#RAPEDMG
>>539098973than you china for adding black people handshakes in the gamer!!1!!!!1 i feel seen
>>539099149beyond brainrotted
>>539098973Soul characters, soul quest
Aside from eververse shit, is Neomuna aesthetically the worst thing in Destiny as a whole?
>>539097893Is there really no better way to get catalysts than to farm legendary campaign for several days? I've minmaxxed and upgraded my Gwynn as best as i could but because i don't have the Concerto catalyst she doesn't have the power needed for gilding and i can't advance past acclaim 14.
What do we think about Umeko? I love her damage amp and invis and but goddamn is her mob clearing speed dogshit.
looking forward to Destiny 3
>>539100628I like her. I'm used to abilities that do more damage than debuff, but it's a nice way to play.
>>539100628She's the most support of all the support characters, she kinda sucks for solo play but will likely be a must for high end raiding.
>>539100735As long as it’s not made by bungie. With out luck Sony will give them to naughtydog and Neil Cuckmann, who will bring on Allison to help her achieve her grand vision.
>>539100105I liked it, I like my hyper-futuristic environment, but I didn't like my “African-American culture” not because it's bad in itself, but because it simply doesn't fit in with the Destiny universe.
>>539100105>>539101579Ngl, I have a suspicion that neomuna is like one of the earlier scrapped marathon environments. Something they discarded after pivoting to the current artstyle.
despite everything, I'm still thankful for Destiny not running on Unreal Engine.imagine the shit show from the community if it were
>>539102058They would at the very least have less excuses for being slow to update shit
>>539102058Fret not, Destiny 3 will
>>539102486Beyond Light is D3 retard fuck off
sohow are you guys doing
^rapeanon, add this one to the list
>>539102583
>do one reclaim>get crossbow>dog shit stats>ensemble/lead from light>headstone/collective actionBRUH, I’VE ONLY GOTTEN TWO DROPS AND THEY’RE BOTH AAAAASSSSSSS
>>539103152crossbows can no longer be used for dps, so you want stuff like headstone
Honestly the damage they've done to the loot system is so bad that they could make everything in Eververse free and I still wouldn't play it.
>>539103385Is it me or are most heavies hitting like dogshit?
>>539104743heavy weapons doing heavy weapon damage is a power fantasy and that's not good for metrics.
Bungie will save Destiny, they're the only ones who can.
is 2 = 3, genuinely don't know
>>539098973>there's a good chance you'll get to kill Riven's faggot boyfriend directly in Risingplease please please
>>539100105It is one of the most illogical world building and lore I’ve seen in the game maybe even in recent video games in general. Hyper advanced society puts all of its defense of 2 overloaded super humans whose lives are cut short because of that, why? It’s like not they even weren’t aware of genuine threats given Vex invasions that happened for good while and other fuckery, have a standing army or more less loaded cyborgs. Even with the enhancements shit bus and Reagan didn’t seem to have much in the way of physical power, we already know Devrim can just survive in the woods and he’s a normal human. Neomuna also had this weird ass backwards setup of seeming so care free and naive in safety yet they basically have a big brother narc state as can be seen in that one lore book where it’s basically an arrest of some randoms and calling them cultists, even if they wanted to do some heckin social commentary over rona lockdowns or whatever it didn’t exactly frame the whole world as some positive. Get in the cloud or die. I said this in past on this board but I honestly thought(stupid stupid me) Bungie would do something cool and there was going to be a twist that their entire society was a complete sham and all of them were basically being played, and not what it was cracked up to be or they really don’t live in that carefree of a world but even Bungie couldn’t serve that up. Oh and they worship the Ishtar people who we obviously find out were doing their own flavor of mad science and kinda shape up to be a little fucked up, but it’s cool because Clovis bad man and that overrules violent lesbian with an army of clones and tyrannical ambitions that blow out anything he’s ever done. I guess what I’m saying is they didn’t need to make it as fucking stupid as they did
>>539104743I noticed this too. Rockets suck, nade launcers such, linears suck, mgs okay but suck, outlier exotics NERFED. Specials feel more powerful
>>539105658I was using a LFR and it was literally doing less damage than Ice Breaker was.
>>539105474they suck ass because they saw everyone getting shit on during the dark age and did nothing to help but as soon as their door gets kicked in they need us to save them
>>539105474Their defence worked for centuries. It took the invasion of the Witness himself, accompanied by a Disciple and his infinite Legion, to significantly wound Neomuna.
Even the biggest shills like skarrow and mactis have started to quiet down. It’s over
>>539105989no one gave a shit and soon as someone did they fumbled in seconds
>>539105863The new rocket pulse out damages most if not all of my heavies while being braindead as fuck
You are soulless if you are still playing this bullshit after ash & iron LMAOIt's not xbox live & ps party days anymore anon...You need to move on
>>539106669I want siva
>>539106669nice try, but your jewish tricks won't budge me
>>539106669My soul belongs to GOD
>>539105989>Their defence worked for centuries.Only against Vex, their singular enemy for "Centuries". now bring the Fallen, the Taken, the Hive, the Cabal, the Scorn and the Dread without Guardian interference and watch them get shit on immediately.>It took the invasion of the Witness himselfThe Witness "Itself" could've waltzed right in and dab on the entire city if "It" wanted to at the very moment "It" knew about Neomuna. Extremely bad writing made "It" use Calus instead.Go be a gay retard lore defender elsewhere, you fucking clown.
>>539106168It wasn't "someone", it was literally the final boss of the universe.
>>539108310>final boss of the universeat best he was a tiny bit above Oryx, but far from even being a threat to Traveler
I FUCKING LOVE IT WHEN I'M NOT CERTAIN IF A GAME MECHANIC IS BROKEN OR INTENDED YES IM TALKING ABOUT PHALANXES WHO NEVER PUT THEIR SHIELD DOWN, NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU SHOOT THE CORE OR THEIR LEGS
>>539098973>the Great Hunt hasn't happened yet>there's a real possibility we get ahamkara as a new enemy faction
One of the biggest simps is gonehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuEGWmDtJV8
>>539108832>gone>title says "Goodbye, for now"i suggest you take your faggot youtuber elsewhere thirdie
>>539108583Miniboss and boss-tier phalanxes have an ungodly amount of shield health for some reason, and they really like to immediately raise it again on break.
>>539108832LITERALLY WHO
if there's a weapon Bungie needs to nerf, it's this one. i'm literally just printing orbs, even in hard content
>>539109507this over sturm or mint?
>>539108749It could be a good way to introduce Eris. She was with Zavala and Shaxx during the Great Hunt.
>>539109507Tier 3 and a Reload masterwork, I hope you like being kicked to orbit. In all seriousness I think by default there is wonk coding with that Wishender spaghetti that has always made it do very odd interactions. I wouldn’t be shocked if the whole “the shot over penetrates targets” or whatever ends up counting interactions twice sometimes or whatever.
>>539109892>drop ahamkara faction>along with eris, zavala, and shaxxit'd be perfect except jolder already took ward of dawn so idk what zavala would do
>>539110204He was always a Striker first and foremost. Shaxx would be the weirder one given that he used everything.
>>539109208This guy was like a similar but less disgruntled Tizzle, also gamed views like crazy with bots
I wish we got a season or expansion based on Starship Troopers.Imagine invading the hive on the moon to reclaim territory and use thralls to experiment on and invent better hive killing weapons.
>>539108749They are building around them right now, we now know how dangerous they are thanks to the main campaign and the side quests, we have one of them who is an "ally", the two Iron Lords we met have a long history with the Ahamkara
>>539111046One would think that could be in the realm of plausibility, we have a whole history of places and people the Hive fucked up, they now have hive light bearers why the hell not just stick them on some War Moon in the making and the big goal is to fight it. The fact how something so simple and easy is forgone because let’s have season of friendship and emotions for the 900th time is crazy, especially when the game has always been just brain off shoot aliens dumb fun shit.
>>539111046>Starship Troopers.That's hecking fascism you chud
i'm really scared that they're going to nerf Cure Ass for thundercrash eventually. like what if they're thinking Titans are doing too much direct damage, especially with buffs like 25% to arc.
Is this worth it?
>>539111790no
>>539111790yes, normally it costs 99 cents for 20 pinnacle energy so 3 bucks for 200 energy is a steal. the keys are nice too
>forty hours of playing>power level 170Does it get better or worse once you hit the persistent cap?
>>539112512Much worse
>>539112512it gets worse, grandmaster slop to level is aids, plus they fucked up the timers making progression even slower or straight up impossible
>>539112667>>539112757That's disappointing. I was half-expecting to bin D2 and go back to Warframe after finishing the final shape campaign, but I was hoping to enjoy post-story content and gear up my warlock and titan.I don't even know why bungo has to keep doing this power cap fuckery. When I first played D1 the light cap was 30. Then when I played D2 the cap was 900, and bungo bumped it up to 950 or 1000 a few months later.
>>539111790If you really NEED to speed up the grind otherwise just don't bother.Gacha games are an exercise in patience, until they start becoming P2W.
>>539112512We told you multiple times to avoid playing retard.
>>539114005normally i'd agree but they're so stingy with energy that it's not even about speeding up the grind, it's just about getting to play the game more (and yes i know you can do reduced-reward activities but that's no fun)
>>539096773it's been a year and i'm slowly forgetting the more obscure perk icons gomenasai
>>539110838yeah but we've only ever seen zavala using ward
>>539115407https://youtu.be/xI5poBxV_-A?si=sJRjfy9eFg_BTe7D
>>539113646Streamer said grind good, and bungo say more grind mean more playing. Watchable as fugg
>>539115547I was thinking about ingame but that's fair
>>539110838i'm pretty sure every guardian can use every subclass, most of them just have preferred ones
Alright Bungie, gunna need a forsaken tier expansion to save this dumpster fire of a game
>>539114186Fifteen bucks to get a bunch of expansions and toys felt quite alright. I enjoy using stasis, Witch Queen felt like a pretty good DLC with an awesome aesthetic, and I like the glaives and WQ exotics so far.Lore feels like it's gotten messy sometime during or after Lightfall. Sadly I can't comment on the seasons because despite all the story content they add I can't play or see anything from them except for a shitty paragraph per season in the timeline page.
>>539105474You forgot the part where they just sat and watched as the homeworld got raped for hundreds of years while they did nothing.>but the awokenAwoken came to help the instant they could. Actually the awoken are even more distant from humanity genetically, culturally and idealogically and they still came to help before the Neomuna.
Why does xur sell useless garbage in the 9 expansion? why does the season pass and portal weekly piss strange coins at you if there's nothing to buy?
>>539116297You'll get marathon and you'll like it.
>>539116780I really really tried to like hunt, extraction shooters are just shit
Buy silver
>>539117197no
https://youtu.be/EFTn6jQk338?si=Sem4zRJkOYKCQZnL>6 days leftAre you hyped? I hope the wait was worth it. April update was nice but hopefully the problems from TTK are fixed with this release
>>539113646There's no other reason other than they want an excuse to pad out player retention numbers. Because there's no way in hell that grinding can be considered "content", and people grind in the first place because the game has a history of locking off content until players reached high enough light levels.
>>539117197Why?
>>539117817Why not? We add more content to the store than the gameYou might aswell interact with it otherwise your missing out on like half of the content this update
>>539112512The grind becomes giga-aids around 400. You'd have to play at least GM-level shit, even in quickplay (retarded matchmade teammates and a -40 fixed delta), or slap a fuckton of modifiers. Green engram bonus drops cap at 400, so they effectively become useless. Random drops are always capped at -10 of your current level. Your source of power will be actual activity completion drops and ultra-rare prime engrams, event/weekly portal pass rewards, and Zavala's weekly weapon and 2 armors. If you are good at pvp, you can farm Crucible to your heart's content. Other than that, it's just pure Bungie's retardation all around. A fucking Chinese Destiny-themed mobile gacha feels more rewarding at the moment where I have hit the massive timegated resource wall.
>>539117608you retards are so far gone it's unbelievable
it'd be hilarious if Tyson Green or someone higher just told us to cope and that the grind is fine for them
>>539115712Old D2 vanguard bounties had a quote from Sloane saying that Zavala used to run Striker a lot in the past.>>539116437There was some retarded lore about a Cloudstrider who wanted to bring culture and philosophy to a Dark Ages-era Earth and got all pissed about the fact that these people don't need enlightenment, they need fucking food and shelter from the hostile weather conditions to survive, and promptly fucked off. Lightfall had a wonderful exchange between Neomuna's news anchor and Caiatl who called Neomuna out for their bullshit.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySFIb3YvTJk
>>539118587>replying to itYou are the one who's far gone.
>pay up to be able to rng yourself down to the lowest price to paypig for this outfit gwailohilarious
>>539120553this shit about to be illegal after the eu is done with it
Buy silver in rising and Destiny 2
>>539118793In this case he's actually sorta right, 4k has always been a meme resolution that no real card can sustain well, 1440p is the sweet spot, I play at that resolution on a "4k" card and the difference is basically negligible unless you use a really large screen.
>>539120553Just don't pay, it's an event for the whales.
>>539121339Yeah no shit obvious retard
>>539121176He’s not really wrong in that 4K with modern rendering engines is basically a meme, which is why upscaling technology like DLSS became popular in the first place, or why 8th Gen games adopted dynamic res at all. But I hear the game isn’t that well optimized either even at 1080p medium for budget set ups, so there’s bound to be room for performance patches down the line.
>>539120553I just saw someone with a max rank her with the skin, why are people like this?
decided to finish up the reward path for Reclaim since BL4 kept crashing too much. got good frames but just couldn't handle it crashing every 10 minutes.whatever they changed recently defenitely makes doing GM+ portal stuff more rewarding, i got 3+ items every Reclaim run, and went from 410 to 420 from yesterday to today.regarding the activity itself, it's really weird, like i get it's supposed to be like nether and stuff but it felt a bit barren in terms of secrets/loot from area chests unless i'm just misunderstanding this activity and it's purely running through it and that's it, no secrets or anything.i also think this activity is weird because, like Nether, people were probably thinking we'll have another Dreadnaught-like map with things to do in it as well as completing the activity, and instead they made the activity and Plaguelands just part of a one week event?it's just really weird how they did this activity but whatever.also, they said it'd be something we've never seen before? or some type of new activity they've never done? is Reclaim the activity or is there something else coming next week/throughout the season?
>>539117961Why would I buy cosmetics for the same price of an entire indie game? if a suit of armor was like 5 bucks or something maybe but it's not
>>539122868The activity is slop with too many health gates and hoops to delete unnamed literal whos. Opening chests for glimmer only and +15 goy points is trash. Whoever designed reclaim needs to rope. Whoever in corporate who said to sell it as a big update needs to rope in front of a live studio audience.
>>539119205Caiatl somehow remains a decent character.
>>539123985I remember when dlc armor packs for games were like, 1-10 dollars depending on how many items you get. Now its 15+ for a single skin
>>539124425Not only that, but everything eventually ends up in the bright dust store so why spend real monies when I can just use the monopoly monies
>>539120553seems like they're milking the whales hard with cosmetics in order to make up for having an extremely generous gacha system. i don't mind it, desu, richfags looking cooler than me is a small price to pay for 60 pity no 50/50the only thing that annoys me is that the coolest fucking armor in the game is locked behind buying out the entire silver shop
Do we have a wolf pack on NA servers? :3
>>539125485very gay that the outfit from the end of the campaign costs like 150 bucks
>>539125485Milking whales with skins is the best whale to run a gacha. Let me get my characters and let those retards flaunt their ugly slop
>>539125485Better than the mainline game then. In d2 they also milk tf out of people with cosmetics, but they're stingy with loot and the activities are dogshit.
>>539123985Those suits of armor have more effort put into it then those shit indie games you play
So do you retards still stick with destiny 2 and give bungie 200$ every month because "Durrr there is nothing like destiny 2 in the market"?
>>539126797sex with this anime girl
>>539126797that's my reasoning, and in general there's no other online ARPG worth investing time into at the moment.and an online FPS ARPG? good luck finding one that could replace Destiny.
>>539126925becareful anonyou're courting sex
>>539127350mating press sex with this anime girl
>>539126797actual retard
>>539127187>and an online FPS ARPG? good luck finding one that could replace Destiny.destiny rising?
felwinter in rising when
So uuuh, is that a no to a wolf pack?
>>539118793I don't know him but I don't like him
>>539108310How's faggot knitting class treating you? Neomuna makes no sense in universe, and the cyborg teen titans make even less sense. If digitizing the entire population was ever used in a way that had payoff, you could say they digitized themselves during Oryx's invasion to keep themselves from being Taken. But no one left at the formerly great bungie knows how to tell a story
>>539127489ok fanboy
>>539127583for a mobile game it's impressive, and does match up to and even exceed some comparable areas in Destiny, fails at the gunplay but that's not the main focus of the gamplay.i can't accept it as an alternative as it will be short-lived. it's just the nature of gacha and Netease.if it released like a warframe-style game, i could see it being a direct competitor.
>Sturm back to being god until they murder itI miss Y1 and 110rpm Trials. Midnight Coup? Inaugural Adress? I sleep. Sturm & Drang? Real shit.
>>539128289>i can't accept it as an alternative as it will be short-lived. it's just the nature of gacha and Netease.lol what a thing to say so confidently when it might actually end up outliving destiny 2.you bungie cultist are wacky
>>539128546you're free to prove me wrong, but Netease's track-record would say otherwise at this time.they don't call the chinese sly foxes for nothing
>>539122868I too am trying to figure out the sources of this mind control because I shit you not I have a few clan mates who are like, zomg idk why everybody is crying about Reclaim and the story, the lore is good and for something small it makes sense, and i'm like ??? did I miss a cut scene or chunks of dialogue or something because nothing in particular stuck out as like "here's this big plot new chapter transition in the saga" . The +3s I've not seen that frequently at that level so I'd say you might've just got super lucky since +3 is basically reserved for primes
>>539129004not +3 but 3+, meaning i'm getting three drops or more of loot.
>>539127918yeah
>>539126506Dusk and hallowknight beat the everloving shit out of every single game made by big name companies in the past 10 years
>>539111509Cuirass is fine under Notswap/Locked Loadout restrictions. I'm worried about the opposite: They'll buff it so that it can be have a neutral game effect under Notswap, then just slap Notswap/Locked Loadout on all endgame activities.
Look at the state of this place. Talking about gacha shit. Absolutely disgraceful. Bungie has made vermin out of you.
So let me get this straight. After invading the tower with vex for some reason, Maya's grand plan for this season is to have cabal attack the far side of the planet, not to get Siva or Warmind access, but to just occupy land already not under the control of the vanguard?
>>539130571she's scrambling and thinks warsats and siva will somehow help her get control of her echo back
>>539130571i had this idea the other nightwouldn't it have been so much cooler if bungie did a halo ce, and had the story of ash and iron be that maya is trying to access siva. we head to the siva replication center we destroyed in wrath, and as we walk the dark hallway, it starts to slowly light up red, as splicer corpses, re-animated by siva start to appear from all around you. then the seasonal activity is just you trying to stop these siva zombies from spreading outside the plaquelands or some shit.i fucking hate bungie so much.
Every other event challenge is just some flavour of "complete Reclaim several times". This event is awful.
>>539131141it'd make more sense than 'maya pulls red legion from another timeline lmao'
>>539130917Where does it say or imply that she's after Siva? Why is she not attacking a warsat launch facility?
>>539131917The event description says she is looking for dormant SIVA caches. You transmat away Golden Age tech caches seized by the Maya's Cabal puppets, and the final boss always guards an actual Warsat. As for why she can't go after the Warsat launchers or control centers... one of the locations is an old missile silo/launch facility (Triglav), but assume the writers are absolute morons and don't know or remember shit about this game.
>>539131917>Where does it say or imply that she's after Siva?dialogue in reclaim>Why is she not attacking a warsat launch facility?that's the exotic mission
>>539132332>>539132286Yeah, I forgot about the exotic mission, lol. We'll have to wait until October.
this is ass bruv
>>539132286There's a bunch of untouched seraph bunkers on Io and completely unguarded Siva cache in the Exodus black wreckage
>>539127949Randy is the guy in charge of Borderlands. He is known to speak his mind regardless of what others think - that is both a blessing and a curse.
>>539132864you act like anyone that knows those things still works at bungie
Did the worldwide player count drop into five digits yet?
>Hey anon wanna go fishing or play some Shadowshaper Duels or something?
>>539132864Io is still in the Witness ass void and EXODUS BLACK SIVA storage has been memory holed since D1Y3 at the minimum
>>539129272N-No...
>>539133090You're right. The current devs at dungie think the inexorable timeline cancer should be wholesome chunguses that wear clothes and do heckin crime! Just like people!
>>539133261During Heresy one of Oryx's Court of Blades arenas was on Io, but I don't think Bungie ever acknowledged that it returned in full.
>>539132286>>539132332why does she even want siva when quicksilver is perfected siva
>>539133858The playerbase is too agitated to stomach any Neomuna right now
>>539133201I regret maxing Gwynn instead of Estela, desu. Gwynn's DEATH DEATH DEATH DID I MENTION I LOVE DEATH BTW dialogue gets old fast; she's more of a one-note schizo than D1 Eris. Estela's cute sperg personality is a lot more endearing and her Ahamkara is funny.
>>539134269The problem is to get Estela in the first place. I got Gwynn at around 20 draw left until guaranteed drop, so I'd have to collect leaves again for more draws. Gwynn is fun in shifting gates though, if you happen to meet a hostile fireteam of retards, it is an easy 1v3 win.
>>539130571>another poorly written villain with "emotional damage" is completely incompetent and ultimately will achieve nothingSay it ain't so Bungie!
>>539133261how isn't trying to get those places back not a top priority right now? Shouldn't the 9(minus one) have been effected by that?
>>539133858presumably she doesn't have access to that either
>>539133858She can't body one they/them even though she can kill trans-dementional gods
>>539132880>He is known to speak his mind regardless of what others thinkFuck off Randy we know you own CP.
>>539134137well we're getting the iron lord axe with neotroona nanites instead of siva with the exotic mission so get ready
>>539132853your perks are ass.
>>539133774Yes but as either Saint or Bray or Ikora said back then, it's still in the Witness ass void at this time. Only Titan and Mars are outside of it.
time to uuuhhhh...time to play some destiny 2 on this fine sunday afternoon. Iron Banner soon™ !
https://www.reddit.com/r/destiny2/comments/1ngwb2l/all_new_holofoils/With exception of FotL guns, most holofoils look like absolute shit and don't even take shaders. I remember dmg shilled holofoils a lot as something worth chasing, but why would I want to chase a thing that makes my gun look stupid (like that pearlescent pink holofoil on earlier arms week/heavy metal guns) which can't even be fixed by a shader? What's even the point?
>>539135432The thing I keep finding myself back to is Bungie originally was going to be soft sunsetting all this shit and even now with being later into an already short DLC, it makes it all the more pointless, second half stuff gets shorter life being current.I just don’t get why Bungie wanted to stick to that when there was also only going to be 1 raid for the year.
>an exotic mod costs about the same as a catalystwell that's retarded
if Rising does not add a barefoot female guardian by the end of the year I will quit and disavow china forever
>>539135372>saladindoesn't exist, get him out of here
>>539126797I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t tempted to get back into D2 because both EoF and the YoP pack are on sale for PS5, but that feeling also goes away quick when you know you’ll just be going against the same few enemy models over and over again and they purposefully made the grind abysmal to pad out what little content they have this year. It also makes me feel even more weary knowing that Renegades doesn’t even sound like it’s going to have a dedicated patrol zone, just a social hub to replace the Tower. I may as well just piss away all that money on Destiny Rising and get a more consistent experience.

