I love how this particular playthrough was done during Arrivals and there are just huge, out of place pyramid ships on each planet just hanging out lol.

That scene where you lose your light and it opens up with "DESTINY 2" Never fails to give me chills.

I still love how on launch day the fight in the plaza had random guardians joining in and out, all blueberries. Added authenticity to guardians rallying for the city

Imagine if this was an option after new light instead of removing it, that would have been so cool.

Me laughing when Cayde said, “Oh, your super tank can’t fly?”

I really miss the red war, and cayde, especially cayde, it was such a good tutorial of everything about destiny, told you all you needed to do, the new light things now ignoring the fact that they are boring dont tell you anything at all, how is a new player going to get into the game with it

How interesting to come back here after Witch Queen, and more specifically, Season of the Haunted...The Red War campaign paints the picture of what all is to come later.....it planted seeds for how Savathun was able to be chosen by the Traveler, by studying Ghaul, and having contingencies everywhere....the experiments with the Hive on Titan.....the trapping of Vex on Io....consuming raw Traveler energy to wield the Light...and possibly without a ghost....if Ghaul would have succeeded...he likely would have been unstoppable if not for the Traveler...It starts to paint the picture of Zavala's struggles, of what he lost once, and what he could lose...of Ikora's faith and what someone like Cayde meant to hear, the true gravity of Cayde's sacrifice. How Eris was able to go on despite being forever Lightless. Like...I could go on but damn. But the Red War also paints alot more questions that may be answered later.....like...who was the Prisoner that Failsafe spoke with for so long? What did Savathun take from Io when it when it disappeared? What did Calus take from Mercury...? What is the true purpose of the shard of the Traveler? Could the Darkness have touched the traveler, and the Traveler cast it away? Could the shard be a clue as to why we can use both Dark and Light powers? Could Eramis be a key in this as well? What is Mithrax's place in all this? Crow? Like, the more I watch this campaign, the more I realize that it's actually very very good. It's a shame that New Lights can't play this. It's actually a really good skeleton, in the same way that D1's initial campaign was....it's possible that many Guardians wore rose colored glasses when coming to D2.....but idk...D2 has woven together an amazing story, and those that were there from the beginning will remember it for a long time to come.

No wonder that as a new player who just started playing D2 last week I had no idea wtf was going on... Awesome video - thank you!

This should had been the starting campaign for the New Light...

In hindsight post-Witchqueen, Ghaul really was ahead of the curve. Good villain. Hubris was his downfall and we can only imagine what would of happened if he connected to The Witness instead of Calus doing so. The Red Legion was the most organized threat humanity's faced and Ghaul's decision to try to be chosen in the light wasted a ton of time and gave guardians a chance to establish an even stronger connection to it. Ghaul could have been the next Oryx.

I seriously regret not going back during arrivals and playing through this whole campaign before it was removed. I even remember saying “oh I won’t miss it” 😔

I miss Titan. Such a beautiful planet. The giant waves had this weird calming effect on me.

Far out man! I miss cutscenes and story missions SO MUCH! Gimme back OG Destiny 😭! This was awesome, thanks Destin! You’ve made me want to edit super cuts of this stuff haha!

If Ghaul became the guardians. They'd need to deal with the darkness.... Also, gotta give Ghaul some respect. He refused to take the light by force up until it was his only option. He wanted to give the Traveller the choice.

Cayde using Golden Gun hitting the Cabal ships is just so badass

i dont know why, but its so cool seeing Mithrax for the first time during the titan missions. when the ghost accidently freed him, it looked like he thanked the guardian and just wanted to move on. he was being smart and tying to avoid the player and even tricking them into helping him. then he helps the player later on. humble beginnings i guess. and now hes a trustworthy ally.

God, walking out in front of the Sun is still so friggin’ baller.

Man, I want to play this campaign again SO BAD!

Wow the ending of that mission saying “don’t ask for anything from someone stronger, they’ll offer it themselves” really hinted towards the darkness and the witness leading us to europa getting out darkness powers

Thank you for putting all these up. I stopped playing after Forsaken but me and the wife are planning on getting Shadowkeep and Beyond Light and this will be a great recap of everything we missed. Thank you Destin!

I still can't believe they got rid of the main campaign. That's just unheard of. I tell you, it makes replaying the game a lot less fun when it's impossible to redo all my favorite missions.

Despite what future expansions/DLC's were like and I've been a big critic of the game, this campaign was seriously on point. Miss not being able to run back thru it. A+ experience.

I remember playing this and the moment at 14:50 sometimes plays in my head. It was so beautiful, and really the main reason I came back and watched this. I wish I could play it again..

