This race, this thread, this game? It's all gonna be EPIC today.
>>540612346A "epic fail" if you will.
evan just proposed
>NOTSWAP>You can still swap to a different game
>>540612705Lmao.
>>540612705I keep joking that destiny is illegal in Russia because it's satanic and gay, but it's starting to make sense
The end approaches...
https://x.com/gernaderjake/status/1971913958589403621?s=46it’s over
Haven't keept up with this whole "epic raid" stuff. What makes it any different from the normal mode? Does it have new encounters, or is it just a harder version?
>May include NEW encounters >Epic raid contains no truly new encounters Bungie are the master’s of self destruction.
How long before Datto Doesn’t Destiny?
>>540613803we just dont know
>>540612705i always had a peculiar feeling about that boy
>>5406139193.5 months
This is the hope thread
>me with my Truth
>>540613803there is nothing new just harder mechanic slop. hopsissies think there will be a new encounter but there won’t. DoomGODS won again
SIVA?
>>540613919he already triedno one watches him for varietyif he quits Destiny then he nukes his revenue hardhas to go down with the ship essentially
Payday gods stay winning
So… anyone here actually retarded enough to actually try the contest mode Epic Raid? Just wondering.
>>540614350Will /vt/ save him eventually?
>>540613919now introducing Datto Does Estrogen
>>540614460Cant didnt buy EoF.
>>540613919>>540614350i wonder how he feels seeing other, including former, Destiny streamers leave the game or pivot to variety streaming and never look back.
>>540615008this is what made him troon out
Thread themehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLdB8mNOLzM
>>540615052but he didn't...
>epic raid
More like epic RAPE
please bungie... tell me you cooked with the epic raid... let it truly be something you've never done before... something that makes the raid a completely new experience... an experience that will knock everybodys socks off and can implemented into past raids and even dungeons later down the line.. please.....
Are (You) actually going to partake in the epic raid? Who are ya watching? Who are ya playing with?
>>540614019>>540614304Alright, ready to be disappointed then
>>540616632Barely following /dg/ for the comedy, otherwise playing something else on another monitor
>>540616632watching anything just to see if they make something meaningful to the raid of if its just nothing at all.the shitshow's gonna be fun
>>540616632No, no one, randos in trials.
>>540613919He's been trying to jump onto the Deadlock train after the big recent update.But unfortunately for him he fucking SUCKS ASS even with super strong characters.Sad!
>>540616632I have no friends to play with, no clan, no nothing. I'm a lone wolf awooooooooo
I'm looking at getting a new laptop and I'm wondering if I'll be able to play Destiny 2 on the integrated GPU. I think the GPU should be fast enough. I'll have to turn down the graphics settings and probably the render resolution too but I think it should still be playable.Do any of you play Destiny 2 on a laptop's integrated GPU? Is it a decent gaming experience?
>>540617606How big is your knot
>>540615705sex with this anime girl
>>540615705non consensual sex with this anime girl
HERE WE GO EVERYBODY GET FUCKING HYPED RIGHT NOW
>HOPES>DREAMS>EXPECTATIONS
>tune into Hapacross>Mactics screeching>tune into Datto>Skarrow being cringewhy did they ever let these fucks into their day one group, can't stand them.imma watch the italian pasta guy, saltagreppo
>raid intro changed yes... oh fuck yes... its going to be a totally different experience than the original... c'mon baby let's see those encounters
>>540618906NO HOPE FOR THE FUTURENONE WAIT FOR THE CALL
I just want the next week in destiny popup instead...
Why is Mactics throwing?
>streamers aren't using the pre-approved overlayumdisqualified????
>Cross has ~10x the viewers of everyone else in the categoryHow does he do it?
>we broke 24-hour peakRetention? Positive.Content? Watchable.Bungie? Cooked. Doomers? Lost.
>>540616632lol no. I'm gonna do 1 activity to get 3 strange coins and buy that Warden's Law Xur is selling
>>540619718They're realizing that bingle's overlay doesn't hide anything of worth, so they're not bothering. And since they can't rely on monopoly of information, they're...not even bothering to participate in the race.
>>540616632I'm playing Ghostwire Tokyo
>>540616632Nah, I'm a solo wolf
>>540619165Damn you know Datto's on hard times when Mork for the 2nd time in a row wants nothing to do with Datto's team, underrated life blood of that team
Disabled items:>Bastion Exotic Fusion Rifle>One-Two Punch Perk>Haliaetus Legendary Rocket Launcher>Lightweight Legendary Swords>Ergo Sum Exotic Sword>Bounty and Weapon Leveling Progression for Combatant Kills
>>540620846Skarrow will pull Mork's weight
>>540620989Everyone already knew this retarded anime poster kill yourself
>It's a shittier version of PantheonIT'S SO FUCKING OVER LMAO
gonna be epically quick raid since the hydra is at 10 percent health after two damage phases on their first run lol
>>540621091>le epic raid>3 new guns>everything else exactly the same>jump in A hoop instead of B hoopYeah I'm thinking Bungie cooked
Can we at least have a comfy positive thread for our event? It's an important moment for the community
hydra already cleared
>>540621042Skarrow belongs in a jail cell for unironically saying he’d pay $250 for a raid if bungie charged that much. Also the “I’ve seen things not shown in the Alpha I’ve never seen in a video game before” and he’s literally describing puzzling that has happened in things like CoD DMZ and Warzone
Dattosisters why does he only have 3k viewers??
>>540621849trannies dont draw
>>540621438Nah
>>540619681This motherfucker needs to stop coaching every single thing. The fact Cross still has this mongo and the other shitter Kujay still in the picture is torture. Just worst guys
>>540612705Lmao, I kept saying they're fucking, and it's real :D
>>540620989>Lightweight Legendary SwordsAre they scared their bug fix didn't work?
>>540621997I think kujay is arguably a bigger faggot then Mactics
>>540621438Yeah, we should be talking about we talking about the game has 26K PLAYERS ON STEAM#DestinyIsBACK#BungieCOOKED
>>540617902D2 was never particularly demanding for GPU front. I know people who’ve played on 1060 6gbs and it’s not hell on earth. Personally I wouldn’t buy a gaming laptop specifically to play Destiny
>>540616956Cucktics is a tractor bitch once more.
>>540616632watching our sister and crossdefinitely not playing>>540616956i've had more fun making these little wipe screen images and shitposting about the raid race than i've had playing the game in the last 3 years
>>540612705Wait is this real lmao
>final stand bar for hobgoblinlmfao

>>540622074I genuinely lost brain cells when he got a lick of popularity with his “here’s how to fix gambit rework” and the entire thing was the most dog shit summary right down to how he wants role queues.
>>540622160very happy to see tractorslut is performing his function again
Good luck on your "big" race today destiny community, still not installing this slop
post the epic raid caldera fireteam image, i lost it :(
I haven't played this game in months. I heard they banned Russia and other regions. If I set my VPN to Russia can I get a refund on steam?
>>540612705This nigga sweet
Cross looks like he's having a lot of fun
>>540621438>comfyStop misusing this word cunt.
>>540622896
>>540622896Maybe its for the best that Datto didn't display himself on cam, because Cross looks fucking pissed.
26k on steam right now all joking aside this game really is on its last legs
>first team with comms is chineseabsolute fucking state of this community
>>540622719
okay, this is epic
>>540624074kek
>le epic maymay raid can't even hit 50k
>>540623657there's roughly 70k players playing the game across all available platforms>>540624074lmao the mrroflwaffles, datto and tractor mactics drawings gets me
godbolt will carry
>>540622582he kept harping on doing so much damage last night as they practiced, mentioned it every single time he outdamaged someonejust outright admitted that he got bootyblasted after a bunch of people came into his chat to shit on him for doing so little damage last race
>>540623657Bungie deserves this
>>540624074>Datto, ???, Cross, ???, Fagtics, CoD GuyWho are the other two
pasta man cleared hydra in two phases
It's up
>Datto bitching and disabling his YouTube chat like the beta faggot he is Truly an epic raid
Emblem claimed, goodbye stre*mers
>>540625443TRVTHNVKE
>>540625616he disabled it last time too
>>540622147The main reason I want a new laptop is for programming but I think I'll try D2 on it as well. Hopefully it should be playable based on what I've looked up.
