was when your whole team was dead and you all self res and absolutely destroy the enemy team. It was a super that truly needed skill to use.
Had to play when started, Croats end raid was awesome, hard mode was lvl 33 and we were all 32 was fun doing it day one and kings fall challenge oryx awesome too
Back in the Crota's End days, where the meta loadout was Fatebringer, Black Hammer, and Gjallarhorn. That loadout got me through so many raids and Nightfalls, I do miss them days sometimes, despite how busted it all was
Oh my god the memories you brought back! Like the glitch of getting on the tower sniping with ice breaker when doing the Crota raid to get across the bridge! Damn I miss D1
So basically what i learned from this is… companies have gotten so greedy they take out things we need and now have to buy because they havnt made enough from us buying the game already
I used to love the ridiculous difficulty of nightfalls in D1, I was a hunter main and my team always made me play bladedancer so I could go invisible and res them all the time lol
I remember during year 1, very early Destiny like 2 months in, I got the Suros Regime and it did like 50 damage headshots in the crucible, it was so broken.
Everything in this video is how destiny still is to me. I had to stop playing d1 around 2016 but I started when it first came out. I have started d2 about 2 months ago cus I finally could and I love it but it isn't how d1 was. Loved that game man. So many memories.
On the thumbnail there's the glowy orb thing that let you fast forward thru content in d1 right? I accidentally used one and my brother was sad about it, was it a paid item?
Man Pocket Infinity was my first exotic. And as a loner PvE player, I just grinded the beginning of a nightfall for that final step to “earn” that broken-ass fusion rifle. I didn’t even like it. But it did give me the start to my collection and I’ll never forget that.
Future War Cult had a rocket launcher that was close to Gjallarhorn. It held 3 rounds and had tracking and clusters. I used that when I needed another exotic in another slot.
I miss Y1 Destiny. It was a blast. I kind of quit after they messed with the zoom on snipers. I went from playing 24/7 and trying to go flawless w/ snipers in every slot with my friends to not really playing destiny anymore. I came back recently and its been fun so far, but this video really takes me back. Icebreaker :( OP vex mythoclast, the thorn glory days. Fun times
I also miss the lens changes in D1 later on where you could add a certain colour effect or black and white to your whole screen. My wife and I really enjoyed that fun feature.
Man i really enjoyed Destiny 1, i miss the memories with my friend Lou. It was sad starting D2 and getting the flashbacks of him and i completing major milestones and one frame is both of our characters, and then the next abd following were just me. He didn't due or anything, he just gave up on Destiny and stopped playing. But aside from him and I teaming up, ive only ever been a solo player. To this day ive never completed a single raid or dungeon, and was only barely able to complete ONE GM nightfall to get Sleeper Simulant
Ice Breaker was my first Exotic in Destiny and it quickly became my favorite. I mastered sniping and took the role whenever there was a need in the VOG raid. It’s the one I wish they would bring back into D2.
Mine was hardlight. I remember making a new character and getting it thru the prison of elders just to get my guaranteed exotic at the chest and then deleting the character to do it all over again haha
Man, D1 stuff brings back memories. I remember getting the Supremecy and being only one of the handful of people in my friends that had one. And that Thorn bounty was a drag. Having friends ask me to do their PvP part since they never did it but it was just so much fun back then
Started playing D1 towards the end of the lifecycle but never got hooked. Played D2 consistently until about a bit after Forsaken. Been returning to play on and off and it's been crazy seeing how it's changed over the years. Also sad to see everyone that was in the clan I was in has left.
I remember the day I got the thorn bounty finally, it was like May 2015 and I had gotten the batch of exotic mentor missives with Super Good Advice twice already, and I finally got Thorn's batch. I got to grinding only to see that 500 void points step, started it, then had to go out to dinner and couldnt say no because I was only 14 at the time, so I spent some time at the restaurant doing some nerd math in my phones notes app to see how many more kills I needed and wrote down what weapons would probably be best to use since it was void damage only for progress. Great times, really miss being a kid.
Oh icebreaker...... I MISS YOU SO MUCH DXXXXX Also I do miss the end result screen for matches and strikes where you can see your teammates rewards. Its always so fascinating to see what your teammate gets.
