>>538740392The Tassi Stratagem on how to fix D2:Double all Portal loot. I don’t care how extreme that sounds. Do it. And make sure it’s weighted toward the new stuff. (Do not just put it in Reclaim because Reclaim is so bad people don’t want to play at all).Don’t just fix power drops, increase them. Currently they’re mostly one less power than they should be. Don’t put it back to normal. Increase it to one more than it was going to be before if you must leave this new climb in place.Make all positive modifiers in the Portal free so you actually want to use them, rather than be penalized for them.Cut the +10/+20 enemy power gains from negative modifiers in half to +5/+10 so people aren’t showing up to try and farm 30 to 50+ under power.Maybe don’t auto increase every Tier drop, but drastically increase the rate of Primes past whatever it is now for now just power gains, but actually good higher tier drops.Double raid loot. Double whatever dungeon loot there’s going to be.Take at least two of the five Eververse armor sets this season and make them earnable somewhere, especially the Taken one. Unhappy, actively quitting players do not buy Eververse armor.Thoughts?
>>538740392Do they have any emergency levers left? The Final Shape was supposed to be it, but it didn’t save them at all. And even with Pete Parsons gone the game won’t improve even with Sony tardwrangling Bungie because they would all rather work on Marathon over the thing that is currently making them money.
>>538741048my solution is even simpler: delete the portal
>>538741048they'd never be so generous
we need more furry content in Destiny.
So is Estella good? She seems fun but i want to know if she can actually do numbers.
>>538741121Either that, or integrate it into the director. As it stands now, it's soulless and boring. Pathfinder was great, bring them back, and then put kepler and the sterilelands into a public patrol instance
>>538741553>furry beheading quest>furry torture raid>furry holocaust public eventThe possibilities are endless.
>>538741210These retards decided that after 400 power random drops must be -10 of your current power or 300 on Kepler, while bonus drops for activity completions cap out at 400 because fuck you. The actual reward will be one item with a +2 relative to my current power, and I should pray for it to drop into the slot I need instead of getting a 405 heavy gun when I already have one. A fucking Chinese gacha showers me with all kinds of loot all of which will be useful if I want to play more than one character
>>538741687>anthro bunny slightly chubby female warlock handholding>anthro cat fit tomgirl hunter frothing>anthro wolf futa Titan brutal raping by themis more what I had in mind
>xe finally says something bad about Destiny 2>after it's far too late
>>538741687I would make the torture the public event and the holocaust the raid but yeah, good ideas.
>>538741048they don't care to improve thingsit being bad is the pointthey do not want to work on destiny, they are actively sabotaging it so that sony collapses the studio sooner and they all get moved to other projects
>>538741553i have been asking for playable hive and fallen characters in rising every survey
>>538740392doom god tassi strikes again

>Difficulty needs to be a choice not a requirement.
T-The TWID will be out soon... not only will it be out on time b-but im willing to bet theyre going to show a road map for the future! o-or maybe some... um... buffs or something.... j-just positive changes in general.... its going to be good...
>>538742631Sorry, we're still investigating our investigators.
>>538741048The real play is to fully revert the game to ROTN, stop fucking touching things until you have a proper workforce, QA, and leadership strategy off the ground. Just fuck off for like a year and leave us alone with a functional version of the game.
>>538742785the best thing for the game's longterm health would be to revert the gamestate to season of arrivals and just leave it theredo not touch it again until there is a completely new studio formed to work on the game, such as with rising
>>538742631Hopesissy it's okay to let go. You have to let go eventually. Bungie's failings aren't your fault.
Inquiry: Are stasis ultimates "bad" given that they're not damage cannons or squad buffs?
>ftw vault is full.>Going to have to delete all my old Artifice armor to make space.It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.
>>538743136Hunter is just free area denial/add clearTitan shits out damage if using SynthoceptsWarlock is the only one that is kinda eh in PvE, almost broken in PvP.
Investigation?
>>538743483Don't do it anonIf they walk back features hear you'll be fucked
"Major update" released 2 days ago btw
>>538742961I liked Arrivals and the original game content, but Light 3.0, crafting, enhancing, and all the annual expansions since 2020 have been better than the game was before that. Resetting us to Episode: Heresy and RotN would be much better. They should release a "Legacy" server though, for people to enjoy all the shit that got deleted.
Guys can you please stop discussing your irrelevant shambling corpse of a game? We're trying to discuss Destiny Rising here.
>We are seeing feedback from PvP players that Graviton Spike and spreadshot Hand Cannons still feel too oppressive to play against. >We are currently exploring additional tuning changes to bring them down in PvP while trying to avoid knock on effects in PvE. We'll share more details once we have these tested and locked for a future update.https://x.com/Destiny2Team/status/1966162752654696456The GAME is SAVED
>>538743101...I just want the game to be good..... I-I have to hope for the future...... otherwise there will be nothing but doom...
HOLY FUCK OFF NING FEI I'M TRYING TO GET THE OTHER RISING LIGHTS
Luke was right, without season content, the game is just bad. I want my Fallen/Cabal/Awoken seasons back
>>538741561Yes, she can use the Gallows machine gun which is the highest DPS weapon in the entire game. She's a direct upgrade to Kabr.
>>538744181you literally cant balance the shotgun HCs in PvP without completely gutting their damage and range, as they are just infinite ammo shotguns in a gamemode with limited actual shotgun ammo.
>>538742219>only NOW will his dickriding stream chat finally admit and agree with what all of us have been saying for five years
>>538742219datto hits them pretty hard. good to see that
Opinions on Estela? Her summoning-based gameplay seems interesting though I'm not a fan of her weapon choices.
FUCK decalsFUCK bright pigment
>Get mogged by Chinese gacha devs who have never worked on the IP before>Get savagely roasted by your own revolting and collapsing community>Get nuked by RandyHow much more humiliating can this possibly get?
>>538744686nobody gives a fuck about your mobile game kek
>>538744797They will unironically fix Ash&Iron next week, they need a big win before Destiny starwars
You'll keep playing anyways.
Post more Jolder
>>538744631>only nowthese parasites only speak up when their source of income is dwindling.
>>538744686I think her weapon choices are fine. Better than Umeko’s.
>>538745349Next week? With Bungie's work ethic, probably next month.
Is this game worth diving into again? Last I played was the light powers expansion. Or should I say I just buy borderlands 4 for my looty shooty this time.
>>538744189Well as a resident doomfag I'll tell you this: I used to be a hopefag!I used to have hope that the game would just keep getting better. That Bungie would keep the good systems they have an improve upon them... But they didn't. They threw away good shit and kept reinventing the wheel and tripping at the finish line time and time again, and eventually I learned about Bungie's struggles when developing Halo. It then became clear to me that what's happening now— the fumbles, the hope and doom cycle— will continue to happen. And I, with my passion for the game crushed under the weight of realization, began to jaded. Then it was just comedic. And now I want them to fail. Because they never learn. Because they wasted my time. Because they deserve it. Because the game I loved is gone— just a shell of its former self. I see it. I know you do too. Join us. Accept Destiny for what it is— wasted potential.
>>538746009You could play an actual good game.
>>538746009lol no
>>538746009no
>>538745349it doesnt matter because the event is ass anyway and exotic mission only drops in a month.nvm all the bs changes that launched together with EOS
hope you guys have a blast farming 1 piece of loot after a 30 minute activity. I'll be having fun with my fellow vault hunters
>>538746009If you want more Destiny, a fucking Chinese gacha shits and pisses all over Bungie's ineptitude. If you don't want to mess with a gacha game, play anything else, even Redditlands would unironically be a better choice.
>Lock the ugly unlikable nigger to only use explosive one round weapons on both slots.>Her abilities SHOULD in theory work great with those weapons but the add density makes it so you could, at max, group 2 to 3 enemies.It's as if the chinks KNEW she sucks so they just made her shit, i don't like the weapon locking on characters though :/
>>538742219He's still throwing out light punches with how he's defending Ash and Iron as "not that bad". He's in way too deep with his connections with Bungie.
Predict today’s TWAB
>>538747143they're not even going to get cross to stop playing borderlands to read that trash
>>538747143>new activity!>we are receiving your feedback>new guns!>please stop leaving>iron banner soon!>Why We Killed Charlie: A Manifesto>fanart and videos!
>>538743883Pretty much this. I wouldn't even mind a gameplay reset to Heresy but with the EoF campaign added (i quite liked it), then work on bringing back EVERYTHING that was deleted over the years. Once that's all done to a satisfactory degree, then they've humbled themselves enough and can work on new content.
>>538747143>we are listening>we are investigating>porotics
>>538747353A full on public apology to everyone and begging them to stick around like the abusive husband Bungie is. Even Datto admitted in his recent video that he would rather play Destiny Rising than touch D2.
Datto needs to crossdress more.for scientific purposes of course
>>538747143>ash and iron has launched>bla bla bla renegades>exotic mission in a month>art,list of known issues /we arelistening
>>538744406Do you think it's sensible to compare characters across different archetypes? I would have been surprised if she did not do more damage than Kabr (who can also use that gun can't he?) but how does she stack up against other offensive characters in regards to her toolkit?
>>538747143>"we're cooking, stay tuned">maybe probably addressing the eververse controversy by handing out free small bright dust packs every week
>>538746025I actually was a hopecuck until Ash and Iron dropped. The update broke me completely and utterly. Doom has taken hold of my soul.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoKluzn07eQThread theme
>start up fireteam mission>pick my difficulty and modifiers>game doesn't even try matchmaking me and just tells me to do reclaim on my ownWhat gives?
>>538748239well at least you realized eventually
>>538748645nobody's playing
>>538748645if the activity lets you choose your modifiers, it has no matchmakingdown to the fireteam finder mines you go
>>538748874So picking modifiers just completely disables matchmaking? That's gay.
this could have been such an easy win but bungie decided to go for the ol nostalgia bait and switch.I cant helpt but to feel drawn to this dumpster fire to see how low they can go before snoy pulls the plug.imagine all the staff that working on maraslop knowing fully well that its going to bomb.
>>538746025I understand what you're saying anon but.... without any hope for the future there is nothing... we will be scattered if this game dies.. there must be a balance in it all.. im sorry but Im not becoming a doomposter. I will continue to stand on the side of hope and take the punches no matter how hard it gets... and one day.. all the hoping and endurance will finally pay off.. you'll see.........
Today I am quirk chungus
today, Destinybros, i am going to be a 12 yr old again in Borderlands 4
>>538748628https://youtu.be/6lqvJ6Slf2o?si=FTTe-gCxdoGQtRde
I’m waiting for dmg in utah
actually i might play bl after all
ash and iron has more content than the new rising season btw
>35 pulls and no EstelaThere go all my lumia leaves. Pain.At least it was free pulls, got two Umekos and 3 Ikoras (ugh).
So you mean to tell me that the only fireteam ops with matchmaking are the random ops playlists?...Why?
>>538748985Yes, if an activity has matchmaking, you'll get a cookie cutter template set of modifiers and a fixed power delta. If you customize the modifiers, it will disable matchmaking.
>>538751202But even if I reset the modifiers to default the game still gives me a giant middle-finger and refuses to put me into matchmaking.
>>538751121The top row of choices also have matchmaking.>Why?Dunno lol
>>538751121The top row of 3 also has matchmaking, but only with preset modifiers. Bungie really wants people to use the FTF
>>538751037You do understand that Umeko and Estella come out of different pulls though right?
Mega TWID soon. You're about to see just how much bungie can cook.
>>538751508>>538751569Not for me. I don't know if it wants me to do all seven legs of this training shit to unlock matchmaking, but it just tells me matchmaking is off for everything except the playlists.
>>538751037I got her on 36 roll and only 1 Umeko. You probably haven't played much because I still have 9000 leaves left.
>>538742219"stuff in personal life", xisters, I'm starting to think the easy bag secured from the comedic variety content as hoped 2 years ago is never going to happen, nor are those "easy 50k views in a week", Datto really thought that they were more marketable, also the cost of parkour lessons got increased and moved into a spa with massage tables instead of the warehouse shed. Hell I am starting to believe Datto might just be lying to us when he kept saying "I got some projects I've been working on", how could this happen?

