why are you so inactive at least make a video explianing why you randomly upload like 1 every 2 months or soemthing

[@nairbas392]

The farm could have been such as great area if they kept it and continuously updated it

[@burns0100]

Would of loved for it to be fixed over time, new vendors popping up and have all our events and stuff in one large open area with 20 or so people running around rather then having the tower with four separate area's and hardly anyone about.

[@Galahime]

They could have kept it in and just had all the events held there

[@wheeliethebin]

at the very least they could've put the farm's cryptarch in the helm so that we don't have to constantly go back to the tower to hand in prime engrams

[@minimelegend]

I stayed at the farm until me and this other titan was left, we ran around, jump everywhere, walking along the power lines, sat at the campfire and danced inside the hut with the exposed hole, stayed until we was about to get kicked, so we waved goodbyes. One of the great Destiny memories.

[@Malenia128]

Wait what did that Titan look like, because I've done that way too many times back then

[@GageMason]

@@Malenia128 I think he means stayed at the farm until it was removed haha. So idk how you'd manage to do that multiple times.

[@ZiziToutMou]

Suerely one of the moment of the game

[@skullknight4579]

“What made the destiny 2 beta really special was that it continued even after the game released officially, some people think it’s still going even now” lol jk

[@DarthLevicor]

😂

[@DarthLevicor]

Lol longest beta in history LOL

[@Cxrinae]

Commenting for the inevitable butthurt bungie fanboys

[@0giraffe0]

Oh, it's still a beta and we're all just testers. Bungie shat the bed so hard with D2 and still can't get it together.

[@TheObserverDMZ]

Nah not jk

[@Giessepe]

Unknown player makes my favorite kind of content. He tells the stories that we sometimes forget about. Well done always mate :)

[@DarthLevicor]

YESSSS

[@brutality5683]

Crazy memories here. Really miss this game…. Destiny died for me when Cayde did :(

[@brmawe]

Oh my the beta...WOW times was soo different, being in school, watching updates on D2, etc.

[@chelsthegameruiner8669]

Crazy to think that I was 17 and in early high school when this game first launched. I'm 23 now and graduated years ago. The saying really is true, time flies

[@JackieRoxs]

I am still burned out of Inverted Spire five years later after that beta.

[@epicclasher67]

Man I was in middle school when destiny 2 dopped I remember playing the beta with my friends now I'm graduated time flies holy shit

[@unloughfulgaming]

This was me but D1

[@kasiphia]

Literally the same for me

[@Drenamow]

I still remember the beta a lot, and I actually did play it a lot as I had fun in it still, even with it's mixed impressions at the time, but it's incredible to see how far we've come comparing today to the beta!

[@Jwebbplayz]

301 little light 💫 The game is of its own breed and nostalgic for its own reasons. For times to come, many of Guardian’s will become.

[@thepopmanbrad]

i miss the red war campaign it was the first time i ever tried destiny 2 and my god it blew me away with so much content and what was going on and when i figure out the lore it was just so cool i played it for hours and hours and then i diddnt play it again till season of the choosen cause of the fact that my PC was bad and i could no longer run it and my friend wanted to play it with me together but i promised him i wouldnt play it anymore so that i diddnt get burnt out and we could experience it together (which never happened cause of life) but since season of the choosen i have been grinding every season maxing every battle pass buying the deluxe edition of witch queen and lightfall and got every DLC for stadia and now that its shutting down i had to buy every DLC for steam but at least i have lightfall deluxe and witch queen deluxe with every dlc haha

[@WyattTFdude]

Nostalgia just hit me in the balls

[@Blues_CluesTheFirst]

This is my favorite beta ever and I loved the Easter eggs in the map also RIP Cayde-6 last place he was

[@andresornelascruz4908]

I still remember playing on that football field back in the farm (The memories still hit)

[@ranbrooks9282]

It's actually crazy how I'm already at a point of noglstia for this game, it's came so far. I remember when they released dark below for d1, played all of d1 then was mad af I heard we were gonna have to restart for d2, but the trials being taken away forced me to go to d2, I remember playing the beta an being sad it wasn't the same as d1 but I stuck with it and I'm glad I did,

[@stevekeeling7988]

Man this really has got me missing some of the vaulted content. Pyramidion strike, Leviathan raids, Whisper mission. Remember the adventure missions? The ones Asher M sent you on were kinda fun actually

[@Can-uj5pv]

Hack the oil!

