All im saying this is by far the most ive played and the most things ive felt like there is to do on DLC launch in a while

The grind feels back and im so happy about that

Aren't you, /dg/?

uhm how come III looks liek a strange coin??

The most I've played since forsaken, I really should create another account so I can buy the annual pass again.

I think the worst part is that I can't tell if these are posts making fun of BDF or if there are actually mouthbreathing retards like this in these threads.

campaign started a little slow, but once we started getting more and more reveals and new plot points, i got more invested. definitely need to play it again though because i still have some stuff i'm confused about that a 2nd run may help with.

The existence of stinkier shit does not mean the previous dump taken didn't stink.

How powerful would a guardian master chief be?

>>531689309
>>the music is mid
You can really feel the loss of Salvatori. Still fucking mind boggling they fired him.
The music was usually one of the high points even if the campaign/gameplay was shit. Looks like even the music is gonna be bland now.

>>531689603
honestly? not very. master chief only has one life canonically so even though he's very successful and quite powerful he hasn't had the experience that comes with dying a million times

I'm dooming

I BOUGHT THE EDGE OF FATE

But that just means that he’s more impressive. He’s accomplished way more without dying.

>>531690092
Yui

>>531690329
hes killed thousands, numbers that the weakest guardians have. The Guardian has killed millions of enemies.

Super strong.
This sleeping Guardian with exceptional Light from D1 is meant to be a reference to Chief.

>>531690440
Nothing about EoF is redeemable

>>531691054
Whoops, attached the wrong image.
Picrel is the correct one.

>>531690405
When master chief gave the covenant back there bomb he killed more covenant than the vast majority of guardians.

>>531691253
Need to show some gamedev credentials to back that claim up

so after finishing the campaign, i left all the side missions and stuff to do.
is this when i increase the world tier or do i finish the side stuff first, then increase world tier?

>>531691253
yes, and?

>>531690405
I think the original premise was if john halo became a guardian. Metal bones don't give an advantage since there's exo guardians, but the enhanced reflexes, crazy strength, and magic luck are probably better building blocks for the light to work with than a regular human/exo/awoken.

For as much as they reference about old Chicago in these games, its ridiculous that we never go there. I get that designing environments is hard and there's different skills depending on what you're making but i feel like making a old abandoned city would be way easier than making a new alien world.

Sorry pal you're getting more gay cosmic nine bullshit. Also For a supposed season and theme that's called "reclaim" currently our characters don't really seem to give a shit about taking back the planet we live on.

>>531689309
>the story is mid
The story itself is actually good, at least by destiny standards, Lodi feels like a proper character and not just something that was tacked on, but the story missions, the gameplay is so fucking awful, that it ruins anything it touches. Kinda the opposite of lightfall, the gameplay was fun, but the story was so painfully bad.
And fuck that motion sickness simulating ball. I don't even have motion sickness, but I get light headed from it, I can't even begin to imagine how people with motion sickness feel.

>>531691415
Blowing up halo and firing the ring at the arc also killed more than The Guardian ever has. Last i checked, we haven't engaged in any forms of mass genocide. No planets, no fleets, hardly even any ships, we crashed a satellite station, but endless fallen crawled out of the wreckage. Unless i'm completely forgetting something

>>531682220
>poster child for LGBTBBQ stuff
It was around 2020, and it's why I'll never take the game seriously ever again. Even if it's handed off to a completely different studio, too many "people" dug their fingers into the scraps left behind by the people that actually seemed to care until they morphed this franchise into the gay slop it is today. It will always be tainted.

Tyson Grind

I'm a really big fan of how Lodi is weirded out by our character not talking

>you can't infuse any gear you want beyond 200PL because unstable cores are limited
LOL FUCKING DOOOOOOGSHIT GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME

>>531693684

I just fucking killed Calus legendary. What a fucking intense fight, harder than than the Witness and Savathûn.

>>531693684
the fuck do you mean they're limited?

>>531694385
They aren't, you need to dismantle 200+ gear to get them.

>>531692907
>the story itself is actually good
Not reading the rest of your post
I bet you like Marvel and Star Wars

>>531694601
I don't, but you're trying to hard being a contrarian faggot. Let me guess, you think stellar blade has immaculate story. Off yourself, AGP tranny.

>>531692927
This is only kind of related but I remember a couple of years ago some guy made a video about it the Covenant would be able to attack the city from Destiny. He said yes but all of the comments were shitting on him which I thought was ridiculous. A covenant carrier is almost 10 times as large as Ghaul’s ship and Truth’s fleet was far larger than Ghaul’s. All they would really need to do is to get one ship in there to do a skip space jump and the entire city would be destroyed like in Halo 2 and ODST.

Oh wait, renegade doesn't have a raid...and edge of fate has no new dungeons...wtf

>>531694032
Genuinely one of my favorite fights in the game. Shame about Calus getting character assassinated because that was a kino bossfight otherwise.

>>531691341
>a ghost resurrecting a guardian that isn't his
This makes absolutely no sense lore wise.

is there any way to cancel the new world thingys?
i want to use my melee ability sometimes because i built into it but i am blocked from doing so by this green thingy

guardian... there's no content here...

>>531694693
>If you aren't a basedboy you are a gooner
Holy projection

>>531694830
The covenant glass whole planets, and have fleets in the millions, with tens of thousands of ships that could wipe out modern earth on their own. The last city, before red war, only had a few hundred thousand jumpships, mostly unarmed, and a paltry amount of Anti-air defenses. Even after getting Cabal, Fallen, and Awoken fleets, the last city's defenses don't even come close to what earth had in halo. Especially now that the warsats have been destroyed

>that secret boss for the catalyst piece for graviton spike
this isnt fun

>Tyson Greene killed Destiny
I can't fault him really. W....WAIT put the pitchfork down let me explain. Imagine a once prestigious pizzeria that had diverse toppings calls you and tells you they are failing and need you to save them. Ok you say how hard can that be? You show up to the pizzeria and they inform you that the only toppings they have left is spinach anf broccoli. 70% of the staff left. We are running low on dough so you have to stretch out all the dough to last longer than normal. Also we have a pizzeria gift shop filled with shirts and souvenirs we want this to be 80% of the pizzeria now. Oh go make us profitable again.

I don't think he can do anything to save this game and exists to salvage as much as he can until the management jumps ship when they get paid their bonuses. Maybe he is aware and buying time and maybe he isn't and this is the best course of action he thinks but I don't think he can do anything to save Destiny.