I was talking to a buddy of mine the other day about year 1 d1 and how wild it is to think about playing the game without nightstalker or sunbreaker (and how op stormcaller and hammers were on release)
Wow Patty! That video thumbnail INSTANTLY took me on a NOSTALGIC trip back to D1! Thanks for all the fantastic content you make, for all Destiny players You rock😁👍
You brought me back a lot of good memories, thanks! And how much do I miss my Patience and Time sniper rifle. I remember playing a nightfall on the Moon and using that weapon to become invisible (as a Titan) to get past some powerful wizards, and since I was playing with two young boys, one of them got really surprised to see that.
One thing I remember and hope they do more of, is hidden stuff in the tower during events like the sparrow and the broom you could find in the tower during Festival of the Lost. We are about due for another hidden exotic mission too, I could use another outbreak perfected mission right about now. Wouldn't mind another round of sparrow racing league around Xmas too.🤷
I remember i spent so many hours trying to complete "a light in the dark" when i finished it the feeling was insane when you see that you aquired thorn💥 defeating that wizard was crazy hard
I just got back into this game after years of not playing. The last time I played was on my Xbox 360 back in 2018. The first thing I noticed was where did all of the crafting/upgrading materials go and why can't I buy ammo. Also this seasonal thing is weird. I don't like playing a game and losing progress. If I javelin to be forced to commit to a game to avoid the chance of loosing everything at the end of the season then I just won't play at all. Also why are there two types of levels on my armor?
Man the feels from this. I love destiny. I was drawn to it from the get go and it’s always been a go to through young adulthood. Now I’m engaged and have kid. Mental.
i remember fondly faking having gjallarhorn in crota's end by never taking out my heavy untill we were lined up on the wall. lfgs in d1 were rough to find if you didn't have gjally
Can't believe I've been playing destiny since the first beta 8 years ago, it had its issues but you just had to be there. Also don't forget about that sexy Glowhoo shader that everyone loved
Ah the good ol days of D1, I think I picked up the game right around year 1 or 2, I cant remember which dlc was out at the time but me and another friend started playing together, Those were the days.
crazy how i remember destiny in the beta phase in 6th grade then getting the game when it came out it was my favorite game. and then the first two expansions got announced and got the pass for both the dlcs that’ll come out😩
I remember being pretty new to Destiny when I got the thorn bounty to drop. I sucked at PvP and only had one void weapon so I was struggling with the crucible step until one game... I placed bottom of the leaderboard again, losing all of the little progress I had made. This time, however, I was that one lucky bastard we all hated, and the Hawkmoon dropped for me. I was so overjoyed I deleted the thorn quest and played around with my new gun instead. Needless to say my luck hasn't recovered since

Ahhhh.....I miss hiding under the stairs and taking potshots at his head.
Rip to our Commander.
There was also a loot cave on Venus in D1 that worked similar to the one on Earth. You just had to jump up the side of the building to "leave" the area and the mobs would spawn back in.
Yeah and if you where a warlock with exotic head Obsidian mind you could clear a hole room with a nova bomb and get it back straight away 😅
I remember all of these. Another one you didn't mention was the self-rezzing Warlock. Warlocks had a perk in their solar subclass that would allow them to revive themselves if they were killed while they had a full super.

You could also be a LOT more gung-ho in PvE and take WAY more risks than Hunters or Titans could, because you knew that if you died, you could jump straight back up and retreat while spamming grenades. Self-Rez warlocks were the only ones who could do the 'pushing enemies off the edge' tactic in the Atheon raid by spamming grenades to force bosses backwards off a ledge for an easy win lol.
Oh yeah, that reminds me, Hunters (in their Arc subclass) could go invisible for long periods too! You could literally build them specifically for invisibility! It allowed them to solo the lamps in the Crota raid with ease (and made them the perfect swordbearers at the final fight against Crota), and also made them clutch in harder activities like Nightfalls. If they were last man standing, they could keep the strike alive and not get everyone kicked back to orbit just by turning invisible, hiding for a bit, then sneaking around reviving everyone.
I remember practicing with my friends to line up the sniper shots on self res warlocks in trials. Good times.
