Considering returning to Destiny after 5-ish years…
I remember playing the destiny beta nonstop when it first released in the summer. The following fall I was in 8th grade. Every day I carried around a Destiny magazine with concept art and articles about the upcoming video game (eventually it started falling apart). My best friend and I would marvel at the same images every day.
When the game finally dropped, I mained a Hunter, with my best friend a Titan. Together we played destiny until the Taken King, with our streak ending when I became an upperclassman in highschool, right before rise of iron dropped.
I remember my first VoG run, cheesing the Crota raid, getting my highest kill streak ever on the old moon map in crucible using preadyth’s revenge and going mad trying to collect all of the house of wolves exotics. I also remember running weekly raids and crucible with my old clan. Young and old and from super different backgrounds we had the best conversations.
I opened this app on a whim for the first time in years and found myself wondering if it would be possible to recapture the experience I’ve had before with destiny. I’m a 21 year old college student now and can’t play as much as I used to, but I’d love to relive of some of my childhood.
How much has changed since the taken king?
Is it worth coming back?
Does anyone have advice for finding a new community to game with?
TLDR:
Haven’t played since Destiny 1
Any advice on joining Destiny 2

The pve side of destiny has drastically changed for the better, its miles better in story telling than its ever been and raids are just as exiting as that vault of glass clear. New exotics to play with and a new darkness subclass called “stasis”. There is a new mode called gambit where its a mix of both pve and pvp, I hate the mode because heavy ammo is meta and dying by ghallorhorn sucks. I highly suggest you stay away from pvp, there is no fun in pvp but trials is back if you are into that. I highly recommend the pve side of destiny for the very best experience. Im mostly playing pvp in destiny but Im not gonna lie, the pve is where its at. Ps, DO NOT listen to these negative replies. Most of these guys are always mad on the forums anyway and will tell you its not worth coming into. They clearly speak from a pvp perspective, hence the reason I said to stay away from it.