>>531697183
All he had to do what build upon what Joe made. Just like Joe did after Luke left. Instead the retarded boomer gutted whole game systems to shove everyone into a soulless mobile game ui.

>encore removed
>grapple modifier removed
>all the streamers are almost done with the power grind so in a couple of days/weeks they will all stream something else
>the average player will feel so far behind he will loose all the will to keep grinding and leave the game (there's nothing else to do)
>the raid will probably be more ball slop
is this finally it bros?

>>531697347
Nah its not enough you need content and they just don't have the staff anymore to keep up thus why there is so much reused shit in it.

>>531697183
>food analogy

>>531697654
>Nah its not enough you need content and they just don't have the staff anymore to keep up thus why there is so much reused shit in it.
Well they clearly can't make enough content given this DLC. Instead of the portal they should have just bolstered the main Playlists with better rewards.

>>531697443
Wait for the raid itself. If confirmed it really just just elaborated Kepler abilities for the mechanics it really will be over.

I cannot wait to see this grifting gook scream and rage at his teammates tommorow when they fuck up one mechanic and then inevitably black out their screen because their butthurt random lfg teams are taking their strats from them

>>531697986
Yea thats my point. You could put the greatest game developer in charge and he would never be able to dig out of this hole whoever it is.

>>531658507
Didn't another team get wf in a recentish raid but the clear wasnt recognized cause a member of the team had antiblm stuff in his tag

>>531697654
I never understood this point, bungie must still have what, 300 people working on destiny? how much more do you need, how incompetent are they?

>>531698153
Joe left the game in a pretty good state better than when Luke removed half the game. And now Tyson decided to remove the remaining soul of Destiny.

>>531698294
I imagine very incompetent

>>531698318
Yup and then mass layoffs happened and here we are. It doesn't matter what Joe left they don't have the man/mind power to keep up

Hold up are pursuit weapons gone too? What about Vanguard/Crucible/Gambit shaders and projections?

>>531694568
so limited

i found a comfy hole in the wall

>>531692907
That ball is fucking buggy. It keeps jerking your camera instantly, it's not continual smooth motion. Your camera keeps getting telefraged and reset by random geometry pixels. How the fuck it's even remotely acceptable.

>>531699720
@grok is this real?

>>531699209
sorry bub eververse needed those shaders and projections. pursuit weapons dont exist but there are portal specific playlist weapons for solo/fireteam, pinnacle and crucible with crucible having overlap with solo/fireteam

>>531699803

Where is the nightfall gear? Where is the Gambit gear?

have there been any datto meltys so far?

gonna watch the raid race then i'm never touching any destiny related content ever again
the end is near bros

>gonna watch the raid race then i'm never touching any destiny related content ever again
You already bought the expansion and have them money why are you acting like you are protesting? You know you will buy the next one because you have 0 self control

one of my friends quit this shitty game after they took it off battle net and hasn't played since. imagine going out on a high like season of opulence bros...

i'm bored someone post art of the female characters

>>531701761
No pajeet coomer sorry you are going to have to go an hour without masturbating

>>531700205
retired, everything is in the portal now

>>531681053
earth shattering TRVTHNVKE

under Joe's direction the game was irreparably damaged and the tone ruined
3 back to back expansions with trash nonsensical stories that retconned and shat all over the already established lore and characters, and anyone who thinks that the stories of WQ/LF/TFS were even remotely good should go back to listening Jabba the Byf gargle Bungie's piss
and then there are the seasonal stories with masterpieces like Splicer, Plunder, Seraph, Deep, really most of them after BL were shit
Stasis is half useless and has one super per class. here's a new Light super for each class btw. third Darkness subclass? never heard of it
the Light and Darkness """Saga""" nonsense is moronic, the Witness and everything involving it is an abomination that shouldn't exist, Strand too
Neomuna and the Pale Heart are all reused assets with the latter having modern art installations sprinkled throughout, Prismatic and the Dread were last minute panic reskins because they saw no one was impressed with the first TFS reveal
all of the redditors that think TFS was the best narrative since Taken King should drown in a deep pool of piss

and even the good stuff he did was half-assed
like crafting which was a fucking mess with a million currencies at the start, and they flip-flopped on what should and shouldn't be craftable since it was added, still waiting for that craftable Hawkmoon
here's transmog, Ada is a seamstress now but, oh you can only do a limited number of her bounties per season for synthweave teehee
not even gonna say anything about bringing challenge back to Destiny, the overload minotaur already did that
the best thing he did was the seasons not being removed right away but Luke already talked about that and fomo even before the release Beyond Light

but idiots and apologists still praise him because idk, WQ slapped and TFS was pure cinema or however the 10,000 (+2000 Bonus) Destiny 2 Silver bundle is bought

>>531701960
Portal is the ultimate form of "Destiny Content Vault"?

Why the hell is shit blue gear and old purple armor dropping it's all useless

>>531702130
I am going to give an after nuke. Destiny 2 was never good. The Destiny series was good during taken king then it went to shit again then was good during ROI and since then has never been good

I just dont get why destiny ISNT a multimedia franchise
the setting has a ton of space for a playground but we only hear about it in in-game lore
wheres the novels? animations? that kind of thing
even halo got novels

I can hope for a destiny secret level episode I guess? if it gets one and its not just 40k slop+concord again

>>531701340
I said "watch" though
I have not bought EOF, and clearly never will
two friends who got the ultimate edition already regret it
contest raids and dungeons were the only thing that kept me playing
i'm not paying 100$ for one shitty raid and one dungeon per year
i'm doing another DDDA playthrough instead

>>531701761

>just yapping

>>531702531
mismanagement and Bungie ignorance that stems from the Halo days where they can't just rest on an IP and have to keep making shit no one wants

Is it still possible to refund EoF if I played like 10+ hours already.

>>531702531
They had the plans, but they fucked it all up, then diverted the money towards multiple internal incubation projects, marathon being one of them, none of that shit worked out either.
The marathon hype train got derailed, crashed, and burnt.

>>531702593
I guarantee you this retard watches AEW wrestling. It's the same "woe as me I am a victim why are these bullies saying bad stuff about something I like" bullshit AEW fans pull

>>531702531
Until shortly before he left the company, Luke Smith was working for years on at least one known Destiny TV series. I can only presume that it's been canned or never got off the ground.
They were looking for ways to turn Destiny into a multimedia franchise, but those attempts never seemed to go anywhere.

>>531702670
My friend managed to refund after 4 hours, he cited motion sickness and inability to complete the campaign.