[@tommyrotts]

always a nice surprise to get an unknown player video, reminds me of the old days of d1

[@ORBS4]

I remember the day the destiny 2 beta happened on xbox, I had just cut open my hand after falling off my bike. But that didn’t stop me, I just held the controller in my lap and tried to play as best as I could have. I had so much fun while doing it too.

[@stoicbartender]

you’ve been my favourite destiny youtuber since house of wolves in destiny 1, it always makes my day when you upload and I appreciate the content that you make even if it’s relatively rare or not very often👍

[@doncoupeofficial]

Take me back to D1 Beta sheesh

[@f0r35ts3]

“this is a pretty solid foundation! if they continue to make changes and make the balance better, this could be a great game.”

[@louisluau680]

My friends called me crazy for talking about a farm on destiny two but I remember it so vividly

[@Hazejazejr]

Your background music is so soothing and ethereal- makes me feel nostalgic. Keep up the videos man.

[@G1itchz8]

One of the last times I had people to play with in destiny in general.

[@G1itchz8]

I've been playing alone for so long I can't coordinate with others that well so raids and dungeons are a no go.

[@G1itchz8]

Raids and dungeons are a no go.

[@chinochimp]

idk if im just remembering wrong but i feel liked destiny 2 in its early years looked a lot better than it does now (on pc). especially when i see gameplay of the homecoming mission im like blown away by how good it still looks

[@wintereclipse3263]

I think remembering wrong having played the beta and D2 launch the game almost looked like D1 just less dark

[@gengarclefairy3475]

Early D2 was still gritty up to Forsaken but now it’s too bright

[@firstnamelastname-oy7es]

I heard they've changed some aspects of the engine and scripting language they use as the game has gone on over the years, so it looks and feels a little differently than it used to. For me the menu's take a little longer to load now and aren't as smooth because I have an older machine.

[@MovableFormula]

The infinite super glitch was a Destiny 1 glitch that ended up getting patched, however it seems that the Destiny 2 beta was in a state where they forgot to actually fix it again.

[@happyfrog172]

i remember only way to get higher light was doing public events 😭😭😭 my god

[@sweatsucks7719]

"but first I need to tell you guys about one of the most downloaded games" FML!

[@altralord]

D2 y1 had a weird special spark to it

[@Bazzabazeman]

Always happy seeing your content appear here again mate

[@clark1066]

Looking back at that D1 footage makes me miss back then so much.

[@BSUxFAN29]

The good ol days... Honestly destiny is such a different than I originally thought it was gonna end up like... I almost feel like the only reason people still play is cause we knew how good it could be.. I wish they would just go back and update destiny 1 lol

[@DemetriusPooleJr]

I remember doing the D2 beta but never had a chance to to D1 beta or alpha.

[@Glowstikc]

I never played D1 but started with the d2 beta. Loved it. Actually met some people from nearby but lost contact with them unfortunately.

[@mr.morphie5965]

The Red war campaing and the journey ost. Best things from vanilla experience imo. But the Beta is VERY different from now.