>>540625616I still have no clue what set him off. Not only did he have only 2k less viewers there than Twitch, but it didn’t seem like YT chat was even used that much. In contrast Cross’s chat is full of people openly talking shit about the state of D2, both grey names and members, while he depressingly plays the game.
>>540625216datto, sweatcicle, cross, lodi from the final cutscene from the campaign, tractor bitch and roflwaffles
>>540625616YouTube chat is filled with doomers and chuds
llama's team has cleared two bosses now
Who else is playing Gambit RN?I heard there is some Raid happening or something. Losers.
/oursister/ doesn't deserve the hate
THE RAPED
qrd on the ebin raid.Did anything change?
>>540627037>yt chat is done foreverWhat the fuck did they do to him?
>second biggest event behind the expansion launch>26,842 playing 18 min agouhhhhhhhBDF?????where art thou???
>>540627605mechanic changes, minotaur has a final stand now
>>540627037KWAB
>EA Sports FC 26 has more viewers
>>540627851They just gave him a final stand? Thats it?
>>540627991Over delivery, train station, cooking etc.
>>540627896counting or not counting third worlders?
>>540627037bend over
Schizocicle decided to check D2's player count for the first time since TFS, lmao.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT8eeiumJ6E
What are the lay offs gonna be like this time?
>>540627991hobgoblin***sorry anon, made a mistake.all encounters have new mechanics, and from what streamers have shown the hobgoblin has a final stand.thats about it lol, we dont know if koregos has anything new
>>540626297Well yeah Llama is actually half way decent, if he’s with Toidi and Gmeiners that’s not bad company
>>540627170i already gilded dredgen so there is not much reason for me to play
>"bungie is basically a hype man for a dead product"
>>540628418the entire company, sony will take the IP and use it as a tax write-off
>>540628415The final shape, more like the final straw.
>>540628883hopefully before the faggots in upper management take their vested shares
Are we even going to make it to Renegades at this point? The game looks like it's about to collapse in the next month or two.
>>540627037https://files.catbox.moe/9og44y.webmkwab
>>540625851>Emblem claimedIs it good?
>>540628415I was surprised Plunder went on that strong . Revenant being as bad as it was number wise was a good reality check especially when that went down during the holidays end of year when a lot of people game
I don't even want a Destiny 3, because Bungie is a completely different studio now with nobody left who contributed to or understands the appeal of the original vision. If we got a Destiny 3 it would do wonders for onboarding new players and starting over in terms of mechanics and content, but I just know it would completely miss the point in terms of presentation, lore, writing, and direction.
>>540628418There isn’t going to be a bungie soon it’s gonna be Sony Bellevue
3 hours and he looks like he's done with this shit.
>>540629154RAPED and BROKEN
>>540628418I mean at this point is that just Puneet and Xiao getting laid off? Bungie axed off so many people, there’s people who were cut mid way through making the raids and dungeons for this current year,they got people who were on Marathon gone, like I genuinely am curious who in house not sub contracted is even still left. Cause right now for the amount Bungie is trying to give surveys for what EV sets you want,their entire model is a full lean into trying to get people to buy silver sets and nothing more. Even when Bungie caved on the current seasonal bonus shit,the entire thing was setup to be way more disposable. Unironically we have a situation where Bungie’s dropping like a seasons worth of shit for a DLC price and having it be squatted faster than anything we’ve seen prior
The player count is still climbing... we're almost at 30k..
>>540629154BUNGIE RAPE VICTIM
>>540629571
>>540629379we got destiny 3 it's called destiny rising
>>540629810
>>540629154>I'll cut off another revenue source because chat is mean :(Based.
>>540630007End of service by the end of next year
>post yfw you did not tie your career and income to making content for Destiny 2
>>540630142It only made 9 million the first month supposedly, not including people who played on emulators or China yet but even still that’s pretty bad for a gacha
>>540629721>this fucking pictureOh, D2 is so much much better enjoyed from the outside looking in.
>>540629379Beyond Light is D3, fuck off
>>540630301
Is there a way to make my shitty dinky gun that does 5 dmg per shot suddenly do 50,000 damage every single shot while just spraying it randomly like everyone else's in crucible?
>>540630449Substantiate this in any way, I am genuinely curious.
>>540625443very true, but it wasn't EoF that did thisEoF and the Year of Prophecy just dug up the raped remains of Destiny and then raped it again
llamas team three bosses down
imagine the cope if there's no new boss
Is this a new raid or the hard mode of the raid? I thought the game just got a new raid?
>>540629958
>>540630919B-but they added the final stand to hobgoblin!
The ebin :DDDD raid could cure cancer and it would change nothing, the game is built on a rotten foundation
https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/article/48072 it's up
>>540630919Has a hard mode raid ever done that?
>re-used PyramidionLOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
>>540626297They're on final now.
>>540631109Drifterposting on /dg/ feels like one of my fondest memories of D2.
Final boss room spawns in the 3 bosses from the previous encounters
>>540631236When they first announced this whole stupid epic raid thing they said that was something that could happen so of course it’s not going to
>>540627991No, the mechanics are vastly different and final looks to basically not even be the same boss, entirely different room etc.
>>540630859I think it’s just being surprised how shit the most simplest lowest bar to clear is. Ok Frontiers article says we get 1 less raid and dungeon, bigger emphasis on DLC, freebie update to iron out bullshit, and even then they can’t do the bare minimum and even looks like they moved basic QOL shit to Renegades in that slide show. Can’t even get the old content on the new systems and you have fat slobs saying how it’s too much and would divide the populace if we had a bunch of raids rebooted to at least give their armor better quality shit and a set bonus. The fact how Bungie couldn’t even give out reward tracks with a shader is pathetic as well
>>540631171
>>540631097I'll make another one with this if we get a new depressed Cross at the end of this fiasco.
Epic status?
>>540631236A team is literally on a new final boss right now
kek why did cross and co start with the wyvern when thats the encounter they struggled with the most on day 1
>>540631425Everybody complained about Luke Smith but I can't help but notice that right around the time he stopped being director, the game became lame and lost its soul.
>AN ENCOUNTER WHERE YOU BACK IN TIME!?!?!????????these guys have gone full shill mode, holy fuckyou did it in the first raid
>enemy team is retarded>our team loses because it's even more retarded
>>540631460nice
>>540631561to get it out of the way first, making the rest easier.but also master "tractor cannon bitch" tactics is holding them back
Okay yeah I’ll give them credit here this is basically a new encounter
>>540631337/oursister/ will actually kill herself, and cross and iGODbolt will murder craptics
Stop shitting on the build crafting king. Chadtics would dismantle this entire raid if he was on Warlock.
>>540631423Dont even need a set bonus. I just need old content to at least work with the fucking ll/power grind. As it is there is 0 reason to run 9 out of the fucking 10 raids in this game and no reason to run thr 10 dungeons once you hit 200. Imagine thinking taking 19 of your 20 endgame PvE activities and making them worthless to run would be a good idea.I want modern bungie employees to get raped and beaten as hard as they have raped and beaten this game.
OMAGAD CHAT THIS IS THE THING THE THING!
>Bungie has never made a new encounter/boss/arena in a hard mode raid before>Manages to do it when they are staffed with a skeleton crew of interns while the game is coming apart at the seams
>>540632001I bet I've made better build setups than him and I have never watched a single one of his videos.