>>531702762
They didn't even try. How hard would it be to get someone to write a prequel novel series? You had the grimoire mapped out already for them

>>531702583
post some rare pics

>>531702583
SAARS POST MORE SAARS BENCHOD BLOODY

>>531702531
Because history of Destiny is a fucking mess. It started badly, somehow recovered, but then derailed again by Destiny 2, and that fucked up cycle continued to this day. Destiny is a generational talent that never managed to find it's footing.
Second you think they've got this in a bag, they somehow manage to get a freak injury, and it's back to the pits again.
Nobody takes Destiny seriously outside it's fan base. Optics are bad. You're always met with derision and sneers whenever you mention Destiny.
They never had a time to build up a healthy multimedia franchise, because they never got the momentum right. They were fighting against themselves all this time.

We never had a consistent leadership behind this franchise. Think. Pretty much any big multimedia franchise can be attributed to the one VISIONARY or the team. Not Destiny.

>>531702593
I DO judge shit on its merits, though.
The ammo meter system is largely very good, but has some confusing complications that hold it back, like the speed limit or relatively narrow Ammo Generation stat distribution.
The stat rework is going to be great long-term, but it's held back right now by actively going against the armor sets that people have previously farmed, and archetypes being heavily limited (also stat values being Tier locked).
The tiered loot system is a good idea and on paper could revitalize the game, but the way they've chosen to execute it in requiring 90~150 hours to get to the good part where you feel like your time farming isn't just busywork is blatant attempts at engagement farming. The reaction to the Encore farm being patched out tells the whole story: Players have realized how much time is locked up in the power grind, and want a way to abridge it, and oppose Bungie enforcing the speed limit. Y'know who else opposed Bungie enforcing the speed limit? Pic related.
The mask cracked, and I can't un-see what was under the mask, even if you repair it. Streamers need to realize that the trust is gone and negative sentiment is only going to get worse. If it was between me streaming D2 and me going out and getting a real job, I'd start filling out applications while I'm still getting income.

Am I retarded or is there no mission page for the season pass now?

>>531703745
Mission page?

>>531703402
If you just isolate the lore, the traveler coming, the dark and golden ages and all the battles and heroes you can make decent content our of that ignoring everything from D1 onwards

>>531703797
or rather, like challenges I don't know
the stuff that gives you big exp for the pass

>>531703202
>>531703269

I like Lodi, his dry snark reminds me of D1 Cayde.

>>531702531
>wheres the novels
This one baffles me. Books are the easiest and cheapest thing they could've done to expand the series beyond the games.

>>531703925
His name sounds like a European grocery store

>>531704213
Wouldn't shock me if the trannies that write the game lore were scared that an actual sci fi writer would come in and raise the standards of the lore and shit on all their childish work putting them out of the job

>>531703885
Quest tab

>>531703885
Ah, that thing still exists, idk why they removed the button from the season pass.
It's in the journey tab.

>>531704225
I like more as Lodie, like Rodie instead of how he says it as "Lodeye"

>>531704316
Probably a reason why Seth Dickinson was never hired, and was stuck as an outside contractor/guest writer. And he still managed to shape the general lore of Destiny.

>>531704225
Can't wait for the Exo named Publix 13
>>>531704316
My eyes have seen what passes for Star Wars literature these days, it can't have been worse in concept then that.

>>531705018
There is good scifi outside of cape shit and star shit

I knew destiny was going to die eventually but it’s weird seeing it crumble in real time. There will be literally no one playing in a month’s time

>>531705274
The death-knell was removing the bounty farm. Farming for bright dust every week on reset was what kept me in.

>>531705274
Even if you just gauge things on content, the only content release between now and September is uh...
...Solstice, I think?

>>531705746
Solstice and some old activities being added to the portal. Ash and Iron is also just a single activity.

Is everyone ready to see Datto finally win his world first he's been owned for years?

>>531705916
I’m ready to see datto blow his brains out, live.

>>531705916
of course

>>531705916
While he in fact had been owned for years, I think you meant owed, like, the world first was owed to him.

>>531706745
Stop being mean to the king, give him a sub instead.

>>531692907
>The story itself is actually good, at least by destiny standards
that's what he said. it's mid.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO MY STREAM INCOME
STOP THE TOXIC CRITICISM

i'm disabling the youtube chat

>>531692907
Once you analyze the story you realize it's also shit and makes no sense. The nine brought two dudes from a very specific point in the distant past just to hear their message as a prank while we did most/all of the work? Mary sue Maya just fucking kills III again for no real reason?

>>531707460
>When the plain yogurt of commentary that Youtube chat represents is too much spice...

>>531708319
The Witness sucked but I struggle to think how Bungie can ham up the lesser villains after him. That faggot was the root cause of countless quadrillions of dead in the entire universe, but now after killing his ass, we gotta take some digital ho for serious? Fucking please.

>>531708580
What's even more funny is that canonically the witness wins in almost every timeline except the one where we exist, so the Nine had this whole elaborate plan where they nearly eradicated all life in the universe (if Orin was also planned) just so they could prank us with this shit a year later, our timeline is a literal anomaly among infinity, and you're telling me the nine predicted this specific future with all the crazy paracausal shit going around? What happened to Guardians make their own Destiny (a quite literal statement in the context of the story)?

I cant wait for them to disable gear higher than t4 to punish the loyal players for grinding beyond their intended vision for the raid.
Now that would be a whole ass vampire killing stake in the coffin.

>>531701761

are you fuckin kidding me? that's all i had to do to be able to use it whenever i want?

A toast! To the D1 Traveler!

It's incredibly funny to me that they keep trying to play up a random houseless archon as a big deal in and oi himself. Without SIVA, archons have ranged from tutorial bosses to strike bosses.

>>531709589
post some ikora

>>531710204
I think the problem with fallen in D2 is that after they killed of the Kell of Kings in a lore book they wrote themselves into a corner because the only fallen leaders left are literally who barons.

>>531701761
the lovely anon that made this for me will live on forever in my heart and i hope that htey are doing wonderfully and well and are happy :)

destiny fucking sucks when the cope of potential is longer a thing

>>531710993
Why does it matter when a character supposedly dies when bungie can just pull whatever space magic bullshit reasoning from their ass to bring them back

>>531710993
I doubt anyone currently working on the story knows what the House of Kings was or what happened to its kell

I might be enjoying the game if I wasn’t crashing in half the missions for some reason, hope the update today fixes that

Apparently you can do farm infinite mats by doing the Weekly story mission and just go up to the first chest. Go to Orbit, and repeat. 5 minute loop.
You then use the mats to focus Keplar gear.

so what makes destiny so overpowered as a universe?

how paracausality works?