>>539136256Meanwhile Rising added new models/names for Fallen and Hive snipers and a completely new combat unit for Vex and Cabal.
>>539136880Is this toxoplasmosis?
Estela's quest chain is better than anything Bungie's done since Beyond Light
>>539139831Sad thing is I can't play it until I get prficiency with Estela who I don't have. At least I saw the initial Ahamkara quest which was awesome.
>>539139831kabr's generational fumble in his quest made me want to stop playing the game
>>539135432Wtf is a holofoil, haven't played in years. Is that like the shiny pokemon version of guns?
>>539140118It's the newer version of Mementos
>>539140205Wtf is a memento
>>539140118The shiny pokemon or other card games were probably the inspiration for this, yes, some guns now have a very small chance to roll as a holofoil, which means they have a unique skin instead of a regular one. >>539140269After Witch Queen added craftable guns, later on bungie added a special slot for them to insert a rare item called memento, which gave the gun a unique title in the inspection screen and unlocked a special shader after you level up the crafted gun enough. This system is abandoned in the new sandbox, new guns don't have a memento slot and use the RNG chance for holofoils instead.
>>539140269Animated version of shaders that you could only get from some activites. They are gone now. Instead, we now have holofoils.
>Year of Prophecy Collection is on sale
>>539140853I cant decide whether I want to spend money on rising or d2
>>539140853I feel bad for anyone that paid full price for Year of Prophecy or even Edge of Fate stand-alone. It’s still tempting, but I’m also going to wait more just to see that Renegades is getting a proper patrol zone and that they’ll unfuck the game more.
When was the Witnessed first named/alluded to as a single individual? I think I genuinely dislike him down to the conceptual level. The fact that even Megamind looks like a more serious villain than him certainly doesn't help.
damn that intro quest for Estela was cool, get we replace the fags at bungie with chink sweatshops already?
>>539142139like 2 months before TFS
>>539141881>I feel bad for anyone that paid full price for Year of Prophecy or even Edge of Fate stand-alone. It’s still tempting, but I’m also going to wait more just to see that Renegades is getting a proper patrol zone and that they’ll unfuck the game more.We are never getting patrols back
it's uphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbwtb-5clcs
>>539142139I think he was first named in Beyond Light or Shadowkeep lore? We just didn’t see anything about him until Witch Queen’s post final boss stinger, which is where shit really started to go off the rails.
>>539139831extra hilarious since bungie writers have been obsessed with shoehorning in character drama ever since BLimo it's a combo of>wolf being a character instead of a blank slate means she can actually talk to characters instead of needing to be monologued at>rising running on a non-garbage engine means they can involve the characters in gameplay instead of having them yap in your ear while you do an unrelated activity (there were so many moments in d2 seasons where two characters would be having relationship drama and it's like, why am i listening to this, can't i turn my radio off and give them some privacy)>bungie writers fucking suck at writing
Why is edge of fate and renegades 40 dollars each when they're essentially half an expansion?
i have every strike exotic except concerto. several of them ive gotten more than once. im going fucking insane what the fuck
Keks me up NetEase basically made Diablo Immortal again but this time people took to it.You really do just need to keep pushing and gamers tm will accept anything.Legendary Crests = Pinnacle EnergyRifts = Strikes/Legacy/etc.Even the fishing minigame is the same the bar is just sideways now with a goofy icon lol.
>>539143149shut it, chud
>>539140521>>539140540That sounds so cool, god I wanna come back so bad but man I just know I'll regret it in a week.
>>539142139Presage was when "The Voice in the Dark" started getting established. Shadowkeep had something representing the Darkness talk to us, both through Ghost and as our clone, but it wasn't an established singular entity.
>>539143572still pissed I was cucked out of that cutscene and it never played again so I could go back in with different fashion options
>>539142575Is thinking he's shit common? I liked this affair >>539143572 so much more than having Witness tied to events, having goons, and showing up in cutscenes.
>>539143572>Shadowkeep had something representing the Darkness talk to us, both through Ghost and as our clone, but it wasn't an established singular entity.well technically unveiling was from a singular entity ("Thank you for making room in your life for another talking ball. Let me ask you a question.") but that entity was the winnower who got retconned in the very next expansionthe final line of the final entry got me so fucking hyped for the future, what a letdown the witness was>It was the gardener that chose you from the dead. I wouldn't have done that. It's just not in me. But now that they have invested themself in you, you are incredibly, uniquely special. That wandering refugee chose to make a stand, spend their power to say: "Here I prove myself right. Here I wager that, given power over physics and the trust of absolute freedom, people will choose to build and protect a gentle kingdom ringed in spears. And not fall to temptation. And not surrender to division. And never yield to the cynicism that says, everyone else is so good that I can afford to be a little evil.">The gardener is all in. They are playing for keeps. And they are wrong. Or so I argue: for, after all, the universe is undecidable. There is no destiny. We're all making this up as we go along. Neither the gardener nor I know for certain that we're eternally, universally right. But we can be nothing except what we are. You have a choice.>You are the gardener's final argument. It would mean everything if I could convince you that I am the right and only way.>I truly value you. To the gardener, you are a means to an end. To me, you are majestic. Majestic. You are full of the only thing worth anything at all.>I am, by the only standard that matters or will ever matter, the winning team. Existence is a test that most will fail. Would you not count yourself among the victorious few?>Don't hurry to deliver your answer. I'll come over and hear it myself.
Would Zev and Ghost hit it off?
>>539143309It’s because Destiny had so much potential that Bungie seldom had interest in tapping into for a few reasons>because they wouldn’t until Activision forced them to with TTK or Forsaken>because doing so would mean “over delivery” and that would mean players would actually expect more from them from now on>because they’re more interested in introducing gay shipping fanfics to their game than exploring the potential of the universe they’ve created
>>539144129No, Ghost is annoying. Considering it's chinese and their love of yuri, she'd get along with Sagira.
>buy the 100 dollar witch queen deal>Get a full expansion, 1 raid, 4 seasons, 2 dungeons>100 dollar edge of fate deal offers half an expansion, 1.5 seasons, 1 raid, no dungeons
>>539143309It all depends on the IP. Diablo already had a good game in the franchise with 2, Destiny only had good ideas in all of its 10 years of existence.
>>539144264>yuritroonKeep it chink
>>539143309Most of these chinese games look exactly the same because they have standardized UIs so it's soulless. Can't really compare it to Diablo because Diablo at least had good games until they started making bad ones. Destiny never had a chance to have a good game so surprisingly the mobile game is of higher quality.

