Just mark duty complete, this way only players that cleared the content before can join. Want to learn some new content? Tag as a practice party, this way players that also want to learn can join and players that are willing to teach know what to expect. Want at least one warlock in the party? Lock one of the slots as warlock only. If the lfg is robust enough with configs like this im pretty sure that the toxicity wont be as bad.

I think there deffo will be mandatory grappling sections in the campaign but it'll probably be like how you were auto switched to stasis during the beyond light campaign so you wouldn't have to fiddle with your menus when it gets to a grapple section Also that while the campaign and any other content in new Muna will be designed with grappling in mind there will definitely be different paths to accommodate for non strand users

the commendation system in final fantasy xiv is definitely simpler than destiny's seems to be (in ffxiv, you can give one player in your party a commendation at the end of an activity, and there's no nuance to what that commendation is; it's not mandatory and who you give it to is up to you, but it's common to give it to the tank, who is leading the party/taking the brunt of enemy attention, or the healer, who is keeping everybody alive), but personally, when i started playing ffxiv and i did my first activity with other players and got two commendations at the end, i felt INCREDIBLE, and just that simple act did a lot to help me feel more confident in playing the game with other people. i hope that this system gives new destiny players that same little burst of joy and confidence that my Baby's First Dungeon Commendations gave me in ffxiv. additionally, in ffxiv, there's a thing called a "mentor" system, wherein players can fulfill certain requirements and prove their mastery in certain areas of the game, and as i recall, one of those requirements is a pretty high number of total commendations over your history of playing; when a player becomes a mentor, they can have a special icon next to their display name, showing that they're someone who knows what they're doing and can potentially be a guide or source of knowledge for new players. i could see destiny having something similar, which could be a new sort of aspiration for really dedicated players who need a new Number Go Up thing to chase.

What I’ve consistently noticed is that not a single player in the trailer using the grappling hook used their double jump ability after swinging, which I’m interpreting as “this IS you double jump ability”. If you use the grapple, you can’t use Glide/Double Jump/Lift.

Walks to an open space, sees Saturn and realises the map is on the dreadnought* "What in the fu**? When did they announce this?". It was a very confusing experience ngl, but i was happy with the surprise pvp map

I’m at a point where my main want from Bungie outside of QoL and the current stuff we get, is more story content. I want to be able to spend more time immersing in the story telling instead of farming gear/level grind for 90% of a season.

I have a prediction that the grappling hook will be an alternate to jumps glides and lifts, like blink

you really hit the nail on the head with that point about whiplash. i stopped playing D2 midway through season of the worthy, and didn't pick it back up until shortly before WQ dropped, going from cool and interesting new content straight back to the usual grind slowly killed my motivation until i just stopped playing again. Personally, I think the bounty system either needs to be overhauled or replaced, they are honestly the least enjoyable part of the game, fixing it would require tuning the season pass better which i think all players would prefer and would do wonders for retention over FOMO.

They have the same commendation system in overwatch too. I’m just worried about something toxic forming. People also gotta realize it’s going to add an extra 30s to a minute at the end of every activity. I’m more worried about the guardian ranks. If it stays as new light stuff then that’s 100% fine. If it starts becoming endgame stuff, then there could be a lot of sweats for example: be rank 10+ or kick. This could be fine, but if there’s lighthouse stuff (or master raid stuff) it’s going to cause a lot of issues in the community. The rest was great. Hopefully they stick the landing with Lightfall’s story like they did with Witch Queen.

At this point, I’d rather play a Cloudstrider xD They look awesome!

We might not have access to the light during the campaign that why we learn strand. Maybe we use the strand grapple mechanic as a means of traversal because we can’t glide or hunter jump on neptune. Idk just a thought

Its really great to see the new Ketchcrash activity has solid enemy density thus far. If bungie keeps the current vibe of enemy density, I say theres a great chance lightfall is even better than witch queen.

If we think of this as a new game, I think that’s a great thing. Mixes things up, fresh things to see and explore. Yay new content that really feels new

the witness and new strand based “veil”enemies may still arrive for the lightfall raid with calus invading neptune being the final boss of the lightfall campaign. I really like the 80s-ish art style of neptune it reminds me of titan and the posthumous cayde mission. Aside from kingsfall what if oryx is coming back as a foil to savathun or perhaps as a vengeful ally now that we know the hive were tricked. I maintain that if nightfall is the end of day, then we can infer lightfall would be the end of darkness...

So this neptune destination, is it supposed to be a floating city? Because neptune is a gas planet and doesnt have a surface.

Strand looks awesome. But if also looks like it's going to dwarf other subclasses, both in movement for PVE, and in general for PVP. Unless the grappling hook like thing is the melee ability, or replaces something. (Instead of getting Melee, Grenade, grapple *and* class abilities)

Can't wait for the Campaign, LFG finder, and loadouts though, they all look awesome, and the loadouts have been a much needed thing for years.

It's a small thing, but I really like that the class philosophy shines through on the strand supers again: Hunters take the abstract paracausal force and shape that power into a tool that they can more easily conceive of & understand, and which they can direct more precisely. (Gun, Knives, Bow, Staff, Sickles, and now Rope Dart) Titans take their power into and around themselves, using it to augment their own body and conjuring simple structures (Hammer of Sol was exceptional and originally required going to a specific forge on Mercury to make one that the titan could then conjure at will from then forwards). Warlocks channel and direct paracausal forces in their purest forms with minimal attempt to reform the power into a distinct structure (Exceptions being Dawnblade's swords which just are a thing, another practise we players hadn't heard of until the Red War, but which replaced Sunsinger's Radiance which did follow this design ethos, and Shadebinder's staff which tbf stasis was literally all about creating structures so it arguably fits).

