is there a story to go through?

[Dalollypop]

I know they deleted the real story mode for some dumb reason.
And they stole my money i paid initially making it f2p.
But now i want to play the whole story of all expansions too. is there an actual linear story. or is it just random missions and dungeons now?

[Hi Im Swat]

All missions and quests are part of Destiny 2's story. If you're looking for the campaign story, you will need to buy each expansion.

The campaigns from Shadowkeep (Year 3) onwards are still in the game, each of the campaigns do contribute to a storyline that concludes with The Final Shape. It's a story with a beginning and an end, can't really say more than that.

There is seasonal content missing from between the expansions though. Those were smaller story content drops that told side stories or fleshed out certain things. Why do we have Cabal allies, why is the Moon haunted, whatever happened to Rasputin, etc. The most important bits do get covered in the campaign intros though.

They vaulted the Red War and like 3 expansions. You can't really play those anymore.

From what you said about deleting the story mode, I assumed you knew that part already. Yeah just to be clear, Year 1 and Year 2 campaigns: The Red War, Curse of Osiris, Warmind and Forsaken, are gone.

Shadowkeep is effectively the start of the story arc that The Final Shape finishes.
But yeah, it's nowhere near the 'full' story that players who have been with the game throughout its lifespan have experienced.

yeah basically. if it helps, shadowkeep really is an ok starting point. i feel like it just needs the addition of the red war final cutscene so we can see when the black fleet saw us. otherwise shadowkeep is the first time we really begin the current story around The Witness and the pyramid ships. would it be better to have the beginning of the game? yes. undoubtedly so. can you still enjoy the current story? also yes

I'm same bought this game years ago , bought all dlc. But it's so confusing now 😂 it's a completely different game to when it was released. I've tried to play some missions and no clue how to start them

Anyone have a lore video or something I can watch to catch up the story to Shadowkeep?

[spean]

they deleted the story mode stuff because it was dead content nobody played. the story is mostly a pointless thing to justify ideas for new content, because it's a multiplayer game.