>>531713337
There are no rules until there are, and then those rules are broken almost immediately

I've just finished the Lightfall campaign in Legendary and I must say I'm pleasantly surprised. With everything I've read here and especially the memes around Nimbus, I was expecting a pure circus with no flavor but no, the story is overall interesting and the main characters very cool, whether it's Osiris and Caitl or Rohan and Nimbus. So yes, the Nimbus character overplays the naive, young-talking, head-first super-young side, but it wasn't unwatchable or unlistenable either.

I found the Legendary missions very straightforward, especially after doing the Final Shape ones, except for Calus, which still required me to concentrate.

It may come as a surprise, but I preferred this campaign to Final Shape's for two reasons: firstly, in Lightfall, we (the Guardian) are the main hero, whereas in Final Shape, I found that Zavala, Crow and Caides were the main characters and we were relegated to the background. Then because the atmosphere was science fiction, whereas Final Shape is almost pure heroic fantasy (the settings, the peregrinations with the different camps, etc.).

Nobody cares, but I wanted to pay homage to Lightfall.

You’re giving way too much credit and far too much faith in how this shit would translate to an audience that isn’t already aware of it. At best you’re looking at Halo show or Ass Creed Fassbender movie and nobody wants that.

I’m playing through this Edge of Fate opening mission, this is extremely solid so far.

There are small puzzles, you actually have to scour the environment, matterspark feels great to transition out of and back to shooting, the levels are all reset so you’re actually incentivised to use new weapons.

Even the fights feel slightly different. They feel more like Halo 2’s boss fights because the levels are tighter and evokes that 6th gen level design.

There’s even little points of interest in a Metroid fashion to take note of and come back to later.

I’m shocked at the gameplay quality of this for what’s a 6 month long expansion.

If Renegades and the other two play with gameplay ideas like EoF is doing right now, I’m sold.

Im shocked with how good it all feels, because it looked like ass on the streams.

Fell for it award

Which one of you sad EoF is bad, I almost didn’t buy it and it’s so damn good

I can’t relate to any of the criticism aimed at the campaign. I like Matterspark, I like Kepler — I even like Portal. Kepler feels like a Destiny-fied version of Metroid, with traversal mechanics, backtracking, and the way the world invites exploration. (Obviously, Metroid is much deeper and smarter, but you get the idea.)

I didn’t play any of the episodes, and felt myself falling out of love with Destiny forever, but I liked the trailers and decided to try one last time, and I almost didn’t because I’ve seen everyone say it’s super ass. What the hell? Am I stupid?

Lmaoooo math autists saying how basically Bungie full of shit with their ingame numbers, scalars and you’re actually not getting your super or grenade back quicker than what was intended and there’s no efficacy at certain high stat points

shocked i say. shocked

Ten bucks Bungie just goes and says "oh the initial numbers we posted was just incorrect. The current values math-autists posted is actually intended" instead of owning up to being dogshit ass coders and fucking it up.

Can you imagine how fucking pissed bungo probably is that the tranny negress bitch who plays Ikora decided to protest rather than voice act for them, to the point where they had to get another VA, and then the cunt has the audacity to come back after the strike is over and say ackshually she wants to voice the lines now that she got her attention and it's convenient for her

>>531723289
That’s what gets me. It’s like, this is Metroid on a timeline budget, sure, but it’s still a good effort.

What’s been the development time on this? A year?
Like imagine Renegades is some sort of Shadow of Mordor bounty hunting system At this level of quality.

I’ll wager more, contest mode *is* gonna be 200 and they won’t say shit til midway through when people get fucked who are underleveled, just like when people went insane over Zoetic and Bungie ninja edited known issues and didn’t make any announcements as the contest was continuing. There’s no accident why people repeat “aren’t i supposed to be 200?” because there was a line in one of the streams “legend campaign gets you to 200”. Also think back to past years of expansions, legend campaign has you get on the soft cap. If like 4-450 is max 200 being a soft benchmark isn’t that far off. Remember this post when Datto’s team conveniently is the only one who didn’t get d/c’d

Worst part is that moronic fucking change they had where the more of a jump in power to upgrade a weapon the more the costs so if you found something truly special early on it could be a total shit mess to get it to max

The reviews and opinions online are very unfair on Edge of Fate. I’m worried Bungie are going to try to appease people whining for nothing, and lose out on the strong points that could be iterated on with expansions like this.

>Materspark is really gay I just want to sprint and jump
If that becomes the consensus, real or not, we’ll lose out on ideas like that in the future due to player sentiment.

I know it’s been parroted ad nauseam but right down to it being summer, it all feels like Diablo 4 2 years back. Everyone caught on how the grind to 100 would be ridiculous, there’s no reason to try to fart around in lvl 70 boss fights that call for mats because any gear there will be forgettable in the real end game, this is just nonsense to pad shit in the dumbest way possible. The fact I can go watch vods of streamers and see that they were only going up like 10-12 power level per hour and that was this most efficient grind setup that Bungie got pissy about really says it all.

>>531729569
What do you want man? Just to run around and double jump for another 10 years?

Maybe you don’t want jet pack, just double jump. Or double jump is too much, just one jump.
Sprinting is too much too, Halo didn’t have that so get rid of it.

>>531728618
Anybody(she/he) defending this grind should be hanged by their balls, this game trying to pull this crap when Destiny even when it had a very busy schedule of shit to run and attribute to level never had things take this physically long to clear to soft, power,pinnacle cap. And this is supposed to be the year that’s perfect for jumping back in, like I’m a complete overachieving psycho and I tapped out

Yes D3 will get rushed out when marathon flops

Wait, so Ikora is the new Vanguard commander?
I knew Zavala was going to be sidelined since Lance died and his ghost killed in TFS but seriously?
I miss the days of early d2 when Ikora was nonexistent in the story for years.
I don’t like this character, all the way from 2014 to now.

>>531734627
This is D3.
>gear reset
>new gameplay systems
>new raid mechanics

Realise that if D3 had been released, exactly what everyone clamours for, it would have been the same reaction EoF is getting now, and, the same D2 got back when people were crying about bringing their D1 progression over.

>>531729642
I would not be surprised if the numbers go slightly up the next couple of days, since its will be the first weekend after launch. May even break 100k for a bit. But it will be a rather steep decline after that.