A new strand type game

Kojima needs to be stopped

Dato the goat for the quick recap for those of us at work today 😮‍💨🙏🏼🙏🏼

Maybe by myself on this take, but I think it would be a cool and trolly opportunity to have it where as we learn strand, our supers and abilities occasionally don’t work when we want as we haven’t mastered it until what we can assume is the end of the campaign, would add some depth to it never being used before us

0:42 "Why this city in partakeculer" 😄 Never change Datto, you're the best lol

personally, the whole "woah Neptune, a planet in our very own system has an entire civilization that we never knew about" feels like lazy writing.

I actually like the new planets looks and the way I can be spider man lmao

I imagine that after the final shape, our guardian aught too go on some adventures with the star horse

I can agree that it looked like a completely different game. I thought that it would be pyramid ships left and right at the last city but nope; a brand new city that has existed for a long time on Neptune being under attack by Calus. And I am on board with this!

14:42 “And I think they would REALLY need to mess things up badly for Lightfall itself to not be good.” I want to preface this by saying I’m one of the few who has no problems with Lightfall. That being said, WOOOOOW this did not age well.

They need to make a 9 player activity. The days of grinding well or Escalation are some of the most fine moments that I just want back

Homies forgot to put champ mods on

I hope they make improvements to the vault UI as well. Make it accessible from everywhere, and put in some filters and search box.

The Guardian Rank thing seems cool. As someone who dipped out in Shadowkeep and hasn't really been back, every time I get the itch I know I'm going to hop in, have fun shooting things for a couple hours, then be totally lost and/or overwhelmed about how to best progress. Something to better focus players on the way up to end game would be great.

Lightfall seems like itll be on par with expansions like Forsaken, Beyond Light, TTK, and I personally am really excited about it, Strand really took me by surprise but in a really good way and i feel as if, yes it might be “fling yourself at mach 12 into a wall” broken but shenanigans like that will be just stupid fun, especially to a brainlet like me, The overall theme of Lightfall is also something that took me by surprise, i thought it would be something more menacing and doomsday like rather than Cyberpunk but destiny, Nonetheless im very excited for what it has in store, and i genuinely believe that this may bring more player that dont have Destiny, into the franchise, Aesthetics are turned up to 11 too and thats something that i LOVE even if im a console pleb running at 30 FPS

I think the in game LFG will help a lot since not a lot of people use the Destiny companion app or any major LFG services/sites. Except for Xbox because Xbox players have LFG built into their consoles. I like the idea but I’ll hold out my reservations til it launches because I know the average guardian doesn’t know about menus and systems.

The current lfg system in Xbox is so broken cause if you don’t have a fireteam already assembled then it won’t look for one in raids and dungeons you’ll just get sent in alone

The laugh when you said “maybe try being a good person” made me laugh too. Great video as always Datto. If it wasn’t for you, I would not have found and fallen in love with this game.

For me, the strand type seems to be some form of quantum string manipulation instead of extra dimensional. Which is really cool

First thing that struck my mind seeing the new city and how the Guardians (presumably) were dressed was... Corporate Neonpunk. Which is something I hate.

Correction: Quicksilver Storm is Kinetic, not Arc.

Everything's just looking absolutely amazing! Super excited!

Not at all what I thought lightfall would be about. I thought it was going to show the last city being attacked and us getting necromancer abilities. But this was a nice subversion of expectation, very interesting seeing these different types of humans on Neptune. It looks like they're half man and machine or maybe they're wearing high tech suits 🤔?

So the grapple is a grenade replacement interesting

I didn't play season of the haunted but after a quick recap I didn't seem to miss much. It's time to go back into D2 and grind the light level to be ready for Lightfall. As a crucible player and TOO competitor I know that grappling hook is gonna be a pain to deal with, specially when 1v1. If it's gonna be an ability it'll need a cooldown, but that would be so meta. I'm guessing the grappling hook will be something we activate during story missions only, or in PVE activities

at 2:04 they have similarities with Rhulk. The skin and the Blade have the tipical look. Maybe thats the result form if a lifeform is transformed by the Witness like Rhulk

Really disappointed they chose the big showdown climax spectacular to be in some random city we never heard of and have no attachment to. Really kills a lot of the emotional investment we've built up over the past many seasons to have the crisis on some place we don't have any interaction with

Awesome Video My Dude

It seems that while Solar, Void and Arc refer to the four fundamental forces (Strong nuclear, Weak nuclear + Gravity, Electromagnetic), Darkness subclasses refer to exotic or theoretical concepts, with the Anti-Entropic crystals of Stasis and now with Strand clearly referencing the String theory, I predict that the 3rd darkness subclass will be based around either quantum mechanics or time manipulation

I know old stuff feels boring, but bungie is doing a fenemonal job with the new DLC looks F awesome!! I think WQ mark the start of a new era. they are looking to rework the old strikes, you can say whatever you want but I appreciate their efforts to make quality life improvements to the game, in my opinion the game has a great future for all of us.
