Presumably for more areas that would be impossible on a 360/PS3

I may be reading into it to much
They could just be dropping old gen to give them slightly more freedom with Vanilla updates and expansion
Still believe D2 to be a completely new game from the ground up

The fact this is apparently current gen only is pretty exciting as it means they may be able to push the boundaries a little bit more
I hope there isn't. Getting around the memory limits of a ps3/360 could really help with providing larger environments and cutting back on the terrible load transitions between ship/tower/ship/pvp/ship/tower/repeat.
Leaving the 360/PS3 behind right now would be fantastic.
It's very clear that those consoles are holding the game down, so it's time to cut the cord.
Remember that Rockstar did the same for GTA Online, abandoning last gen consoles for quite a while now.

As for the expansion, I'm really looking forward to it. If the other "leak" is correct and this will indeed include a new Raid, I can see myself spending hours and hours on Destiny once again.

10 days before FF15.
I just wish it wasn't a Tuesday release. I might take PTO from Tuesday til Thursday and work from home on Friday.

Someone hasn't kept up with Destiny, have they?
Just baffled by how progressively stupid it keeps getting.

The reveal is tomorrow....patience man lol.
Taken King was great and destiny has gotten progressively better, by a long shot................
No, the sequel was rebooted a few months ago with Luke Smith heading up the team. I'm not sure if there's any part of Rise of Iron that was intended for Destiny 2, but they had to have something out in 2016 to keep players going.
No compromise probably.

What was the date in September when you're required to have Neo support (supposedly)?
Hopefully they'll allow platform switching. Hopefully, since they're integrated to bungie.net anyway.

A lot. It actually sold a ton on last gen

I'm expecting they will tease a bit of Destiny 2 at E3 but no gameplay. It will be interesting if they announce PC support at E3. . I might have to consider switching over.

We don't know what they meant fully by that. We could carry over our physical appearance for all we know and nothing else.
Image doesn't mention 360 or PS3 at all.

Bungie pulled the listing.
It's always been a mix of science fiction and fantasy. The player characters are magical undead light warriors resurrected by a mystical space ball.

Not people that still game on the PS3 and XB360.

This thing better be fucking good.
The Destiny engine and gameplay is so ace, but the amount of content and the progression mechanics have always been pretty bad.
I just want to play your awesome game without getting burned out right away.

Maybe RAM isn't enough?
Destiny is a marquee game for PS4, I imagine Sony will make sure it gets Neo enhancements regardles of the official timeline.

You can't hold up progress because of that, majority of the user base has moved on and so has the industry. They will upgrade sooner or later.

So they can make Rise of Iron better?
The Taken King already have some weird limitations on the 360/PS3 like the spinning part on the Touch of Malice. It doesn't move on last-gen.

Isn't this free? Or am I misremembering? I thought they said something along the lines of everything released before "Destiny 2" would be free...
That's their fault, we need to leave those consoles behind.

I hope there is more possible now.

Where is the trailer?
This won't be free.
Moa

Nope.
There was an article on Kotaku saying all future updates to Destiny would be free, i.e. the free updates from the live team like Crimson Doubles and SRL.
Actual expansions like The Taken King and Rise of Iron will continue to cost.

For me it depends on what we're getting for a certain price point.
If there's only 1 new area again (the dreadnaught was great, but it was still only one place) and one new raid and a few new strikes for 40 bucks - I'll pass and wait for a while. If there's some new gameplay element though, I'll be down (please be space combat please be space combat please...)

It's a full blown expansion.

Ha, I know. I'm not faulting them for not telling me more. I'm just eager to see what they're bringing to the table because I frankly don't know what they could do with the existing product that would satisfy me at this point.

They put up the promotional image on the website by mistake.
Trailer launches tomorrow on their live stream.

Destiny is basically about space magic and alien demons. This is pretty consistent with what's been before.