>>531734627
>>>531733190
>Yes D3 will get rushed out when marathon flops
No it wont. Once Marathon flops/gets abandoned, Bungie will be gone. Sony looks at the current numbers and realizes that the franchise is done, a D3 would be too expensive, take too long, and would have too little upside. The only people still around are the people are brain broken by the game; notice that while this expansion was supposed to be all about new players, there is no real marketing to new players, or any players for that matter.

>"DUDE THIS IS DESTINY 3"
Okay but what about all the improvements that can only be made in a real Destiny 3?
>"NOOOO THEY CAN'T DO THAT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE"

All anti-D3 posters should be executed. We need a new game in 2020 or this year at the very latest. Edge of Fate is proof of that.

>>531734969

>>531735590
>improvements

Look at how well established players take to actual improvements.
They want new graphics, that’s all. The feeling of a new game but none of the change.

Long term players for ALL games are like this. You can’t take things away or change things because they get too hung up on stuff. I’ve seen people play literal broken games for years, then when it changes for the better they quit.
There’s nothing rational in the majority opinion of an MMO.

>>531736004
How so?

>>531734821
It seems like it's effectively Saint. There's VO for shit like solo ops from him, Ana, and Devrim, and they define the current state as Ikora "babysitting" things on Kepler, Zavala "recovering", and Crow already being spread too thin. The gay robot was the original commander, so he's coordinating efforts to keep smaller threats contained.

>>531729642
Still better than Milds

the destiny franchise is probably dead but i think there's still a market for some kind of big online shooter to take its place.
people like warframe and tfd and they fucking suck.
people fucking love helldivers and there's barely anything to that game.
not to mention the classic pvp multiplayer shooter/arena shooter/br which will seemingly always be popular in some form.

Pretty much. Datto is not competent at solving things (as a content creator, he is a slave to D2, which shows his complete inability to make sound decisions, let alone solve anything). He takes what other people have already figured out and implements it. And the only reason he can do that is because its his literal job, not because he is good at it. Very few of the dedicated D2 content creator class have any actual talent for the game, its just a product of ceaseless exposure to the game, they hit their relatively low skill ceiling very early.

>>531736779

Sometimes I wonder if Bungie is really trying to slip stuff past us or if they really don't know what their own patches are going to do. Once the patch is out they test numbers and tell us "uh oops we forgot to tell you earlier" because they didn't know what the numbers were going to be.

D3 would come without the extra baggage of a decade of code being spun together. Destiny is one complete game from beginning to end, all content available. D2 currently has less activities, locations, pvp maps, etc. than it dod before sunsetting. Yet all of those removed bits and pieces are still in the D2 software, and cause issues constantly. Since they introduced the seasonal model, each season had a different activity or patrol zone events. These are all gone. 24+ seasons of activities no longer playable, but still takong up space on your hard-drive. If D3 was launched as a new game, starting at EoF and Renegads, total loot reset, it would be a better game thanwhat we have now, because it wouldn't be caught up with ghosts in the machine constantly.

I know Warframe is a different day altogether but historically it always draws a large amount of twitch viewership, and since D2 has a lot of overlap with the WF fanbase I'm feeling the streamers are gonna get cucked out of viewers during the race. Gonna be good.

Uhh remind me which game has a literal tranny on all their live streams?

So wait D2 streamers ask for more grind then bitch when Bungie moves to maintain the mammoth grind they just bolted onto the game like three days ago?

So am I getting this right that D2 pros and streamers want the appearance of an insurmountable grind but the reality of cheap bugs and exploits that remove it entirely. They want that but not actual systems in the game that mitigate excessive grinding and allow actual player agency like crafting?

So what they really want is to just widen the gap between nolifers and casuals to the extent that even more people leave this broken ass game. This is so fucking stupid on so many levels.


So so so so so stupid.

What Destiny streamers claim to want is more grind. What they actually want is fune new content to play over and over. Grinding old content is boring and doesn't get any views.

>>531742637
The main criticism of this grind is that we're doing old activities and not new ones.

Exactly. They want it to be grindy as fuck, but they also want to be able to speedrun the grind.
They don't want it to be grinding for THEM. They want it to be grindy for everyone else, so they can then do carry streams and make content out of the grind. But for THEMSELVES, they want to be able to just no life the game for 2 days and get everything.

The problem these dummies miss is the design of physical scale. Depending on game and circumstance people can agree at different points of what's a "fair" assessment of how long it'd take to get to the endgame, but here things got intentionally stretched to massive extremes that there just is no real good way of doing it in a reasonable capacity. No-lifeing at min/max efficiency for shit gains obviously feels and plays bad, and it's just going to alienate more people. Might as well called this lets save Datto's house, cause you're going to get all these bystander rats living through retards like that who'll parrot and say "it's fine".

More grind, shittier gear of which pinnacle levels is no-life tier to attain, less rewards and more timegate and fomo
Meanwhile there's zero content aside from the subpar campaign and people already smelled their intentions with greying out the director and not adding old content to the portal such as raids and dungeons

>>531761137
This means that current bright dust gains will be nerfed whenever they implement whatever the fuck this is btw :3 I just love bungie so muuuuuuch UwU

>>531760493
Western games used to have conventionally attractive female characters but even that was too problematic, so they made them all uglier and more "realistic".

Pic related is Kait in Gears of War 4 then 5, clearly changed to be less pretty and more masculine.

>>531761473
It's baffling how they thought it could have gone any other way than it did. Did they think we'd accept it quietly?
Really, Bungie should take the obvious step toward fixing the "Fun Police" problem: stop policing fun. Let crazy shit ride. The game doesn't have the numbers to sustain meaningful balance.
Sure it might damage the precious integrity of the raid (lol), but all the "OMG ITS BROKEN" clips would be free positive publicity.

>>531762153
The Craftening was one of the biggest events in Destiny, and possibly one of the biggest in live service gaming history. Because Bungie was just like "oh shit everything's broken. Welp, have fun for a few weeks ;)"
Sure, they've always been more willing to police fun than not, but where the fuck did that Bungie go? Would this have been left alone if the raid race wasn't this weekend? Are they just that desperate for long-term engagement metrics?

>>531764409
If they want to Thousand Cuts it, every single mission should give you +1 Power. All of them.

>>531764908
>They should have made a D3
Here is the problem with wishing for a D3; it would have been at least the same player experience as D2, probably worse. Because if they did a D3, they would only change things based on what they learned about dealing with D2, not the players. The player experience is based on all the train station crap, and they have no reason to change that in their mind. Rather, D3 would have a new engine and would facilitate easier content creation and maintenance for the developers. Wishing for D3 goes to the core of why D2 players are so fucking pathetic: its all based on hope, a hope that is completely fanciful and unjustified.