>>540632076I miss that strike
>>540632091we lost 2 dungeons a year for this
>final boss is all the bosses at onceAlright thats pretty cool, lazy but cool
>>540629154>https://files.catbox.moe/9og44y.webmLmao, he's at the verge of tears
>>540629154What could even cause this?
>>540632950Not following rules and shitting on /oursister/
How is Cross faring?
>>540627037Get fucked tratto
>>540633243Just like his day 1 experience. Stuck on wyvern
>>540631564trvthnvkehe was replaced by Joe and under his direction Destiny was forever ruined beyond repair, and the few good things he did were very half-assedmany still praise Joe and very few realize just badly he fuck this game
>>540632950I don't think YouTube has all the usual twitch censorship bots or they are straight up not as effective, which leads to YouTube chat being unironically based and real. I've noticed that in most YouTube chats I've been in
>30 second ad break starts playing when the first team got to final encounterholy fuck who uses this website
>>540633684Datto
>>540633653SO based. Under Joe the visual identity of Destiny was completely fucked, we got "themed" seasons which led to garbage like Lightfall and now Renegades
>>540633473Grim.
witnessing what is likely the last raid race and its very underwhelming, to say the least
DMG status?
I uninstalled the game a month ago or so, and watching this raid race makes me sad because at first glance, the moment-to-moment gameplay looks the same as the game I loved. Even the aesthetics look true to form in this Vex encounter, which makes me feel like I want to play it again, and then I just remember how raped the game actually is with all the portal shit and the star wars bullshit and how most of the game is soft-sunset and everyone who worked on it is gone.
They cooked bigly with the final encounter.
will we even hit 30k? holy shit
>>540635436I understand bro
>>540635963Why would we? There's nothing new for the vast majority of players.
>>540632025People actually defend this shit by saying 'if you're chasing power levels or great loot, you're playing the game wrong, you can play raids and dungeons for FUN'. There are bungie shills who unironically said that.
dead
>24 hour peak is 28,136>Dropped to 28,099>On a Saturday>On epic raid race dayCouldn't even break 30k. Are you really hoping, or are you coping?
>>540634963jamming
>>540639476don't worry the star wars crossover will save the game (lol)
>>540639476Hopeposters are just larping doomers really. Nobody actually expects Bungie to turn things around anymore.
The exotic mission will save us
>>540629154We shouldn't be happy to hurt him like that, for nothing, he just wants to play the game and shares his passion
>>540639868>iron lord axe>quicksilver
WAKE UP
>datto isn't even fucking close to the last encounterlmao
>>540640085Bingle is taunting the people who like siva, knowing full well they'll paypiggy anyway.
Did Evan actually propose like he’s actually homosexual
we just need to build momentum and maintain it. let's fucking do this thing
>>540640253You're right but I don't even care if it uses siva, quicksilver just looks gay. The ornament is worse.
apologise
>>540612705
>>540640637HOW MANY TIMES DO I NEED TO TEACH YOU THIS LESSON?
I liked edge of fate
>open a stream to check raid out of morbid curiosity>5 seconds of watching gameplay>Ad>close streamGuess I'll never know what that raid is like
Bungie cooked with the epic raid!Look how much fun cross is having!
why is ball crushing difficulty the goal for most games now?
>player count dropping back downNOOOOOO GET IN THE PORTAL!!!!!!!
>>540641808extending streamer playtime for free advertising
>>540641185edge of fate minus portal and power progression changes would be pretty good
>>540641615He’s tuckered out from the epic time he’s been having! Yippee!
>>540642024
>>540641941No!
>>540638098>you can play raids and dungeons for FUNThat's completely true though. It's true for everything. You don't need a "goal", you don't need something "to work towards", either you enjoy the gameplay, meaning you always have a reason to play, or you don't enjoy the gameplay, meaning you never have a reason to play.
>>540641615
Has Datto shot himself on stream yet?
>>540642712heh
>>540643128No but YouTube chat is permanently living in banworld and this may be the last stream xe does on YouTube.
>>540642712>>540643349Made a very marginal improvement, I should've done it closer-up to begin with
>Bruh destiny is dying this was such a good game idk what happenedhow many times has this community given bungie a 2nd chance?
>>540612705This shit is so tired. They're focused more on literal faggotry than saving the game.
>>540643737>how many times has this community given bungie a 2nd chance?Umm, only once? They gave them a chance, then they gave them a second chance, after that it was a third chance, then a fourth chance, than a fifth one, etc...I mean, count to ten, how many times did you count two?
>>540643893touché anon
>>540643996
>>540631564>>540633653Tnat's because you weren't around before him. He's the faggot that started Blizzardfying the game. He's the faggot that was responsible for timegating and exorbitant grinds. He's the reason all titan shoulders were the size of a fucking minibus. He turned the game to garbage in his desperate attempt to relive getting Scarab Lord and he wouldn't shut the fuck up about it. There's a reason he was hated. And just because this game keeps getting progressively worse with time doesn't make it any less true that he was objectively worst thing to ever happen to it at the time it happened to it. When your house is done burning down you don't reminisce how you miss when it was in roaring flames for fuck's sake you obnoxious deluded cunts. Don't forget that under him and noseworthy Destiny was THIS.
>8 TEAMSLMAO
You WILL get in the portal and you WILL like it
>>540645530Guaranteed top 10 spot. :^)
>>540644860still better than Joe
Any YouTube streams with people on final? Was watching Vendetta/Salt since their stream looks the least obnoxious but I'm tired of these midroll ads even with the vaft script, the 480p downgrade it causes sucks
>>540645874Are you ready to say goodbye to it in three months?
>>540645845Same shit different name. "StIlL BeTtEr ThAn" Nigger I JUST covered this.
>come home, remember it's EPIC day>look up streams>entirely new encounter???What the fuck is this Pyramidion shit
>>540646918In case of fire, break glass a little bit
so what’s even different im not giving any of these niggers views
>>540646918dunno but the music is good
>>540647047The first three encounters have absolutely niggerish complications, like Hydra having a "fact checker" for the eyes, Wyvern suspending you if you don't jump, and Hobgoblin charging coils accepting only certain colors of chronon.Biblically accurate harpy is completely different. He now lives in the Pyramidion and summons all three bosses against you, and starts on phase 3 enrage. You need to trap the bosses in time while going back in time yourself so you can start from phase 1 and do damage.
bungie making content that only 0.05% of the playerbase gets to experience is unironically basednot gonna save the game tho
>>540648217building momentum
>>540648217Did they delay the raid or something? This is barely higher than it has been lately.
>>540648217Kek. Game is saved guys
>>540648381There are only 8 teams bothering with it
What is left after this epic raid? Star Wars is two(2) months away
>they cooked with this raid race eat this humble pieThey made one new encounter? Its fucking pathetic that this is even a race
>>540648669the momentum is up to (You) to build, Guardian.
>>540648669piss from ass
>>540647356Isn’t there a nicer way to describe the new encounters without using a slur?
You're telling me no one wants to play Cutting Edge: Zone Control?
>>540649118guardians make their own momentum
busy playing the better D2what did they do with the raid race? did something fun(lol) or the usual slop?
Bungie really thinks their stupid boring gay "Epic Raid" matters to anyone? This is the saddest shit, they're Weekend-At-Bernie's-ing Destiny 2 so much you have to laugh.
It’s incredibly they were able to find a genuine redditor to voice Lodi
>>540649450actually they don't lmao the nine were behind everything all along
>>540650043One of the new mechanics is you literally rejecting fate and going back in time to undo Koregos enrage.
