Welp, They Finally Broke Our Bud Datto Media

He's so right. There's a suit at Bungo that got paid for this decision. More concerned with the next few months of $$ than the next few years of players.

Exactly, the forsaken pack shouldn't be a thing nor the dungeon keys.

Make dungeon keys part of the season or the expansion.

In addition to that, Shadowkeep, beyond light, lightfall and the final shape should be put in an order, and in-game cutscene(or better a mission) should exist to explain what happened in each season.

If bungie wants revenue, they should make stuff more approachable for new players instead of confusing the hell out of them.

As someone who just started about a week and a half ago, I’m so fucking lost, lol. I played D1 from start to finish and then moved on to other things shortly after D2 release, so I kinda know some of the lore, but I don’t even know where to start as far as content I should be doing.

Currently about 1770, so I’m doing nightfalls now. Almost finished unlocking the strand class fully, and trying to prep to raid. I guess just do the weekly stuff that gives good gear, and then focus on unlocking stasis as well? Not really sure what to farm for other than that.

If you care about the story lines, I'd say once you're done with Strand and Lightfall, maybe go back and start the Shadowkeep campaign then Beyond Light campaign (assuming you bought them), then go to the HELM and start the seasonal story from the War Table (by the window) then once you finish all that rotate counter-clockwise around the HELM doing the seasonal stuff for each one to catch up to where we are today. There will still be a ton of the story missing for you from older seasons and the Red War (OG D2) that are gone now.

In the Cosmodrome you can get the New Light quest from Shaw Han and complete that to sorta kinda get an idea of what's going on. Then there's the guardian ranks (journey tab on the character menu) that can show you how to rank those up and what you need to work on if you want to.

So what is this game now if there is no story? Did they finally manage to add more than the handful strikes and raids?

Ummmm, I didn't say or imply there is no story... there is in fact a rich deep story, the only problem is that some of it, specifically the beginnings of it have been "vaulted" and you can no longer access them or play them. Seasonal story lines only stick around for at most a year (starting with the most recent DLC launch) but in the case of this season that began this week the story line will disappear with the launch of The Final Shape. You can always go watch the cut scenes on YouTube though to see what you missed.

So there is no complete story, so there is no story.