>vex just invade the wall almost completely uncontestedWas shaxxx, banshee, ikora, zavala, drifter, and Saint all out on lunch?
>>538752452it was nighttime so everyone was honk mimimimi
>>538751891It might be defaulting to training and you have to manually select the matchmade version, but I can post more proof if you want
>>538752007I spent the rest in Gwynn really, dunno what are some of the sustainable Lumia sources other than the expanse and calamity ops.
>>538752531even thought Saint, Ana, and Ikora were on comms, which means they were awake
>>538752692listen fucker, Maya just wanted to have some fun cause she was bored, and the Vanguard deemed it as non-threatening so they were just like, "guardian go do your thing or whatever".end of story, now move on
The chinks should just give their player character AI to Bungie, the bots can sometimes be more competent than even human players, they even do the mechanics.
>>538752576So then shouldn't changing the difficulty from training put the matchmaking back on then?
>>538753325(me)Oh wait, I'm a dumbass and so is bungie. I'm just... not allowed to matchmake until I hit rank 5 guardian.
>>538747143>in the sizzlin' hot summer of 1998, we founded bungie
The whole modifier setup shit was definitely messed up yesterday and tuesday. I had to set things at such a high LL deficit even with the highest score Stakes just to get in that B+ range that could be put over to A and now it's not as extreme? Am 410 for clarity
this TWID will be the shortest one we've gotten yet
>>538753810We're listening. *mic drop*
This TWID is going to be about the Warlock Buddy overhaul shit.They won't mention any of the bugs outside of the bug report section.They won't offer any compensation or condolences or anything more than "we're listening".Player Counts will drop to 4 digits by this time next week.
>>538753732its completely fucked.you have to do -70LL modifier activities to go past 450 or some shit.
We had a Wolf too in Destiny 1 :)
>>538754368sexsexsexsexsexsexaexsexsexsexsexsexsexsexsexsexsex
Umeko is a cool character. I honestly like the character quests so far. If only bungie could have made a game like this way back in 2014, it would have changed everything.
>>538754329Ok so I am getting gaslit by reading the ramblings of retards who think its everybody just not even touching the modifiers and it's the player not the game. Typical. I know in the 300s at every 20 or so levels you get those sharp jumps where you basically have to do a few runs at the +2 reward because the +3 just requires everything on master and its all bogged down and you're too low for GM and at deficit, so you weather the +2s til the delta normalizes or whatever, but this was just absolutely bullshit even to just budge the score bar into B+
So who else here actually uninstalled this week? The Renegades reveal made it clear to me that even if everything about the game mechanics got fixed, they are simply not going to continue to create the kind of stories and content I want, the entire direction is completely wrong now. Then you add on the disaster in every respect that is Ash and Iron and the writing could not be more clearly on the wall. I uninstalled the game and I do not intend to ever play it again.
see you in two weeks after the borderlands break when the raid refresh comes out
>>538754478Outside of the mandatory ones, I’ve only gone through Tan-2. I initially wasn’t going to pull for him since the launch cinematic made him seem a bit too reddit, but his story’s not bad.
>>538754368The lack of furry Fandom in the whole of the Destiny franchise was a big tell on the how the game would be successful.Imagine the alternate timeline where bungie chose anthropomorphic Mammal/Reptile/Bug/Aquatic races instead of human,pastel human and robot.
>>538754478yeah but she lied to my nigga wolf so I hate her
>>538754934we were close to getting Tiger-men in the original draft of D1 but they scrapped it
She has a surprisingly cute voice. Amateur VA but it's cute.
>>538754696I quit with TFS, but the rest of my friends quit as of tuesday. Ass and Unfun being dogshit was bad enough but they were none too with what little integrity the lore and world of Destiny still had being sold off to Disney.
>>538755061The voice itself is cute but the delivery was pretty flat, aside from that single moment where she screams when entering the burning house. It felt amateurish and I guess it's because it is then.
get me the fuck out of here randy
>>538755061Agreed. Really sells the autism.
i-i don't want to bros...
>>538754934MR ADVERTISER GET DOWN
post the borderlands 4 player count
>>538755293Break her back, guardian. Send video proof.
>>538755293You don’t get to choose.
>>538753810>we give up, EoS in a month followed by tyson and dmg being publicly executedI'd coom
>>538755061She has the most fuckable face i have ever seen in a video game.
>>538754934I think a larger part of it is consequence of the times. Obviously weirdos online falling deeper in mainstream by mid 2010s happened and the downward slide of society being more clued into worthless internet shit nobody who has respect for themselves should know about, but yeah Bungie still was the Halo with the buds post 9/11 mt dew, smoking reds, coming home from Afghanistan all fucked up game. There was that vibe that still overhanged into Destiny and Destiny relied heavily on the existence of the wide array of Halo slobs especially the older crowd. Destiny really doing full tilt into fruity came later
>>538754934AIIIIIEEEEEE MUH BLOO BORED
>>538755761dude fucked ng Tyson has been tight-lipped this whole time, its like he's not even there.when the fuck is this game director going to actually direct the game for fucks sake, they fired the wrong people during last year's wave
so far i'm not really sure if i hate the aislop voices that much. at first it was really really bad, and the basic npc voice acting is awful, but the quests are surprisingly serviceable and the named character voices are a lot better. it's really nothing amazing but it goes a long way in a game like destiny that's always lacked that personal touch with the world built around the player. if it means they can keep churning out decent destiny story beats that show you a little bit more pieces of earth at a time then idk, i wouldn't really be opposed to it. i really don't know what it will look like in a year or two from now since this is my first gacha game but if they keep piling on the content then it might end up being pretty good.it's not quite the destiny i expected or wanted but it'll do for now.
The portal needs to be shitcanned or made into a way to just earn a couple of extra pinnacles with old pinnacle system in place. Like if you don’t want to play trials or do the featured raid, go do a couple old missions with modifiers in the portal, and you’ll be good. Or if you’re a no-life that always completes every possible pinnacle, that great, too. Just a couple extra rewards to reward your sweatiness. But the absolute retards at bungie won’t ever consider that. They’re so far up their own asses that they’ll never accept that the system was before just fine
Any of the new guns interesting or am I loading up death stranding
>>538756078Ahem approved content creator Mactics said he was shy, doesn't like speaking in public when he interviewed him
>>538756078is tyson even real? I haven't seen him since pre EoF
>>538756323I strongly believe that Bungie literally just made up this issue in their head where they thought players and new players had a tough time navigating the directory to find activities to do, when in reality Fireteam finder took care of that no problem if people were having trouble.and anyways most of the content for a current release was either at the helm or the new destination, then when you were done you'd just grind vanguard/Gambit/crucible or raids/dungeons/exotic missions if you wanted.the directory by the end of Hersey was fine the way it was, I don't believe that people were having that much of an issue finding things to do
This game fuckin nails the visuals
>>538756323They have too much pride. The portal and all the other bullshit is here to stay
>>538756323Portal as a quickplay/optimized grind system is fine. The problems are>Grind is too long and brutal for players, demanding hours upon hours of runs at increasingly harsh power deltas and increasingly rude restrictions>You can't get power literally anywhere else in the game. If the content you WANT to play isn't in the Portal, go fuck yourself.The other day I had a clanmate try to queue for Gambit, and the population is so low and so focused on the Portal that they were kicked out of queue twice due to queue timeout, before just giving up. And yeah, that's Gambit, but the same shit applies for basically every other niche side activity. People used to queue in for Blind Well or Dares of Eternity just to get some quick alien shootin' done, but now there's no point because those activities basically do nothing. Overthrow is pretty much just new lights and slackers trying to clear TFS content they missed.Shit's completely fucked big time, man.
>>538756576apparently he doesn't like to do interviews and never has
>>538756323Trying to convince Bungie of anything is like trying to argue with a leftist, no matter how much you tell them they're hurting themselves with their retard pride they won't stop and constantly pretend everything's fine and that they know what they're doing.
Any minute now. This TWID is going to knock everyones socks off. I can feel it
>>538757054it's literally trying to argue with one anonare you forgetting all the diversity committees
I miss Joe. His direction decisions weren't always great, but it was clear he loved the game, played it himself when he could, understood what was going on, and actually fucking talked to the community, fessing up when Bungie fucked something up.I'm not sure Tyson has played any game that's not an ARPG in the last 20 years.
>>538756624New players possibly had a hard time with the directory, but that's Bungie's fault because the Red War campaign was the perfect onboarding process for the game, and even with Shadowkeep they got rid of that onboarding process in favor of "All content is end game content". So instead of only new players being unhappy, now everyone is unhappy.
>>538756078Tyson 'Gone Fishin'' Green is there in spirit, I'm sure.
>reclaim>finish area and move on to boss>boss area is right next to current area>I can see the next area from where I'm standing>wow a vex barrier looks like you have to use your ship lol
HERE COMES THE T(K)WAB
do chinese ppl just like cute lesbians or something?
>>538757364the government banned boys love so they decided to focus on yuri more
>>538757454chat is this real
>>538756229My only issue is I wish they’d at least double check the voices more beforehand. There was a cutscene with Wolf giving a small speech to the people of Jiangshi, and in my playthrough it switched to something like a teenage girl’s voice instead of the usual.
She's so fucking pretty bros
>>538757491https://www.the-independent.com/asia/china/gay-erotica-china-danmei-writers-arrested-b2779488.html
>>538757364Cute lesbians and cute twinks. China is the land of beauty, poetry, silk.
>>538757656do chinese women really
>>538757765okay jiang
>>538757816Women the world over yearn to see two cute men kiss
>a mobile game does a better job in 2 weeks at establishing exactly how destructive, evil and deceitful ahamkara can be than bungie did in an entire decadeHow?
if you bought edge of fate you need your head checked. if you bought the bundle you need a bullet
>>538757656Honestly Yuri is acceptable as long as the girl doesn't behave like a dyke, and Estela so far seems pretty feminine, plus her interest literally fucking died.Also has anyone uploaded the zelpachad music? That singing of the dreaming city theme was super kino.
>>538757364Chinese media and really all of Asia has one rule: anything goes if it's pretty.but I think the government is trying to crackdown cause they think it might lead to a decline in population if young people read/watch/play media with yuri/yaoi
>>538757982But… muh lore cards…
>>538757982It used to be fine, then Season of the Wish came and they thought that "There was one good Ahamkara one time a long time ago nobody knew about who's dead now" was a good counter-argument to that idea
>>538758127Don't the chinks WANT to reduce their population? I mean it's true that propaganda can create mental illness but I would expect the opposite from them.
where twab
>>538758317> Don't the chinks WANT to reduce their population?Only if it’s uighurs.
>>538758317>Don't the chinks WANT to reduce their population?Not for decades. Now they have a nice welfare state that needs a constant flow of young people to maintain it as their elders live longer and longer, much like many other countries.
>>538758325here u go >>538753924
>>538758325imagine if they put one out with no mention of the issues
>>538758317That's old news, silly. They removed their one child laws years ago and are now desperately trying to increase birth rates again because their social systems are heading for collapse due to all the old people (like everyone else).
>>538758317there whole economy is labor.if the population outlook is forecasted to decline, that creates major problems for them.they don't have as much of a social/political issue with alt-media moreso than a fear of there whole economy crumbling in the next 10 years
>>538756736Is this rising? God damn.
>>538758325devs are either playing borderlands 4 or hiding under whatever they can.
>>538758860*gyatt
>>538758860It's the character quest for the new girl, Estela, a warlock cursed by ahamkara magic. The whole quest is just one big bad trip with the ahamkara trying to fuck around with you. Its boss fight theme also has Dreaming City motifs embedded in, lol.
Joe. I’m sorry Joe. Please come back Joe. Joe.
>>538758584THE RAPEDTHE FELTED
>>538758198Nah it just doesn't make sense how much they suck ass. Bungie spent all of D1 and half of D2 hyping the fuck out of ahamkara but rising feels like the real payoff. Riven was pretty good, I have no complaints about that but the whole thing was underwhelming since it simply lacked the dialogue and interactions with him, and he ended up being a raid boss that everyone cheeses by default. Idk man china has already shown us 3 and they all serve completely different purposes in the story. It would have been cool if all the ahamkara exotics in D1 and D2 had their own quests with fully fleshed out characters, dialogue and a backstory. Brec being a character that talks to you, the player, instead of just an item is something Bungie would have never done themselves despite the artifacts speaking to the users and forming parasitic relationships with them being an actual thing in the lore.
It’s clear now that Joe was the harbinger of casual fun and hope, fighting off the other streamer worshiper devs like Tyson chicken green.
>>538759360Forgot pic, and this is just in the game. I didn't have to go to bungie's little website to read about this, the game just offers it to you.
bring back Luke Smithbring back Mark Noseworthybring back Joebring back Hippybring back Petebring back that crazy looking Spanish lady that was a lead for Final Shape
:O i got her
>>538759615Don't bring back Hippy; she deserved to get cut.
okay seriously where is it
>>538759745gg, I don't know her so I don't know if she's strong but her color reminds me these dudes (Revenants) in MK11
>>538759745Why does she wear the mask?
>>538760230so you prefer GnomeMG and his 'eard posts?personally, I was okay with reading Hippy's schizo tweets about the rapelist mixed into Destiny community posts
>>538760597It is important to remember that dmg was Hippy's boss at one point.
bring back Robert.he knew how to write seasonal stories.
>>538759193Joe is gone. There is only Tyson and Allison. But there is another, if you so choose. There is one who offers salvation. Randy extends his hand, you need only reach out.
>>538760269Have you never seen an awoken before?
>>538760748Low effort bait, here’s your (you)
>>538760417She needs it to live.
Apologize
perhaps i judged you too harshly, joe
>>538760928I highly doubt Robert would write about the tower just being vexed one night without anyone freaking the fuck out.maybe he'd throw in some zing here and there but at least it was structured
Joe lied to all of us about the strand witch queen connection. He can go fuck himself
hopesissies check
>>538761181They really do not want to bring back SIVA in any form, goddamn.
>>538761331they're now reminiscing about the Beyond Light - Final Shape era.they are broken.
>>538760875In my mind, their colors are brighter and, above all, more luminous (with reflections and sparkles). But I must admit that, apart from Zavala and Mara Sov, I don't hang out with other Awoken very much.
>>538760971How did things get worse than CoO…
>>538740154is it possible to make my exo look like her, or is she a custom model?
>>538760931What would happen if I took her mask off?
>>538756229idgaf if the "collect 10 fallen asscheeks" sidequest npcs are ai generated but the iron bar and sparrow racing announcers should absolutely not be ai
>>538761331I'm here. We need a big win and tonight is the night
>>538761604It would be extremely painful.
>>538761181Siva being dead forever would be absolutely fine if there weren't a dozen other examples of things being contrived back to life/relevance. They brought Cayde back solely to pad TFS sales, for fuck sake. At least give a reason for bringing Taniks back for the fifth time and not Siva.
>>538761601The only thing you can recreate is that thing across the top of her head.
>>538761857that horn thingy okay.thx.
>>538756479
>>538761742And it’s not like there aren’t ways to bring it back. There should still be plenty in the wreckage of Exodus Black, and all of Neomuna was built using it.
>>538761952kek
>>538761181Dmg better not show up to any universities
>>538760971For a company that is terminally addicted to recycling assets, why the fuck did we never see this Vex boss archetype ever again, even after COO was vaulted and new players wouldn’t even know?
>>538761181I'm going to tear dmg asunder
>>538762350please understand
>>538761181>SIVA is deadSo were Cayde, Oryx, Savathun, Mara, Riven, Eramis, Eris, Maya, Saint, Fikrul and The Scorn Barons, Rhulk, Nezarec...
TWAB doko
>>538757537Yeah everyone gets the tranny voice in that cutscene for some reason.
>>538762350lost technology
>>538762469NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THOSE DONT COUNT BECAUSE...THEY JUST DON'T OKAY?!t. dmg
>>538762350Don’t they reuse the general look of it for Quria?
I Have a vagina :)
>>538761181He's right. They're not going to bring SIVA back because it makes no sense. They were kind enough to give us a quasi-SIVA (quicksliver nanites) to keep us happy, because they know we liked SIVA, but that's more than enough. And seeing the reactions, they must regret their gesture of goodwill.You want SIVA, you need to go back to the past, to Rising.
>>538758000I didn't even get any romance vibes between her and the hunter chick anyway. They literally just shook hands.
>>538759615AND ONLY ONE MANNNNN CAN SAVE USSSSSSSSS
>>538759745She has a really big ass.
>>538762752I hate how this is how I find out he got convictedhonk honk
>>538761181Siva is dead.... except when we need to sell cosmetics in eververse :)
>>538762781get back to work dmg
>>538762781That's why people are upset, because its just tied to Lightfall, one of the most poorly received mainline expansions.
>>538761181>SIVA is deadSo is Bungie
Jason Jones will come out of his cave and save Bungie, he won't let his company go down like this
>>538760973He had big shoes to fill, he was no Luke Smith, but did a good job overall.

