It seems like Bungie is winding down events for D1. Am I misinterpreting?
I guess I assumed that as long as the servers were up, D1 would continue to run on automatic pilot for a good long while just as it has since the final update. I'm probably overstating how automatic it is.
Year 4 D1
They confirmed this was the last Iron Banner and next weekend is the last Trials. I think everything else will continue to function on autopilot, like the 360 version does I guess.
My wish is that they undo most of the PvP balance patches before D2 comes out, but that wish ain't happening.

How does it feel to have your game decay through time? Features and modes removed? Didn't someone say something about this back in 2013? I can't remember who…
But seriously, it's kind of shitty they can't set up an autopilot system for Iron banners every six weeks and trials every week.

It feels fine. I'll be happily playing Destiny 2 with Destiny 1 deleted from my hard drive.

I can play a ton of "fully" featured games nowadays, but they don't have the population for it. Yeah it's one thing to be able to get A gametype to work in matchmaking, but nothing can bring back the heyday of Doubles Halo: Reach during the few years I played it.
So while I definitely think more should be done to archive the software so it can be catalogued in a museum, I still don't care about your point at all regardless of when you said it.
D1 being deleted for D2.
Not by me but some people I know with the 500GB drive are not going to be playing D1 in the foreseeable future. D2 exclusively.
I'll be deleting D1 anyway.
It just takes up too much space, and all of my friends are jumping to D2, so there's not really any reason to play it again as far as I'm concerned. I did everything I wanted to do except use a fatebringer, but that's a pretty minor gripe. Like super minor. Why did I even mention it?

2TB drive. Even with many Halo's, Titanfall 1 and 2, Destiny, Forza, World of Tanks, Lara Croft and most of the free Gold games I still have more than 1TB remaining.
This will likely change with XB1X and 4K game assets. I don't think I'll need a bigger drive, though the least used games may get deleted.
Can't recommend external drives enough

Faster access times and possibly huge upgrade to storage. The 500GB internal drive was a terrible decision for a platform that was born TO push digital gaming...

I use these with each console.

I've bought several of these. I have had one fail.

Good god. The 4 TB version is only $109.99. I remember when hard drives cost $1/MB. Modern science is great.

Get off my lawn. :-p When I was first using computers, they were $40 a megabyte.
In 1985, you would have paid the equivalent of $3,329 for 20MB of storage!
I owned a Hard Disk 20!

The first HDD my family had was a 20MB SCSI that sat under our original Macintosh. That thing had a metal case that could kill. Heavy, Metal, Sharp edges, it was amazing.

In high school I was getting into film making. I saved my money and bought Final Cut Pro and a 60 GB hard drive. My school guidance counselor was shocked. "60GB?! Why did you get so much? There's no way you'll ever fill that up!"
I filled it up in 4 weeks.
Any USB 3.0 will do

I suppose quality helps, but I don't think most would fail within the console's expected lifetime, especially since the OS won't run on them. I'm currently using (and have used for the past 2 years) a WD MyPassport (the new model is quite cheaper), but it was a gift, so even if it does fail, it would still have been worth its price to me. :p
D1 deleted for D2 Beta for me

Yes - unless xbox

Technically we in the land of Xbox, who don't also have a Ps4, will be getting access to new content in... October from the top of my head. After that, yea... Destiny is simply your time portal to how things were.
Before the dark times, before Ghaul.
