This is the entire history of the Destiny franchise. This is the story of Guardians everywhere. This is our story.
Destiny has changed a LOT since 2008, so today we're going on a nostalgic journey through the ages to relive the Destiny experience over the years. If you're a veteran player, this will be a fascinating and nostalgic experience. If you're a newer player (or a player who took a break), this video will fill you in on what you missed. Since most of this content is no longer playable in the game, it's important to recognize it and reflect on how we got to where we are today. I hope you enjoy this video, and thank you so much for watching. Seriously. It means the world.
The weapons in Destiny are a very important part of its evolution and history. Although some weapons are mentioned, this video doesn't really cover them in detail. So after you're done watching, go check out my other video on the ENTIRE Evolution of Destiny's Weapons: • The ENTIRE Evolution of Destiny's Wea...

Destiny 1 was such a magical experience. I still play and love current expansions, but the feeling back in 2014 was just so beautiful. I would do anything to go back
-
god, that original destiny 1 opening will NEVER fail to give me the feeling of awe and eagerness
-
I've never watched a 2 HOUR 16 minute YouTube video about ANYTHING. To hell with destiny, this video was so masterfully put together. The tone and even the script, witty at times was a true pleasure to watch. Great video and good freaking job!

When I was a kid, the PS4 had finally dropped and my dad bought one for himself. Eventually he had pre-ordered Destiny and played the alpha, he would never play anything else for the majority of the time. (he still plays to this day) What's funny is that I had nothing else to do, so I'd watch for hours as he'd farm the cave, eventually he bought the Red Death and Gallahorn. Once the Crucible Map Expansion dropped, he'd stay on all night trying to improve. I never really played the first Destiny much, yet I can recall every single detail mentioned in this video.

10M views here we come. This is gonna be a historic video in the Destiny community
-
All new light players need to watch this, even veterans. Is very nostalgic for me, looking back from the beginning.
-
Watching this game me a huge flood of nostalgia but also sadness, it reminded me of the masterpiece this franchise could have been.
-
You’ve nailed it. This is the pinnacle destiny video. It’s like a documentary on our history as a community. The highs & the lows, I’m here for all of it. Godspeed Guardians
-
Absolutely surreal. I remember getting Destiny for Christmas back in 2014, to think its been almost 10 years. Been on and off with this game for a long time, but I still love it.
-
As a Beta player for both D1 and D2 this made me tear up a little bit. The nostalgia is unreal
-
9 years later and I'm still playing this game.
-
Seen the loading screen and music at 5:00 brings back so many memories with the friends I had in destiny
-
I think bungie could learn a lot by watching this. Really highlights what we’ve loved and hated throughout and what really makes the game, the game
-
As one of people who has played since the D1 Beta, its so nostalgic watching the history i lived. Everything you covered i remember clear as day "Everyone was working through The Taken King's story" and all i can think is YES YES THAT WAS ME, I faked a sickie that day and slammed through it, while everyone else had finished school and would be on there way home, i had beaten Oryx and was already working through quests and getting more exotics. And thats just 1 example. I wish i could relive those days, especially knowing now, those were the good days.
-
I still remember House of Wolves extensively. My IRL friend and I along with another guardian managed to beat Skolas on the first day and didn’t realize how hard of a time players were having.
-
The nostalgia hit me hard here. I remember getting Destiny 2 when I first got my PS4 for my 13th birthday. I’m 22 now. It’s super surreal to see all of this history compiled into one video.
-
The grind you speak of in Destiny 1 Year 1 was one of the greatest and worst feelings ever. Getting an exotic in early D1 was the some of the most dopamine that I have ever had released in my life. The amount of time I spent at the loot cave w my friends is unreal. Loot Cave brothers where you at ?!?!?! Also shout out to my forever 29 brothers. The OGs will never forget your service.
-
I don’t think I could play original Destiny today and not shed a tear. The music, the friends, the loot, too many amazing memories Edit: Thank you all for the love (more likes than my whole channel lol) and I enjoy reading everyone's feedback, much love <3

I've only just jumped into the world of Destiny and this video was unfathomably helpful in understanding how the game got to the point at which I've just joined. Informative, engaging, witty, and the work you put in is so evident. Thank you so much!