>>540646749don't give a shitall the retardation that Luke is responsible for could have been fixed, and a bit of it wasunder Joe's direction the setting itself was completely destroyed and nothing can be done to remedy this
We went from a peak of 28k players back to 26k players today...I think the hopesissy is going to neck himself.
>>540650365Wow just like my Undertale videogame!
>>540650365You're only allowed to do that because you have the Nine's permission
>>540650684herself*
>>540650365>>540651327*xirself
>>540651327Hopesissy isn't a real herself unless it's a female (real)
>>540651671they always post with some random anime pic that's a female, so they must be female themselves.
So they finally put the bare minimal amount of effort into making what other MMOs typically would do when they make a high difficulty version of a normal raid? (instead of whatever they've been doing since D1 with other hard mode raids)They're not doing this again next year are they? Otherwise they're CREATING PATTERNSBEWARE
>>540651792true
>>540651954What they were doing in D1 was what normal MMOs do: make a raid, release it as the hard mode, strip out the more coordination-heavy mechanics, release it as the normal mode.
>>540651954there will be a normal version of the epic raid and the epic raid and first version of the raid co-existthis is just a way to add a new "raid" without having to make an entirely new raid
I wonder what the freaks who subcribe and donate to streamers look like. They gotta be the dysgenic freaks you see on public transportation in cities or hicks in small towns
>there are people in this thread right now who donate to streamers
>>540651954>They're not doing this again next year are they?Ofc not.Mainly because the game's gonna be offline permanently lmao
>>540652787kai cenats top donator spent like $300,000 on subs, imagine gifting that much money to a guy who's already a multi-millionairestreamer culture is a lot like gachas, just try to get whales to spend as much on you as possible
>>540651954Shout out to all the BDFs who argued that the time gating til Ash and Iron is good because we needed the epic raid to get the Tier 5 loot and have things be worth while, yet forget how it would literally be soft sunset in 2 months and 5 days if Bungie stuck to the hard cutoffs of current season loot. WoW totally drops the harder mode raids this late and shitbins it in that fast of time.
>>540652978Do you think people will kill themselves once EoS hits? They've made this game the core of their identity for some fucking reason.
We must save Destiny. How do we do it?
>>540652787Alright I'll bite. About 2 Years ago I was in a fucked up spot, hobosexual life where I was trying to get sober and just back on track. I'm crashing at this absolute refridgerator of a woman's trappartment, she's already probably scamming public housing under reporting her income from fake email job. Know how tism people adopt a lot of traits of these streamers, like how Hawaiian shirts really took off at comic cons? and people doing the weird gay Datto hair jimmy neutron shit? this chick would be spending all of her money on limited streamer endorsed makeup, wig extension bundles, and (in her mind) tipping with subs because this was her friend, this was tipping a bartender or server she liked. Like she didn't "get" that literally anybody doing this shit is so covered in specific makeup that only looks good on camera+filters and outside you will look like an actual clown. Anyway I got out of there when she was trying to get a polycule going in there and by then I had enough money to break it off, but yes very disgusting year and half of my life. Fat slobs with no impulse control prop up fake economy
>>540653526fire all the current dei employees, hire back all the old based crew (including super MAGA Marty)thats the only way
>>540653175100%. For some players its their livelihood, thats why they always softball or defend Bungie even when its clear that the studio is currently falling apart. It's not even because they love the preferential treatment they get from the company, its just a fact that if people are leaving the game to the extent that they are right now then it results in less of an audience, which results in less viewers or paying fans, which means that they'll have to go back to wage slaving sooner or later.The only thing that would be sadder though is if Rising somehow EoS's before D2. The latter is a game that fucking deserves it for how its been mishandled after Forsaken.
>>540652787I had a few friends of friends in the late 2010s who were decent-sized streamersThe whales were usually single twentysomething dudes in the tech industry who had way more money than they knew what to do withThe biggest ones though were actual Arab oil princes, now those people have fuck you money
>>540644860> Lording around Scarab Lord titleAbsolute bozo. Anybody who was grinding WoW back when AQ scepter knew it was a complete circumstance of being in a collaborative effort of your servers top guilds(you need to be on the more populated faction), round the clock head count needed to fight certain bosses and really depends if the guilds you're buddied up with are ok with how the whole thing got sorted. Idk what server Luke was on but there's a difference in experiences if you start talking the shit show of Mal'Ganis back in the day when it was just hyper competitive and something more chill.
>>540648669Festival of the Cost
>>540652787Beared white guys probablyI'm paying for Amazon Prime unironically though so I give money to one creator a month just because it comes with itIt's never been to a Destiny streamer though
so are people actually calling the same reused bosses a new encounter? Lmao. Slop raid.
>>540650365>erm actually everything happened because we allowed it!!!>ok retards watch thisthe guardian stays winning
>>540648217Well as i predicted the raid wouldn't bring THAT many people back.. It is a raid after all and considering its difficulty only a certain group of players would be able to complete it... Now the exotic mission on the other hand is something all players are capable of doing. I am sure that will bring 30k+ players minimum.
>>540655256BRO THEY COOKED ITS THE RAID TEAM COOKING
>>540654351Google says that he was playing a shaman on Eredar, which I'm interpreting as him getting carried because of windfury totems
>>540653526>Support crafting again>Normal cap never changes; after you've hit the limit you're able to do everything and don't have to grind power anymore>Silver can no longer be bought. It can now be earned in game by completing activities and getting kills— completion of a normal activity gives 10 silver and enemies have a 5% chance to drop 1 silver on death; this is so that cosmetics can now be earned instead of bought by retarded cash cows>No more melodrama bullshit, and enough side character romances for fuck's sake>No more ugly ass armor, we're doing haloman unironically and you're gonna like it; same with Hunters and Warlocks (think ODSTs with cloaks and dusters)>Taken subclass>Humanity GOOD story focus about taking back the planet and then the system>New enemies>Portal is gone>A few hot ladies are now into the Guardian and are part of his fanclub>Third person mode in PVE>More 6-man activities, and all the old ones are back in their own playlist with updated loot>No more vaulting content; it's in the game forever>Dedicated serversImplement these changes over time and the game is saved.
>Pretend this a cool animated intro>Alright guys, I'm back with another Destiny 2 video. The epic raid race happened this weekend and Destiny didn't break 30k players on Steam.
>>540655406You really think people are going to reinstall to unlock a gun to use in a sandbox that is horrible in a game that is horrible? I bet most people who left dont even know about it
>xitter is glazing the “new” encounter and even gladd said they cookeddoomGODS….. status report?
>>540657496I'm glad that Bungie put Gladd in his place for succumbing to doomers
>>540657496>doomGODS….. status report?feasting
>>540656863But think about how unique and interesting an exotic solar sword that heals you is
>>540657917maybe if it had siva it would bring nostalgiafags back but they couldn't help themselves and made it use the neotroona nanites instead
>>540632076Maybe the lake is a metaphor?
>>540656863Reinstall? Many people have it ready to launch, they just need a reason to log in. The player count a few days ago was 19 something and today it was 28k and that was just for the raid. Now add something in thats accessible to everyone, will drop a brand new exotic weapon, and you'll get 30k+ players without a doubt. It makes sense really. >a gunerm actually its a sword
>>540658993nah I'm not opening the game again until they remove the shitty power level stuff new guns are irrelevant when I can't even get a good version to even begin dropping without grinding for a week or two
>>540657496>TwitterLmaoI give it a couple days until things go back to normal
This Gambit queue sure is takin' a while. How about that.
>>540657753>>540657749>>540660093
>>540657496I am willing to bet an ungodly sum of money Gladd is bipolar irl. The behaviors he has reminds me of a friend from college who would act very similar to him and just bounce around with the extremes of the mania and so forth. Also doesn't help Gladd is actual washed and he's still trying to act like Redeem didn't have a massive benefit that people weren't autistically over analyzing Destiny 2 in year 1 or 2 and nobody was testing as well as Aegis did. Fucking Ehroar was an authority on things and that dummy gets shit wrong all the time.
