After a few months away from Destiny, I spent my first day with Rise of Iron as if I were joining anew. I was curious; how would a new player jumping into Rise of Iron via the Destiny Collection fare? It might take a bit to learn the difference between character level and Light level, sure, but I was immediately impressed by how quickly it brought me up to speed without sacrificing a challenge for the veteran Guardian. That aside, the new two-or-so-hour campaign feels short compared to its actual plot and doesn’t really introduce new mechanics to Destiny — it’s plenty of fun and has more of everything I already like about Destiny’s story missions, but it also does little to improve upon its strengths or fix its problems.