>>539142743Tan-2 is a good comico-dramatic character
>>539144052>There is no destiny.
>>539143849I’d say so. It works much better as a vague concept or potential manifestation for the darkness than it does as a literal physical entity. Especially because of the design they went with, I’m still convinced that came about only because Pete or some other Bungie higher up fucked an intern and allowed it to be greenlit because it’s dumb as fuck looking otherwise.
doomgods, how we feeling?
>>539142743>rising running on a non-garbage engine means they can involve the characters in gameplaythis is the most revolutionary thing the destiny IP has ever experienced in the span of a whole decade. interactable npcs that aren't just kiosks with dialogue or a very precisely scripted 4 second scene like ikora throwing a nova bomb and then transmatting out. let that be a reminder as to how incompetent and incapable bungie truly is at turning a concept into a video game.

>>539150676Lightfall was underrated, the story made no sense but the content was fun, I actually liked the setpieces and strand was fun to play around with.
Why is the criminal underground holed up in a crumbling centuries old ruin when there's abandoned cabal bases all over Mars?
>>539151942>mara>sjur>eriana>wei ning>hawthorne>ana>maya>chioma>eramisdestiny has literally always been a yuri franchise lmao
>>539152362Strand and calus hard carried the expansion everything else sucked
>>539144710but it has a heckin card game AND fishing
I have done everything i can to power up my Gwynn and she is 1k points short of the 55600 gilding objective that lets me advance to acclaim 15. The only thing she doesn't have that my other characters do is a catalyst on her exotic. Is there really no other way to reach that power level? With the paltry amount of Contextual Datasets the game throws at you, getting a catalyst would be a huge pain. How did others do it?
>>539152535Lightfall absolutely ruined Calus. It turned him into a retarded jobber in a (failed) attempt to make the Witness look cooler by comparison, and it threw out all the "his robot bodies are hiding his true form which is some horrifying eldritch shit" buildup to make his true form...a big Cabal guy with a suit of armor.
>>539152546Yes. Those are objectively good things that any coop game should have. Any multiplayer game that doesn't let me play minigames with others is a failed game.
>>539152546Its still stupid that Bungie would put all that work into a fishing game with D2, only to sunset it with Final Shape.
>>539151942>new blight meltieKek
>>539153109Calus should have been the Herald of Finality in SE.
>>539152535Calus being his old jovial self for fanservice was disappointing after a mission, book, and season about how he was abandoning who he was to ensure his status as the last. His single high point was his monologue to the Witness.
>>539153072you dont need a catalyst to get to 55600, you almost definitely just have shit artifactsgrind chaos for a little while, if that doesn't get you to 1k then refactor anything with good stats (two silver circles next to the attribute score means good stats)
>>539153109His body in LF was something freshly made. His old body was abandoned when he tried to psychically fuse himself with Nezarec's Pyramid and the Leviathan. There were much better ideas for his boss fight than a big colossus and a big gladiator, but that would have been overdelivery.
>>539153894He should have been the raid boss
>>539152362100% this
>>539154086He should have died in Haunted and Zavala should have been the raid boss, because at least then we'd be spared the humiliation ritual where he retires and formally hands control to Ikora
>>539152362>I actually liked the setpiecesI'll admit the campaign had some kino setpieces, but Neomuna is ugly as sin.And I just realized it's probably going to be the last ever patrol destination where you're able to see other people.
>>539154345Wait, EoF's Kepler still has the Pale Heart problem where you cant see other players? That sucks.
>>539153109Calus was wasted on a story boss fight and nezerec was wasted as a raid boss both deserved better calus was really cool and spooky in season of the haunted
>tfw i can casually do master singularity chaos runs with 5k less than what is required on jolderwhy is she so good
>>539154537Kepler is another solo destination and the first one since Mercury where you can't use a sparrow. Renegades seemingly won't have a destination at all, just a knockoff of a Division Dark Zone on Mars
>>539154738It's going to be extraction shooter destiny
>>539100628I like her more than Estela because she is strong in the backline's and really good for any solo content like Legend speed runs.
I think it's actually over this time
>>539154280>Zavala Raid BossAre you retarded?
Are you building meta characters in Rising or the characters you like? I want to full build Wolf-Kabr-Ikora because it's the original fire-bros-team but if I can't endgame with them...
>>539155302Zavala should have been a Disciple of the Witness during Finale Shape. Dark Zavala could have been hyper cinema
>>539155765unfortunately the game is way too stingy with upgrade mats to justify building meme characters unless you're willing to whale on itthe bright side is you can run any character in non-endgame content and be fine, i've seen ikoras in onslaught
>>539155275I'm login in, I will be the 30 640th
>>539155948would never have happened, bungie wouldn't know kino writing if it raped them
>>539155765>>539156245oh i forgot to mention that before you complete chapter 7-2 you can reset any character and get all their mats back for freeso you can fuck around with meme characters for a while and then finish the story when you're ready to start building good characters

I am one mission into Final Shape and I already don't care for this story.
>>539161801Don't worry anon, it doesn't get any better
>>539162950I didn't bother getting EOF. I've heard it's dogshit, the red legion in reclaim is "muh multiverse but also SIVA is dead and can't be brought back because SIVA is dead" slop, and is seemingly completely disconnected from everything that made me think Destiny 1 was cool when I was a squeaker.
>>539161801I didn't like the Finale Shape campaign at all. And like you, I didn't care about the Crow and the rest of the Vanguard (even Zavala but I think it's because I hated his new voice). Caydes-6 was cool. But it was just about the Vanguard, never about us, the Guardian.Lightfall campaign > Finale Shape
Status?

