Overall, while it isn't perfect, the new and returning player experience in Destiny 2 is much better than it used to be. There's a selection of weapons and mods sold by Banshee-44 and Ada-1 that resets daily, and every weekend, an NPC called Xur arrives in-game and sells Exotic gear that new players can collect. It's disappointing that this Timeline currently doesn't extend to the events of the first Destiny, but the feature is nevertheless great for new players that need to be caught up to speed on the story.īungie has also ensured that new players have ways to acquire a decent arsenal right off the bat so that they don't feel like they're ineffective compared to kitted-out veterans. The developers also recently added a Timeline to Destiny 2's in-game menu that lets you review the events of previous expansions and seasons to learn about important plot and character moments.

Previously, new seasons increased the cap by 50, but now they only raise it by 10. Overall, the New Light quests provide a good introduction to the game, though the fact they only feature the Hive means you won't understand much about the other factions like the Fallen or Vex when you step into the full experience (you can find plenty of community resources for learning, thankfully).Īnother big improvement that Bungie made during Destiny 2 Year 4 was the decision to reduce how much the Power Level cap rose with each new season. These quests introduce players to the basics of Destiny 2, including general combat, abilities, loot, game modes, and characters. While it had previously been difficult for new players to get in on the action, Bungie made the process much better by adding in a series of "New Light" quests that new players can use as a tutorial (returning players can obtain these quests from the Quest Kiosk in The Tower). Getting into Destiny 2 in 2021 has never been easier.