>>538761331Im gonna be honest... I feel a little sick right now because the TWID hasnt dropped but... i-im sure thats because its going to be a big one.. they probably just got done writing it out and must be double checking everything...
>>538763320>https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/twid_09_11_2025
>>538762350Based on how they avoid certain other things, I'd wager the pattern is "another studio made it".It surprises me that people turn to malice/jealousy of other studios, when the real explanation is probably just that the raw files for the stuff support studios made isn't in Bungie's archives. Based on how they've presented Red War in that preliminary hearing, their archives are either incomplete, incompatible, or outright missing content.Not sure which is funnier, though: Bungie being so incompetent that they don't have the original files for a third of the game's content, or Bungie being so petty that they have to be drug kicking and screaming to recycle content another studio made, and even then they half-ass it.
GUYS I'M GONNA CONSUMER WHORE
>>538763527
>>538763320Hopesisters, we won
nvm apparently this shit just crashes on startup
>>538762781the thing is that quicksilver looks boring as shit compared to siva
>>538763527GAMBIT MENTIONED????
>>538756430Exotic mint slaps. Mini-Tool is back this time with burning ambition- Strand Rocket is kind of a sleeper. Unfall is better than Kindess don't @ me dungeon fags. Drang is still drang. The new Ride Together set bonus fades so fast I thought it had to be bugged. Should be like 6 seconds. 12 seconds if you want to be useful. All the stuff is good even fun. The loot drops are pretty stingy tho and you can't focus for shit let alone craft anything so its just a grind.