Who remembers “Plasma Drive, for those *rare, blue quality sparrows…* “
Legendary fate bringer had arc (as well as the other primaries) Pushing atheon off the edge. Camping at the top wall of Templar. Being able to one phase strike bosses bc they didn’t get immunity phases. Sword swinging across the gulch to pass the totems on Crota, lamp launching in the begging area of Crota’s end. Riding your sparrow through the door on VOG to complete the spire check point. Destiny LFG was better. The Suros was cracked early game and everyone wanted it. So many more I can’t remember. Good times
Suros was my 1st exotic, dropped from Crucible late Nov2014. (Started playing latex Oct). Changed my game!
You forgot one of the firsts : the Loot Cave, but yeah pretty much
I remember getting an "up the ante" handcannon with all better stats than the last word, fire rate included (stat wise but it still fired slower) which was my favorite year one weapon
Correction: everything but impact and fire rate were better on the up the ante hand cannon, those two were the same on both
OH god this brings back memories of the early days of destiny. No mantling, you fall to your death and you'll LIKE IT! Ammo Synths, those things were life savers back in the day. The Loot cave... one of the things that, at the time as a new player, I only took advantage of once or twice before Bungie shut that down. I was also forever 29 for a good while. It took me months to get the Vault to finally drop the pieces I needed to be level 30. I just went onto DIM to just look at what my gear was at the time. Looks like I stopped playing D1 right around a halloween event as I still have a bunch of masks in my inventory. Good times.
Oh How i miss stock piling those heavy ammo kits. They came in so handy when dealing with raid bosses. Perfect for keeping my Gallerhorn ready to go!
Hahaha loved them
I remember doing leviathan before when there werent raid banners and obviously no heavy ammo synths so we would have to farm the ads in the encounters for ammo to drop
3:15 it was actually stated and acknowledged that the loot cave was no more efficient than running basic strikes they patched it due to players raging when other people would stand in the cave and turn it off
Don't forget the grind to get Chaperone in D1. It had a very similar bounty to Thorn's but you were forced to have a positive k/d in order to get progress and i believe the progress u gained differed depending on how good your k/d was every single game.
Oh those were the worst! You would have a few good games and be at like 56% progress and then have one bad game and be back to like 40% it was absolutely infuriating that was one of the best changes they made is removing that quest line!
Honestly as a D1 vet there are a few things I prefer in D1 over D2:
Exotics: these were items that were meant to be super rare but also the best of the best, and in D1 they showed that making them incredibly difficult to obtain but then them also being extremely dominant in all kinds of content, however, in D2 they no longer hold that sparkle of getting them and they don't live up to what an exotic was back in D1 with most of the exotics in D2 being completely irrelevant and unusable in a meta.
Artifacts: D1 artifacts were just amazing and fun to use, each having their own unique effect and being able to strategise on what artifact to use in which content was honestly amazing, plus being able to mix and match artifacts in a team was also awesome. Now in D2 the "artifact" isn't really an artifact anymore. Its just an item that gives temporary mods and nothing else.
Activities: D2 has some amazing activities don't get me wrong, however there was always something special about going into places like crotas end, prison of elders, nightfalls and the such with just a fireteam of friends that D2 just doesn't really give anymore.
Nightfalls: in D1 nightfalls were the end game, anyone could do them as log as they had atleast 1 other person but they were insanely difficult causing players to have to push themselves to their limits. Now in D2 nightfalls are a joke, the only difficult piece of nightfalls are grandmasters, but finding players to so them with (along with the ever rising power cap) has made it so that only a select few who have access to alot of content (able to easily do raids and such) can really do them semi often.
Factions: these were a fun side thing to do while doing other content. These offered cool rewards, with my favourite being the exotic class items (I really want them to bring these back where each one buffs a subclass for that class but each gives different buffs (kinda like D1 artifacts I guess with their unique buffs))
Gear: D2 has some good gear, but nothing beats the looks of alot of the d1 gear, looking like you're being taken, corrupted by siva, wearing hive shells and even the exotic gears looked amazing, my favourite being when I was a warlock main with the winged helmet exotic that started health regen when you picked up orbs. It wasn't a good effect, but it looked cool.
