The "mythic science fiction" genre is a category of video games that not many game developers have delved into. This makes "Destiny 2" an absolute must-try in the realm of multi-platform, open-world, multiplayer gaming.

Assume you are looking for a new game on a lazy evening. Look no further than this first-person shooter video game, developed by Bungie and published by Activision. This article will discuss how to start your journey as a Guardian with tips first shared in a Space.com piece.

The Light Always Finds Its Way

At the game's beginning, your character reclaims their lost Light after losing it. You are blessed with powers by the Traveler's parting gift. 

Primarily, players take on the role of a Guardian, a protector of Earth's last city who can harness the power of the Light to wield incredible abilities and defend the city from hostile alien forces.

Guardians have a companion robot called Ghost who helps them harness the Light's power and use it through special abilities known as space magic.

The game features simple but satisfying gunplay and ability systems, which allow players of every skill level to feel powerful and valuable. Each class also has access to three different subclasses: Solar, Arc, and Void, plus a special subclass introduced in Beyond Light which uses the power of Darkness, called Stasis.

Into Shared Worlds

"Destiny 2" is a popular first-person shooter game on various platforms, including PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (Steam and EGS). 

One of the game's main features is cross-platform play and cross-saves, which allows players to easily switch between different platforms and devices while keeping their progress.

For new players, the game offers a beginner's guide that clarifies the essentials of "Destiny 2" and eases players into the game. 

The game has undergone significant changes over the years, with much of the early content, including the original Red War campaign, being "vaulted." The game now has a quick timeline of major past events to help newcomers get up to speed.

The Last City on Earth

The game's main hub is the Tower, which serves as a social space atop the defensive wall encircling the Last City on Earth. Players can receive most rewards from quests, challenges, and events here. Players are encouraged to check in regularly with the main ally in each planet/moon/station to get secondary tasks.

For new players, it is recommended to prioritize the story campaign content first and then move on to public events, strikes, and raids. The game also includes a deep loot system with various weapons and armor that players can collect and upgrade, affecting how the player's Guardian performs against other Guardians.

"Destiny 2" has a lot to offer players of all levels, with an immersive storyline, ambitious lore, and a gameplay loop that's easy to grasp but still challenging to master. Fans of space-set games will find a lot to enjoy in this game.