Thanks for outing yourself as a shitter

>>531764890
It’s incredibly how they couldn’t even do this right, and naturally the smoke screen of content retards just covers so much where they themselves won’t ever see the disparity and concede how you’re looking at two extremes of what being efficient and what not doing that looks like and just how so much at a disadvantage you are at specifically for how certain things are curated. The embarrassing thing is that it never was this bad. I play with a very diverse group, even when we had the casual shitter dad who’s just vibing for hangs, they eventually rounded off GM ready even if they weren’t going hyper insane on normalizing gear, order of loot drops etc. Now? Those guys are beyond fucked, especially when regardless of fire team power if your unique account doesn’t have access to higher difficulties, you won’t be rewarded for your troubles of being in higher shit with others which is moron shit. I just don’t get why Bungie was so obsessed with making the grind now this super long thing

>>531762846
Anon, the Craftening was allowed to continue because Bingle is creatively bankrupt and they were using it to test out and get ideas for new weapon archetypes.

Consider:
>Area Denial frames are when people put shotgun intrinsic on a wave frame
>Burst HC frames are when people put shotgun intrinsic on a handcannon
>Rocket pistols and rocket pulses are when people put rocket launcher intrinsic on sidearms and pulses
>Lodestar is when people put pulse intrinsic on a trace rifle
>Third Iteration is literally the second coming of Shotgun Ammit

Was Joe Blackburn the best director we’ve had on D2?

>>531767339
Bungie is willing to do literally anything but make a destiny 3

>>531768549
The new director, Tyson Green aka Tyson Grind, absolutely loves grinding, hates crafting, etc. That's why the game pivoted so hard in this direction. There's also the need to be different from the previous director.

100k? Steam Charts? Concurrent Players? Where? Players? Where are they?? Bungie???

If the game can't hit 100k this weekend then it is 100% fucked

>>531769617
It's not, raid weekends never reach launch days because most players don't raid.

>>531769617
It's not going above 92,000

>>531761473
what happened to grapple?

>>531770179
People were expediting the grinding so obviously it was top priority to stop that instead of fixing the tons of bugs

>>531766034
Oh those guys are basically free target practice to Tranno and co “they were never going to grind the end game crazy hard, so what does it matter”, which of course is just a stroke of ego because lo behold even being efficient in the grind is still a colossal pain in the ass for people who even enjoy playing the game. Now sure not everyone goes balls crazy but moments like running raids, having a powerful build in harder content, getting rewarded for doing more demanding shit,that’s the gateway stuff that has people getting the itch scratched and wanting to see more, to put that off so severely and expect anyone at this point to strap on the feed bag and just put up with this shit being longer is ridiculous and it obviously just pushes more people away. Diablo 4 had this exact same issue

They are going to fix the big bugs and revert all the retarded changes after the raid release. Just be patient.

>texted my Destiny enjoying friend that I hoped he was enjoying the new expansion
>still havent gotten a reply
Oh no...how bad is it?

>>531769617
It hit something like 790k on the first day on all platforms, but that's basically half of the TFS launch day. Destiny has always been a console first game, and while a lot of people quit after TFS, PC def was hit the hardest.

I actually got TFS for $3, now I can finally see the end of the saga. Finished 3 missions, in terms of visuals pale hear btfos kepler hard, it's not even funny.

Lol, BDF failed this one. Some 'people' at reddit insisted that the BBC gloom filter slapped over the Director is either 'a you problem, nothing different on my side', or 'not significant, you still can use the Director if you want to'. Bungie have just confirmed that they desaturated the Director screen to make it less appealing visually for players so that they use the newer Portal menu. I'I just don't have any words for this.

>>531770905
It feels very catered to new players but they forgot this is still the game everyone knows as "that really expensive game that takes away the content you paid for"

>worst technical shape the game has been in for years
>worst new location
>no one likes the portal
>no one likes grinding for temporary light
>no one likes Matterspark or mattermorph

Its very, very funny seeing people acting nostalgic for Lightfall.

Who’s hoping the raid is filled with matterspark just to watch the seething?

>>531772810
the only good parts of lightfall was getting strand and the calus boss fight. And even with that calus deserved to be the final boss of the raid

>>531773551
praying for it, anyone who actually bought edge of flop deserves it

>>531771920
By design. All these old heads are taking their bail outs, even if you wanna use Chris Barrett’s law suit compensation figures thrown around, my guess is a lot of these fuckers could be privy to a bunch of cash. Think for a second that this was all calculated in its design AND marathon was supposed to ship as DLC part 2 was starting. The entire thing was a smash and grab

>>531771831
>world tap to support exploration of the game world
tldr:play the portal if you want loot that isnt 100% trash

>>531773551
100% it's going to be the easiest raid ever I'm taking nearly lethal amounts of hopium that the raid will either have a new faction to fight or reveal a new faction to fight. Because holy fuck precursor vex and moldy fallen aren't what I want to be fighting when we go to a place outside of space time. I said before this expansion came out that we need to guys to fight if we're leaving sol or it's going to be lame as hell and were barely in the same dimension let alone a location outside of sol.

If you allow me to schizopost it’s all part of the plan when we have further strife and divisions in society. Get people addicted to such coomer brain unrealistic bogged humans have it as this signaler of beauty but it acts more as a wealth flex, you get people unable to even recognize what’s human anymore and it just shoved everyone in pits of dysphoria searching something that’ll never be satisfied. Why the hell do you think they’ve preyed so hard on spectrum people with hormone stuff, satisfy big med and Pharma to get people in a vicious cycle where nothing is wrong with them but their so trapped by this chase of absurd standards of visual looks that it drives them insane.gaming is just gambling opiates for young impressionable people so you crank everyone into these creepy skinsuit anime to real life figures and it just rots their brain. Now I will take my meds

>>531776986

>>531771831
Fixed it for em heres my concept art for the portal.
Just make a big portal that moves around in a cool and obvious manner so people go "cool ill click that" which sucks us into a portal space where you click on asteroids to launch activities.

So a true successor to the world screen.

>>531771831
>instead of having the portal replace the blue/red/green minigames at the top of the director we greyed it out so peoples zoomer brains wouldnt engage with it

>>531776986
No. Keep your old shit. The new shit sucks.

>>531754858
As much as I loved this fight, I feel like it started a bad trend of having most boss arenas being completely open and circular rooms with no cover. If you play with others its not as terrible, but if you mainly play solo it sucked.

>>531774934

The old shit is actually better than the new shit none of the new gear drops sith higher stat totals. The only real change is res/health is dogshit and the mobility/grenade gear is good.

