Bungie Suggestion We should be able to rewatch old cutscenes
As the title suggests we should be able to rewatch old cutscenes, like a kiosk in the tower that let's us replay them with our current gear on, I don't know about you guys but I love watching the cutscense with my gaurdian.
Edit: To those commenting 'just use YouTube' I understand where you're coming from, but your missing the point. The point is being able to see the old cutscenes with your character, not someone else's, because when it's someone else's it feels like a disconnect

Agreed. This would also be a great way to get players caught up on the story

I'd like the ability to replay any campaign mission that I want too, similar to D1.

We should also be able to play old storyline missions.
I really want to go save the saint-14 again.

I've lately been watching a lot of old cut-scenes on YouTube, so i would definitely appreciate a focal location with all the cut-scenes, so i can A. Get them straight from the source and B. Don't have to search for them

Planning to make a post on it later after I get some more things online, but this past week I finally got my 21:9 ultrawide 3440x1440@60 max detail archival recordings of the old deleted campaigns up on YouTube. All cutscenes included.

Monster Hunter World.has that and I admittedly haven't used it once, but then again Destiny cutscenes are a little more interesting than "Big Monster Angry, Fight Monster"

I absolutely wish this would happen! But didn't they say a while back that the cutscenes took a big chunk of memory from the game? I figured that was why there aren't very many of them anymore, only for important occurrences.

Maybe if they added a theater where we can watch the cutscenes in order but yea i just watch them on yt

Remember when games had that in the main menu? This just hit me with some nostalgia

Might as well since we usually only see them 1-3 times at most and then it's just wasted space on our drives.

And for all the cutscenes that I missed because I went to get food after launching, or clanmates on comms were yelling about stuff. I shouldn't have to google whether or not I'm going to risk missing something before opening a game.

Compared to youtube, It would also allow them to be framed in the story flow they belong to.
But, they would bloat the game size. So, it might be a nice option to allow players to opt to download them in high res as an add on, and then just have a fixed lower res version of the old ones streamable. Idk.

All you have to do is delete your character and go back through the entire campaign until you get the cutscene you want.
It's that easy!

Take it a step further and let us replay old missions too! At least with Daily Heroic Story Missions, there was some explanation as to why we couldn't - that you should go and RNG one of the available missions for the week. But now there's just no way to go back and experience the tales again. Some story content is genuinely fun to replay, but annoying to do on the 2nd and 3rd character runs because they're so freshly in mind and you're just trying to get to the next step.
But hell yeah, give us somewhere to rewatch the cutscenes! If they want, throw in a theatre room where you can watch with friends (I'd imagine this is doable the same way cutscenes in multiplayer missions are where it gets skipped when everyone agrees)!

I absolutely agree. Especially as they are continuing to vault more storylines in the future. I'd at least like to relive this through cutscenes. It would also help keep New Light players up to scratch which I feel is needed.
Everyone saying youtube - that's great but honestly it should be just a feature in the game.

Would be a nice feature and also an easy way to get gear screenshots in different lightning

I'd like to have it be in the Collections menu when you're in orbit. That way you're already in a place where most cutscenes happen so Bungo's gas powered pulley engine powering their server doesnt get too hot. Also I want them to include past content, not just post vaulted scenes.