[@monkeyuvdwind]

I miss soccer at the farm :c

[@Linchoward13]

I saw the first wave emblem and I rushed over to collections to see that I have had it this whole time. New favorite emblem

[@holyblade2]

The emblem you got from playing the ebeta is still one of the best ones

[@zZach___]

Holy nostalgia kick

[@chinonycc]

Man I remember me and my friend would have so much fun at the soccer area on the farm. I loved the farm

[@scalycoronet5198]

I remember the beta. It was my first time playing Destiny and I loved it. I remember playing that one strike a bunch of times

[@iMoo1124]

IK ppl are prob gonna think it's a warcrime for me to say this but god do I miss d2y1 pvp lol idk what it was about double primaries but it felt way less of a sweat-fest on PC when the only time you were able to get 1-shot (besides from titan slams, which is still a thing) was from heavies yeah movement feels way better now, but after ttk values started dropping into the .65 range everything felt way too sweaty to be enjoyable in a casual setting

[@AmfrozGamingdancing_bread]

Totally agree the shotgun unskilled fest that is the crusible now is just garbage. They should have a mix between year 1 pvp and mobility we have now.

[@StarBaker1]

i miss the red war campaign

[@braedenenns6632]

I honestly really miss the farm

[@163tangerineskii]

Man you know how to hit nostalgia, bring back the farm!! I miss playing soccer lol

[@cameronsalmon1314]

The soccer field I remember that shit 😭

[@baldy234]

Beta was better than the state of the game we have now

[@ravenouscadaver8]

D2 beta was so deeply worrying....and god It was awful just how close to the actual release it was, obviously. veil remains one of my favourite pvp maps but i cant believe they wanted 4v4 on on midtown eh. Its taken a long time to for me to see year 1 D2 with that 20/20 visions, but your right about the polish of the first mission, whether that really extends to the rest of the campaign is debatable but i really do miss escalation protocol and mars area/strikes alot. the removal of all the strikes, pvp maps and secret areas though is really what makes me pine for a time which wasn't necessarily "better" than now in all senses of the word, but it really leaves a shit taste in your mouth that you just cant go back there....not to get too philosophical but i guess thats just life, you dont always appreciate things at the time and you cant go back once you realize how good things were. Love to see you uploading a bit more in the last six months bro, i dont know if it was just a youtube thing but you totally fell of my feed for like a year or so there.

[@dewulfe9913]

Hmm, me and at least one other clan mate did fine in quickplay with the Nergal pulse rifle during the beta - tbh it was slaying. Once D2 itself launched, we noticed it didn't kill anymore like it had during the beta....Bungie had done something. Soon found out the only way to get a kill was to team shoot with MIDA, or rush someone with Antiope (IF you could get it).

[@2xfym483]

That beta is better then the game rn😂

[@DojaDUKE78]

Exactly!

[@BigChillenXD]

I miss the farm man 😞

[@iMoo1124]

same, I preferred it wayy more than the tower 😞 that OST was so god damn good, every time you would load in to that beautiful, peaceful music in-game, it felt like everything else would wash away mannn, now I'm sad lol

[@BigChillenXD]

@@iMoo1124 Tyra Karn and that soundtrack simply just hit different, a whole different energy compared to the tower 🖤

[@ryanschulte3742]

Do you remember when the most unique weapon in the beta was the blue that dropped for that one guy the refrain-23.

[@angelgortari3742]

Bro is back!

[@C6KSystem]

Honestly, I prefer how simple D2 was.

[@playboidre4136]

You know the weirdest thing to me when I came back after my long break from the game was the fact that the shaders didn’t have a usage limit

[@DarthLevicor]

Love your videos bro 👍please keep up the good work!

[@almighty5839]

God I miss the farm especially the theme should definitely bring it back

[@skyclaw36]

Man I remember the beta!!! Good times

[@fpfpfpfp2]

The best thing about the beta is you could use glide after blinking by pressing B on voidwalker.

[@burns0100]

I miss the farm. I honestly hate the tower we have now, it's so segmented and dull. I also really miss some of the old campaign style expansions as they had some great story missions.