Goddamit if the red war isn’t my favourite thing I’ve done in this game and if journey isn’t my favourite piece of music in the game

Just started playing at the beginning of beyond light but so I couldn't play this but this looks way better than forsaken shadowkeep or beyond light

Thankyou for archiving this. When I started playing I literally made it to the Farm and boom, Sunsetting. Never got to see how it ended, let alone Forsaken or Shadow Keep, just the morsels that can still be played.

I’m just here to hear Zavala voice. Lance Hendrick really made this character. RIP Lance and thanks for the memories. 😢

Wish you could teleport yo different timelines in destiny 2 so we can replay all of this

my favorite campaign, when they decided to remove this from the game, it just crush my passion to play the game ,the music,the battle, everything is so epic to me ,I even call my friends to join the game just because how good this campaign is , sometime when I feel bored or sad ,I always play this campaign to seek some pure happiness, and it's all gone by a sudden and either my passion .i haven't play this game for a long time, and I think i won't come back, just keep my memory with the good old days

9:39 This part gave me utter chills, getting pushed off the ship like that! It was insane.

I recently just got back into destiny 2 and this playlist of old destiny 2 campaigns is exactly what I was looking for. Red War campaign is the only one I completed. I’ve missed every expansion and seasonal event since then and there’s some I can’t play anymore. Thank you 🙏

Those were the days…. Red war was awesome. Played all three classes during the beta.❤️❤️❤️

Playing through the Destiny 2 campaign from launch to where we are now has been quite a treat.

This is the best we have for introducing friends to Destiny 2 since they cut all this content in 2021. It's so insane that they removed the core of Destiny 2 and still call it Destiny 2.

You'll never realize you missed something till it's gone... D2's vanilla campaign may have a rough start but the experience and how it felt to me still lingers in my heart and mind, it still saddens me that not everyone new can experience this and veterans can't relive those moments again ever since the content vault, myself among them. All I can do is hope that one day when the light and dark saga ends, Bungie would bring back the original campaigns where they belong and we could finally relive the destiny 2 experience in all of its glory. Some of you may disagree, take my words how you see it, but I still believe that day will come. You just have to have hope..

A return to simple times

24:16 🤣😂🤣😂 I don't know why that's so funny to me. The way you just stared for a moment and then took off running was perfect.

Thank you for recording all of the details, and not just the cutscenes. I'm a new player and I had no idea the old content was removed till I went to buy the remainder dlc's.

I miss this campaign.

Thank god i get to play it a year ago before it was vaulted it was an amazing campaign i especially liked the part where we walk out of the last city and in the snowy mountain and the soundtrack of it

thank you for putting this together!

This .. I watched this with a lump in my throat. Possibly the greatest videogame campaign ever and now lies probably in some storage facility away for anyone to experience and enjoy. I hope they change their mind and find a way to bring it back but until then thank you for bringing this back. So many great memories.

This is so nostalgic, 5 years goes by fast.

Love how in the opening everyone is running for Zavala’s Barrier and Cayde just summons his Golden Gun ready to take some MFs down.

The Red War Expansion Was Awesome Than The Other Expansions.

2:11:56 Goodbye Mr. Reddick.

I miss this campaign sooo badly please bring it back

Red War was so awesome!!! I still miss it to this day :[

Thanks for putting this together. Thank you for giving me a chance to experience the campaign in a cinematic way since it's no longer avaiable. :)

Looking at this now, it's crazy how much thought and foreshadowing there was so many years ago & even in the present how each seasonal story will foreshadow lightfall and the final shape. Looking forward to coming back to this when the next expansions come out.

I loved the Red War! I wish I could go back and play the whole campaign again.

I miss the Red War campaign so much. RIP Vanilla D2, and soon Forsaken Campaign.

The game had its issues in the beginning till the go fast update went live but The red war was fantastic and I wish it was here for a legendary solo clear. New lights should have to go through this first.

I never knew I'd be so nostalgic for a campaign I barely played five years ago. Man, I miss Red War.

Imagine if we had thundercrash in the cutscene😂 those ships would know real missiles

Red war campaign was soooooo goooood! It was just in the era of dual primaries, i would pay to have it back with the updated enemy spawn amounts, id love to see hoards during the tower defense part! I still get chills to this day rewatching Ghaul tell us, you are not brave....you've merely forgotten the fear of death.... "allow me to re-aquaint you." Such a good voice actor.

Ugh I want to see my badass fully masterworked characters in these cutscenes now

Me: sees cayde Also me: starts tearing up "oh how I'm missing you"

Bring this back bungie.. please.. we believe in you

The music from 2:18:35 to 2:18:50 is nothing short of epic! Thank you very much for compiling all campaigns in this game. Very appreciated.