>>538766465>dmg has stopped being passive so now we have to beat him into submission before we rape him? fine by me
>>538765269I hope you're lying because "sitting in the backline, weakening key targets, and reposition" is a playstyle i greatly enjoy.
>>538766645She's probably a lot stronger with polaris, which I unfortunately do not have.
>Nerf power climb so that As are +2 (from +3)>Revert it when everyone complains, after claiming it's a bug>Advertise it as a buff, accidentally revealing that the +2 was intentional>Get torn apart on TwitterWhat's the next step in Bungo's master plan?
should I roll for a gwynn copy to get the 60% buff or should I roll for Estela? I have exactly 60 rolls
Based CCP!
>>538766906I generally advocate for horizontal investment (rolling as much different stuff as possible) in gacha. This doesn't seem like the kind of game that rewards vertical investment (going all in on a select few characters) too much, at least in the gacha.Estela's playstyle is a bit more poke-oriented, so play her trial and see how you feel about it. If you like her, pull, since she's pretty strong.
Time for a pizza party, I think.
>>538765721Yeah it was last week's twab when they said, the Power climb from 400 to 500 will be naturally accelerated by the Power cap increasing to 550. Is it that crazy to figure that naturally accelerated makes it seem like the entire system goes on the +2-+3 system of 300-400 and what came prior?
What artifact build is best for Umeko?
>>538767070holy fucking based
>>538758000Yeah i was right, in her very first lorebook Elathi says "From today forward, i'm your mother".
>>538766906I personally only pull until i get a character once if i like it, hoard my rolls after, and then go for dupes of my favorite characters once reruns start.
>Another Rising survey>another chance to tell Netease how much I hate Bungie
the roguelite mode is so fun holy shit, it really makes a lot of weapons and characters shine way more than they do in normal circumstances
>>538769531It's not a Roguelike.
>>538765846I retract my previous statement now that my hype has died down and I read more of the TWAB. The grenade buffs are good but the power grind is still shit. I'm not playing to grind, Bungie. I'm playing to try to have fun. To shoot things and be cool and do fun shit. Also that's not new IB armor, that's fucking reissued armor.

>>538769531it lets me juice the exotic gl even further
>>538771843sweet business is insane in it once you get some perks that restore ammo on hit
>>538769685To get a chance for the best gear in the game I have to slog through 400-500 which is absolute ass. Solo ops give shit drops, while fireteam ops require a perfect team to pull off in a matchmade version or a good LFG team with roughly same power so that rewards are not all fucked sideways. I swear this makes we want to play Rising instead, because a fucking predatory gacha devs made their activity reward systems at least make sense and even show you exact percentages, if the drop chance for an exotic is 3%, the fucking Chinese will at least say it openly because the goddamn Communist Party demanded it unlike the fucking liberal Western 'free' market bootlickers. I'm not even mad, I'm just tired of this shit at this point.

>>538764869There was an old leak that said they were reprising Haunted Forest, so I'm not getting my hopes up for anything that's actually new and not a slightly different spin on something old like Reclaim vs Nether
>>538775398and once again it's an artist from vicarious visions who made cool shit for destiny and not bungoit really feels like everything cools that destiny ever had was made by support studiosbungie are talentless niggers
>>538768102>naturally acceleratedOk so I'm not crazy thinking they definitely were implying something would've chilled out a little. I seriously don't understand why gate 400-500 in that way? Oh no people might see tier 5s more frequently too quickly, like it's still a death march to even start seeing 5s and RNG still fucking exists, it's like Bungie forgets how their own game is setup but considering weight gate happened maybe there is no real RNG
>>538777416They think that people will instantly stop playing once they get the roll they want, which is why they had to put the crafting genie back in the bottle. That means putting the "completed" weapons and armor behind a mindless grind that will take up most of the expansion's lifespan.
it's uphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vp1sCEhuqwk
>>538777881i'm sure that the data shows that people do, but what they discount is that it builds long-term goodwill, which is not as good to quantify. i was actually pretty happy about crafting and buying every year until they started nerfing it in TFS (and making the story shittier than normal)

Did they change banshee's voice actor?
>>538783413It was an unlisted change and we don't know why. Fred Tatasciore doesn't seem to use social media(his last tweet was in 2023), so nothing directly from him either.
Just go back to the old seasonal model. Give me the old unlock grid. The seasonal activity. The two or three variations on it. The The heroic version. Weekly story missions. Those audio plays for more after action lore. Just take us back and all is forgiven. Do what works not this goofy grind sim shit. Or if you MUST do this shit you need to totally Borderlands/Outriders these gear drops. If I I did one expedition (nightfall) in Outriders it would give me like a dozen endgame legendary drops with multiple randomly rolled exotics and exclusive high end mods. Every. single. time. Take notes.
>>538783826That sounds a whole lot like overdelivery to me.
I can't stand borderland's dog shit artstyle and writing, why doesn't anyone make something that looks good

>you get black market favor just from saying hi to drifter once a daypoor guy's lonely...
>>538773316It would have been better if they just finally did away with power alltogether. Couple gear tiers to the difficulty of the activity (the modifier system would work great for that), and you know what, finally do like a real mmo and tie an inate health and damage increase to gear tier, so that if you step into a raid with tier 1 you just get fucked. Now the grinding is for fun weapon and armor rolls and actual power increases, like it should be.

