GENERAL
Destiny 2 Gameplay
In Destiny 2, you become a Guardian, a superhero-like character with special powers and cool weapons. You can team up with other Guardians to fight off enemies and explore different worlds. The game has two main types of gameplay: Player versus Environment (PvE) and Player versus Player (PvP).
Character Progression and Classes:
As you play, your Guardian can level up and become stronger. You complete quests given by non-player characters (NPCs) to get rewards and experience points. Destiny 2 has three character classes: Warlock, Hunter, and Titan, each with unique abilities.
You can also choose your character's species and customize their appearance, although this doesn't affect how they play. As you progress, you can unlock different subclasses with special powers, and expansions introduce even more exciting abilities.
Gear:
In Destiny 2, you collect weapons and armor to improve your Guardian's abilities. The gear is divided into different types, like Kinetic, Energy, and Power weapons. You can also customize your gear with mods that enhance your character's stats and abilities. The game has introduced changes in how gear works over time, including a new armor system and the introduction of various weapons and mods.
Player versus Environment (PvE):
Most of the game is about PvE, where you explore different planets, complete missions, and face various challenges. You can team up with other players for activities like strikes, raids, and dungeons. Completing these activities earns you experience points, gear, and resources to improve your Guardian's power level. There are also weekly milestones and special events like Iron Banner and Gambit to participate in.
Player versus Player (PvP):
For those who love PvP combat, Destiny 2 has the Crucible, where you can battle other players in different game modes. The game aims to balance the playing field by adjusting player statistics, making it about skill rather than gear. There are various modes to choose from, and special events like Trials of Osiris and Iron Banner offer unique challenges and rewards.
Gambit Mode:
Introduced in the game's second year, Gambit is a unique PvP/PvE hybrid mode. In Gambit, two teams of four players compete to defeat AI opponents and collect motes, which are then banked to spawn powerful blockers and invade the opposing team's side. The first team to summon and defeat their boss wins the round. Gambit Prime, a more intense version of Gambit, adds additional challenges and roles for players.
Destiny 2 Plot
In Destiny 2, players on an epic journey in a science fiction world filled with danger and mystery. The game's plot unfolds across several expansions and seasons, each adding new layers to the story.
The Red War (2017)
The game begins with the Red Legion, led by Dominus Ghaul, attacking the Last City and crippling the Guardians by stealing their Light. Players take on the role of a Guardian who, with the help of allies like Suraya Hawthorne, Cayde-6, and Ikora Rey, must confront Ghaul and the Red Legion. The story revolves around the struggle to regain the Guardians' powers, save the Traveler, and thwart Ghaul's ambitions to harness the Light.
Leviathan and Beyond
After defeating Ghaul, players encounter Emperor Calus and the Leviathan, a colossal Cabal ship. This introduces new mysteries and challenges.
New Light (2019)
New players are introduced to the Destiny universe, learning about the Traveler, Light, and Guardians, while returning players can experience the original Destiny's first mission.
2020 Update

Ongoing Content
Destiny 2's seasonal content, starting with Shadowkeep, reveals an impending threat from Pyramid-shaped ships related to the Darkness. Guardians face Hive, Vex, and the deceptions of Savathûn.
The Witch Queen
Savathun, a Hive god, obtains Light powers, sparking conflict. Guardians uncover her past and deal with the Lucent Brood, eventually confronting her within her Throne World.
Lightfall(2023)
In the Lightfall expansion, the story focuses on the return of Emperor Calus, who has aligned himself with a mysterious entity known as the Witness. Calus has established a stronghold on Neptune, a new destination for players. The Guardians confront Calus, who aids the Witness in acquiring a powerful object called the Veil. With this artifact, the Witness pierces the Traveller's protective shell, leaving the Vanguard and their allies shocked and vulnerable.
The Final Shape (Expected 2024)
The upcoming expansion, The Final Shape, promises to reveal even more about the evolving Destiny 2 narrative. It hints at the return of Cayde-6, with actor Nathan Fillion reprising the role. The story revolves around events taking place inside the Traveller through the portal opened by the Witness. This expansion is expected to unravel the mysteries surrounding the Traveller's actions on Fundament and its connection to the origin of the Hive, bringing further revelations to the Destiny 2 universe.
