To list them up... I miss from Destiny 1: * Weapon leveling (unlocking the skills and perks made you actually value your trash rolls and rolls in general than today) * Factions and Rep Levels (they were, after the TTK/Rise of Iron reworks, a very good time sink for endgame players and casuals alike) * Weapons Day (do I need to say more?) * Character leveling from ground up (Destiny 1 starts with you discovering all those skill tree options through XP unlocks and you start by a reasonable 0 power instead of 1350 or what it is nowadays) * Areas felt more mysterious and long-lasting * Heroic Strike Playlist * Combined Arms (Crucible Mode/Maps) * Special Ammo Boxes (hate me for that, but I love how those boxes did slow down the game pace in PvP and forced micro-choke points on maps) * Armor designs (wish we had more armor designs from [url=https://www.artstation.com/yavorsky/albums/14349]James Yavorsky[/url] from D1 in Destiny 2) * Weapon designs * Locations felt grittier and more dangerous (Destiny 2 looks too bright/explored. "Darkness" is barely feel-able imo) So far I don't think I can nail down some more. If you know/miss something, feel free to add it in the comments. Let us discuss our favorite aspects of D1, Veterans :)
