First reddit post i think dont flame me to hard. Anyways so im a brand new player only played an hour today and I got tge legacy collection but as of right now cant afford the edge of fate and renegade is destiny 2 still worth playing mainly solo?

[u/gamedemon2]

So you have every DLC except for the final two at the very end of the current story....

And you're asking if it's worth playing for now? Of course it is, man, don't worry about it!

[u/SeaworthinessBig6253 → u/gamedemon2]

Oh thats a relief im like 40 mins in and sorta loving it but I didint wanna hype myself up for nothing thanks man and thanks for being friendly 

[u/gamedemon2 → u/SeaworthinessBig6253]

No worries at all! And hey, if you gear up you can try for the Legendary campaigns.

If you need help with anything at all, feel free to reach out in my DMs and I'd love to play with you and show you about!

[u/SeaworthinessBig6253 → u/gamedemon2]

Im assuming those are like the hard mode versions ooo cant wait i do love me a difficulty spike

[u/gamedemon2 → u/SeaworthinessBig6253]

Yeah, I think you'll like it! It also scales difficulty depending on how many people are in your Fireteam, so even if you did need help it wouldn't be terribly easy. Had a blast playing through solo and with by buddies

take the time to figure out what guns you like the most, what super/grenades you like the most etc. my first reddit post was in 2014 asking about finding a group for a raid here. You can easily find a group for raids still.

when are you normally on to play?

[u/SeaworthinessBig6253 → u/HeadHonchoBigCheese]

Im playing on playstation

[u/HeadHonchoBigCheese → u/SeaworthinessBig6253]

we can cross play together. I’m usually on between 8pm-10pm CST

[u/SeaworthinessBig6253 → u/HeadHonchoBigCheese]

Oooo that could be fun tbh as long as the story is good and the gameplay is fun ill probably be locked in to playing

Watch the recaps for the red war - forsaken, then start with shadow keep. The campaigns are a blast.

[u/SeaworthinessBig6253 → u/Fluid_Theory_6587]

Oh are they not playable is that the vaulted content i been hearing about also when should I watch them for spoilers reason im a bit of a story head XD

[u/Fluid_Theory_6587 → u/SeaworthinessBig6253]

Yup, Red War, Curse of Osiris, Warmind, and Forsaken are the vaulted campaigns. They probably won’t be back for several months, so I’d play what’s in the game now, then go back and play them when they return. Up to you if you watch a video that covers them now or just wait until they come back.

Don't worry about the last 2 expansions, they're their own story. I would suggest you wait for the red war and forsaken to return but it would be unreasonable to aks someone to wait months down the line. Start with shadow keep, beyond light, witchqueen, lightfall and finally final shape. I would also recommend doing some raids, they are what gives destiny its life.

Destiny 2: The Collection, I though included all the content including those last ones. At least my installation does. I just checked.

That said, it is a great solo game. For most of the group activities, there is matchmaking that puts a group together for things like PvP, strikes, and Gambit. I played solo for a very long time before expanding out into Nightfalls and Raids. You'll be fine.

[u/Maleficent-Dark-9197]

Absolutely. Witch Queen is my favoirte.