And last but not least:
Vaulting: D1 had no vaulting, nuff said
Edit: the helmet was "Light beyond nemesis" and by vaulting I mean the vaulting of content.
D1 had vaults, 3 of them to be exact. The tall ones in the Tower, the ones in the Reef, and at the Iron Temple.
@@JesusMyLordAmen that's not what I was on about. I meant vaulting content.
it actually did vault content. alot of weapons and armor became unobtainable from dark below and vanilla. the only way to get dark below and vanilla weapons was getting lucky with a legendary engram from dragon strikes. which was nearly impossible but still a chance. then taken king removed those strikes and re-sunsetted all the previous expansions and vanilla, even though house of wolfs literally just un-sunsetted all weapons and armor. because the taken king just had to take literally fucking everything including exotics. literally removed more than it added. still pissed about it. but they did bring back a decent amount of those guns and armor later on though. buts its not even close to the insanity that is destiny 2 removing whole planets, campaigns, activities, weapons, armor, etc. even if some were bad. as dumb as it is removing anything, I'd much rather go the destiny 1 route.
@@JoeMama-qt5go ah ok. I didn't know that. Still though the vaulting in D1 compared to D2 is as if there was no vaulting at all. D1 removed a few strikes and as such a few weapons. D2 removed their entire base game plus 2 expansions and parts of forsaken.
Tbh I'm more pissed at the excuse they gave in a recent interview about the vaulting. They said something along the lines of "we will not be vaulting anything from the beginning of the light and dark saga which we believe is shadowkeep." When I saw that I was like "bruh wtf". The light and dark saga started all the way back in D1 wirh the black garden with each DLC continuing on the story in some capacity or having some knock on effect to the what's happening now.
@@LeCryx that is a dumb excuse. not surprised coming from them
These times was great I stopped playing destiny all together about 1 year ago bc 2 wasn't cutting it I ended up going back to 1 and getting all my old raid teams to run 1 last time before I completely dropped out from destiny I wish they would've just continued with 1 it would've been so much better and easier
Yeah I remember the loot cave we stood there for hours shooting at that cave in order to get resources that's how I got my Icebreaker. It would have been nice if they would have brought Icebreaker Devil's Dawn Ash Factory The First Curse back to Destiny those are weapons I would love to see. Although ice breaker would probably break the game after all ice breaker was literally one shotting bosses.
When was Ice Breaker one shotting bosses? It was never a matter of too high dps, it was a good pick because you didn’t need to rely on rng ammo drops or synthesizers. Bungie can definitely rework it to fit in D2, making it consume super energy to create ammo for instance, then it’s a considerable trade off.
@@tristanlambert658 no it did one shot bosses but that's when it very first came out later they nerfed it and because it never needed ammo because it would just reset its ammo it became a must to use for long range enemies like spider tanks.
10:52 just wanna add something about the artifacts my dad had this one artifact where if you hit an enemy in pve with a melee attack there was a chance that the enemy you just melee would temporarily be a friendly it was pretty fun to mess around with and I think The maximum of friendly enemies you could have was four or five
Yes i remmeber that it was cool
@@donWWE31108 at least I’m not the only one who had it I think I had A very low chance of dropping because he got it from a lucky drop
@@Nemesis_Angel yep i remmeber that things was cool i wish they would do stuff like that again
I want ammo synths to come back and be allowed in end game. Day 1 Warpriest is a prime example of why they need to make changes for some parts of the game. Other parts I have more heavy than I need but I'd rather have too much in a raid than not enough.
I'd rather have an update to how the ammo economy works overall. Would probs shoot myself if a quick fix to not having heavy was to go into my menu mid-encounter to consume something lol.
Why do you want such an shitty system like ammo snyths back? You wait to wait 5 minutes to use each synth? So thats better than raid banners?🤦♂️
Raid banners can only be used in certain instances, the synthesis can be used as long as you have them, after the 5 minute cool down that is
@@Moonlight-ux5ln yea I agree. Even tho the raid banner system isn't too bad, the real issue is ur inability to use them whenever u want.
Best example of this is shattered throne... I mean they just never added the banner so we can't get ammo in it period.
