Also, uh, the latest release is pretty good. If you care, avoid spoilers, intro is a relative banger.
If I had to summarize the play style of the act, think Pale Heart overthrow events combined with Coil rogue lite elements but in the Dreadnaught. Solo or matchmade. Shiny/double perk/adept variants of all the new weapons. No health regen at all inside the new activity which is not as much of a problem as it sounds.

Ok, so this game is still a fucking mess to find out what to buy to "optimize" our time: What should friends and I buy to maximize value if we wanted to come back and play for 50–100 hours? I believe we have Witch Queen and everything before that.
Is Lightfall worth buying at all? What does the Final Shape Annual Pass give that's not already included in the base expansion? Are these dungeon keys something you need on top of owning an expansion? We're most interested in playing the Final Shape expac and whatever this new dungeon is.
Man, what a fucking mess this game is, lol. It's such a shame because the little I've played it was a blast.

Buy this bundle for $30. You should have everything except two dungeon keys (no more of them moving forward).
Annual passes always include the expansion itself, the year of season content, dungeon keys and usually some materials/cosmetic shit. Base expansion purchases only include the first of four seasons and they don't include dungeon keys. They are the broke bitch college student option. Get it all at once.
That bundle should get you access to everything except:
Duality, Spire of the Watcher (WQ key),
Ghosts of the Deep, Warlord's Ruin (LF key)

Yearly cycle begins again.
As far as playable content goes, Rite of the Nine started today and it's a 3-dungeon event similar to the raid event they did last year. New difficulties, drops, etc. Free to everyone including two dungeons that are usually paywalled.
If you are planning on getting it, GMG already has an 18% discount for $82 total - the next year of Destiny for the price of a Switch 2 game.
- Gear reset, UI overhaul, matchmaking changes across the board, ability to fully progress through PVP.
- No more paid seasonal content or activities, passes will just be resources and cosmetics.
- First part of the year will be introduction to the Nine as the new antagonists
- Second part of the year seems like a focus on the lawless frontier with a Star Wars motivation.
- Edge of Fate is a non-linear campaign where you get ability upgrades ala Metroidvania and go back to expand on areas (including a morph-ball).
- Mention of world tiers related to unlocking the campaign abilities

Having an entire expansion be themed on someone else's IP feels really odd to me.
Sure, Vampire Survivors has done it (grab the free Romancing Saga pack if you haven't), and Fortnite has a Star Wars season going on right now (including, of all things, Darth Jar Jar - that's a meta joke I can get behind) - but those are seasonal riffs that may not even be accessible after they're over. Whereas this Destiny content will be live forever (or until that planet gets vaulted).

They said bi-yearly expansions so at least it won't be a whole year. I'm not sure how it's going to work either, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I want a lightsaber in D2.

Really expect it's just a cosmetic nod to SW and not any type of actual crossover. The tooltip in game mentions a new Dredgen popping up around the edge of the system so it could just be another Forsaken vibe bounty hunt expac. Makes sense for Destiny to have a lawless frontier given all the guys Drifter used to hang with.