>>538777881>people will instantly stop playing once they get the roll they wantThing is, they do. That's the one thing where the Destiny community is wrong and retarded: they only care about gear and numbers and not about whether something is actually fun to do. There are many things in the game that don't offer any meaningful rewards to me but i still do them because i enjoy the gameplay of it, because i'm an actual human with an intact soul, but that makes me a minority.
>>538785534Get back on the fucking hamster wheel
What are the consequences of having such a low player count until december
>>538786582Total Bungie Death, more layoffs.Honestly probably not terrible some games have sustained themselves with less, but Sony will definitely start buttfucking them raw.
>>538786190Nah, i'll play Rising instead.
>>538785526Drifter deserved better than Gambit.>>538786582More layoffs, Playstation probably bled an ungodly amount of cash just because of Bungie's fuck ups, not to mention how harmful their advice was>Cancelled Last of Us 2 Factions because Bungie thought it wouldn't keep players long term>Invested 400 million into Firewalk and Concord on the whole only for the game to close after 2 weeksAt this point Sony is done beating around the bush, they'll make sure Bungie gets their act together or else.
>>538784880Something like that. It gives me a legendary hand cannon.
>>538787729>At this point Sony is done beating around the bush, they'll make sure Bungie gets their act together or else.There's a reason that Truman's position is simply "studio head" and not CEO. Sony's been fed up with Bungie's leadership since before the current president/chairman fully inherited the position. https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/sony-president-wants-bungie-to-be-better-at-assuming-accountability-for-development-timelines/

fun times ahead playing Destiny 2!
>>538739010Soon
why did they bother adding so many legendary weapons when they're all irrelevant the second you start getting mythic drops? you could say it's the same thing as blues, but there's only ever a few blues whereas legendaries take up half the weapon roster. it seems like a pointless waste of good content, especially since a lot of the guns are fun
Finally... Something to do on my Redmagic 8s Pro besides emulate PSP.
>>538797371the problem for me is that there's only one mythic auto
Season of Investigating an issue
>>538797371Bungie legitimately doesn't have content, the fact they had to be bullied to expand recency weapon lifespan speaks volumes, they were seriously going to soft sunset not only the 1 raid for the year but entire DLC's worth of shit in a matter of 4 months and few weeks. The why? i've got no idea because you'd figure you could make money if people actually wanna buy the DLC, i guess bean counter metric clowns say alright the most we have to gain is fat slobs with one fist up ass and another on credit card eating the EV sloppa and that balances out losing an entire playerbase i guess.
I am Investigating Destiny Rising
>>538798220i'm talking about rising anon bungie has nothing to do with this
>>538798324rising is still better than d2
>>538740740There is but bungie dare not release SIVA less they completely lose control of their game/studio.
these sort of ai reviews are the reason destiny isn't overwhelmingly negative on steambungie are shameless
>>538798526never said otherwise but putting effort into a bunch of new guns for your new game and then making 70% of them worthless is still stupid. yeah bungie is stupider but that's the lowest possible bar
>Open Rising for the first time>Toast notification alerts me that "Destiny: Rising has pasted from your clipboard"Why did they need to do that I don't like that
>>538799892> Story? Oh, you want narrative? Try unraveling a plot that spans galaxies, timelines, and emotional trauma. One minute you're fighting a god made of sadness, the next you're helping a robot bird find its purpose. I cried during a seasonal questline. I don't even know why.
>>538799892>>538800518>Shit that didn't even happenI need the doom to hit harder. That genuinely pisses me off
>>538799892What on earth did chatGPT even look at to come up with this shit?
Sometimes when I'm playing D1, a character's ambient dialogue is something from D2 and it freaks me out. Variks mentioned Eramis and I think Ikora just referenced Cayde's death.
>>538801716are you sure you're not going schizo?
>>538801716So it's not just me. I thought I was going crazy.
Bungie won't be able to turn the player count around for Ash & Iron, but if they put in overtime for Renegades despite it further stripping away Destiny's identity which has been stripped away with D2 launch to begin with, the interest in Destiny could come back
>>538801716They used to do this, there was an early SK patch note they sneaked in "vendor voicelines intended for Forsaken" and lo and behold it was all the coming doom and gloom build up to arrivals idle chatter. Considering Vance's voice actor died way long before Arrivals yeah we were supposed to have a different game
>>538803352I keep seeing thing about content creator view counts low, and some of these people are kinda fucked which is lol, also a lot 100% padded by saar bot
i think one of the worst things about rising is how often it makes you play as wolfhe's like the least fun character in the entire game but he's the protag so you gotta play as him all the time
yeah I'd be annoyed if I was forced to play as a canon hunter too
>>538805313>>538805763True. It’d be no big deal if they let you choose your class firsthand, but they didn’t do that.
>>538805313>he'sthere's your problemfemwolf is sassy and fun
Only Bungie would specifically add a nasty frown and scowl to help sell their new big DLC character. All females must be mean and angry all the time or they're not real feminists like us Womyn at Bungie!
Is the Duelist title impossible to get now? This seal says it has to be done "in Season of Preparations", which is over, but I have no idea how they expected anyone to beat every single NPC in two weeks.
>>538807550Also heteros get fridged in the most baffling asinine way possible.
>>538807663i dont feel like logging on to check rn but im pretty sure its just a shit translation and the intended meaning is "beat every npc introduced in season of preparations"
>>538791572Moving out in December into my own place and trying to get /fit/ to avoid diabetes since the game isn't worth playing right now.
>>538794553lol when he said that bit saying how Bungie basically are being fuckers and what if they didn’t change anything as planned and solo activities got to exist with a +0 powerful. Honestly I think Dmg is probably gonna skip town for putting in that natural acceleration comment, I feel like even beyond explicit wording, Bungie kept implying that there wasn’t a rush to get to 450 and that things would be more normal and easier to catch up in Ass and Iron. Just absolute scumbag moves
>>538801716spooky
>>538779972gives nursing handjobs to exo titans
>>538791328Praying for Datto
>>538791328I guess Jez is making a visit soon
>>538786582Might get a few articles to prime for future or absolutely nothing. The shoe dropped last year by the downswing of Revenant and that was when all the Frontiers shit got lead on, downscaling of 1dungeon 1 raid, but like there wasn’t the implication how disposable they were trying to make the game back then. This time around I genuinely don’t know, we literally had a time when Bungie was bragging and encouraging people to work for them and a lot of people have been shit binned and nobody is pulling any miracles in Marashit
>>538805313low T post
>>538779972
>>538808778How's this gun nowadays?
>>538808960still does its job, does it well
>>538807550she looks fine, kinda cool.
>>538808960 it's in rising too
do you guys think the ghostfucker is still around? do you think he knows about zev? do you think he's cooming buckets to her?
>>538777881Well they could have had Banshee offer a one time per gun deal to burn a weapon with a desirable perk and transfer it to a gun that doesn't have itOr enhance perks on the rare and elusive godroll found in the wild in exchange for some expensive currency Or have Ada lock a stat on a piece of armor and reroll the rest within the totalAnd if Banshee doesn't fuck with Stasis or Strand there's the darkness forge using some pseudo sword logic kill some stuff remake the gun or something It's understandable to not want to hand people perfect godrolls but surely it's possible to give people what they want (loot) and a way to make that loot work for them
>>538810653>izzy has outlaw again in risingA million torturous deaths for every bungie employee over and over and over again
Since dg likes piss from thd ass, does anybody ekse have a hard time kissing in public places? I can only piss when im at home
ew
>>538809378I remember running it a ton back in 2019. Probably my most-used exotic weapon at the time,
>>538812412>kissingPissing*
>>538807550Why do game so many devs make women with those weird bulgy eyes?
>>538808061I don't think Bungie's told the straight truth about literally anything related to Edge of Fate, except "it's the start of a new saga", and even that is dubious depending on how you read the storytelling.
>>538787729>>Invested 400 million into Firewalk and Concord on the whole only for the game to close after 2 weeksWe've no indication that Bungie was ever in advisement over Concord. Frankly, given that most of Firewalk was made of ex-Bungie staff, they probably just recused themselves or Sony prevented it from ever happening.I also think the Last of Us battle royale was the correct call; the genre was already getting saturated, and it's only gotten worse.
>>538812582Bungie has been lying to its playerbase and omitting important details about every little thing for ages.
>>538804253He died?
>>538797371I still switch back to purples sometimes when I need a specific elemental match-up that isn't covered by a Mythic. A good roll is still good.
No effect. It's actually over this time, huh?
https://youtu.be/ffa98jl_9C4?si=OXPQ4j1Nsje-qgE9It’s up bros
>>538813394200k over the weekend guaranteed
>>538813394You gotta let them cook
>>538813394the combo of ass and iron + bl4 + rising all releasing at the same time might actually be what kills destiny
lmao
>>538813394The epic raid is coming out in 15 more days....... then shortly after that we'll have the warsat heist....... theres also the events which should net 35K players minimum..... future TWIDs could also contain juicy buffs and additions which would boost the player count....... j-just you wait and s-see....
>>538805313Get used to it because Wolf is the main character of the game and the whole main plot will be about him. Other characters have their own personal quests.
>>538815053Randy lost
>>538799913because it's a gacha first and destiny second, and 4 star weapons are immediately irrelevent the second you get your hands on a five star
>>538808061I still want to know why Bungie is so obsessed with sunsetting or resetting player progress. They barely got away with nuking half the game at the start of Beyond Light, the fact that they nuked everyone's light levels at the start of Edge of Fate doesn't even make sense. Maybe it does make sense storywise, but I never bought any Season/annual pass after Beyond Light showed they would delete all seasonal activities by the end of each expansion.At that point just make a new game or a new build. Like D2: Legacy and D2: New Arrivals or whatever subtitle they want. Rockstar did it, CoD technically did it with Warzone 1 - 2, may as well do it here if they want us to pretend its a new game so badly.
>>538815141>15 daysfucking what
>>538815259>4 star weapons are immediately irrelevent the second you get your hands on a five starI mean, sometimes devs make questionable decisions
>>538815359Epic raid launches on September 27th
>>538815678We get to watch /oursister/ end Koregos again?
>>538813394iT4S LITEREALLY A NON UPDATE? ONE ACTIVITY THAT LASTS ONE WEEK
>>538815751Yea
>>538815678>please god we have to pad our player numbers over more than a week please come back in 2 weeks
>>538741687>>538742257Unspeakably based.
>>538815259yeah that makes sense, didn't think of it that way because usually gachas don't have that many 4-stars but i guess 90% of the legendaries are probably reskinsstill wish they didn't do the retarded gacha thing though because there's just not enough mythics yet. two non-exotics of each type (less for a few types) is starting to get old already, especially when some types are exclusive to brick characters i'm not gonna level
what with the furry obsession here?
>>538816768they are soft and fluffy. what more could you want
>>538816768Redditors are often furries, so when they come here as tourists they can't help but inject their zoophilic desires into everything (tale as old as time). In better times this behavior was kept in check through public shaming and jannies who did their jobs but sadly redditfugees outnumber actual users these days and jannies are all trans and furry.
>>538816647it definitely sucks more given the gameplay is more developed than the average gacha, exotics help but they clearly want character abilities to stand out over gun playat the very least it does satisfy the overpowered space wizard itch that destiny used to
>>538791572Fucking up my drivers license at 34.
>>538807350Femwolf sounds like an annoying tranny. And yes, i'm talking about the voice that's supposed to be female, voice 3 sounds even more like an annoying tranny.
>>538815268>I still want to know why Bungie is so obsessed with sunsetting or resetting player progressPlayer progress has to be reset every once in a while, longform live service games don't work otherwise. If you look at a more traditional mmo like WoW, they basically do a small reset with every raid patch and a big one with every expansion.In the case of Destiny, the question is "how do you make people care about new guns without powercreeping them?" I get a new gun if it looks good, but that's not a good enough reason for most people.
>>538817431>satisfy the overpowered space wizard itch that destiny used toI honestly think that current D2 does it better than mainline Destiny did it at any other point. D1's "throw one grenade once a minute" gameplay never really made me feel that.
Does any character in Rising use Sunbracers yet
>>538819116Yeah osiris in a few months [\spoiler]
Bobby I’m sorry. I’ll take the paid shaders. Please come back Bobby.