Nope, they're just going to say it's all working at intended and use that person's numbers.
>"We said XYZ was nerfed by 15% but what we actually meant was 78% our bad teehee"
Bungie doesn't admit their mistakes and blatant shit coding, they just tell us it was always what they meant and the original blog post was wrong.

>>531783836
Tennocon is one of the biggest video game event. It's perhaps THE reference for Con, at least for indie companies. I remember Path of Exile, when they wanted to do their first Con (Exilecon), Rebb (space mommy) from Warframe helped them a lot.

And it's really a pure comfy kino community moment for Warframe, bungie should really copy DE.

I miss those days of d2 where it was actually fun

>>531785424
Didn't that start off as Gothalion's thing, and then Bungie told him to hand it over under threat of a lawsuit?

>>531771831
imo they half assed the implementation of the portal to where it pleases neither the casuals it was made for or the hardcore audience that has convinced themselves the director was good
they shot themselves in the foot when they decided to come up with the self-inflicted requirement that all portal activities must support the new difficulty tiers and customization
what they should have done is just shove all the activities into each of the categories and removed the ritual nodes entirely (why are they listed as destinations when they aren't? they're just playlists)

can someone tldr the edge of fate story? spoilers and all?

SHE FUCKING WON

>>531787413
the only real spoiler tier things were the Nine were allegedly manipulating things behind the scenes in many of Earth historic instances (JFK, the Fall, etc.) and that Ikora's first life was as some sort of computer science person in a research org in the 1950s, but she was killed when the Nine threw a train at her. There. Thats all you need to know. Oh, III (the Nine from Earth) was dead, brought back to life briefly to tell us to bind the nine, and then promptly killed again by Maya.

*kills myself*

Same bro

>>531788060
The silly thing is that there's even dialogue that acknowledges "Guardians make their own fate" and says that it's only the case because the Nine made that happen because you're still bound by fate and will inevitably help them achieve their goals. Meanwhile, Chicago Ikora leaving to pick up her daughter before they could call her on a payphone to recruit her was outside of their control. What a fucking mess.

Stalker dad clears all of these

thats a good Grineer

>>531787819
huh weird, wouldnt have thought theyd bring real world history into the game, doesnt really fit the scifi theme of destiny imo
thanks

good corpus too

>>531787819
Why would the nine care about JFK

104k by the time I was able to post this.

>>531789259
because the Nine foresaw that if he would have lived, the human Golden Age would have been strong enough to repel the Witness the first time and the Fall would not have occurred.

>>531788060
It could have been an interesting stuff like the Nine was responsible for awakening the self-awareness and world-awareness of a group of primates, the first link in the human lineage or responsible for the creation of the Moon, whose perfect size makes it possible to observe total solar eclipses. But no, the Nine are just right wing terrorists.

>>531788553
ZAMN! Warlocks look like THAT?????

I’ve seen so few positive posts. Everyone is so negative. I just wanted to say I’m having a lot of fun. Anyone with me?

>>531776986
Unless you were rocking 55 armor pieces pre-EoF, all of your 2.0 armor is going to be better than literally any 3.0 armor piece you find until you're farming T3/T4 loot minimum. If you were a hardcore grinder that played endgame and were running 3~4x100 setups pre-EoF, then you aren't getting anything that's a real upgrade until at least T4, if not T5.
2.0 armor pieces aren't hindered by the low stat ceiling and archetype bullshit. You do miss out on the set bonuses, but nobody's found any practical reason to dump your stats for those yet, and I don't think anybody will unless a hyper-specific cheese is found.

>>531790673
not JFK per se, it happened a couple hundred years after his death, but the domino effect of whatever decision he would have made would have resulted in a stronger humanity in the Golden Age. It pure leftist wank, what you expect out of Bungie, a Seattle based hellhole.

Why would I buy EoF if I can do this on shitframe for free

>>531791360
Wait, weren't there already Guardians before the Collapse? I thought that the Traveler, some time after her arrival and while she was busy terraforming the solar system, had almost immediately created Guardians to protect her.

>>531790964
Honestly? Yes. If you know anything about the shot you would know he should have genuinely died from it but somehow it was like what? 2 centimeters off or something like that? Its crazy

There's a fuckton of games that don't charge me to turn off my brain and grind. They have cuter girls too, usually.
What the fuck is Bungie's problem?

>>531791686
nah the ghosts were made in the travelers "dying" breath before going into indefinite stasis

>>531791686
No, the Ghosts were relased as the last act of the Traveler before going dormat from its injuries in in the Fall and its subsequent act to repel the Pyramids, ending the attack.

>>531791514
They needed to find a way for the Witness to penetrate the Traveler. I thought the Veil was a good concept, between Darkness and Light, between Life and Death. The only problem was that the background to this new element hadn't really been explored before.

>>531791289
More or less, like these motherfuckers will go and say how Bungie cooked and how much better it is the build up to the end game “means something” when literally nothing is added and they themselves are lobotomized lapping old content at such trash gains and that’s doing it the most efficient way. They’re gonna pretend like everything’s saved because there will always be levels to grind if you play more casual, like somebody who needs convincing to get into the end game is gonna love hearing they need to run busy work with no purpose and then if they do get to the end, time gates on Tier 5 shit, like this is such scumbag design.

How much do you want to bet that "The Darkness" not being purely evil is based on left-wing ideology. The writers might not even consciously realize it, but no Cali dev is going to have an evil force be "dark" and a good one be "light" after 2015. I might sound like a schizo chud but I bet it's at least partly true.

>>531791176
>JFK
>leftist wank

>>531791608
They're prepping the fanbase for the gacha experience.

>>531792567
>How much do you want to bet that "The Darkness" not being purely evil is based on left-wing ideology.
It never was, at least from the lore we had about it (the Book of Sorrows). However, its still left wing, the Winnower being about testing, reality, the survival of the fittest, while the Gardener is about complexity and diversity. They made it more obvious when the Witness was all about putting things in stasis to prevent negative outcomes (basically a conservative). None of it could be considered to be morally evil really, unless you have the twisted mind of a leftist.

>>531792567
No, I'm fighting the /pol/ brainrot here. You aren't allowed to have this one.
"Dark isn't always good and Light isn't always bad" has been a narrative concept throughout history, and even modern storytelling that is blatantly untainted by forced political overcorrection has used it as a theme.
Are you really going to come into this fucking thread and tell me that Nomura is woke because in 2004 he wrote a story where a kid using powers of Darkness wasn't evil while using those powers? Fuck right the hell off back to /pol/ you election tourist.