>all the raid races are just dps check slop now
>>540660329Is "sad to see" the new codephrase?
>>540660447all of the first three bosses of this raid were two phased on contest. go back to playing anal plug simulator or whatever.
>The Desert Perpetualyeah...of content lol
Did anybody win this bullshit already?
>>540660768No, there's only eight teams participating and nobody can figure out how the time travel mechanic works.
>>540660881Datto's gonna get the inside job this time around isn't he. One last go
>>540659360Renegades will hopefully fix that or perhaps by the the time we get there it will be solved. Bungie knows how displeased everyone is with the new systems and they surely cannot afford another edge of fate situation. Trust.
>>540661058he'll get cucked out of first one last time and finally troon out completely as madness takes him
is that a chick on dattos team or a datto chick?
>>540662121he already trooned out
>>540661058>>540661945Posts like these are the reason youtube chat chuds got permanently btfo
>>540662397rape
>>540662597Wtf was chat even saying to make him react like that
>>540662397>misusing words
>>540662397Jesus Christ, what a fucking faggot. Disgusting
>Tractorslut finds out that Tractor isn't an option on the EPIC hobgoblin>Has a mental break
>>5406574961 encounter and 1 day is all it took to change him from Gladd to Cuckk. All that effort on some 6 paragraph tweet about how Destiny is fucked and the very next day its "BUNGIE COOKED OMG" because of a damage phase what a cuck.
>>540662397decent cosplay but those fake breasts are not it
>>540663587>who's daddy's little withering gaze slut
>>540662830The truth
>streamers beg for harder content>"we're bringing challenge back to destiny">and so begins the downward spiral>streamers bitch about how much of a chore the game is>game is dead
>>540662830>speak poorly about the game>speak poorly about Bungie>speak poorly about Datto or other streamers>point out how washed Datto isThat's basically the chat when his wife isn't moderating during day 1 content and Datto, much like Bungie, don't know how to function outside their hugbox.
>closest team died on final standhere we go again
>>540664423they wiped as they hit final stand, it was a fluke
>>540664193it is odd that game companies cater to streamers as much as they do
>>540664423IT'S HER TURN
>>540664509here we go again again
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKVhRLkfc20lol
>game shit the bed again as someone is on worlds first pace
>closest team just had like 10 visual bugs in a rowthis fucking game LMAO
just say saltagreppo we all know he's the closest
imagine losing worlds first because bungie is fucking incompetent and can't fix their game
salta "tom brady" greppo
Those devs tried to fuck on me
>>540665432Tom Brady never 3peated
this epic raid proved that we dont need a d3
With every release you put out there, you're setting a pattern for your community and your players.
>>540666308you dont understand how patterns work if you never worked with tiger engine
I thought the raid would be over by now but people like Cross are still at it?
first legit final stand reached and it wiped them in like 5 seconds. jesus
how was your big event lil bro? did you have fun watching the few remaining players "enjoy" the raid?
>>540666452If Bungie releases a raid with a new epic final encounter - the next year folks will be UPSET if there isn't. They hurt the station by making a rogue decision in one train. Overdelivery is actually DANGEROUS for a train station.
>>540664675Translation incoming>I’m a nigger faggot who refuses to play people of my skill level and I only want to bully average players>I hate everyone getting loot and having their time respected>I enjoy carrying lesser players to boost my ego>I’m only enjoying it because of muh streaks and stompingFuck you nigger, I’m glad you’re gone.
Teams getting to final stand keep wiping without it being clear what is causing it... please I'm begging let it be bugged.
Admit it, Bungie cooked.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVL1nEqH2hwI was wondering why Kackis wasnt at the raid. Cant believe one of the few Bungie diehards left was so stressed at the idea of doing the Ebin raid that he chose not to do it.
>>540667770https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJWLq8Wfm28
>>540667439thats just trialsfags and streamers in general.house of wolves and its consequences have been a disaster for destiny.
>>540667472this would be doomkino
>huge raid race>cant event beat IRL streams.
Salt cleared
>cut content from the raid and ship it months later>bungie cooked! Drones are too easy to impress
BELT #5 BABY
god damnit, pasta man got another one
that's it?
>>540667918Should have just made PoE a raid and dismantled PvP. Never began for Destinycels...
>crank up boss hp value in excel>this is all it takes to make a raid last 4 hours longer
and so destiny 2 ends....
>another round of salta saying some bullshit that sheep will say he's right cause of his new beltTOTAL BUNGIE DEATH
>>540668382Nah, it was just the previous funny filter from SE which was they had to jump to not die. Though now its beaten the viewer count is about to plummet.
Reprised raid? Yup I knew Elysium was winning this lolCongrats also to Vendetta, that was a great pickup
/oursister/ is never going to make it...
tranno status?
>>540668784THE GAME IS DYING AND HE"LL NEVER GET A BELT OR ANYTHING TO SHOW FOR ITIMAGINE
>>540668693>>540668553>>540668582mickey mouse * belt just like all the other Elysium belt. They are revamped raid merchants and Vow was rigged
how come salt only wins raid reprisals (minus Vow)
>>540668738They are not the world's first, they were the first to step up...
>>540669173Because he's a mechanics fraud, also Vow was blatantly rigged to force a shitgreppo/tranno grudge match.
>>540669173Elysium knows how to optimize for content already figured out and are quick to adapt when face with some unknown variables.
>>540668738Vendetta is an honorary Elysium member anyways since he runs a lot of low man shit with Salt
>>5406691485 belt pic is gonna make you redditors so mad!!!! LOL
>>540668637pvp in this franchise has always been ass and greatly reduced the game's potential.
>>540669148how many belts do you have anon
>>540669148What colour is your raid belt?
>>540669556>colour
>chink team got 2nd place
My GOAT is BACK
>>540669148Vow was rigged for Datto more than anything else, Math Class would've been buried by infinitely more competitive teams that were sidelined from errors. The entire thing existed as a force grudge match to drag them closer to Elysium.
>>540667439I don't even think he realizes how bitchy his statement comes off especially when he talks about the behind the scenes shit he himself does. Dude basically said he wants to just stomp Christmas noobs in the endgame pvp playlist after playing sweaty gamers just like himself. Okay thanks for sharing???? Weirdo.
Datto lost, I can rest now
>>540669173Easiest answer ever. He learns and embraces the autism. Even beyond just practicing constantly on min/max speed runs, but he basically learned from the literal whos of the world that have all of the right muscle memory and know-how, and has even recruited some of these guys. That's how he wins he found bigger autists than him and literal tard wrangled. Datto, Cross, Sweatcicle other people like that don't practice in nearly the close way to how Salt does
>>540614619Nah. /vt/ doesn't look kindly upon one-game chuubas even if they're women, and /vt/ has a culture of background checking everyone based exclusively on their voice. They'd just make fun of him for being a washup that couldn't make it as a flesh streamer playing a single game.
>>540669173He’s actually admitted his team struggles with figuring out mechanics for the first time but is good at executing them
>>540670023I recently rewatched the entire Vow WF and Elysium was getting absolutely fucked over during exhibition, they would get like 1 attempt and then get anteatered, but they had a really good run on Rhulk, they wiped once to final and cleared the very next attempt, nothing was stopping them from that WF
>Try and play some Gambit.>"You were unable to find a match in time. Please try again..."Jesus, Bungo. Gambit was all that was holding me from Sudoku.
DATTO IS LOSING HIS MIND
While it's annoying it was the wop that did it, I'm glad it wasn't Datto.
