Not really interested in what comes next to Destiny.
It's a double edged sword. They should've titled it "Witness what's next and witness what's gone" haha. The gameplay loop in Destiny is top notch, and the storytelling has gotten much better, but expect to play only Destiny after that. Because the game is a second job for sure.
True; and as you said some of the previous content (even paid one) was removed or is not accessible anymore right?
Correct. A lot of the previous content has actually been removed from the game. You'd be surprised how much you can't play anymore, despite all of it having been paid content. So as cool as it is to see what's coming next, you can't help the feeling be bittersweet at the same time because you wonder what's going to be removed.
Here's a summary of what was removed when Bungie introduced the "Vault" if you're interested to see how much is gone.

For me there is no excuse to remove older content, if they so much needed/wished just break the world into dimensions and let people go to the previous dimension if they want.
it's all about pushing us to move onto and pay for the next bit of content , I played destiny from the beginning and loved the gameplay and even the story while not complete wasn't bad and had potential ,but just as it seemed to be moving in the right direction from the player characters standpoint , suddenly its start again time with destiny 2 and the same thing happens it starts off great with lots to discover and some interesting characters but very little of it is integrated into the fuller picture and after awhile it becomes like living in a house that's continually being renovated.
I assume this will be laying out some basics at the next couple seasons, and maybe a teaser of the next annual expansion.
Destiny 2 is in really good shape right now. I hope they can keep it that way for a while.