I joined Destiny 2 way after this was vaulted. I am so sad that I never got to experience this and I hope that I will someday.

1:35:00 Your golden gun was so powerful he was just deleted from the game instead of being killed!

Man watching this video unlocked memories I didn’t even know I had wow...

Mmaannn...watchin this feels like i went back in time when i started destiny journey. And brings back memories from my old team that i used to play with 😢💔 But i'm really grateful for them for introducing me to this amazing game honestly, and forever will....

Still my favourite campaign, shame that I can never replay it

this needs to be the new player experience

Its a shame Red War was removed. Now theres almost no story to play without DLC

Thanks a ton for posting these. I just got into Destiny and I wish I could've played these campaigns

I started the game during Curse of Osiris and dropped it a bit after Forsaken for personal reasons. I came back during Witch Queen without knowing any of it had been vaulted. I miss this campaign so much but especially the Leviathan. I have so many good memories with my old clan in that ship and man, I want to go back so badly :( I hope one day we'll get pre Shadowkeep content again

Thank you!!!

Nothing compares to this campaign, period.

bro.. "So feel free to kill yourself" is one of the most ridiculous lines ive heard in my life and i love it

Anybody realize the pyramids In the water at 11:50? And what if Ghaul was a disciple of the witness long before we knew the witness?

All these years and the speaker still has the single greatest rhoast in the game

Why did Bungie remove this from the game??? This is WAY cooler than the "New Light" bullshit I've been doing >.>.

I miss this

The only thing I have left from the Red War that nobody else can get (unless they played the original Red War), was the 0 Defense and non-upgradable “Scorched Hunter Cape”. It’s from the damaged armor you get after losing your light and getting…tapped…off the Cabal ship. That cape literally does nothing except give me the memory. I have it treasured in my vault…I so wish I saved the rest of the damaged stuff and it makes me sad that I’ll most likely never get anymore of that stuff in my life unless they bring back the old Red War campaign.

HOLY SHIT THE CAPTAIN IN THE RIG WAS MITHRAX

Amazing transitions between gameplay and movie, really great work! 🙆🏻‍♂️

There is truth in the Speaker’s words. He told Ghaul to kill himself because not only was it absolutely savage, but because all guardians must be resurrected in the Light to be a Lightbearer. So if Ghaul wanted to earn the light, he needed to die.

honestly it's one of those things you had to be there for. it was a golden age

Red war should of been kept in as a guide campaign for new lights and nostalgia change my mind.

That first encounter with Gaul..... Always gives me chills. Wish I could go back and replay Red War.

Literally getting chills watching this, I literally remember every single second of this campaign from launch. This was taken a little later obviously but as someone who can back in Season of the Splicer after not playing since Eater of Worlds launch this shit gave me nostalgia. Currently in season of the Haunted(S17), this was by far the greatest campaign Destiny has ever seen. The ties that are happening in Witch Queen with the Red War are insane. Such a shame that new lights will never be able to witness this master piece and be able to understand the beauty.

" you have forgotten the fear of death, allow me to reacquaint you." is such a raw line like holy fuck

I miss this story.

Not shown here. But in the trek a bit before the cut at 15:13 there was a branching left or right choice. The left was across a fallen tree over a huge gap. There was a risk of falling. And therefore death. And on the right a safer path through a small tunnel. That choice was always so cool to me because it's something you'd never think of with the light. But without the garentee of resurrection it changes how you might choose the path. Very very good level design

Destiny is honestly one of the greatest stories ever told

God I remember playing the opening mission on day 1 of d2. D2 may have had a shaky start but dam looking back I wish I could Play this again.

These times were liquid gold

Dude, thanks for saving these movies. These stories are too good to pass up.

*sigh* I miss when this was still on Destiny 2. But hey, at least it will end with a bang (at least I think it will).

God i remember it like it was yesterday. Such amazing campaign!

Just started playing this game and…why, oh, why can’t I play this!

I just started playing when Witch Queen came out but was lucky enough to buy Forsaken, Shadowkeep and Beyond Light. Was unable to play Forsaken but am having a wild ride with SK and BL. I feel like I've missed so much but really grateful that these videos are available.

Man... Seeing cayde is so.... Beautiful

So I got Destiny 2 a while back and started playing it only to realize that the main campaign is gone. I thought it was because I got it for free so I bought the legendary expansion. Turns out that Bungie decided to get rid of the MAIN FUCKIN CAMPAIGN. That pissed me off so much cause the whole reason why I got it was to play the Red War campaign

Watching this has confirmed my hazy memories of failsafe being my favorite character

Only came here for 9:40 - 11:20 but kept watching because the gameplay feels so clean
