The only campaign story content right now is in order of expansion release (Shadowkeep -> Beyond Light -> Witch Queen). There's also an on going story with the seasonal content through are told with a seasonal quest line rather than a straight shot campaign.
For free to play players right now there's only the intro quest line and the intro mission to the afra mentioned expansions and seasonal content. Bungie have so far made parts of expansion content free 6 months - 1 year before they are removed from the game (though its only happened twice so far).
If you really want to experience the game for the 'story' you probably need to buy the DLCs.
What do you mean removed?? I can't play the story anymore??
That's so bad, they were so good... This game died for me, wish they never made it F2P :(
WQ is way better.
I don't care at all about PVP, I tried it and didn't like it, it feels weird to me. What I cared about is campaign and stories, design of the game's levels.
I totally agree with you
There are still stories. But understand, this isn't a C-RPG (like for example the Divinity: Original Sin series). Story and story continuity isn't really the point.
The point is shooting bad guys for cool loot. It's an action game, moment to moment combat is the point. There's enough story to provide a rational for your actions, but no more than minimally necessary.
Your character is a Guardian, a Deathless Revenant, tasked with defending the last remnants of Humanity, who huddle in the ruins of their once great, Golden Age civilization. Humanity is beset on all sides by dire enemies. There are other Guardians, some of them fought in older conflicts that you will never see. But here, now, we need you to turn your hand to this situation <cue Zavala pointing to this season's primary antagonist>.

Eyes up Guardian!

Byf has all of the lore in a few videos.

Is that why Witch Queen expands on the lore from Destiny 1 of all things? Because continuity isn't a point?
Is it really necessary to be insulting just because you disagree with me?
Bungie has the legal right to terminate content access. That's part of the Terms of Service. Further, it's a type of EULA that has been in use for decades. Don't like it? Well, that's fine and all, but either don't buy into the franchise, or go talk to your lawyer.
I (personally) accept that part of the cost of playing Destiny 2 is the fact that content may well be removed. I am capable of considering that, and factoring it into the equation of whether or not the fun I have playing Destiny 2 is worth that cost. I do not make that distinction as an ideal goal, nor (as you seem to be implying) do I accept it either blindly or joyfully. I too would prefer to have the older content be playable. But I accept that Bungie feels that the best way forward as a service provider, is to retire that content.
You don't have to, you're free to make a different choice. But spare me the attempts to belittle my opinion.

You're deliberately misinterpreting my point. My point was that content continuity is less important when considering the basic nature of the game (an FPS-ARPG), and in comparrison to a traditional C-RPG.
Yes, that content would be nice to have, but no, it's NOT necessary. With Shadowkeep and moving forward from there, there's plenty of context provided for anyone to play, and for the current storyline to have meaning.
I never played Destiny 1 at all, yet somehow, I'm able to figure out what's going on.
Never said anything about it being legal or illegal. But your reaction shows that you just lash out with pre-canned argument, not willing to engage in discussion
Dunno, looks like I interpreted it as intended and you are backpedalling now out of that poorly worded spiel of yours.
Explain to me using current, not removed content, why there are Fallen in the Tower. The first enemy new players are introduced to.
And you shouldn't. Because Bungie also felt that D2Y1 was great idea, double primaries and all.
Whether or not insult is taken by something you said isn’t your decision to make.
Feel free to elaborate on what you find inconsistent.
So I take it by your use of a Straw Man you don’t actually have any kind of rebuttal.
Mmm… and what were my next two sentences? Because the context is relevant, no matter how much you try to dodge out of it.
Nope, I got nothing. Feel free to tell me how the presence of half a dozen Fallen down in the annex has a big impact on the game though.
Edit: Actually, I take that back. Crow actually does talk about the difference between the friendly Eliksni and the unfriendly ones when you're running this seasons "Hive Lightbearer" Battle Grounds. So, yes, there is actually some current content explaining the Eliksni in the Tower.
Sooo… you’re telling me how *I* should feel now? You’re trying to remove *my* agency and consumer choice because of something you think is important?
Further I think you’re mistaking Activision’s plans for the Destiny franchise with that of Bungie’s. Bungie had different plans. D2Y1 was something Activision insisted on.