>>538791572Got fired from my job two months ago and been trying to get into another one. Welfare is keeping my head above water and my savings are holding steady, but I miss having a reason to get out of bed in the morning. Been going to the gym more, trying to fix some unhealthy habits5/10, could be better but im not drowning mentally.
Hey guys
i want my pinnacle energy NOW. let me play the game!
>wanted to grind Borderlands tonight>kept crashing and low frames on my 5090>decided to wait until another hotfix comes out, hopped on Destiny cause bored>got the new arc sidearm roll I wanted first trymaybe I treated Bungie too harshly this past week
>>538823346No!
>>538791572absolutely nothing has gone right within the last 10 years, it has all been downhill.
>>538812553it's part of the Work
>>538797371>play wolf>both her primary and heavy mythics are solar>on a solar hunterliterally the only reason if you really do not want to play another character to match elements.
Umeko's practically begging Wolf to rape her by the end of her character quest
>>538816768The only notable furry we've ever had here was caliboom and he was a jerk
>>538827531nah, we've had a few.i even remember some fatfur posting images of his oc to annoy people after they kicked him out of raids or whatever the fuck
>>538827503the rebreather stays on
>>538817815Same here bro
>>538827808His brand of correction requires too much kissing for that
>>538828329scandalous!
>>538791572I have changed exactly nothing about my life since I first came here in 2018. I have maintained relatively similar levels of comfort. I've been in my lane this whole time. I think the only thing that might have changed is that either video games are worse now or maybe I'm just getting bored of them, but I have less and less reason and desire to spend money on them as the years pass. Looking back, destiny didn't turn out close to the way I expected.
>>538828873i told myself the same thing about games until i actually started playing things i actually enjoyed like silksong and E33 lately, i guess sometimes you just need a refresher
>>538829373I should have specified multiplayer games. It's all become live service shit now. Not a big fan of this emphasis on cosmetics either. It's either lame wacky microtransactions, or they make a bunch of hideous characters/armor and all of the armor or characters that actually fit with the game world are the microtransactions. I miss when gear in mp games actually had a consistent theme based on what you did to get it and where you got it and the way it looked was proportionate to how strong it was usually.
>>538818650Bungie are retards. They want the game to have seasonal resets like poe and diablo, but it feels like they've never played those games. Destiny is super stingy with loot, you grind your gear slowly, very slowly, meanwhile in other seasonal games you can get your character endgame ready in like 10-15 hours. You're also always underlevelled because of the delta, you never get to be overpowered like in diablo or poe. Essentially, you reward for levelling up is a higher difficulty level, not the power, if anything, you're getting weaker. Such a wonderful reward system. Who tf at bungo thought it's a good idea? Idk.
>>538827503Practically every girl wants to fuck Wolf unless they're lesbo why is he such a chad?
>>538831070>heWolf is Radegast's future wife.
>>538830320Remember when people would chase the same raid loot for years on end?Or how a season might update loot from a specific place to encourage you to go back there and farm it for a bit?Or how crafting updates revitalized every raid not named Garden of Salvation?Fuck you, farm this loot, now, and in 6 months when it's worthless do it all over agian.
bungie cooked
more like bungie is cooked
Enjoying Rising enough to put money in it, but don't want to become a whale.
nuh uh
No fucking way I'm having more fun playing mobile gacha game.
oh so bungie can do quick fixes when they want?more layoffs
>>538791572At work bug testing and fixing games. Plan on going to a convention tomorrow, maybe I’ll see a Destiny cosplayer
>>538832860You are. It's better. It's not even a high bar, it's just the first time we're seeing the destiny universe in an actual game instead of some retarded frankenstein creation resembling a video game.
>>538833197Yeah, overall it's not fucking great, but holy fuck it's better that what we had (it's a fucking mobile game) in the past couple of years.
>>538791328I know he's done this in the past but fuck datto actually has problems. No healthy thinking man does things like this and I don't even know what could have led him to this point. Maybe the people around him? Idk but I would not be surprised at all if he troons out next year.
I got 2 5 star characters in 30 pulls in permanent draw, is it bait?
New pasta dropped
>>538833602It's amazing to see characters and npcs just casually do things in the world, eh? Never thought we'd get that in a bungie game. This IP has lacked basic bitch video game staples for a decade and all it took was a mobile game to bring it all down and make everyone realize how truly retarded bungie is. It's not even enough that bungie constantly fucks up, someone had to do it slightly better and they did. Shame it had to be literal gacha slop though. Real shame.
>>538833828Listen, you all just don't understand the direction Tyson 'Gone Fishin'' Green is taking the game. Trust the plan. Two more weeks.
>>538833828Let him cook
>>538833828wait, he might be into something
>>538833828Leftists don't like feedback and will only censor you then double down on their stupidity and animosity.
>>538829636the only competitive game i've played in a while for over 100 hours is mechabellum
Any gacha I play, the most I'll do is pay for monthlies if I do swipe at all where I delude myself into thinking I'm paying a subscription to play it in order to justify throwing money away.Does Rising have something like that? Not battle passes, fuck those. Purely premium currency. If not then how "f2p friendly" is it right now?
Is the general going to split? I’m genuinely happy to never check in on D2 anymore >>538833852>Netease does Overwatch but better >Netease does Destiny but better (or at least less embrassing) Winds of chance man
>>538834216Nah bro they just want you to have free healthcare
>>538834546why bother splitting
>>538834546>Is the general going to split?lol no. bungie will not divide us
>>538834573ironic shitposting is still shitposting
>>538833828>d1 grind approachD2 grind is nothing like d1 grind wtf is he talking about
>>538834715i mean it's kind of like forever 29 + grinding planet mats for the exotic sword but multiplied by 1000 and spiraled into every system of the game
>>538834715No idea. Only 390-400 takes awhile
>>538834573>Ikora's new law would give every child in the city free meals. yes it has to come packaged with this other law that disarms you and allows mass surveillance of the populace. No we can't just pass the free meals part
Imagine starting the franchise with Rising
not like Destiny 2 is any better at onboarding new players
>>538834715People that say shit like that don't actually know anything about D1's grinds, just that people say they were bad
>>538835105the loot cave is still, to this day, the most insultingly bad thing in all of destiny's history
>>538835170Other then the horrible changes made in shadowkeep
just imagine releasing your fucking looter game then having activities reward worse loot than a fucking patrol zone (and, let's not forget, repeating that in your sequel)
>>538835249yeah shadowkeep in general was #2 no contest, everything began to get awful then, FOMO spun as a good thing, braindead easy and copy pasted content, stupid story, terrible FOMO pseudo leveling system, nerfing guns but leaving abilities untouched
>>538834714Canadian healthcare for you chuddie :^)
This is by far one of the laziest, worst, and most horrible looking Destiny veichle I have seen from this gameNot to mention they killed, raped, and murdered gambitWhat were they actually thinking?
>>538836352>What were they actually thinking?probably >dude star warsnot much actual thought rattling around up there.
>>538836352>What were they actually thinking?They cooked bigly. Now clap at the vex wearing clothes and the fallen biker gang
>>538836352>What were they actually thinking?
>>538834487>If not then how "f2p friendly" is it right nowFriendly enough that you can experience the relevant content that destiny 1 or 2 didn't have [spoilers]quests and shit and actually seeing the world and characters fleshed out in a single series of missions instead of across 3 expansions[/spoilers]. I'm still not really seeing where the whaling is supposed to come into play unless you want a specific character for fun purposes or something. I'm missing a character that I want but I don't want it badly enough to dump 50 bucks or whatever since the game itself is still fun.
>>538837027Holy fuck I'm retarded, I need to go to sleep. Nighty night.
>>538837216ctrl s
>>538779972Turned into depressed seamstress.
>>538836352>This is by far one of the laziest, worst, and most horrible looking Destiny veichle I have seen from this gameWere you in coma for past ~4-5 years? Eververse had a shitton of gimmick and novelty ships/sparrows streaming down like piss from an overweight 'murican suffering through stroke on his mobility scooter, while shopping for soda in walmart.
>>538838535Yes those are horribleBut I feel like putting a big oversized hunter helmet on 2 legs takes the cake
>>538838535I like that sparrow
>>538838535>not posting the mini-scooterthose were obviously joke items, this is them trying to be "serious".
The outlaw shit from that canceled Cayde comic looked more appealing than Renegades.
>>538834546there's no reason for it to split, rising is part of the franchise, you wouldn't split the general to talk about destiny 1the OP needs to start including information about rising though
>>538791572future seems bleak. i'm currently the most depressed I think I have ever been. kinda just hoping one of these days i don't wake up. isolating myself because i feel like a burden to those around me, just an ugly useless eater taking up space.at least rising is fun. i wish d2 hadn't shat the bed so hard, i really liked it a couple years ago.
Believe it or not but destiny has always been about star wars
>>538844579This. Ghosts are literally companion droids and darkness subclasses represent the darkside and light subclasses represent the light sideNot to mention stuff like ghaul is literally general grievous, calus's storyline is literally darthvaders and the witness is the emperorAnd yet people act like destiny has never been about star wars act like it's a problem now
At what light and tier level should I start keeping my gear and going for godrolls?Also do tiers and enhanced perks mean my old spare rations godroll is now just a hood ornament?
The absolute STATE of this "not a crossover!" Star Wars expansion. I haven't played since Final Shape first dropped, decided to catch up a bit to see how things are looking, and fuck me is this one of the most shamelessly void-of-creativity cashgrab-looking lows I've ever seen for a game. Embarrassing.
>>538845068this is just embarrassing
>Warlock with bedroom eyesDon't stick dick in crazy guys
>>538840783Not to mention we already got the outlaw fantasy without the pathetic, creatively bankrupt IP crossover or obnoxious tropes in Forsaken. We had the rough shantytown, the dusty wastes, the fat greedy gangster, a literal pistol duel for Last Word, the morally grey revenge mission to murder Uldren, the saloon/bar, all without it feeling even a fraction as uninspired and lazy as stuff like Plunder, Deep, and Revenant were.