>>540670602how fragile is this mans ego
>>540670473Yeah the entire thing really was who got errored the most and by how much and specifically where. I remember teams in the running were watching other runs of people at Exhibition just to physically see Glyph placements and what the rooms looked like because they kept getting kicked and wanted to have a rough outline
My boy Vendetta, severely underrated solo autist, finally got a world's first
>>540670902>talk about Datto streaming the raid race >Salta clea->n-no not like that *bans you from chat*No wonder he nuked yt chat
>>540671116he already had one. sotp
>>540671205ohthat doesn't count lol
folks
with all the people i see with the renegades pre order emblem i think bungie will be fine
>>540671793>normal epic raid is going to have even less clears
>>540671793Why the fuck does he type like that
>>540671793HooooollllySO MVCH LOVE AND VALIDATION AND LEARNING FOLKS
post exotic catalyst
>>540672006some nutso probably told him saying guys was racist or something
>>540672069Filled DeterminationFully charged shots over-penetrate weaker combatants and cause a delayed Solar detonation with a brief scorching field.
>>540672167another raid exotic that gets glimmed and rusts in collections
>>540672167cool i dont have to do epic raid thats so bad
>>540672361>>540672396maven or some retard will make a video about how its meta soon
>>540672396Wait you gotta do the epic raid for the catalyst? Aw hell naw
>>540663312It's a man pretending to be a woman, any further distinction is tranny hair splitting
>we still have no raid exotic hand cannon
>>540672560yeah that was one of the main selling points for this raid
>>540672547>calling out maven of all youtuberswhy bring her up
>>540671793*Folxx
>>540672949she is a furry
quote from salt about the catalyst>solving this catalyst is like day one verity
>>540671793Transfolk like datto have not been enjoying it.
>>540673261What? He got it from boss drop. Wtf is there to solve exactly?
>>540673397he has no idea how to procc it kek
>>540673110Yeah its pretty weird desu but she's infinitely a more respectable destiny CC than zavlr.
>>540671793https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4P9LX54Yaus
>>540671793this guy getting fired will be the most satisfying one
>datto is melting downlol
>>540673560You take that back right now you fucking cocksucker Zavalr is our perfect little angel and we love her dearly here
made me check his stream why are his nails like that
bro what the fuck is this
>>540673940manchild activities (digital pokemon card drawing)
>>540673828>>540673940it's probably from some cosplay he did, did he go to any cons recently?
snazzy discovered a third damage phase that all the other teams who cleared before him didn't know about. the other teams brute forced two phase clears
>>540673986He’s literally just a faggot who paints his nails, the only acceptable way for a man to have his nails painted is if like your 5 year old daughter wants to do it, but as we all know, Datto’s “wife” is USED UP AND BARREN
>Datto still blaming his viewers while breaking downI can feel the crushing depression and uncertainty in him.
>THIS IS THE LAST TIME I'M HAVING ANY DESTINY VIEWERSHIP FOR THE REST OF MY CAREERAbsolutely buck broken
>>540673826>and we love her dearly hereFor being a slut maybe. Maven seems to actually be comfortable with herself enough to show her face on camera and even admit to being a furry despite the social stigma against it. Not only that but she makes decent and informative content while zavlr gets up to egirl activities.
>>540674601no way he said this
I'd Datto freaking out or something?
Is Datto actually having a meltdown or is this just fake newsI refuse to give him viewership
>>540674707He's just being passive agressive with his twitch chat, it's probably the most cynical and bitter I've ever seen him on stream
>>540674740It's a soft breakdown but you can just tell he's tired of doing this shit and in good jew fashion he hates his viewers.
Datto has been BROKEN
>>540612705Who are either of these people?
>>540674883Evanf1997 and CBgray, they are cringe and shitty slop tubers. Disregard this message
destiny confirmed salt won
>highest view count for Raid Race is 7.6K
>>540675093the race is over
>>540674990The guy that makes the raid race comp videos? He's gay?
>>540675224I have no fucking clue. It wouldn’t surprise me though.
>>540673110Wtf gross>>540674649>Maven seems to actually be comfortable with herself enough to show her face on camera and even admit to being a furry despite the social stigma against itThis is a bad thing
>>540675093Oh, already? Must've been a crappy raid.
>>540675364it's the same fucking raid from 2 months ago with a different final boss
>>540657917Remember, nubungie just nerfed the shit out of Lament just so they could make this axe(sword)
>the dps phase duration is luck based on purposeLMAO
>>540675558false
>Datto begging Mork for advice
>>540671793How the fuck does anybody in that building talk like this is the first time they made a video game
>>540674776Neat
So, did Bungie cook?
>>540676127because it at this point it probably is
>>540676240They did it with a second-hand Chinese manufactured air fryer but uh I guess so. No one is playing this bullshit in a month and half though
>>540669454>>540669459>>540669519>>540669556How does Shartagaypo's cum taste like...
Imagine not running well during the final boss
>>540674601Somebody clip asap and play it on all the tvs at Best Buy
>>540675843Morkchad stays fucking winning. That guy literally was their best player and the fact he said no to Datto's team for this raid again even when there was reschedules for all who wanted to do it AND Datto's team was lighthanded is comedy.
place your bets, which will survive longer?destiny rising or destiny 2
>>540677373Rising will hit end of service by Dec of next year.D2 will likely be dragged kicking, screaming, and shitting itself into at least 2027 despite a total pop of ~30k.
datto status?
>>540677373funnily enough, d2netease will pull the plug on rising in ~8 months
>>540677373Probably Rising at this state. Cause you figure Final Slop had the positive reaction but population cratered super fast, people got off, Bungie very much was planning to really downgrade D2 by a lot, and now it's very obvious they're trying to milk every fat lobotomized slob who drops tons of cash in EV til the lights shut off. I don't think they can sustain more years of this if this is Destiny now where there's effectively 2 seasons of actual stuff in them in the entire year.
>>540677569(Harrowed)
>>540677373how well is rising performing in china? tass was saying the game was made for the asian market, they didn't expect much westerners to care
>>540677796It's not even out in China yet I don't think
>>540677796Apparently hasnt launched in China yet.But even so, it is still severely underperforming compared to similar games with only ~$9M in revenue since launch. Total production cost is estimated to be ~$100M
The game we have loved for a decade has been dragged through the mud and held back since 2020 so Bungie could fart around on multiple canceled bullshit retarded fake games and a hero shooter Tarkov clone. Just in case you forgot! We could have had Forsaken Annual Pass tier years of content this whole time if they actually had their top talent at the studio focused on Destiny and hired externally for their incubation garbage.
>>540677647Rising is severely underperforming. It's made roughly $9m in revenue over its first 20 days (production costs estimated at $100m+).It's not out in China yet so we'll have to see how it does there. The game was obviously made with a Chinese audience in mind.https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2025/09/27/who-is-destiny-risings-audience-not-enough-people-says-revenue-report/
>>540678032You also figure Y1 and Y2 didn't even really have a ton monetized in EV, they obviously could paywalled EV shit as they do now and put plenty in the game. They just went up their ass with 10 different projects all on that stupid rona times hedged bet money. I heard rumor now is that Gummy Bears was actually going to be a Bungie goes back to goofy party Griffball games with Fall Guy like progression and then Fall Guys fell way the fuck off and now it's going to be Smash Bros clone or something? I wouldn't be surprised if Schrier goes missing under suspicion circumstance so there can be nobody to tell how dysfunctional shit was
>>540678251Didn't Bungie get Gummy Bears yanked out from under them by Sony?
>>540678070Wait why the hell is it not out there?