I went and played D1 the other day and i was loving that i could go and pop a "Heavy Sent." this is something I wish would bring back
I remember the good ole days of destiny 1, I am a d1 beta vet. I still am waiting for the return of Icebreaker. Still glad they brought back Eyasluna, 1000-yard stare, and matador. But definitely more exotics I wish thry'd bring back like Bones of Eao.
bones were great. I miss my quadruple jump
@@bobtheblob2770 They were great I rand Mida with Matador
This is a blast from the past, i returned to D2 about a week ago after a year hiatus and was flicking through the legacy thing on the character select screen. Thorn carried me to my first Trials flawless. I D1 had some good stuff in it and i didnt realise how good we have now in D2. Nice video dude.
I haven't actually played Destiny 2 as I lost interest in the series but the amount of Nostalgia I felt watching this was incredible
oh i remember Randal the Vandal thing tanked 3 shots from a golden gun.. rocket to the face and maybe 20 or so mags from assault rifle.. guy was more tanky than Oryx
Wow… this dose of nostalgia made my morning! Remember each and every one of these.
Thanks for the video!
I remember getting the icebreaker when I first leveled Rahool up to level 8
I remember back in D1 I had a fun build with the Felwinter artifact, universal remote, and no back up plans, good times
Oh man, the universal remote trials meta towards the second half of D1s life was so fun.
@@corylyonsmusic good times
Been playing a lot of d1 lately for nostalgia and I’m trying to get back into d2 after the disappointment it was back in 2017
I completely forgot the sprint lockout, might just be a combination of titan skating and the artifact
I'm still smashing D1 to this day(took a 4 year hiatus). I'm about to do the daily bounties and weekly strikes in a couple hours actually. Nothing compares to D1 and the feeling it gave.
You know as a Destiny 2 starter, I wish I played the 1st one for the memories. And most of the exotics looked dope af. I actually watched a lot of really old reviews of D1 exotic drops and they don’t give that same special feel now. So I always enjoy these kinda vids!
Edit: Tf did Master Rahool do?!? 😂😂😂
Edit 2: Imagine with Destiny 2 has some of the same things from one with the Mechanics from 2 (obviously not that broken ass self res bs 😂)
Nah self res needs to come back. Man it was when your whole team was dead and you all self res and absolutely destroy the enemy team. It was a super that truly needed skill to use.
Had to play when started, Croats end raid was awesome, hard mode was lvl 33 and we were all 32 was fun doing it day one and kings fall challenge oryx awesome too
Damn viking funeral and the last word. Good days those were. Guess that’s why I’m running a solar warlock and the The Last Word again
Ah, the ol days. But to be fair, we miss scurge of the past in d2 just because it remembers us about sparrow racing.
man this whole video just took me on the largest nostalgia trip ever lol oh how i miss the good ole D1 days... FOREVER 29!!
I just got past 29 a few days ago 😂😂i was playing every chance I had
4:25 i acutally ran into him in d2 cosmodrome a few days ago, and even with being 1570 power it took atleast 4 gjallarhorn rockets to take him down.
0:15 YES, and when I played the Destiny 2 beta and discovered that they added it, I was so relieved!
Being a destiny veteran I really had to learn how much I miss heavy or special ammo synthesis
Damn, that was a smooth transition to the sponsor read, well done Patty.
Back in the Crota's End days, where the meta loadout was Fatebringer, Black Hammer, and Gjallarhorn. That loadout got me through so many raids and Nightfalls, I do miss them days sometimes, despite how busted it all was
Oh my god the memories you brought back! Like the glitch of getting on the tower sniping with ice breaker when doing the Crota raid to get across the bridge! Damn I miss D1
So basically what i learned from this is… companies have gotten so greedy they take out things we need and now have to buy because they havnt made enough from us buying the game already
My first Exotic was Last Word and I destroyed in the Crucible. I had such an amazing KD
I used to love the ridiculous difficulty of nightfalls in D1, I was a hunter main and my team always made me play bladedancer so I could go invisible and res them all the time lol
4:50 or pump a bunch of motes of light into it. I always had several hundred on backup just incase i got a godroll i wanted to use right then
12:39 they also had an exotic quest for a class item which gave a custom spawn animation which couldn’t be changed in destiny 1
I remember during year 1, very early Destiny like 2 months in, I got the Suros Regime and it did like 50 damage headshots in the crucible, it was so broken.