The biggest tell of everything was “we’re still working on the exotic quest” and then the slide show pieces for Renegades that were shit that come about in a housekeeping maintenance update not a DLC. I would say I predict Bungie to lean more into the “we’re a story game now” bullshit but judging off people who regurgitate lore books for a living they’re gonna be jumping out a window soon given how they’re getting a quarter or less viewership than they normally would get. I would genuinely be surprised if we get more than 1 or 2 years out of this game and one of those years genuinely being more Ash and Iron than actual expansion. I also will say it again Andy won, absolute slime ball social media manager guy but he had Dmg take the bait and 100% knew this year was gonna suck and didn’t want to have his face on panels.
I couldn't find a better sample but this Keep of Voices sample in Rising is just pure kino it gave me chills, the chinks truly do deserve to become the next world superpower. The boss fight itself was amazing too.https://youtu.be/Oi9pEI48JTQ?si=vJFZcWnmV7wq91sd&t=168
I like Allison's quirk chunges writing and personality.we just need the gameplay/level design teams to actually put in some effort
>>538828873I had zero dog in the race and only started playing Destiny with 2’s launch because other friends played it and I didn’t play console or games in the era of late PS3/early 4 and it genuinely feels like how copecels describe star citizen for the sales pitches of what Destiny 2 could be like back then. I def had my fun with this game from time to time and I am forever grateful to have played with nice people but it needs to be studied how bad Bungie fucked everything up that should’ve been an easy layup
>>538851763>we just need the gameplay/level design teams to actually put in some effortuhm, ackshually, tiger engine is a ps3 era engine, chud, it's too old for the level of fidelity people demand, you're asking for too much
>>538852150the thing is, what engine could do Destiny's gunplay the same.I feel like if they moved engines it just wouldn't feel the same
>>538852451Realistically, no one is talking about moving to another engine. They can use their own, they just cba to upgrade it and bring it to the modern day.DE have their own engine they've been using for like 15+ years, now it's used in warframe and soulframe, they keep upgrading it to improve the fidelity and add new stuff. Soon there will be another massive visual revamp in warframe because they're backporting new stuff from soulframe.WoW's engine is fucking ancient and started out as a fork of the war3 engine. Blizz still keep upgrading it with every expansion, they keep adding new stuff.Fatsharks and arrowhead use their own forks of the stingray engine that was retired by autodesk ages ago. But they keep upgrading their own stuff. Like, did you know that the original magicka game and helldivers 2 run on the same engine?But bungo doesn't do that, they do minor tweak, no major changes, if anything, the fidelity went down over time. But they keep feeding us the excuses.
>>538853034bungo are talentless niggers
>>538853034Also, iirc, it's one of the support studios at activision that's actually upgrading their pos engine for PC and the new era and not bungo themselves. How tf did a support studio manage to figure out bungo's proprietary engine better than bungo themselves? What are these hacks even doing with all that eververse money?
>>538848089For sure, just a fun little event, no dramas. Or even if the new expansion campaign just had a curiously high density of little nods to Star Wars, that could be pretty harmless. But the promo material literally being "Look at this warlock with a lightsaber, and the Darth Vader armour set!", with LucasArts' licence on it? What were they thinking? >>538845932A great point, we've already had "space western", and honestly I wouldn't have had a problem with something similar again so long as it wasn't such an egregious not!cross-over. I wonder, though, I never played Plunder, Deep or Revenant: I know Plunder was the reddit-tastic le epic pirates season, but what were Deep and Revenant clear "homages" to?

>>538852451The gunplay feel is overrated point at this time, it’s really just a shit pile of aim assist and even then the game’s dinosaur bones can have things to act correctly. Sure engine was made literally for a time when the mission was simple to have a FPS on console in a more primitive time, but like there’s far too much that’s long in the tooth. Idk I think what personally broke me and my dick riding of “the feel” was Challenge Day 1 War Priest where you had to have everybody participate on the buff swap but because it was contest and war priest he had one of if not the most health in the game at that point and your window for attack was all fucked because everybody was seeing different timer numbers due to tick so that was important seconds where you’d have damage counting as immune. It just made me go retard rage and I’ve wanted to shoot the engine into the sun.
the rising energy per day is way too low
Building Estela is pretty tricky, I tested several guns and they all charge her dragons differently. There is a p2w build with a battlepass weapon level 2 catalyst that can reload LMG, but I'd rather stay f2p
>>538854763I think you can get the battle pass exotic at the end of the free track
>>538854883Yes, but you need another copy for level 2 catalyst

>>538854763I'd get the first tier of the battlepass at the very least, it's a good enough price for the content imo. We have to do worse to remain competitive in D2.
>Praxic Order are the Jedithis i understand, they kinda have the same feeling.>Dredgen are the Siththis I don't understand, unless I just never read much of the lore, it always felt like to me based off of Drifters description that they were more outlaws/mercenaries
>>538760971>start up Destiny 3>see this>Finally... you're awake...
is there a mega autistic guide for Rising yet? All these currencies and I'm unsure what's the best thing to buy for each. For example I got Fortuna Crystals, I could get character upgrades or more LE Draws, but the character upgrades are all the permanent banner so presumably I'd get them all eventually. My prior gacha experience was Nier Reincarnation (which I loathed) and a toe dip into Genshin so I know how these things go to a degree.
>>538856007incel
>>538856007I just don't get why Bungie is so weird about Rise of Iron, they fucking made it. It wasn't even like the Activision supports VV or Toys for Bob were contracted to put something out, Bungie made RoI
>>538845320>>538856292You should stop playing.No this is not me being rude it's genuine advice.