>>540678251Sounds like a mega flop no matter what they do
>coolest mechanics in the history of raids>nobody saw it because they boycotted destiny2
>>540678251Gummy Bears is not even a Bungie product anymore, Sony segmented that team off into their own studio because they probably recognized that they had too much potential to be chained to Bungie’s putrid corpse.
destiny would be dead even if they changed nothing. every expansion sells less and less every year. they can not continue to keep making the same game when it's failing even at when it is at its best. they had to make other games
3K hours after I switched to Steam, and I can't even stomach this fuckin game anymore. Log on for reset, woo some shit I can spend my billions of bright dust on (last season's silver-gated cosmetic), go to "portal", look around for a minute and leave. Just on the off-chance this game will be good again and I might even mog it. What the fuck is Bungie doing? Feels dead.
>>540678868redditfags got what they wanted. no more timegated pointless story that makes you run the same mission over and over with new voice linesinstead you get your hit of story content every 6 months and in the mean time streamers who main the game grind the same slop for weapons and a worlds first race every 3 monthseveryone got what they wanted
What have I missed in the past few hours? Datto crashing out?
>>540678551>coolest mechanics in the history of raidsElaborate.
>>540679062you do the final boss backwards lmoa, you start at enrage and undo his mechanics to start DPS
>>540679414That just sounds annoying honestly
>It's another episode of Datto and Skarrow throwing
>>540679037They were always whales despite the eververse bemoaning. I still subscribe to a few youtube destiny build faggots and I don't understand how they do it. THIS. HUNTER. BUILD. CHANGES. EVERYTHING. THIS. WARLOCK. BUILD. NUKES. THE. GAME. For what purpose? What's going on here? Everything in this game feels sunset. Tried playing pvp a month ago and the wait times for basic quickplay are immense. By the time I see 7/12 I just alt+F4. Who is responsible?
SepcialHero’s team cleared 3rd? Respect to the Arab Oil Prince
Mactics status?
>>540679526it's pretty clear after the final shape everyone was just looking for a reason to quit the game. every change pisses off someone new into quitting
>>540679526>THIS. HUNTER. BUILD. CHANGES. EVERYTHING. THIS. WARLOCK. BUILD. NUKES. THE. GAME.That's just sloptuber sensationalism. I see it all the fucking time whenever I look up warframe videos about a particular frame or weapon (it's pure clickbait made by one of the same five channels 9 times out of 10), and I've heard HD2 youtube channels are disgusting levels of slop all the time.
Over/under on datto shooting himself on stream?
>>540679749This is true, but at least when I read THIS. TITAN. BUILD. SHOULD. BE. ILLEGAL. 2+ years ago they were onto something, and the game felt good, alive. I think about the potential during your first encounter on the Cosmodrome. White gear, a fuckin captain what is that shit JESUS. The x-files marvel dr who story didn't try to scrape any of that mystery or intrigue. Felt like a chore, a job. and surprise all your gear is shit now. Play on players :^)
>>540678348NTA but there is a protracted approval process to release a game in the CN market. Minimum turnaround is 90 days, and it takes most publishers 6~12 months to get a game out because of this approval process.
>>540680164>Play on players :^)I came back for twee weeks after almost 6 years of being away, and I got the impression that bungie probably hates new players.
>>540680164it just sounds like you're burnt out, you're not going to have any sense of wonder when you have 4000 hours in a game. you're just chasing the feeling of nostalgia and you will never be satisfied
>>540674685He actually did, it was regarding his ad revenue from streams going to shit because nobody is going to watch more Destiny 2 after the raid, so he may as well be going full jew mode on his twitch viewers while he can
>>540680326But enough about Bungie, let’s talk Destiny 2
>>540680426>nobody is going to watch more Destiny 2 after the raidthen he and his streaming buddies need to use their contacts to light a fire under Bungie's ass
>>540680326Nta but this is pretty much exactly me now and it sucks man, last season pass was the first time since they introduced them I didn’t finish it I just couldn’t bring myself to do it it felt weird at first but now that I ripped the bandaid off I really just don’t care
>>540674601>no clipLies.
>>540680426Seeing Datto makes me glad that Aztecross is able to actually do decently with variety content, and I don't even watch him all that often. Maybe it's because Cross looks like a presentable human being instead of an effeminate gremlin.
>>540680532this seems to be a common sentiment across all of gaming, you see codfags wanting to go back to the "golden" era of cod back when christmas noobs were a thing the sad part they do not realize is 1. if cod released today as it were back then it would not be popular. player tastes have changed and 2. the gaming market is completely different. gaming is not a niche hobby anymore played by teen boys during the summer, many people have made it their careers to play games and kids grow up watching streamers. the skill floor is much higher
Kneel.
>>540680836Wtf he already got the new belt?
>>540680634The difference between Cross and Datto is that he can actually play other games pretty decently and is being honest with his viewers about his motivations (takes sponsorships and deals to make money for the family). Datto in comparison is an insecure corporate bootlicker that spends his cash on shoes he’s never going to wear and gambling trading cards while praising Bungie’s minimum effort but staying quiet when shit sucks so his wife can score a mocap job at them.
>>540680836Lmao that’s a good shoop
>>540656863>to unlock a gunIts actually a Sword I mean a Siva Axe uh I mean Quicksilver Cloudstrider Axe
>>540680326I'm just mad at the potential, the good times after the game was very low, but those don't happen anymore. No Taken King, April Update, RoI, Go Fast, Forsaken, none of it. Just low after low. Certainly burnt, and this is a product with a shelf life. I'm sipping milk from the jug and I'm not sure if that funny taste is from the crusty rim or that last cup has soured. Sooner or later, that guy's gonna post his Truth for the last time.
>>540680634>Maybe it's because Cross looks like a presentable human being instead of an effeminate gremlin.Kinda yeah. Chat talks shit to cross all the time and he'll take it and fire back both playfully and seriously. He also has genuine discussions and is willing to hear people out that have different views on destiny than him meanwhile datto cries and shuts off a livestream chat the moment he gets some heat lol. Cross for the most part is just a likeable dude desu
>>540681424>Game bad>Why?>Because game bad + u r a shillThat was Datto's chat on youtube and it needed to be shut down
>>540668552trvkeThe encounter was datamined months ago I was surprised when we didn't get it in the regular version.What really happened was that Bungie hadn't finished the full raid in time so split it into 2 versions.Now we finally get the finished Raid but instead of simply updating the Raid they have to milk it twice in some kinda scummy penny pinching way.Everything about this expansion feels nickel and dimed I am surprised their is no new "EPIC RAID ARMOUR SET" in Eververse or some gun ornament set for only the Epic Raid weapons.
>>540681424>He also has genuine discussions and is willing to hear people outThat's also true. And there's a desire to be honest about how things are and why he plays, which is more than what can be said for a fucking heap of people that play and talk about D2.
>>540680836actually its getting revoked someone on his team got caught cheating
>>540681993Holy shit what? No way you're lying
>>540681123I'm just glad that my recent foray back into D2 didn't ruin the memories I had from when I started playing. I still remember doing Eater of Worlds with this general. Good times.>>540668552What is with the battered housewives that play this game and the mantra of "bungie cooked?"
>>540680836
>>540681004I just realized datto is a manchild. He’s around the same age as cross but just pathetic and married a barren old woman
>>540681598It’s plausible there were layoffs when this was all being worked on and people specifically tweeting that they were mid way through the project. The fucked up thing to me is just how Bungie now wanted everything with Destiny to be on such short shelf lives so you had this shit with only getting T5s off Desert Epic but that was only gonna be loot that got be relevant for like 2 months because it was happening so late. Imagine if Bungie didn’t cave to people obviously being pissed off and said, yep the newest raid only gives you its best shit for this long. Enjoy. It’s very clear that was the original intent and they probably wanted to get away with it because so few people raid and they figure well the idiots still playing will shoot dregs in portal. It’s all so tiring
>>540682520Meanwhile I'm pretty sure cross is soon to have another child and is not only making more money than ever but is potentially at the height of his popularity
>>540679526This was something that hit me pretty quick as somebody who pretty much ran multiple raids weekly with clan always having different stuff for the particular raid, there’s just not really any content to go ape shit over and run all sorts of things. Even more so you’re actively punished now playing across classes and wanting to do something not widely synergistic stat wise with the upgrading costs. Not to say you should go crazy to play a C- build but I get people feeling a lot is off the table
>>540682520I feel like this >>540629721 is somehow a step below "manchild.">>540682807And he's even had opportunities to play with interview DE staff members.