Man, I miss Pocket Infinity. That was my first exotic back at D1 launch and it hasn't returned since.
I remember getting a hawk moon after a pvp match and the lobby going crazy
Everything in this video is how destiny still is to me. I had to stop playing d1 around 2016 but I started when it first came out. I have started d2 about 2 months ago cus I finally could and I love it but it isn't how d1 was. Loved that game man. So many memories.
I remember loading up into the tower and there was a titan chilling on top of the vault. I was mind blown
On the thumbnail there's the glowy orb thing that let you fast forward thru content in d1 right? I accidentally used one and my brother was sad about it, was it a paid item?
So as someone who started in destiny 2 in 2020, and then started playing destiny 1, it felt so weird not having all the things we do in d2
Man Pocket Infinity was my first exotic. And as a loner PvE player, I just grinded the beginning of a nightfall for that final step to “earn” that broken-ass fusion rifle.
I didn’t even like it. But it did give me the start to my collection and I’ll never forget that.
Future War Cult had a rocket launcher that was close to Gjallarhorn. It held 3 rounds and had tracking and clusters. I used that when I needed another exotic in another slot.
Whisper mission... my favorite and so insane how it was randomly found! Wish new players could run the mission!
I miss Y1 Destiny. It was a blast. I kind of quit after they messed with the zoom on snipers. I went from playing 24/7 and trying to go flawless w/ snipers in every slot with my friends to not really playing destiny anymore. I came back recently and its been fun so far, but this video really takes me back. Icebreaker :( OP vex mythoclast, the thorn glory days. Fun times
I also miss the lens changes in D1 later on where you could add a certain colour effect or black and white to your whole screen. My wife and I really enjoyed that fun feature.
I remember using an OP sniper weapon back in Destiny 1. It had rangefinder and shot package and was called Felwinters Lie ;)
Man i really enjoyed Destiny 1, i miss the memories with my friend Lou. It was sad starting D2 and getting the flashbacks of him and i completing major milestones and one frame is both of our characters, and then the next abd following were just me. He didn't due or anything, he just gave up on Destiny and stopped playing. But aside from him and I teaming up, ive only ever been a solo player. To this day ive never completed a single raid or dungeon, and was only barely able to complete ONE GM nightfall to get Sleeper Simulant
I booted up Destiny 1 last week for some nostalgia and honestly, that game just hits different. It was really fun to go back to it for a few days
That sponsor segue was smoooth.
Ice Breaker was my first Exotic in Destiny and it quickly became my favorite. I mastered sniping and took the role whenever there was a need in the VOG raid. It’s the one I wish they would bring back into D2.
i read that they are going to bring it back before lightfall next year starts maybe with next season :)
Mine was hardlight. I remember making a new character and getting it thru the prison of elders just to get my guaranteed exotic at the chest and then deleting the character to do it all over again haha
Man, D1 stuff brings back memories. I remember getting the Supremecy and being only one of the handful of people in my friends that had one. And that Thorn bounty was a drag. Having friends ask me to do their PvP part since they never did it but it was just so much fun back then
Smoothest plug/transition ive ever seen on a video sponsor 🙌🏾
Started playing D1 towards the end of the lifecycle but never got hooked. Played D2 consistently until about a bit after Forsaken. Been returning to play on and off and it's been crazy seeing how it's changed over the years. Also sad to see everyone that was in the clan I was in has left.
I remember the day I got the thorn bounty finally, it was like May 2015 and I had gotten the batch of exotic mentor missives with Super Good Advice twice already, and I finally got Thorn's batch. I got to grinding only to see that 500 void points step, started it, then had to go out to dinner and couldnt say no because I was only 14 at the time, so I spent some time at the restaurant doing some nerd math in my phones notes app to see how many more kills I needed and wrote down what weapons would probably be best to use since it was void damage only for progress. Great times, really miss being a kid.
atheon sniper also got me through that thorn bounty lol I was on hunter class. Still can't believe I trucked through that...
Oh icebreaker...... I MISS YOU SO MUCH DXXXXX
Also I do miss the end result screen for matches and strikes where you can see your teammates rewards.
