Not a leak/datamine but here's a super old D1 early dev video from 2011 that i don't recall seeing being talked about ever :)

I've only ever seen the screenshots from this, never the video. Super cool stuff!

Found it sitting on a devs artstation account that only had 80 views 😭 was shocked as hell

“Portals” AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

For anyone wondering, portals were what they called strikes internally way back then. And a fun detail is that the "Comet" on the character selection screen was the in-game way of telling the player the big DLC is out. (what eventually would be called Taken King)

It’s so crazy every time I find out how much of a massive vision the devs had for this game. And then I start thinking about how we need to do medieval style tortures on the ceos of Bungie.

WHAT DOES "THE COMET HAS ARRIVED" MEAN!? TELL MEEEEE!!!

Early display of when the new dlc would be released

I remember that part, but was it something in the game that we never got?

Comet is just what the big yearly expansions were codenamed, ex Taken King

this is awesome

all of the D1 scrapped stuff has such a strange feeling to it and I love it

If only they kept this style holy fuck its cool as hell

good heavens the prototype portal system was an actual thing all this time, and I wished we got this variant of it, because it felt more blended in with the world and menu of the game than too forced like the current portal system.

More soul in this compared to current D2 :(

Can the ui get this lively again?

There's parts of D1 pre alpha code and assets that seem reminiscent. For example, I can name a character. Don't think that's a thing in release D1? But technically possible. Also the director has a 'you are here' icon which suggests being able to open it in activities

portals… they where here all the time, lurking in the shadows and now it returned jk but this looks really interesting tho and this sorta “social space” and the menu and everything

Destiny has abandoned the “feel” of the universe along its lifetime…

Wow. I love the way the director pulls up, like it’s on a sci fi data pad. Reminds me of renegades slightly but better

this game at launch couldve been so much more unlucky that social space looks sick

this just has so much more aura i love it

The pop up menu animations and sounds are perfect 😩

So glad Bungie moved away from that concept of having a singular UI be the hub for game activities like a main menu only to return to it 14 years later

Oh boy, the Portal Derangenent Syndrome crowd are gonna loose their shiet.

This is so weird...

Godd damn this game went through so many iterations

@NuCaloric You're not gonna believe what shows up at 32 seconds

I've never seen that before

I wish there was D1 beta build leak

This has so much more soul than D2. If they just polished it, it'd be perfectm

Si no recuerdas haberlo visto nunca, ¿Cómo es que qué tienes acceso a dicho video? 👀

This version of Destiny looked so interesting and exciting

0:32 jumpscare

Ohhh i like some of that

those bells when loading in is peak can we get that back

Lower black garden' 'Upper black garden' We could have so much more black garden content on the release of the game