>>539163494>I didn't care about the CrowI wish I could experience Crow lore because it seemed pretty cool, but I don't even get to see so much as a single fucking cutscene because "lol over half of our story in the past five years is seasonal content that we took out of the game, get raped.">Lightfall campaigne > Finale ShapeUnless FS is truly the worst thing I've played in Destiny, no. Strand is awkward and senseless, Nimbus is a fuckugly quip-machine, and Neotroona is the single worst-looking thing I've seen in Destiny.
>>539163781I will always be hyper nostalgic when I listen to this theme. I liked every single moment, every single character (yeah, even Nimbus, he was sometimes cringe but overall, he was a real bro. And even Osiris, also a real bro teacher)

The greatest evil in the world is a pale, creepy bitch with a chimney for a hairdo. It's garbage. Trash. Filth. I was already mad about this shit earlier in the thread, but I am once again mad about this shit.I thought Beyond Light was alright although the story was a bit lackluster. The Darkness was still enigmatic. Witch Queen was pretty good and looked fantastic but Shitness and Shitness accessories ruined Destiny lore for me. One of the things I thought was cool as fuck was when the three daughters of the osmium king met the worm gods and made their covenant, but guess what? That got Shitness-ified, and Rhulk took a scuba suit to convince the worm gods to be evil, and the worm that told Savota to the depths of their planet was a plant by the Shitness.One of my favorite little tidbits of obscure lore was actually just a psyop devised by Gay Megamind.

I think Cayde is overrated and unfunny. The reveal that he was coming back in TFS actually turned me off from the game more than Lightfall being dogshit did.

Its a shame destiny has to die like this but this is what the developers get for developing a experience and not a videogame

>15k unstable cores just to bring a 400 item to 450tyson green deserves the rope
Hey Hopefags, DoomGAWD just checking in. Are you apologizing yet?
Destiny was raped
>>539161801The campaign in final shape is greatly limited by the fact that it’s still the same old Destiny, it’s all about the Shitness, some encounters are still stomp bullshit on Legendary, Patrol is now single player only unless you have a fireteam I assume, and it’s so badly drawn out. It becomes even more apparent since one of those Destiny campaigns that has lost sectors as campaign missions.
>>539174331>Luke>worked so hard on
>>539175131
>>539174331Lol they’re sleeping comfortably with a couple of bucks in their pocket glad they got in and made some money before the industry further lost its mind. They probably don’t think about. It’s like if we’re to use the numbers Barrett was throwing around in counter suits while could just be high for sake of it, I don’t think it’s crazy to say more higher people did ok with their time at the company. This is like when people wonder what Jason Jones is doing and he’s probably like any other legacy guy at these companies and just collecting checks and nodding at things. These people are some of the luckiest on the planet, for all intents us even having this conversation is an anomaly for how much dysfunction this series had since inception. You can’t make a Destiny killer because no company can blow money on garbage and literal nothing sometimes in 2025 and expect to be standing. Bungie’s saving grace is there’s still enough addicts left and people with deep pockets
>>539176051Money can't fix depression. Luke was Destiny2. It was his life.
>>539170364I think what bums me out is how deliberate it all is, they could’ve left the game being enjoyable and not fuck over so much content and now trying to half ass reintroduce this nonsense rotator. All the while still charging what they do for the game. That’s what hit me when I was doing inventory clean up where I realized, I don’t really need to be so particular with the stuff I’m keeping because it’s not like I’m running all the raids or dungeons calling for different load outs for the task and if I gotta craft something that still holds up I can. Idk it sucks because I liked to help people and run shit, just chill in GMs running different stuff and there’s no real ecosystem for that
>>539176245soul....
>>539164659What you didn’t like the whole “now the statues contain members of the witness race and there’s a conscious dissenter faction we’re only now listening to?” and now Zavala’s ghost is like a big secondary character. I did like some of the trippy dream like cutscenes that gave some personality to the traveler as a force and some of the scenery was fun despite how linear it was but it yet again felt like they didn’t know what the hell do with anything beyond a certain point of what we should know about the traveler. They even had to phone in the whole Micah stuff just to be like uhhh yeah maybe we can do a rehash of Speaker like abilities, and sure Micah was connected in and there’s some bits of old lore that isn’t out of left field but it was just whatever with how little focused on the Traveler as a whole
>playing TFS>Uldren's sad about Amanda dying>meanwhile there is no portion of the game that I can play which shows me Uldren coming back as a guardian, him getting close with Amanda, or Amanda dying>but these details are all in a major expansion questlineIs there a word for this? For bunghole's "fuck you" attitude toward anyone who's even missed a single season, let alone several? The stories could be consistently great in a vacuum but even still they'd be completely ruined by just how much of the story gets locked away after a season finishes.

>>539177905Yeah, it’s called “a woman wrote this”, same as why you’re supposed to see Eramis as even sort of sympathetic despite trying to annihilate humanity twice because she saved Mithrax’s insufferable brat of a daughter offscreen.
>>539178397I was fine at Destiny 2 (before the powercreep fucked me over) but I suck at Destiny Rising, I just can’t into doing the same shooter stuff on a fucking smol screen with two fingers. I feel like a damn chimpanzee fishing for termites or something.>>539179586It’s nice that Oryx remained a real one all the way to the end, even after the Shitness was retconned in to overshadow him and after the most clearcut way to resurrect him was ignored in favour of the convoluted Echoes shit where Savathun can’t seem to decide if he’s the real thing or a copy despite pointing out herself he’s just a Shitness memory.
>>539179412We'll see. Im currently just being neutral to the situation until the epic raid and exotic mission but the fact that you doom"""gods""" are still antagonizing hopeposters is pathetic... have we not been through enough?

Hell Savathun proved that even if there is a powergap between Disciples and Hive Gods, it’s easily reachable with some random bullshit rituals. Feels like the Hive really did get the better end of the bargain, especially after Bungo had to re-retcon Oryx into meeting the actual Winnower and tone down the idea of Savathun being the real leader of the Hive.
>not single Vex milk joke with Maya
>>539167449Because the people on this website suffer from severe mental illness. The mother daughter connection isn't even implied, it is word for word something that Elathi said. >inb4 "that makes it hotter"You know how it works.
>>539182048Maya is too lame to crack jokes.
>>539178501One of the anons unfortunately gave you what Bungie thinks of the whole situation, “you had to be there”. It’s not a good reason at all, but it is the reason why they constantly remove activitiee and stories from the game despite how important the latter is. They know that the on-boarding experience for D2 is terrible, they know that the game struggles at retaining new players, but they haven’t done shit to fix it. As a result the game finds itself in the position now where it’s too overwhelming for newbies and an insulting slap in the face for vets.PS must be blowing their lid knowing that they have Bungie spend large amounts of money for content that is only in the game for like 3 months, 6 months, a year and a half tops before it ends up being permanently removed to keep the filesize small.
>>539182061People whiplash too hard in the other direction and are so paranoid from the way Bungie has treated relationships that they jump at the first sign of a gay shadow. In fairness though, Saint and Osiris were not gay when the they first showed up and are so overwhelmingly saccharine and gay now that even Redditors were getting annoyed during Echoes, so I get any relationship being looked askance at.
>>539182951Tbh I can’t really blame them with how lame and gay they made both Saint and Osiris. Specifically LAME and gay. Imagine current year Osiris being the same object of worship by his cult. Impossible innit?
>>539182773>short lived content This is why it still baffles me that featured loot,recent season bonus was a thing so strictly and only got slightly tuned when people obviously complained. From a business standpoint it makes no sense, if you got content creators saying hey this raid sorta sucks because of how it handles loot and where it fits towards power climb, also it’s gonna be soft sunset in December, congrats you basically disincentivized anybody who didn’t buy in and waited and proved them right, meaning you don’t make any money. This is even more felt with just how so much of the game takes place on Portal stuff and the Kepler shit is whatever- not worth it. They made shit too disposable but fail to realize Destiny doesn’t work like a season of an ARPG
not conquesting
>>539184172well they solved that by making his "cult" a wacky borderlands-humor fanclub where none of them had ever actually met the guy and just wrote fanfic about him. brother vance getting vaulted was an act of mercy, they didn't just assassinate his character they teabagged it tooif osiris shows up in rising he better be as badass as he was built up to be in d1. i don't even care if he's gay, just don't make him a senile retard
>>539185064Bro!
>>539185521This is precisely why I can’t even be mad at /dg/ whiplashing at gay bogeyman in a Bungo IP, they’ve repeatedly proven they enjoy writing gay fanfiction.

>>539179586>it’s been 10 years since I found my first real destiny groupAlmost doesn’t feel real. I wonder what those guys are up to now
The gacha has sucked me in bros, I'm shocked too but I'm having fun and have found the time/price commitments thus far reasonable. However I'm wanting to T6 one of the banner characters, and I'm scared at how much that'd theoretically cost. Is this high asking price common for the genre? I get cosmetics being a rip off but the math for rolls is higher than I expected.
>>539191095borderlands is trash, I forced myself to 100% 2 and the prequel and regret every second
>>539192050It's more forgiving in terms of bad luck protection than a fair few other gacha games, but as for a pure money to pull ratio it's pretty middle of the road I think.
shadowkeep ruined everything
>>539192050>me and my T0 characters
>>539108310>final boss of the universe.
>>539192050It cost me about 100 bucks to T5 Gwynn, but I got lucky with some early pulls.>Is this high asking price common for the genre? I get cosmetics being a rip off but the math for rolls is higher than I expected.Believe it or not, it's actually incredibly generous for the genre. The norm is around 80-90 pulls for pity with a 50/50 chance you get a standard banner character instead. Maxing out characters in other gachas can easily run close to a grand.
>>539191095there's no fucking way that's real

Guys? It's about to get serious. Get ready.
>>539191095LOL based Randy. Literally make your own games chuds. It’s easy right???
Datto and Randy would get along
>>539208926Esoterickk. Tyson Green took the streamer pill and based the entire game around making 50 no life losers happy which he failed at since that can't be done with that AIDS infested audience.TOTAL BUNGIE DEATH SOON!
>>539209286In all seriousness though Bungie did ruin contraverse likely because of Esoterrick often running them. The fucked thing is they’ve practically been shit/underwhelming longer than being spammy and the spammy stuff still present in game kinda blows it out of the water. I get recent changes are in play or coming soon and they’re just ok
>>539196602Just as much as “dungeon like layouts and puzzles” in muh destination
>>539194498What do people mean when they talk about pulls for that game? Do you have to just gamble to actually play different characters or?
>>539209754considering they went and nerfed contraverse hold for no reason that even esoterrick came out and said "what the fuck did you do to my iconic build I've been using since Shadowkeep" only to revert it immediately after I wouldn't doubt this crackpot theory
>>539185521It probably didn’t help that the voice actor died like ages ago

>>539210724That's not what it means moron.
>>539210724Um................you dont live in China so you wouldn't get it chud
>>539210095If you wanna see another glimpse of Bungie falling for it while you gotta dig a little cause it’s like 5+ years ago, look at videos right before Worthy when some theorycrafting out of a pvp discord had content slobs globbing onto “Sanguine alchemy is going to ruin Trials” because back then in its original form, you sit in rift and you get Foetracer marks but it being an ungodly passive way to play, certain maps are whatever for it(only so many entries and exits 3 opposing players can be at) and you’re giving up absurd neutral game stuff to run it, it wasn’t really that scary. I wanna say Cammycakes had the video that people latched to and made their own panic videos and I think he since either deleted or added a re edit that really toned down his frothing autism. And what happened on Worthy’s launch, they fundamentally changed Sanguine to the most worthless piece of shit where you just have more rift timer the more you fight in a rift and Trials got ruined because it a. Wasn’t rewarding, b. People used swords and emotes to peek and the sandbox was so fucky and miserable
>>539209286Esoterick is one of the good ones guy just plays the game and never really tries to influence anyone.
>>539188983What did you do anon? Was it because of the N decal on Ikora? Or did you just say nigger in chat multiple times?

>>539213594@grok can you summarize this into one short sentence?
>>539212791you are quite the checker, mate>https://x.com/DuvalMagic/status/1966953086448185650
>>539192050It's $100-$200 to max dupe your first 5* and then double that cost for any subsequent 5*s because all the first-time bundles will be goneIf you haven't played a gacha before, it's important to note that they release new characters very frequently, with most of them being DPS characters who are slightly more powerful than the last DPS character, so characters like Gwynn and Estela are going to get powercrept very very quickly, so spending money to max out a launch-day DPS character is a trap. It's better to invest in damage buffers like Tan-2 and Umeko or tanks like Jolder, and maybe not max them out all the way but at least pick up their important upgrades.