Its always so fascinating to see what your teammate gets.
I was talking to a buddy of mine the other day about year 1 d1 and how wild it is to think about playing the game without nightstalker or sunbreaker (and how op stormcaller and hammers were on release)
Wow Patty!
That video thumbnail INSTANTLY took me on a NOSTALGIC trip back to D1!
Thanks for all the fantastic content you make, for all Destiny players
You rock😁👍
You brought me back a lot of good memories, thanks!
And how much do I miss my Patience and Time sniper rifle. I remember playing a nightfall on the Moon and using that weapon to become invisible (as a Titan) to get past some powerful wizards, and since I was playing with two young boys, one of them got really surprised to see that.
One thing I remember and hope they do more of, is hidden stuff in the tower during events like the sparrow and the broom you could find in the tower during Festival of the Lost. We are about due for another hidden exotic mission too, I could use another outbreak perfected mission right about now.
Wouldn't mind another round of sparrow racing league around Xmas too.🤷
I forgot about most of these but now what you're mentioning them I remember them all oh man destiny was so much simpler back in the day
I was so happy during the D2 beta, when I realized you could Mantle. So good
gally was the 1st exotic i bought from Xur back in the D1 days, I really miss the split nova warlock and the NLB. this video is nostalgia on steroids.
I remember i spent so many hours trying to complete "a light in the dark" when i finished it the feeling was insane when you see that you aquired thorn💥 defeating that wizard was crazy hard
I just got back into this game after years of not playing. The last time I played was on my Xbox 360 back in 2018. The first thing I noticed was where did all of the crafting/upgrading materials go and why can't I buy ammo. Also this seasonal thing is weird. I don't like playing a game and losing progress. If I javelin to be forced to commit to a game to avoid the chance of loosing everything at the end of the season then I just won't play at all. Also why are there two types of levels on my armor?
Heavy synth, mote of light, icebreaker. Remember how Rahool could turn a legendary engram into a blue? Pepperidge farm remembers.
Is that a mote of light 👀
Before I watch based on the thumbnail
“Take his shields with gally, ima pop heavy”
“Icebreaker heavy ammo glitch”
I will forever rock the emblem for all moments of triumphs in year 1 of D1, golden era of destiny
Honestly my favourite artifact was the memory of Timur, It used to be so cool having an enemy fighting for you. Such an underutilised concept.
3:03 does anyone remember that one super famous screenshot of the guy who bottom fragged getting gjally?
And sparrow horns! Took me a while to get the heavy truck horn. Sparrow racing was pretty sweet.
Man the feels from this. I love destiny. I was drawn to it from the get go and it’s always been a go to through young adulthood. Now I’m engaged and have kid. Mental.
With all the new lights coming in, this is a great PowerPoint to present the classroom, thank you for the amazing content.
i remember fondly faking having gjallarhorn in crota's end by never taking out my heavy untill we were lined up on the wall. lfgs in d1 were rough to find if you didn't have gjally
Bro that thorn quest was no joke!
I remember finally getting the kills in crucible. Took weeks between working and playing.
Can't believe I've been playing destiny since the first beta 8 years ago, it had its issues but you just had to be there. Also don't forget about that sexy Glowhoo shader that everyone loved
Ah the good ol days of D1, I think I picked up the game right around year 1 or 2, I cant remember which dlc was out at the time but me and another friend started playing together, Those were the days.
the infamous loading screens in D1! I also liked the soundtrack a little more. Wish we could pick our own playlist
Late to this video but my favorite moment from early destiny was getting the vex mythoclast to drop. Super rare in early D1 and was a monster in PvP
crazy how i remember destiny in the beta phase in 6th grade then getting the game when it came out it was my favorite game. and then the first two expansions got announced and got the pass for both the dlcs that’ll come out😩
I remember being pretty new to Destiny when I got the thorn bounty to drop. I sucked at PvP and only had one void weapon so I was struggling with the crucible step until one game... I placed bottom of the leaderboard again, losing all of the little progress I had made. This time, however, I was that one lucky bastard we all hated, and the Hawkmoon dropped for me. I was so overjoyed I deleted the thorn quest and played around with my new gun instead. Needless to say my luck hasn't recovered since