>567
You can stay but I need you to know that you're a faggot.

>>531792735
thats what makes it so pathetic, its leftist wank because he was democrat, not because he was actually leftist (he was not). So its more political than ideological, but with most of them, its one and the same.

>>531792567
“Something that looks bad isn't necessarily bad”, “appearances are deceiving”, “the dose makes the poison” are classic concepts, whether IRL or in artistic works.

That soulframe cosplay is absolutely ghoulish, Terrance

>>531793078
>"Dark isn't always good and Light isn't always bad"
I got this backwards, but you're still a massive faggot.

>>531793078
>tell me that Nomura is woke
he was not saying that, because woke and left wing ideology are not the same. But the characteristics they assigned to the Darkness and the Light (through the Winnoer, Gardener, and Witness as >>531793074 points out, definitely have their basis in the political left, especially the Gardener and Witness.

>>531793836

>because woke and left wing ideology are not the same.

they are though, left wing ideology gave us woke nimbus and xir fart fetish subclass

>>531793836
And that's fine, but saying "Darkness being not purely evil is based on left-wing ideology" is patently false and I won't take it lying down.
This is my autistic hill to die on, dammit. Find your own.

>>531793424
haha, self own, massive faggot. The Witness is literally presented as a conservative (lets freeze everything in place to prevent bad things from happening), the oppostite of a progressive.

>>531792549
Do they all have good asses?

As I predicted, they're starting to backtrack on everything they've introduced without the community's support.

>>531794003
They're not going to backtrack everything. They're still refusing to address the core problem of "The grind takes 90~150 hours now".
These are all smokescreen concessions. I'd even go as far as to say they're plants, but that might be giving them a bit too much credit.

>>531793964
no, woke did, not left wing ideology. They are not the same, though people often hold both views at the same time.

>>531794003
OMG GUYS BUNGIE IS LISTENING THEY REALLY CARE ABOUT US

>>531793997
sadly, no, none of them had good asses. None were really that type of cosplayer. Steam peaked at about 109k though, so far. Concert it about to start (25 minut

>>531794349
Damnit

>>531788617
>Chicago Ikora leaving to pick up her daughter before they could call her on a payphone to recruit her was outside of their control
The point was that the Nine can rearrange heaven and earth to set up the perfect circumstance for you to make the choice THEY want you to make, and if you don't make the choice they want, they throw a train at you.

It's still better than the official canon backstory of our Guardian - we were killed by a random micrometeorite, sent by the Nine, that pierced and shattered our skull. We weren't heroic either.

>>531793078
>No, I'm fighting the /pol/ brainrot here.

>>531794003
I love these responses where Bungie try to be fucking martyrs over a player base of new people who are simultaneously confused by the simplest things but the portal and specifics on what actually gets your shit up to snuff isn’t so clear and about as same as describing a mile run or a walk around the block

>>531794176

Were we just struck on the freeway in a traffic jam?

why are all the set bonuses so lukewarm? seems really poo, they basically do something your build already does

>>531794416
lol, so gay

>>531793284
I think you're just schizophrenic and assume everything is a political attack.

>>531794408
I don't like that we now have at least two guardians that subvert the decade-long lore of "The Traveler picks people that died heroically or that deserve a second chance to be heroic". It makes it seem like the Nine aren't manipulators, but the rules themselves. It completely strips the Traveler of any agency and just makes it into a giant Light Vending Machine. It cheapens the last decade that they're trying to bundle as a single arc (even though everyone knows it's at best a game of Random Bullshit Go). Were we just protecting a vending machine from a guy mad it ate his quarter without giving him the drink he wanted?

>>531792567
>I might sound like a schizo chud
you sound like a lorelet and a mutt
your post is so stupid that i can't tell if it's a joke or if you're just that retarded

>>531795209
No, I am smart enough to see the political motivations placed in game narratives by unabashedly politically motivated game developers. Its not hard as long as you dont deliberately stick you head in the sand or possess subnormal intelligence. Take your pick.

>>531794163
I just don’t like people overusing the “the entire DLC is 6 months” you don’t have to get there in week 1, yet downplaying the efforts of people who are doing just that and the physical length of time in store to make any meaningful progress

It does not do that. The Nine have the ability to perceive the future (I suspect that ability is limited to the solar system, though I could be wrong). They saw who the Traveler would chose, and enabled that choice. What a Guardian was in its prior life does not matter, at least in the lore so far. For all we know the Traveler was aware of the Nines actions somewhat, perhaps the Ghost can detect temporal manipulations withour expressing it or knowing it. There has been no lore established AFAIK that shows WHY a Ghost picks a Guardian, only that they just "know". The closest we got to that was Ghost telling us why he picked us in TFS, and it was little more than he just knew. It has nothing to do with how the person died.

I wonder how much the player count will drop starting tuesday

mfw ghaul could have become a guardian if he just listened to bill nye and ACK-ed himself

Because the Nine are extremely alien they speak weird and uncannily. It's not LITERALLY attracted to Lodi.

and thier is a bit of paradox in that, which is why you should not write time travel stories unless you are really good at it (which Bungie is not).

are there any content creators for destiny that are like DSP where they will desperately beg for money every stream and offer stupid shit like "oh ill shave my beard if we hit the tip goal" or "I will eat a childrens meal from mcdonalds if we reach the goal" and other stupid shit like that?

Calm down everyone, I'm not even a schizo right-wing nutjob who thinks (((they))) are out to get us. I just think Darkness was vague generic evil in Destiny for so long that it was pretty clearly the intent at the start. When they actually had to figure out what it is, the probably though Darkness=evil is cliche, and some of that probably comes from not wanting to be racist.

Name one piece of new sci-fi or fictional media where "Dark" is evil in the past decade.

On top of that it starts to cut way too into the stuff sorta fleshed in Season of Drifter of the more curious nature of the Nine. They act like aliens trying to get our bullshit, but to now give them just a hair bit too much awareness, understanding and like deliberate control power is a bit corny. It’s like pick a lane. They did this bullshit a lot of times in this series, Neomuna most advance place, weirdly inefficient and absurd concepts of defense force despite a history of Vex trying to fuck with things.

well, not really, because the fact they are playing Destiny at all is sufficiently stupid to attract an audience, though not for the good of the streamer. Most of Datto's audience is there to mock him.

cross lowkey does that but only the goals part and only does it before an expansion drops

Feel like you guys just make up content creators and then I find out there’s a whole environment of these characters