Tuesday reset will save the game.if it doesn't, the TWID on Thursday will save the game.if it doesn't, Xur on Friday will save the game.if it doesn't, the raid refresh and Exotic Mission will save the game.if it doesn't, the End of Season event will save the game.if it doesn't, Renegades will save the game.if it doesn't, the following Major Updates and dlcs will save the game.if it doesn't, Destiny 3 announcement will save the game.if it doesn't, I will sell my soul to the devil in exchange for Destiny to be saved.
Can someone explain Rising artifacts to me? I understand that weapons need Mystic Perks/Exotic Mods for max power, I understand Artifacts need all 4 to be exotics, but past that I don't understand what the fuck I'm meant to do to get the most power out of them, besides getting them to +10 of course.
hello everyone, yes i am retarded
>>539215548>if it doesn't, I will sell my soul to the devil in exchange for Destiny to be saved.this actually already happened. someone made a wish for destiny to be saved and the ahamkara twisted the wish by saving it with a gacha
>>539214148I’d worry more about fixing D2 if I were you instead of posting here, mystery Bungie employee. You don’t want the studio to go through another round of layoffs, do you?
Which Rising exotic needs its catalyst the most? Is it Huckleberry?
Can Marathon just release and fail already so Bungie can go back to Destiny?
>>539216393lole I think everyone at this point is wanting this, just wish Bungie can cut its losses and focus back on destiny

>>539215267oh my sweet sweet summer child
>>539216616I need to read up on the lighting changes to refresh my memory. What was the reason because D1 absolutely mogs D2 nowadays graphically and that's just unacceptable to say about an 11 year old game.
>>539217043art design. they lost many, many staff who worked on d1/halo
Being a Destiny fan in 2025 and looking back on The Taken King is like being a Kanye fan in 2025 and looking back on Graduation and MBDTF
>>539216616i don’t understand why games from a decade ago look better than games now it genuinely boggles my mind
I have this meme build I been messing with on reclaim at level that is so fun i wanna share. I call it overkill. Its not but I just love stacking debuffs and buffs like its going out of style. Lots of shit on the stove but really its just a point shoot profit kinda build.1 Solar Auto. Ahab is best here.2 Swarmer exotic to get your threadlings to debuff and make tangles.3 Artifact mods: Overload Auto, Fever and Chill, Pack Tactics, Cauterized Darkness, Radiant Shrapnel4 Prismatic facets: Facet of Isolation, facet of courageShoot them in the FACE! You exhaust and sever them and generates threadlings that debuff enemies with unravel then it buffs your auto via Cauterize and Courage and Radiant with solar submunitions. Try it with a ahab with Binary Orbit and it go stupid or maybe high impact reserves? Just start shooting and the left side of your screen lights up with half a dozen timers. It's goofy.
>>539217402Bad analogy. Ye never got worse, you must be a jew.
>>539217402all my niggas nazis nigga heil Hitler
>>539210724>use energy to get rewards at the end of an activity>or use energy to get rewards after some time without going an activity>all while doing something else>somehow it is a bad thingI'm not even mentioning that most Iron Commander stuff is locked behind both high power and high acclaim. You can use this to restock on some basic resources you currently lack but without having to go personally into the activity that rewards them.
>>539180653>playing rising on a mobile deviceWhy?
>>539216393Sony themselves are probably hoping for this to happen too. There’s zero chance that it makes back its 100 million dollar budget, and the costs went up too because they had to delay it indefinitely.
>>539181439Holy shit I almost forgot that engrams used to go in your equipment inventory
>>539217043It’s lighting on a technical level, but it’s also just artistry and talent. D1 has this beautiful painterly look that highlights the melancholic and haunting atmosphere of these golden age ruins, there’s a lot more attention paid to the colours, the shading, the contrast. Destiny 2 is a colder, cleaner, more sterile looking game. It’s sharper, but less dynamic. Certain environments play to these strengths, like the Braytech facilities or Neomuna, but every time they try to port an environment from D1 it looks worse because the game’s art style is just not tuned to those designs anymore. Then you throw in the exodus of talent and the reduced budget, timelines, QA, etc and you just get something that looks shoddier, less polished, and less impressive. The D2 Cosmodrome is especially bad because they basically gave up on delivering it and just made an MVP, whereas in D1 it was the keystone destination that they probably put the most into during development.
>>539211902>Was it because of the N decal on IkoraFuck can I get banned for that? I better take it off lmao I don't even play ikora
>>539218203No I actually don't know just kidding.
>>539217043>>539217396>>539218152They also further fucked up the lighting in beyond light
>>539217857not him but playing on the phone with auto shooting feels pretty nice imo.Doing the crab shit with your hands hurts like a bitch after a little while and unless your phone has digital triggers on the side i don't see the point of having a dedicated shoot button, taking a shit takes a few minutes longer but it's great i can just pull out my phone and have the full Destiny experience on the go.
>>539217416Deranged trannies and leftists now make up the majority of art and design positions and they project their lack of soul onto everything they touch. It started 10 years ago and Destiny is a prime example of how the replacement of talent ruined a once good foundation.
>>539218986What's auto shooting? Last time I played a mobile fps game it was the worst thing ever, and I assume they're made with the intention of you getting one of those controllers you can mount your phone on or whatever. It might be time for me to pick one up 'cause I do kinda miss being able to lay on my couch or whatever and play games.
All my niggas guardians nigga heil speaker
>>539219169it actually is crazy that when a game is made by majority straight white men, including Christians (Marty) how much better the game is. It’s unbelievable. Faggots and trannies and atheists really do ruin everything.
>>539219169Is destiny also a prime example of what happens when you eventually let fans of an IP end up on the development team, fans who aren't inspired by all of what went into inspiring the product but the product itself? I'm just making shit up but I feel like this might the case.
the trans Destiny community will save the game :3
https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2025/09/15/my-motivation-to-play-destiny-2-hit-zero-24-hours-after-ash-and-iron/Tassbros, we have new talking points to parrot
>>539210724No, it's you can even play it when you sleep. Incredibly based.
>>539219804Who exactly is this guy and when did he become a major critic of destiny 2? I don't remember him during the shadowkeep era, just curious. He seems like he's posted here at some point.
>The Speaker in destiny Rising is a 10/10 Chinese cutie
>>539220134He's the main gaming journalist at Forbes. He's usually a corpo dicksucker but he flipflops positions a lot probably to try to retain some dignity (it didn't work).
>>539220134he's the guy Bungie hates
D2 doesn't look like shit all the time!
>>539220134He's literally the only guy talking about Destiny
>>539220134He used to shill Bungie pretty hard, but the latest updates are so fucking retarded that even he in their right mind couldn't defend them. He also wrote a scathing article a year ago about the Destiny: Rising alpha test, but when the full game dropped, he had the balls to admit that he was wrong about the game, and it is actually better than whatever shit Bungie cooked (not a high bar to reach, I know).
I'm assuming if these last 4 months didn't get you to stop playing Destiny, you're just gonna be here until the servers shut off no matter what Bungie shit's out?
>>539220568if you want to see an even worse state of the game, take a time machine back to the time between Taken King and Rise of Iron