>>538845320>At what light and tier level should I start keeping my gear and going for godrolls?tier 2/3 weapons are equivalent to what we used to have, so keep rolls you like from that tier as you're leveling up, until you get a t4/t5 version that replaces it>Also do tiers and enhanced perks mean my old spare rations godroll is now just a hood ornament?if your spare ration is enhanced then it's equivalent to a tier 3.t4/t5 is where our old gear starts to be worse, as t4/t5 provide enhanced mag/barrel/mod/origin traitbasically just keep what you like as you level up, make builds with what you have and keep replacing parts of it with better stuff as you climb.ideally getting all t4/t5 stuff would be best, but realistically in the current grind, T3 is what you'd aim for if you don't want to burn yourself out.hopefully with whatever changes are coming though, you'll be able to get t4/t5 easier.also make sure to complete the highest Guardian Rank available to you, that factors in to your loot quality
>>538856554nah the dredgen have always been over-the-top edgy bad guys who wear all black and do evil shit for no reasondredgen yor isn't even his real name, it's the equivalent of a darth title
>>538856660starting D3 with us getting saved from the infinite forest is the only way to salvage this story
>>538853389Deep was mostly lazy tropes related to deep sea diving (scuba suits, underwater environments that just looked like earth even though it’s supposed to be a sea of methane on Titan, the chests looked like clam shells, the cosmetics were all just related to scuba diving and submarines)Revenant was all just supposed to be vampire/dracula shit. You had potion mixing, a gun that shot stakes, you had Dracula’s castle with organs, you had Grims hanging out with the scorn so they had “bats” with them. Just like really lazy, barely-altered tropes from those genres of fiction.
>>538857995okay that makes sense why they compared them to Sith, that just threw me off.thx 4 xplanation

>>538857792>if your spare ration is enhancedI don't even know what enhancing is honestly. I got my SR all the way back in 2019.
So... what's the story of Renegades? Just a new Cabal faction wanting to kill us? What about the Nines? Is this arc already over?
>>538858453Sorry im posting through my Nokia phone and it doesnt have a camera
>>538859156The arc is over. Not because it has been resolved; because Destiny 2 will not last long enough to see it conclude.
>>538858597you can salvage them for bright dust
>>538858309Fuck me, yeah I just looked up the promotional art for Revenant and it certainly is as you describe. It's funny, I feel like everything mentioned here would have been perfectly fine and a fun little thing, if it were nodded or alluded to in the odd moment. Like I get it, this expansion is about some weird necromantic happenings and some "vampire" scorn, so maybe let's include the odd little wink and a nod to Dracula in the missions. But as with many things, the dose makes the poison, and just having such an obvious sort of pastiche is really jarring. This fictional universe has its own aesthetic and its own vibe, and it doesn't need to have other stuff plastered on top of it. This sort of thing in games is honestly such a bugbear of mine, completely tangential ranting now but Magic: the Gathering is awful for it. I want the M:tG setting. I don't want Fallout crossovers, and I don't want "the western movie plane", and I don't want "the old school detective drama plane". It's so weary.
>>538859156this whole saga (4 dlcs until December 2026) is about The Nine and us avoiding death, and we need to do that by how III told us, bind the Nine together.this dlc is about a cabal faction that is creating a superweapon that we need to stop, as well as a Dredgen working with them for some reason that the Praxic Order picked up on.in the ViDoc they mentioned The Nine are directly involved with all this, so we'll see which Nine is trying to fuck us over (I'm thinking Saturn or Uranus).
hard to believe things would get so bad in destiny that I would unironically enjoy a borderlands game. things are far worse than I ever thought they would get
>>538860076if you don't like the game in its current state, then you don't deserve the game at its best.please leave and don't come back.
The aesthetic integrity of Destiny has been slipping since D2 vanilla, but ever since joe blackburn took over it went into overdrive, Renegades is the natural conclusion to this.
>>538856912Same reason why Bungie hates Halo 2

>>538859156Maya asspulled some cabal legion from another timeline and they are huge fans of star wars so they half assedly copied all their designs and they also built another almighty since they thought it was a cool thing they did.

>>538859353The Bright Dust store has been pretty awful so far. It's following the D2Y1 "we're just going to sell you recolors of the same few Ghost/Sparrow models because we're not allowing you to use shaders on them lmao" approach. You can't even buy shaders with BD even though they're consumable and don't work on half the guns, FFS.Yellow Tan is awesome, though.
>>538860467Just ignore them. They actively support bully culture and contribute nothing to discussion other than to make people feel shame
>>538860706First ability makes the game play itself, even better if you get the bonus that makes your melees hit like a truck.

>>538862205Still mindblowing that Netease was able to try an Uncharted-like setpiece in their mobile game and yet Bungie can't be assed to try much scripted scenes like it for their campaigns.

>>538863040yes on f95, just wait for someone to upload the latest release
>>538837027>I'm still not really seeing where the whaling is supposed to come into playI actually feel like it's coming soon. It's already kinda tough to get 3 characters to silver for acclaim 15 without having them heavily minmaxed and perfectly equipped, that's only going to get worse.

>>538865629a mobile game for lgbt children
>>538854667ZZZ eventually upped their daily energy thing when people complained, maybe Netease will do it as well.
>>538865192Sure. Play the free version and if you're into it I would suggest you kind of ignore the current expansions and get the Legacy collection and play though all that its in the Humble this month. After that if you love it you can consider getting the current Expansions which I won't lie to you need some work but if you spend a month or two playing the old stuff the current stuff will be in a better state. Up to you but its a good game going though a troubled period right now.
>>538865629It's where everything starts. btw you have one week to be raid ready, world first race kino soon
>>538854763I'm just using Gallows on her.
>>538865543It ultimately doesn't matter though.Like why do you need to "keep up". For what? Is that all games are? "Keeping up"? And anyone starting after launch day should just quit?
>>538865192If this were still the Shadowkeep era of D2 then go for it, but I dont know how a newcomer can be expected to just jump into D2 and enjoy it. So much of the story is gutted from the game and the New Light tutorial really isn't that great either. You would be better off just trying D1 The Collection with its super low player population or just playing Destiny Rising instead.
I'm going to rape the blue nails anon
>>538866470I'm taking a trip to the retro store today.Is it worth picking up "Destiny" for the Playstation 4? I would have assumed the servers were should down by now?
>>538865980I can do like four sets of the nine thing
>>538866647Servers are still up, but a physical copy will probably have expired registration codes, so you kind of have to buy it through the PSN store.
>>538854667it's even worse than it seems because you should always be spending energy on iron commander ops since they have a chance for extra rewardswhich means if you want to play efficiently you're using 33% of your daily energy on not playing the game>>538866385it's not about leaderboards or whatever. it's about a new player who gets some 4-stars they like, pulls some standard 5-stars and a limited, tries to build all of them at once, and gets fucked by gacha systemsand the way the loadout system works actually does encourage you to keep up and build a big roster, unless you want to skip the inevitable limited RL character and cope with ikora
>>538865917Cope.
>new light quest tells me to go to the tower>go to the tower, talk to zavala>nothingIs the new player experience quest just bugged and abandoned?
>>538867796probably. the better question is why are you starting to play this game?
>>538867796I don't think people know the suffering of the new player here, we are all veteran
>>538866647IIRC the servers for D1 are still online, likely because it and D2 share the same servers. I would recommend to do as >>538867050 suggests though, as any physical copies of the game only have the vanilla game on them most likely, and the codes would have expired years ago. The collection on PSN includes the base game + all expansions and at $25 CAD you'll get your money's worth from it. The vanilla campaign's story isn't good, but its more about the lore and the combat still holds up. Alternatively if you don't want to spend money, Rising is also a better entry point if you have a capable enough device or PC that can emulate it.
>shooter put a reference to Hell Divers 2 on one of the bullets>no references to Destiny 2This is without doubt proof that destiny is dying and not in the main stream anymore otherwise he would have put "Guardians make their own fate" on one of the bullets
>>538868793he also wrote about looking at men's bulges on one of the bullets lol
>>538868793if they wrote Guardians make their own fate, I would take my own life right now because of the second hand embarrassment
>>538868793He did leave a D2 reference, a dead body.
>>538868471I'm a returning player, I just wanted to stickerbook the legendary armors (fruminous for hunters, forget what the rest are called). Problem is that "travel to the tower" does not update no matter how many times I travel to the tower, or what landing point I use.

>unequivocal proof Gladius sets really were meant for Iron Banner and got shoved into Eververseholy fuck bungie
>>538870050It really would have been a “cool new set”. Bungie purposely takes so many Ls it’s insane.
>>538870050How is this exactly a bad thing? I get to unlock it right away and play with it instead of playing the game to unlock it
>>538870050would rather pay for sets than grind them out
>>538870050SHUT IT DOWN
>>538869916It’s because the concept of “probably best to keep shit to yourself” doesn’t exist in the world of social media. People are addicted to the upvotes and attention, not to mention some platforms like Twitter outright pay some people for posting.
The character restrictions on master activities are really stupid.
>>538870050Doesn't fit Iron Banner at all retard.
>>538871413It's part that part these people never feel the backlash for their actions because the media protects them.
