    The first mission of this expansion is really good! Still working through the rest of it but what a good opening

    I’ve started getting the dreamsbane or whatever armor and getting my first peek at the new armor stuff and woooooooow

    Woooooooooooow

    (Seems very good everything they’ve done here seems very very good)

    Bungie knows that tank based set pieces are what their base craves.

    Wait did your Guardian talk in Forsaken?
    I must have forgotten that because I was very surprised when mine talked in Shadowkeep

    oh, so is the original story stuff from launch no longer a thing, or an optional thing you can play through when/if you want? The whole bit with Ghaul draining the traveller, guardians retreating to the Farm, etc?

    Even with a brand new character it seems to be just "yo here's the tower go do some strikes and shit" which feels jarring to me, let alone someone entirely new to the game

    You can absolutely still play the base missions, you have to go talk to.... I think Amanda Holliday, in the hangar

    I’ve mostly just always been confused as to why they don’t do more in story missions with mixing solo play and instanced multi, it is great

    Also tanks are good

    Yeah, Holliday has the Red War campaign as well as Osiris and... Warmind missions?

    that's cool but also seems like a weird way to welcome a new player

    "if you want guided progression and a clue what's going on, go do this optional content we've tucked away in a conversation menu with the town mechanic"

    It is very poorly implemented

    It almost seems like they want people to forget about the year 1 campaigns with how little attention there is drawn to them.

    The tooltip in the store does say to pick up the campaigns from Amanda, but I don't know why you'd check the store for something you're supposed to have for free.

    When i saw the tanks i literally called dibs despite not having anyone in my party, or even nearby in the zone.

    but also I guess there was no point to restarting

    ah well, at least it was with my least-used character, and there's no reason not to go right back to my old Hunter

    I may still play through Osiris and/or Warmind for fun though.

    Last question (for now), is there any reason not to dismantle the pile of old 750 power purple items left in my vault from before?

    If it's all year 1 gear then I'd say no, just get the shards from them since if you decide later that you really need a Uriel's Gift or something then you can just pull from collections.

    Well I've bought Shadowkeep on xbox and ps4 now so I guess I'm committed to coming back to this game. Oops.
    If anybody on PS4 is looking for somebody to run content with then feel free to hit me up (PSN is Dudebusters), my friends list is pretty sparse on that side. I can't promise particularly good play but I can promise exceptional bants*.



    *I can't promise that either.

    Initially I was looking up guides for how to get the weapon parts for the Shadowkeep quests, but it turns out the nightmare hunts take you to (at least some of) those areas and there'll be a quest marker right on the item.

    They show up after you hit 900 power.

    You need to get to 900 first I think.

    This is so comforting, I had so many things I didn't know what to do with. Are shaders still one use pops?
    Also it's normal that I'm back to picking up blues and cycling through them right? (I was at 750, only ever played the release to first raid)

    shaders are still one use, yeah that's super normal, everyone got bumped to 750 on tuesday, the new soft cap is 900 so you're gonna do that until then

    Got to 900, used that Dust stuff to buy a chair emote, and the one Bright Engram I got gave me a hot pink preschooler buggy-looking sparrow.

    I think one major mistake I made was primarily being a Titan throughout 1 and 2. Enjoying Warlock a lot more.

    I found a thing on the moon.
    At the Lunar Battlegrounds there's a big cave with an inactive Vex teleporter and a single Vex enemy that drops a chest. It gave me a weapons quest, though I don't know if that's guaranteed.

    The weapons quests seem to be random drops on the moon, including ones you've done previously.

    Still kinda overwhelmed, but I guess there isn't a wrong option for how to do things.

    If I was coming into this fresh it would drive me nuts to do things out of order, or at least not to do the base game quests first

    But I'm not everyone

    Protip for anyone else that played year 1 and is returning now: Planet tokens aren't a thing anymore, so cash in all your tokens and get some inventory space for other random crap.

    I had enough tokens saved up that it brought a character from 750 to over 900.

    I started the original campaign again, got just far enough in to remember "oh yeah, that's what all that is" and then bailed and started Curse of Osiris instead, seems cool so far

    I heard bows were a thing now. Can I expect to get them as random drops, or only from specific content? (Do I need to buy Forsaken or Shadowkeep to get them?)

    Bows should be available to everyone afaik

    You can for sure get an exotic one from the Black Armory stuff