>>539220656This post was sponsored by NUBungie
>>539220656actually kinda pretty fuckin true, damn.
>>539220656not a chance, destiny still had potential then. it's a wet fart now.
>>539220568It's it's just a fake outrage.>I farmed 500 light level and I hated it>I played 150 Reclaim and I found the problemNo, you liked it, that's why you did it. Literal clickbait.
>>539220820he means that it was one of the worst content droughts if not the worst in the game's entire history. the taken king was a very good expansion, yea, but it wasn't built to carry the game for an entire year straight since they sunset a bunch of shit that would have kept people busy for way longer
>>539220518>nitpickingKill yourself
>>539217732iron commander has 10% more drops and higher exotic chances so it's always better than playing the activity normally, but i want to play the activity normally because the game is fun. it's fine as a timesaver, but it shouldn't have better rewards, because right now the most efficient way to play is spending half your daily energy on idling
>>539220820I agree that sentiment for the next DLC was still high, but 7 straight months of literal nothing, with SRL being a limited time event in the middle, we're lucky we even get seasonal updates.but the main difference as you pointed out is that the big thing to look forward to now is less enticing than before
>>539220656LOL nice try faggot! The Taken King's system changes alone were enough of a reason to play for months, looking back the Dreadnaught's lack of loot barring the new artifacts was an issue though. Plus Bungie gave you Eververse loot boxes for free instead of jewing you out of every nickel they can.
>>539220409It's funny because Griffin sobbed the loudest when his ass got sent packing.
>>539220409>Literally create a character and base it off CrossYou don't even register bro!
>>539219181The game basically shoots when you point the crosshair on an enemy so you don't have to press a button or pull the trigger, it frees up your index fingers and lets you grab the phone and play with only your thumbs, add gyro and you'll be doing some serious damage on Shifting Gates/Iron Bar vs players.It's NOT auto-aim (even though the phone version has really strong-ass bullet magnetism) you still have to aim your shots and it works surprisingly well since basically all weapons can be shot as if they had full auto
>>539220409>Yet another "I GIVE UP" shitpost by dattolmao isn't this like the 5th time he's done this?, he really is tranny-brained
>>539217043Around that point in gaming you had a lot of companies specifically doing short cuts of going way heavy on sources of light especially on environments(see how Altar of Flame map had vex lights in the walls and the big ass sun blowing everything out),overuse of dynamic lighting in halls and tunnels, , layers of environmental particle fx filter, and other bullshit. Bungie knowing the game would be on multiple platforms, hardware and settings went over board on this because it's a very easy shortcut to make the game "feel more cinematic", "look intense" by just globbing splattered shit all over for everyone and *not* giving people an option to really meaningfully tone shit down. There's also that fart sniffing "look at this beautiful painting of an environment" aspect where sure something could have a lot going on in it and look cool, but often it's from not the first person perspective and it's where stuff kinda feels a bit janky and cluttered. Color correction goes out the window sometimes too with way too much clashing shit that blends into the environment, if you ever played Shittered Throne at various FPSs, you feel like you're taking a weird eye exam.
>>539220656I have been through the ups and downs since Forsaken (I know, not an alpha vet but still a long time and a lot of change) and last Tuesday was my breaking point, I uninstalled. I literally went back to playing Destiny 1 on PS5, it’s the only existing product that still resembles what I want the game to be.
>>539222695>Forsaken see you Tuesday reset zoomie
>>539222492These videos probably do better than anything else he posts, and he needs all the Adsense money he can get before the game is shut down.
>>539222695You'll be reinstalling to check Eververse in the next week
>>539222856I bought Edge of Fate, played it for a couple days, couldn’t even drag myself to the end of the campaign because it was so fucking boring. Dropped it for two months, logged in for like 3 days in late August, watched the stream and uninstalled. It’s honestly been over for me since about Revenant, this was just me pulling the bandaid off.
>"oh, oh it's like that okay"CUTEplease consider looking forward to my quirkchunguswifes next story:https://youtu.be/DuJXqw4xgCc?si=SyXGWTyDZBw16iP8
>>539222959>He's already jumping ship
>>539222959Please understand, he needs to fund his wife's midlife crisis road trips across Europe
This version of jolder is the only thing bungie ever did right
>>539223969>Bungie's Destiny kills the cute white woman warrior>Netease's Destiny makes said cute white woman warrior an actually badass character that makes me cream everytime i see herBungie sucks.
>give her 2 launcher weapons with 1 ammo capacity each, ensuring she spends more time reloading than shooting and that no one will ever play herbased racist Chinese devs
>>539221053this is worse than content drought though
>>539224438Yeah it's pretty obvious NetEase was forced by Bungie to add her to the game or else they wouldn't get the license.Too bad they can do whatever the fuck they want with the game after they get the license so your stupid bald nigger chimp mascot gets turned into shit.
>Why didn't my Ghost simply leave the Siva replication chamber before i allah ackbar'd myself?
>>539224438>>539224734The first thing they have her do is kill Crota's sister the same day she discovered The Hive. When Rad and Saladin roll up for the final mission out of everyone they bring her to complete their fireteam. The Chinese know why she is and what she is and what she can do. They literally had her shooting novas out of each hand in the last mission. Did you guys even play it?
>>539225545have you considered that the ghost was dead by then?
>>539225620>They literally had her shooting novas out of each hand in the last missionShe did that in the first Red War mission too, so it isn't the chinks exaggerating anything
I haven't played for months and I have a question. If you hit the max level do you get something? An emblem, banner, skin, shader anything? Any kind of reward for going that far?
>>539225545>I'm supposed to believe this is her
Where the fuck was Wolf when the iron lords fell anyway?
>>539225934Still a skeleton moron.
Yeah I know that the game is collapsing into an inescapable death spiral and Bungie has lost all of its talent and the game is about to release a Star Wars crossover expansion and they’ve replaced the entire gameplay loop with portal grinding and there is essentially no hope of reversing any of this, but have you considered that we used to have to wait a while for new content back when the IP was in its absolute peak?
>>539227079problem was I actually wanted to do the content that padded out the wait
>>539224438She has a very kino signature
>>539227079there was 1 time there was a big year long wait and its all because they fucked up and delayed D2
>>539225863Xister they didn't even give us a shader for tower vendors breaking a literal idk 8 year cycle? Bungie was banking to put so much on Marathon that people wouldn't keep noticing shit
>a mobile game is not only better than Destiny 2, but it's the best looter shooter MMORPG released in the past 5 yearsHow in the FUCK did they do it?!
>>539227415>misusing wordsKill yourself
>>539227464Sorry, retard they didn't add shit, enjoy the grind please buy silver
how the fuck am i supposed to get to 64k? do i need a full set of exotic artifacts?
I didn't realize that Rising had native, automatic KBM support on Netease's emulator. The licensing agreement has to be the only reason there isn't an actual client.
>>539224438I like Ikora though and I think she's a decent character
Guardian ghosts resilience seems to waver solely on the writers whims.Killing Cayde's ghost was a monumental task and they only had one shot at it but other times Guardians get perma killed like it's nothing in the lore.
CABAL'S WAAAAAAAAAAAATCH
>>539227735full set of exotic godroll gets you to 68kits a gacha, you're not meant to be minmaxed by the second week. relax and you'll get BiS gear eventually.
this feels more insulting than giving me nothing
>>539227436Turns out that extremely high budget looter shooters that try to be le revolutionarily next gen in every aspect don't really work out that well, and all it takes is some chinese boys making a decent game with a sizeable amount of content, a reason to return to that content, and all of the basic necessities an FPS RPG looter game needs to be considered a video game. Things like actual rewards from doing something, a bunch of different modes, dialogue, NPCs and unique characters you actually get to see do things and not just stand around to occasionally yap in one of 3 budget cutscenes bungie was able to make for that year, a story, actual worldbuilding done in the game itself and not on the developer's website, etc.
>Destiny Rising gonna be Mobile Game of the YearWe are living in the weirdest timeline
Those are not the right banners...
Was this update really supposed to keep us around until renegades
>>539230953Yup, havin’ fun?
>>539230125>house of wolves???
>>539230953There are 22,000 people playing on Steam now during work time. At this point I am convinced many of you will eat literal shit if I put the Destiny logo on it
>>539225923More believable than it being Felwinter
>>539227893the trickster just waited until it materialized and shot it I just take it that a lot of our enemies don't understand that they have to break our phylactery to defeat us
Um.................Hype?
>>539230953no, it was supposed to keep people until marathon released
>>539231970Iron Banner tomorrow, it's always hype, the first of the EoF era
>>539227893I thought it was always that they can be destroyed and don't really need anything special but excessive force but that they're just hard to actually hit
>>539229659It'll have to compete with Warframe on Android later this year.
>>539231940he was going to shoot cayde but when sundance came out he flicked to her instead
Is Rising doing well in China? Are chinks into the Destiny aesthetic or is it not anime enough for them?
>>539232089>brown minigameGlim
>>539232450isn't it #1 app for now?
Been gone a while...WTF do I do? This BS is UNPLAYABLE. Did Bungo TORPEDO D2 with this gay Portal idea or something?
>>539232572Stop playing.
>>539232572Uninstall never come backLet this game die
>>539232119Is it a completely new game with new missions, new stories, new frames or just literally warframe on mobile?
>>539232485Saladin will always be top based
>It takes 18 days of play time to level from 500-550It seems ok
>>539233179>18 days playing the same slop just for artificial power that will be irrelevant in the next season
>>539233179how does this work?
>>539232242If he shot Cayde, he would've just waited for Sundance to come out to rez him. He didn't think Cayde would be retarded enough to summon her in the middle of a fight
I never understood the Allison typed from my ipad meme
>>539233394You keep earning one, two or maybe three (for the longest activities) +1 engrams for completions and occasional +1 prime engrams that may or may not go to the slot you need, and you have 8 slots to reach 550 in each. Have fun.
I want more female characters, more villains and allies.
>>539233609it was a thorn bullet so cayde would have died either way but he went for the +1
I want more eververse content
>>539232887The full game ported to mobile, it's already live on iOS with an inferior version which will likely be upgraded soon.
Why does the Submersion crossbow have a different season symbol in its thumbnail?
>>539234204They're lazy and probably had to pull it from something else.
>>539233803She's a retarded boomer
>>539220134He's been around for a long time, he was on that Fireteam Chat Destiny podcast from IGN for years.
>>539234069I probably would have bought siva stuff if it was in eververse this season
>>539234418Oh
>>539233803Because apple is the ultimate symbol of far-right capitalism techbros (facebook, twitter, chatgpt, reddit, etc.) who live among themselves in their little bubble, think it's so cool to buy a $5000 iphone and think they understand the world and have influence over it.
i miss the minigame radio guys...
>>539234817STOP ASKING FOR SIVA CHUDSIVA IS DEAD!SIVA. IS. DEAD.
>>539233919>but he went for the +1This is the logical choice, since if something went wrong with the Thorn bullet, Cayde would've just been rezzed and ready to fight again. Whereas there's still a good chance of killing Sundance even if the bullet somehow got fucked
Calus VA plays the big guy in BL4
>>539231514Bingle didn't even decide to make Felwinter an exo until a few years ago.
>>539234986That won't stop the fact that siva fucked your wife dmg
uh oh melty
>>539235062I prefer his roles to be a little more... GRIZZLED
>>539234923But Apple is the platform for normies though. If anything chuds use Android and Linux.
>Focused Feedback: how are the player numbers these days?
>>539235062Nice, I thought they were just ripping him off but that's kino.
>>539235983Nta but only leftist faggots use android and Linux. Chuds use iPhones, Macs, and windows.
'eard
not looking good
>>539236619We still have the stadia audience which is all that matters
>>539236464If that were true you wouldn't have the whole platform shaming that niggers and other poors tend to do from their iPhone 4s to people running Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 androids. Chuds are actually smart and don't like being corralled by their software.
>>539236619lol epic
>While the exact details of Sony’s deal to acquire Bungie remain unknown to the public or employees, sources say they were told by leaders that the current split board structure is contingent on Bungie meeting certain financial goals. If Bungie falls short of certain financial thresholds by too great an amount, Sony is allowed to dissolve the existing board and take full control of the company.reminder
>>539236713Those aren't real chuds, obviously the blacks use the old and cheap iPhones that they can get from boost mobile.
>>539236958>the company's independence hinges on a casual lgbt extraction shooter with stolen art and no voice chat in 2025This is funny and deserved.
>>539236958too bad that'll never happen cause Bungie will stop this ship from sinking and add turbo engines so we can fly high in the sky with Destiny.#Destiny3#IWantToBelieve#X-Files#TheTruthIsOutThere
They're going to ruin Iron Banner with avant-garde, aren't they?
>>539236619grim
>>539237517Yeah, or something even dumber.
>mfw Iron Banner: Gambit
We are so back
Please, IB with that new Medieval modifier.
>>539236619grim. ghastly. ghoulish.
>tfw we will never get Infected but with SIVAThis shit would be so easy to make and fun, but Bungie hates us even more than they hate SIVA so it will never happen.
>>539236619>New hyper update in Genshin Impact>Destiny Rising>New hyper update in Path of Exile>New Legion remix in WoW>New hyper update in Warframe soonDestiny 2 has no chance of shining, and only the help of the Force, without irony, can make a difference.
>>539238806up next for me is Skate, then BF7, then Arc Raiders and that should hold me over until the new poe season
>pull the decal from the bright engrams>okay whatever it's ugly as fuck but at least it's in my season collection now and i can get some luminas from it>check my collection, it's not there>to add it to the collection i have to polish it>to polish it i have to pull the glow for it>24% chance to pull something decal-related, 10% chance to pull the glow specifically, 2.4% chance total>okay whatever that's annoying but i can probably manage that over the course of the season>but wait, there's a 60% chance that the polish will fail>and if it fails the glow is consumed and you have to pull another copyholy shit the decal system is so incredibly fucking jewish. who's even going to whale on this? none of the decals look good enough to be worth it
>>539238510>SIVA attacks tower or w/e>turns an entire district into SIVA zombies somehow>you must go into the quarantine zone and stop it from spreading>there are regular SIVA zombies and some alpha SIVA zombies that are strongers>you now have a human fodder type enemy for the first time in destiny>can be used in a ton of fun ways and could be fun to blast in thick hordes>you now have the chance to have a new infection pvp game mode It's that easy
>>539239002I’ve been ignoring the decals and will continue to do so
>>539239002>who's even going to whale on this?Never underestimate them. I love them, it's thanks to them that I can play kino games for free
>>539239076This would cost millions of dollars for bungie
>>539239861Why?
>>539240000It would cost millions of dollars to just rebuild wrath of the machine alone. Now you're wanting all of that with a new human enemy type? Not happening.
>>539240000Think of the knitting classes and estrogen injection costs, anon.
>>539240000admirin' those digits
>>539236619>32k PS>20k XBOX>15k PC>1k MISCfucking grim. I want to see these numbers on the slower days
Payday 2 won...
>reddit wants to boycott Iron BannerI really don't know if they're serious and think Bungie gives a fuck about them, or if it's just upvote farming to feel important, I guess.
>>539242086I was already planning on not playing out of spite, this will be easy.
They're just gonna keep adding more and more quests and dialogue, old and new characters in Rising, aren't they? They aren't gonna delete any of it from the game, are they?
>>539241531can you tell those faggot devs on The Finals to drop that piece of shit and make a new Mirrors Edge game
>this would cost bungie millions of dollars
>>539242086>boycott iron banner>BIBlol they are children
>>539242416Yes, I'd like to know if Rising is a real hit outside of /dg/ and Reddit. That's the only thing that matters to them, and therefore to us too. If it's on par with Genshin and Diablo Immortal, we're good—we'll keep getting high-quality content every two weeks for years to come.
Nezarec tea
>>539242551EA still has the rights, unfortunately. They should make a spiritual successor but give nu-Faith huge tits.
>>539243251What happened with diablo immortal? I thought it ended up being terrible
>>539243251It has more downloads than Genish and Diablo on iOS, at the moment. It's probably doing very well.
>splicers are the first major threat you face in the game, they're only generic tech cultists because they haven't found siva yet>jolder's questline is about helping felwinter stop self-replicating golden age nanobotsnetease knows siva is a fan favorite so they're not gonna blow their load too early. they'll keep gradually dropping more hints and hyping it up until they announce a siva season with the real plaguelands and playable felwinter. trust the plan, i am not being ironic.
>>539097893Soon
>>539244337
>>539243851>I thought it ended up being terribleNo, it's literally the best Diablo game right now, tons of content every week, mega update each month, new classes, new event
>>539244446Was it just a rough launch?
>>539243947Imagine if they just fucking drop an entire season of siva like the one people used to make mock-ups for.Bungie would never fucking recover.
>>539243947>>539244628One of the conditions to acquiring the license was they were NEVER allowed to do anything with SIVA. That's why they dance around it with nanomachine talk.
>>539244547>a rough launchAre you serious? Diablo Immortal was a phenomenal success from the start. It was (and still is) good for the players and it made (and still makes) tons of dollarino for the companies.People mocked the BlizzCon announcement because no one knew what to expect, and everyone was disappointed that Diablo 4 hadn't been announced. But as soon as the game became playable, all the imaginary complaints died down because it was obvious that the game wasn't a little candycrush version of Diablo on mobile, but rather a AAA game on mobile (and PC) like Genshin.
odds of them literally saying ANYTHING? the radio silence is amazing but i also want some more posts to laugh at
>>539245248Yeah I'm serious, I don't play diablo and all I remember hearing back when it released was a bunch of diablo fans bitching nonstop. That's why I'm asking.
>>539245248ok shill
>>539245334No chance of any communication until December, the earliest.
>>539245334"We have partnered with our Senators from the state of Washington to pass a bill mandating hope for the future, banning negative sentiment about Destiny 2, and for all citizens of the United States to clock in 8 hours of Destiny 2 each day. Outreach programs will begin phased activation of this directive to the EU in early 2026."
>>539245334Maybe something tomorrow around reset, but odds are the TWAB will have another classic DMG 'we'we wissening guise pwease be patient making gawmes is hawd' and that'll be it
>>539245334>the radio silence>live stream>TWAB>dmg hyper active on nazitercome on bro, stop your fake outrage
>They didn't even have a roadmap ready for RenegadesPeople are being paid to work at Bungie???
>>539246179if you think that's bad, wait till you figure out what Cozmo does.hint: nobody fucking knows to this day.
>>539246508he's a community manager for Marathon
>>539246508I still think he's got pest dirt on Trainman or other higher ups to blackmail for an essential no show job. He's probably got a folder of like those very 2000s pictures where it's like Kirsten Dunst playing Super Smash on Gamecube in 2002 but this time it's like Epstein drinking Game Fuel Mt Dew on a green X360 branded couch or something. I also have some very strong suspicions he's running a lot of sock puppet accounts on the Destiny reddt, or at least orchestrating some autism behind the scenes because there are just the most argumentative idiots on there saying just complete fiction "oh 10-400 acktually is just like how getting to pinnacle cap always was, it's not that long", Reclaim is giving me tons of loot you have a skill issue and bad rng, I get BDFs are totally fucked in the head and it's better than stripping car batteries in Bangalore but something about that wing of Destiny community online is just extra sinister to a manufactured level.
>>539223809At least he’s smart enough to read the writing on the wall, because he needs Rising videos to pad out the abysmal state of current D2.
>>539247301yeah okay Cozmo
>>539247639His content is worse than the current state of Destiny. Nigga needs to take those nails off, it's creepy.
the Destiny and Lucasfilm collab will go both ways, we will see a Destiny-inspired Star Wars movie
>>539248483We did already it was called The Acolyte
>>539247639Too late for him, comedic variety content 2nd channel has been a failure, he's not amicable for the business and only figured this out at the wrong time
>>539248748Easy 50k views any day now
>>539248902is his nose accentuated here or is it actually that Jewish
>>539248902I remember him saying that and i'm like, hrmmm I get Datto is kinda popular in terms of Destiny, but I don't see him having some bizarre mass appeal or anything bigger outside of this shit.
damn he couldn't take it anymore...I'll always remember you D2 enjoyer bro
>>539249369>i miss d-ACK
good fucking lord
>>539245140>source: it was revealed to me in a vision from the traveler
>>539244628bungie is allergic to doing anything that would be successful
>>539242787Could you imagine the amount of jeets they would have to hire to outsource the development a barely working AI? Literally millions and too much work for their small indie studio.
>>539247569I often see lots of really weird comments, like people insisting the game must be played for fun only, and 'if your idea of fun is getting highest power and best possible loot, well, fuck you, you can still play old raids and have fun in them'. There are also people who insist that the last 400-450/500-550 grind wasn't really that bad, not like the old pinnacles. The absolute gem was someone saying that they were a solo player but started playing with friends, and the game genuinely became fun, for real. It's as if I haven't witnessed personally how the game was going from Forsaken to EoF. Other interesting comments I see are about new gear, points and difficulty. Apparently the new gear modifier is not really restrictive, its score, damage and DR bonuses are insignificant and overblown, and if you don't want every single mission giving you more power to be a CBT session with retarded GM-tier modifiers slapped on everything, that's on you because you are a whiner who wants loot on a silver platter for doing nothing.I give the honorary BDF retard award to the person who tried to defend the bugged weekly challenge. There was a now-autocompleted challenge that required you to kill champions in Vanguard Ops, Crucible and Gambit that never progressed in the Portal, and some idiot started to whine that people only want everything to be easy and without any effort, without paying attention to the fact that the challenge was tied to old ritual activities that are absolutely abandoned for the sake of the portal, the commenter literally said 'it's ok that the challenge doesn't work in the portal, if you want power, go to the portal, if you want the challenge, go into vanguard ops'.
>>539243947Bungie won't allow netease to use SIVA they absolutely hate support studio content.
>>539251567Sorry, I got it wrong, it was 'heavy ammo kills in Vanguard ops, Crucible or Gambit'. Still very broken to the point Bungie autocompleted it for everyone.
>>539250245Yeah, that emote is a must have for me
>>539250245I wish I was a Lightbearer so she could choke me to death with her thighs, revive me, and do it over and over again...
>Koregos' Contest Mode Final Stand has the same amount of HP as Normal Rhulk's entire non-Final Stand HP bar.>If you wanted to clear Contest TDP you had to be able to one-phase Rhulk.yeah I probably would've cheated, too.
>>539256274chasing streamerslop has been a disaster for bungie
>>539256274I mean just the fact alone a contest completion required taking advantage of some aggressive swaps and a setup of LoW getting added ammo on the basis of a bug really sums it all up. How bungie didn’t say a fucking thing about that or no light bulb went off and they pushed that through is ridiculous. Like gratz? you impressed a bunch of autists who think fucking around in menus is entertaining. The whole thing was just rancid
>>539256798>Try to make content more "watchable">Streamers: "We're not going to show any of the content because of scouts"Glad Bungie finally got so assblasted about that they made a custom overlay and made streaming at least one PoV mandatory.
The epic raid could be the redemption arc for bungie
>>539258905Bungie's only redemption arc was in Halo 2 development. A scenario most of us know far too well.
>>539251567I know the types all too well. I have one absolute dick rider clan mate who constantly defaults to the cheap cop out of “uhm the community doesn’t know what they want” and that means Bungie’s done nothing wrong,everything makes sense especially in this DLC. They were getting mad when I pointed how the idea of soft sunsetting a brand new and only raid of the entire year of Destiny originally was completely ridiculous and basically gave people way less reason to buy in if they jumped on late because of how lessened the loot would be, and that doesn’t even go into how the power sources and all the other botched stuff is with it. But yeah people defending padding the leveling and saying it’s some mark of dedication and skill or has a justified existence need their heads checked. They also always seem to be quiet how we don’t have any tower vendor cosmetics off rewards tracks or how so much of the game just doesn’t exist in the new system
>>539258905the epic raid is going to be an epic failure
>>539259341Que? Halo2 development was a notorious shitshow, and the trailer for it included nothing that made it to launch. Where's my dmr? Halo2 pvp was qhat saved that game, people hated the campaign when it came out. Halo3 development was Bungie's rise to glory. Live action trailers, a return to HaloCE art direction, etc.
>>539258905No bullshit I think we are at that copium depression level red mini game fans walk around with “play the game that we have” except in this case it’s not a subject of ammo spawn or weapon number values but like the entire game is just total dog shit and I don’t think much is going to really fundamentally pull it out. If bungie commits to this level grind and anemic levels of stuff to do, I’d be surprised if we even have a game in a year or two
>gambit dies>whole game follows soon afterOpen your eyes to the truth
>>5392602733 was also kind of a shitshow given that it had Marty doing rewrites while Staten was off doing something else

