This is part of IGN First btw and shows shots of the game plus interviews with the developer. Seeing as the OP is barebones as fuck.
Damn! Forgot to add IGN First to the title.

Really? I think it´s the single best piece of Destiny 2 content they´ve shown.
Hype has increased significantly!

I like what they're saying, but unless someone uses a new power or they show the farm I really can't tell the difference between 1 and 2. They nailed the art style in the first game, but I really wish the graphics were better.
Unannounced location?
Looks like some sort of moon.
Looks like it could be Mercury.
This is what Mercury looked like in D1:

I love Luke. He's awesome.
I'm hearing a lot of great stuff in this video but I just hope it truly comes into fruition. Can't wait. So excited for the Beta.
Really do hope that sense of progression they talk about here is real, and that the surprises they have are huge, content and gameplay wise.

Is there going to be any space combat? I really want to fly my own ship lol
Loadout lock for certain activities very welcome addition, imo. It forces you and your team to actually look at what you are going to do [what strike, what modifiers, what enemy types it has...] and coordinate around that.
Assuming they don't do cookie cutter weapons like Gjallarhorn this time.

Oh yes that makes more sense.

No.
Ships are a kinda custom loading screen, they are not interested in ship combat.

Two new things:
- loadout locking
- lore tied to exotics
What else is new info?

Lore tied to exotics is not new, what they mean is that along with the story they will be properly or more detailed developed in the game.
Voidwalker.

I take it to mean that we will see much greater lore detail and story attached to exotics than we do now. Maybe not?

I'd imagine it's just a simple rename of the Armor stat that we currently have in Destiny.

It depends on what you want as "greater detail"
For example, the Gjally quest from ROI is quite detailed and follows the lore perfectly.
The original story is way better but impossible to replicate ingame unless it has a cutscene lol.

Give me beards instead of ridiculous dance emotes!
This is why Destiny private matches need more customization. You would be able to bring poker night into Destiny. Smh Bungie.
This kind of ties in with one of my requests for Destiny 2:
Side missions where you play as NPCs such as Cayde and Amanda. They would be missions you unlock as you get further into the game. They could either be related to the current Destiny 2 plot or be flashback missions giving you more insight into the characters.
The game would then give you a pre-set loadout to do that.
(I doubt that's what is happening but I would love it.)

dance emotes = can use any time, any where, totally visible
beards = only visible in a social space because only place helmet is off
Pls.
Why?
Destiny 1 had next to no challenge because it had cookie cutter weapons and you could always adjust to any situation at any given second. Loadout lock sound very interesting to me as it forces fireteam to do some planning at beforehand and not YOLO hotswap 24/7 during mission.

Agree with this.
If we want to experience new things, new twists on the D1 approach to things, we have to be willing to let go of everything we are used to. If it proves fun and challenging, I'm all for it.

Bungie doesn't know how to do beards.

tbh they also changed the name of a bunch of shit so it makes sense.
I am very interested in everything they just showed in this video.

I think thats striker titan

Striker.
There's another image in the thread the shows off the Voidwalker and it has purple icons. The blue icons on the HUD would indicate Arc.
I'm saying that the 2 minutes of new footage shown here looks more interesting than what they showed at their big hour long event back in May.
Their handling of showing off the game has just been strange.