[@baracas5736]

ya the game used to have many cutscenes and actual story to it now its just “start strike kill enemies good job guardian”

[@jamiesomers3564]

Such a shame I’ve uninstalled this game now, give it chance after chance wanting it to be something ultimately it won’t ever be for me. At least I have classic destiny one memories

[@swirlytroublezx0867]

I remember I pre order the game for the ps4 but didn’t got the beta code and when the beta was open on the pc version

[@Dijito]

You should make more videos brow

[@smilygamer9626]

A Relic from the past

[@Nico75710]

Do you have any D1 Beta clips?

[@NekoHibaCosplay]

I still rock the beta emblem to this day

[@bsu0]

The beta was pretty fun ngl, you would get to try out the exotics and change weapon damage types. I wish they didn’t remove that.

[@johnny44937]

Your back 😃😃😃

[@duck7642]

it was amazing, all i did was the strike over and over and explore nessus, then spent hours in the farm

[@altronbee1216]

i played the beta on ps4, now im on pc and no beta emblem.. rip

[@xdarkshadow3677]

Oh my god I miss the blue light it was amzing this brings back memories

[@ComfiCharlie]

i remember this game was wild back then

[@Can-uj5pv]

The Farm... I miss it so dearly.

[@STAYIN_ALIVE]

Had more fun in the beta with double primary, 2 crucible maps, and 1 strike then I have had for the past 2 years.

[@ICasinI]

I miss the old D1 UI colours. There's just something about them that hits different.

[@ogkennedy1787]

The most balanced pvp ever was

[@stevekeeling7988]

Lol 🤣🤣🤣

[@hwaytt]

missed the d2 pre alpha ver

[@Sin526]

I was there Unknown... I was there 5 years ago... I was there the strength of double primaries failed.

[@jaked4398]

Similar to your username, I totally forgot you existed! I used to watch you all the time in d1

[@maisann7231]

Bro i miss the beta so much

[@AJASH2005]

I hope destiny do a classic D1 graphics mode Where enemies have their D1 counterparts(can't work on scorn tho)

[@JamesBuggemo]

Commenting before the vid ends, but, didn’t you keep The Farm online a few extra hours during beta by just refusing to leave?

[@Mika_Mika8385]

So… this place was for the beta ? I was young, I didn’t understand what I was doing in the game. Like in the first

[@Toji7707]

Yo I miss this old days destiny 2

[@GrzpeJelly]

I remember playing both beta's for each game and let me tell you I feel old but I'm not, I was just really young playing them sheesh 😅

[@zzynneth]

I miss the destiny 2 beta so much

[@drewwww276]

Where did you go man

[@KingsDR]

It looks more vibrant

[@clanka5509]

I’m glad I played both destiny and destiny 2s beta but I preferred destiny’s beta. Man I actually miss destiny 1 soo much 😔

[@tr.unionz_8086]

They could've kept the campaign as it showed you how to play and on top of that explaining to new players what the red war was.

[@xiKeepItRealx]

I enjoyed destiny 2 just because of the graphics I agree the early launch of D2 sucked and I will not lie I didn't care one bit for it after 1year. I sometimes feel like I miss destiny franchise but I cannot stand D2 its not fun for me. Not like D1 was. I remember when I had nothing to do in D1 I would go on LFG to help others with nightfalls and raids because I loved doing them however in D2 I played and only have completed the leviathan raid the very first one that's it because I had absolutely no interest in doing the other raids . And nightfalls I don't care for either. D2 became too much of a chore for me which is why I stepped away years ago

[@csjudgement6012]

And the game was very fast no slow menu load times Idk what happened since that anniversary update

[@StinkyCheese477]

The farm was so fun

[@Nomadx83]

I remember it like it was yesterday

[@Filthy_Craft]

Was so much better back then!

[@yarisher3127]

I was a f2p when d2 released and i remember beng 8 levels max

[@Tinytreehugger]

i remeber playing soccer with other new players man i miss those days

[@mogenvonbogel7342]

Loved the beta