>>539250245Negative ass, what the fuck are you "Good fuckin lord"ing about, retard.
I havened played since season of the splicer in Beyond Light - that shit was a lot of fun.
>>539265045a non white typed this
this is the stupid shit i do to liven up the d2 experience
>>539237197It’s still mind blowing that Bungie was so certain that Marathon’s reboot in name only would save the company, and that they could quickly move onto it while leaving D2 in maintenance mode. Even if it wasn’t for the stolen art controversy, the most people had to say about it was that it was okay at best. It would honestly be a miracle if Sony doesn’t cancel it, because they did the same to Concord despite having 4 times the budget.
>>539265064The game has gotten immeasurably worse bro please stay away for your own good
would you rather have a CM who 'ears and 'asses along your complaints, or would you like a CEO that tells you to cope and kill yourself unironically if the game is performing poorly for you.feel like if it'd be pretty funny if we had a Randy CEO for Bungie
Even the most hardcore autistic virgin I know has stopped playing, it’s fucking over
If you played destiny 2 after the content ""vault"" YOU were part of the problem and deserve everything bad that happened to you

>>539241531Uuuuhhhhhh... I think it's... Caustic Soda.........NO! WAIT!
>>539268087>join d2 during the worst expansion>live long enough to see an even worse expansion
>Destiny: Rising is only a week old, but the game is already poised to become a big commercial success for NetEase.>it would make sense for bungie to add a Destiny: Rising-themed collaboration to Destiny 2 at some pointThis, this, this. You want tons of new players in destiny2? Invite the Rising players to test it, do a big crossover event, give goodies in both games and voila, you saved D2
>>539270052Bungie's too prideful to even acknowledge the game's success, they only did a passing mention like a day after it launched and it was barely boosted in the algorithm. Instead they put all their attention on that dumb TWID where they said they were making things worse.
>>539270052It won't work. The global chat in Rising actually gets use, and any time somebody mentions they might try D2, a chorus of no less than half a dozen Guardians cut in with "don't; it's way worse than this" and "bungie are retarded", then it's doomposting or "we need to get X in D2" posting for the next 20 minutes.By this point, Rising players are either D2 Refugees looking for solace from Bungie's horseshit, or they're actively being warned by the former category to not play.
>>539270052>give goodies in both gamesbest we can do is an emblem that you have to watch three hours of a twitch stream for.

>>539272057I completed the challenges weeks ago but I barely even feel like redeeming it on D2, already uninstalled it actually.
>>539272306same lmaojust looking at the login screen makes me ill
>>539272057>>539272306i just gave mine away in the thread desu
>24 hour peak is... 24KGoddamn. There's no way they can keep this up until december sheesh
Doom gods we can’t stop winning
I almost can't believe that they found a way to make Edge of Fate even worse.
>Got JotunnI will now play as Dynasty Warriors man
>>539271146>Decides to quit his professional career like a year or two before destiny shits the bed almost completelyEvery day he must be feeling existential dread.
>>539276579Maybe he can take dmg's job as lead faggot shill.
>>539276395lol, he's good desu and people will remember you
>get the Chushingura side arm while fishing>no characters that can equip itWell fuck me I guess, time to roll for Gwynn
LET BUNGIE COOK!
>>539268617Why do you niggas always go to gachaslop games
>>539180707Any and all Bungie enablers deserve more than whatever hell they're going through. However much pain, misery, agony, despair; it can never be enough, until they step from The Deep(tm) and Into The Light(tm).
Is Serrated Bolts just shit on the crossbows? Retrieving two bolts does less than an unpowered melee.
Because Asian gacha are more human and player friendly than American videogame companies
>>539270387In fairness, there's another reason why the vets in the Rising chat aren't recommending D2 to potentially interested players, and its because the New Light experience is bugged to shit. So even if they're enjoying Rising and want to support the mainline series, the experience is so suboptimal that it's not even worth it.
>>539279902We shouldn't hate the game, we should hate bungie.
Has anyone tried using a Japanese VPN with Rising to top up in yen and get better prices? Will I get banned?
>>539280490If you alternate between Japan and wherever you actually live, in my opinion, a warning about “suspicious activity on your account” will eventually pop up at some point. But that's just my uninformed opinion.Is the saving large?
>>539270387all of these points are correct
>>539276635THE WHITE TIGER HAS CULTIVATED HOS FUSION SPIRIT IN A WAVE OF FALLENIGGER BLOOD
>>539281364It's about 20%, which isn't huge but is a nice discount if you're springing for the $100 pack. Anyway, turns out they're wise to the trick and bumped up yen prices to be more expensive than USD, so I guess I'll pay in full and cope with my 10 worthless Google Play Credits.
>>539279902Disgraced?
>>539279587Bungie made crossbows and decided they wont be boss weapons, or ad clear weapons, but a fucking novelty. They are like traces to specials, they’d be better off as special weapons or they need major buffs
Contest Mode = I sleepNow if you want a real challenge make the streamer scum do a day 1 raid on PS4 with no SSD. Now that might be watchable!
>>539285717Contest watching has always been boring ,I am not surprised slobs buy Star Wars cosmetics when they tune in the whole time to go watch people idly talk and bash head against wall for hours on end. Saying this as somebody who’s done a lot of the contests,I don’t think it’s particularly interesting even when you’re figuring shit out. Although I could get the appeal when people have freak outs and you see the dark side of Matics
>>539271146Trashtics would call a dog turd that’s been pissed on a tasty piece of chocolate, biggest problem still is arc on Hunter for pve is still extremely whatever especially in the shadow of Prismatic
I really wish you could still reasonably farm stuff with no pinnacle energy. I didn't play for 3 days, built up all of my energy and burned it in like an hour and a half running singularity for fruits, now I'm not allowed to do anything else to progress. Can't even raise my acclaim. Maaaaaaaannnnnnnn I just wanna level :(
>>539287041you're supposed to buy more of it gweilo
>>539279902I couldn’t tell anybody in good faith to bother with the game right now if they had genuine curiosity or returning or whatever. The fact how Bungie has so much of the game not in the new system they’re pushing, huge important parts of the game are chopped liver and squatted basically just makes things feel extra shitty. This is basically the closest I’ve felt to Curse of Osiris where there’s some thing to technically do, it’s just it all kinda sucks and is extra pointless
>>539280181Uhm can I see your game dev credentials, you’re getting awfully close to not being qualified to make that statement. Can’t critique Bungie if you don’t make games, Datto’s rules
>>539274256Quick nobody look at the perks on the festival of lost weapons, just get ready to mindlessly grind green glows
>>539287286Destiny is a good game. Proof? Destiny Rising. What's the difference between Destiny EoF and Destiny Rising? One is made by bungie, the other is made by netease. Netease can (and wants to) make a good Destiny. Bungie can't (and doesn't want to).
>>539279902I've straight up told people in Rising that it makes no sense to pay $40 for a shittier experience that you will get so bored of so quickly if you're a casual that it won't ever feel like you got your money's worth since expansions barely add content and often times powercreep or flat out remove old content. The shit people pay for in D2 expansions is pure garbage, I don't know how they still get tricked year after year. Meanwhile even though Rising is gay gacha, at least you can do 95% of the content without paypigging therefore it has more content than Destiny 2 by default. >>539287772Destiny is a good IP. Destiny 2 is not a good game. Rising is very serviceable and gives the fans a lot of things they never thought they'd see done with such ease in a destiny game.
All we have to remember is:>if Destiny 2 falls, Destiny 3 will never existSo... log in!
>>539288226I don't want Destiny 3 if it means Bungie is making it.
>>539288226goodnot everything needs to last forever. Better to die a reasonable death while people still like you than degrade beyond all redemption.
>Bungie ended up being the real Destiny killerPottery...
>>539288331don't worry, they won'tsony isn't dumb enough not to clean house between marathon and destiny being in the state it's in
Maybe we are too old for Destiny2 now.
>>539288730>sony isn't dumb enough not to clean house between marathon and destiny being in the state it's inThey've still yet to officially cancel Fairgame$ and obviously they shipped Concord. Sony is still pretty retarded these days, even without Jim Ryan.
>>539288845Destiny is an old folks' home, anon. If it's not for the elderly it's not for anyone.
>>539288845A kid at work called it a boomer game, we are not too old for it. Bungie is not competent enough to handle a live service game.
>>539288542sister... the doomgods have been saying this for years
How badly is Bungie seething over Rising's success on a scale of 1 to 10?
Contest mode has always been the sloppiest slop of them all
>>539286782The best stuff for PvE Arcstrider right now are all on Prismatic.>Deflect with Arc StaffDoesn't last long enough, and isn't applicable outside of Mayhem, and even then it's pretty firmly locked to Blight Ranger.>Arc Staff in generalAdd clear supers are pointless when we can destroy entire waves of redbars by staring stiffly at them.>Tempest Strikelol>Flow State + Lethal Current + Combination BlowPrismatic has a better version of this combo that also cloaks you and heals you and prefiles your taxes.>Gathering StormIt was pretty hot when it came out, but these days if I already have a GG on the team it's probably better for me to go with Nightstalker, rather than a second DPS Super, or just run another GG instead of fucking around on Arc.
>>539290070dmg, who likes to talk about the games he plays (always the ones that are trendy, flavor of the month), remains silent on the subject.
>You see that mountain over there? Yeah,you can get there...
Destiny Rising is going to give us>an Ahamkara arc>an Iron Lords versus War Lords arc>a "where the fuck are the Sentinels (the based giant robot) in the Destiny2" arc that will explain their absence in Destiny2>a Shaxx and Zavala arc>a Drifter arc>a Awoken arc>a Crota arcLiterally I wanted
>>539290070100%. Not only does it show that there’s still interest in Destiny as an IP, none of the money the game is making is going to them. At best Sony gets an extremely small sum of profits, at worst they get nothing and are equally impatient as the players are, wondering why the mobile spinoff has more features at its launch that the main game doesn’t have.
AHEM! where the FUCK are the starbakers?!
>>539274972What armor sets are those? They suffer from being D2 models, but comparatively, aren't ass.
>already a gorillion recolors, not even proper bungo reskins>even shades the sameBungo didnt wait at least a year before recycling. In fact, the portal let them have a way to just recycle literally everything. It’s the only reason it exists. The hamster wheel could exist with just power resets but the portal gave them a reason to mostly give up on making new things outside of overpriced dlc. Also I realized we only have crossbows because they probably made a bowcaster for slopegades and said>erm, we can just make crossbowsWatch the bowcaster actually be good>no arc>big damage>no long ass faggot reload
>>539291521Has Zavala met his stupid mystery meat waifu and muh wife's son yet?
>>539291581There is no greater dishonor than someone else doing what you did even better.
>>539291521>an Iron Lords versus War Lords arcI literally cannot wait for this, I just know they're going to add human enemies with ghost mechanics and it's going to be awesome
>FIXED ROLLS FOR ALL GEAR IN THE GAME8 years later...what the fuck were they thinking?
>>539292724red minigame faggots wanted it
>>539292798no they didn't
>>539292597I seldom use the term for it but this whole saga is one big humiliation ritual for Bungie. It gets even worse when they said for ages how it was too expensive for Sparrow Racing to return, and yet these Chinese devs added it in anyways. And any mumbles from the BDF about how>it’s not worth it because there’s not much of a population for it!gets drowned out when the game has competent bots to fill in any case where there’s not enough players. In all cases it just ends badly for Bungie.
>>539292931the faggycakes types did
Who are your three mains in Rising?
>>539293152Wolf Jolder EstelaI was using Gwynn before Estela came along but I find her summoning stuff more fun to use than the void orbs thing
>me with my Fishy
>>539293040they never mattered and yet they have been the main influence of minigame over the years. sad company. i never understood their drive to turn destiny into an esport with trials and competitive mode. they could have given us fun stuff like combined arms back or tried to make cool game modes.
>>539293857Gernader Jake got killed by a ricocheting grenade launcher once and it took him a whopping 36 rounds to get to the Lighthouse that day and Bungie promptly nerfed that shit into the ground. They worship streamer scum over in Bellevue.
>>539293857considering how successful trials was and the growing audience of pro gamer sports it might have seemed like a reasonable decision at the time, a lot of the hype around competitive gaming has died down though, there's games with very active competitive scenes but i think every company knows now that not every game should and can be an esports
How can Destiny PVP even compete?
>>539293152Pajeet because I like hand gunsJolder because I love captain americaSummoning bitch because she's hot
Rising and Destiny 1 are the only canon games in the franchise. Destiny 2 retconned itself out of the timeline and even its own story with the constant vaulting of content.
>>539294537how long until rising goes from attractive women designs to actual goonerbait designs? we all know it's inevitable
>>539294843When they’ll introduce Mara
>>539294629She is NOT a pajeeta!
>>539294537
>>539294932mara is just an attractive womani'm talking about designs that are really over the top sexualized like that invisible woman pic
>>539294843Does china even allow goonerbait? I don't play chinese games so I have no clue, I thought that was a south korean thing.
>>539290070Prob a lot, I'm not playing either destiny, but DR shows all the D2's shortcomings. Unfortunately, the only lessons bungo will learn from DR is that people like mtx and gacha shit, and not the fun games modes or whatever. Fucking monkey's paw curlers.
>>539188152It was a shit event it lasted only a week which meant a fuckton of grind and the loot was bad. Why would you do it?
STARBAKERS WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU IM SERIOUS
>>539295123hoyo games are fairly goonerbait and they're tame compared to some of the other chink gachasthe gfl2 devs literally patented a new type of technology for sexier-looking feet
>>539295727>patented a new type of technology for sexier-looking feetextremely and irrevocably based
>>539295727holy sex
>>539294843I guess they could, but where would that fit in the world of Rising outside of a beach episode event? Right now it feels like a genuine attempt by fans of the series to continue where D1 left off spiritually, and it’s hard to imagine where else you can stick goonerbait into the world of Destiny besides turning the ghosts into walking onaholes.
>>539296432Awoken strippers
>>539296432>Harder daddy harder! With Morena Baccarin returning to play her of course.
>>539296565That would work well if Destiny Rising’s world gets to have a seedier side to it, with its own equivalent of the Spider.
>>539294537Netease makes Marvel Rivals & Destiny Rising... There is a big big hope, maybe next summer... Unless bungie said no for slut mogs
>>539294825I have a question about this.I downloaded Destiny 2 and I see all these "expansions" to buy but I think I remember these names and heard they were "vaulted" so why are they for sale unless I'm mistaken
>>539294629>>539294965She's a Maghreb queen
maya needs to make it real
>>539297414>Free-will Vex have clothes and random shit like humans>they will inevitably become coomer like usMaya started something big
>>539297023Lmao, bungie has no fucking say
>>539297834They don't call it "the oldest profession" for nothing.
>even star bakers have given up
>>539299402piss anon, we come to you in a time of great need
why didn't they put gambit and some of the pvp modes in portal?
>>539299934Gambit is allegedly getting reworked in Renegades, which they have not mentioned once since they announced it in January or some bullshit. They probably didn't want to put it in the Portal then deal with the potential bugs from updating it in the Portal.Does this make sense? No, not to anybody with a brain, but we're long past the rational when it comes to Bungie development standards.
>>539297070The only vaulted one for sale is Forsaken because they’re too greedy to make the raid, dungeon and exotics free already
>>539296674If we go to the Reef and a Spider-esque fallen gangster has Lightbearers throwing ass because he's got their ghosts held hostage I honestly don't know what I'd do
when are people going to get past the bargaining stage of grief the demands keep getting more unreasonable I just saw someone just ask them to sell the IP lol
got a cool clip i could submit as motw but im sure it would lead to a nerf the next twid
>>539301643Do it, we want a /dg/ eceleb
>>539302545i dont want them to ruin the only thing going for this game at the moment
>>539180707I'm on the last episode of this.
you think bungo will put the final nail in the coffin in this game by resetting power when renegades comes out?
>>539295727feet want to be free.
>>539304454yes
There may never be another dg thread again
>dmg hasn't tweeted in 5 daysand it feels so good
>>539296608Sagira's has been my titan main's and warlock's ghost shell since CoO. My hunter uses the cat one that makes random cat noises everytime you summon your ghost. Both are never coming back hopefully, just like my pvp feather torso ornament.