>>540679494Why?
>>540683075*play with and interview
>>540678070I would actually be a bit saddened if Rising underperforms in China too. Rising has its flaws but there's aspects to it that I still like more than current D2 like the clan housing, fishing, card minigames and sparrow racing as just some well needed variety besides just shooting. Not to mention how nice it is to explore more of Earth and having going to space in the elevator feel like an actual event, instead of exploring so much of the galaxy and having the planets relegated to a few explorable areas tops. Yeah its a mobile gacha but it was so much fun despite that and showed that there is still life in this series yet, especially since they were not bound by "canon" and introduced an alternate setting/universe as a way to start fresh.I still hope Netease makes enough money to keep the game going more than a year because this is the adrenaline shot the series badly needs. D2 currently is nothing more than a horrifically mutilated husk of its Forsaken/Shadowkeep glory and it looks like we're going to have nothing but CoO/Warmind-sized expansions meant to sustain the game (or rather eververse) in the future. Its a different kind of despair compared to current Halo.
>>540682520What’s that saying with some people you end up staying the age you got famous at? He got extremely lucky right place and time but not charismatic enough to do anything bigger or wide spread. I mean he’s clearly crumbling and full of shit with all the “yeah I got some projects I’ve been working on that’ll be out soon” and then he’ll make a comment about how he basically figured it wouldn’t be worth time or money doing. I’m curious how much money a lot of these guys are even making now with how Destiny has been what it’s been.
>>540683348It's weird how I'm not particularly bothered by nu-halo sucking, but Destiny will probably always bum me out every once in a blue moon when I think about it.Maybe because I can actually go back and play the Halo games that I liked. The D2 that I liked flat-out no longer exists.
Someone send datto this site
>>540683694we just need the game frozen in time at the end of heresy
>>540683928>at the end of heresy* at Beyond Light -vaulting
>>540684042What I would give to run scourge of the past again man, hell even spire of stars
>>540684042not possible for technical reasons sadly
>>540684042The Season of Arrivals build could become a game on its own and would be miles better than what we currently have.
>>540684250I miss crown bros… I need the titan helmet on my new account
>>540683694Yeah, like you said the D2 everyone likes no longer exists. You can't replay it like you can with D1 on PS3 or PS4 because of the "Destiny Content Vault" where they dont even know how to add back in the Red War/CoO/Warmind/Forsaken campaigns and associated content back into the game. But even if 343 drops the ball with their next game you at least have the MCC, old Halo ports with fan mods, fan games, people even are finding ways to bring back Halo 3 on 360 back online. But you can't mod D2 and there's no way to have private servers to replay the game at its best.
>>540684519Crown was so good, the only raid I really don’t miss that they vaulted is regular leviathan
>>540684726Meanwhile I miss Leviathan the most because exploring the underbelly was super fun even while solo, then guiding your team through the more convoluted areas of the maze to skip to the next encounter faster.
>>540684826Yeah that aspect of it was dope I just didn’t really love most of the encounters except for calus he was a good fight
>>540684826I didn’t really like any of the levi raids aside from CoS, but the fact that I can never run them again pisses me off like crazyEveryone at bungie involved with the decision to delete raids needs to be strung up by their entrails
>>540684934I liked the Gardens just cause a stealth encounter is pretty interesting and it's mechanics meant that sustained DPS wasn't all that viable
Really nigga
>>5406808365, all I see are 4 reprised *...
>>540685723>very much looking forward to the next one
is there any additional lore in for this epic raid?
>loreUr NGMI bro
>>540686091Remember the in-universe pain point that backwards time travel isn't possible, how that was repeated several times, how it was a key aspect of Lodi's characterization? Well in the final encounter (that 99% of people will never see), you time travel backwards
>>540686514>backwards time travel isn't possible, how that was repeated several times, how it was a key aspect of Lodi's characterizationI remember almost nothing about EoF is that really true? Cause we've already done backwards time travel with getting Saint back
>>540686010who's gonna tell him?
>the epic raid is spectacular>the atmosphere is comfy>the community ruined everythingYou are just a bunch of sad men, try to cultivate your inner child
>the epic raid is spectacular>the atmosphere is comfyhow much is bungie paying people for this me ponders
>>540686724Our Saint is still buried in the Infinite Forest, the one currently in the tower is still a PHONY
>>540688296The old one wasn’t a faggot too and would have killed Mithrax on the spot as he should have
>>540688083The epic raid is very good, Desert is generally pretty much a top 3 raid in the series, but who the fuck would describe the atmosphere as "comfy"? The raid is incredibly stressful, the community is justifiably shitting on the game left, right, and center, Ash and Iron is a fucking disaster. Nothing regarding D2 right now, from any perspective, is comfy in any way.
>>540688083Its probably Bungie employees doing it themselves for free. Like why would they pay money for people to defend it on a taiwanese knitting imageboard when they're paying people $500 to test Marathon?
>>540688083>misusing wordskill yourself /v/turd
Datto status?Cross status?
It's their game. They are the creators, the authors. They do what the fuck they want to do. You don't like it? You don't play it!
>>540691596A lot of people agree with that it seems
>>540691912A lot of people are waiting to reach their destination called Tau Ceti IV
>play solo or fireteam ops>get scraps>play one game of trials>showered in dropsi see how it is...
sweet sackle cleared
>>540631425This but its marty getting fired for being a republican lol
Imagine being a streamer and thousands of retards you wouldn’t care about if they died give you money regularly for no reason
>Almost all the Exotics in Rising are actually taken from different timelines by a group of secret lightbearers>Chaperone comes from a timeline where Amanda died with her mother>Crimson was taken from some random Guardian in exchange for fixing his gambling debt>Polaris Lance is traded for Ana getting her memories back>They just try and grind for Jotunn like everybody else before getting fed up and stealing someone elses when they get it
>>540684250Um new content is better sweety like Desert Perpetual, Dessert Perpetual EPIC XD, Sundered Doctrine, Crota's End 2.0 dick smash mode oh wait thats not new content, Root of Nightmares, Kings Fall............
>Maybe the best raid in Destiny history>unique mechanics>hard enough to be a raid, easy enough to be playedThe raid team, the art team and the story team are the best. The only problem in bungie (and almost everywhere else) is the marketing/executive team because they are not making a game, they are making money.
>>540684510What's funny about this is Bungie thinks that the Sieve activity was similar to arrivals which shows how out of touch with the game they are.
>>540649327Where do you think you are?
>>540692578Pretty sure the whole stuff is fake. Bots, fake donors (random twitch employees),etc.
>This final boss is incredible. The setting and the mechanic being actual time travel is cool shit.They unironically made a kino raid during the shittiest expansion.
>>540692716Imagine if instead of these 2 versions of the same boring raid designed for streamers we got Wrath back or even Levi. Hell I would give up all the Raids since Lightfall if they brought Levi back.
Bungie cookedDoomers lostBuy Renegades
>>540693587>Wrath back or even Levi.Lorewise, it's absurd.
Datto status?
uhhhhhhhhh bungie bros how do we spin this onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6P4b0_5_PUM
cross finally cleared hobgoblin. now to final boss.
>>540693762>Lorewise, it's absurd.as if the current story isn't an asspul?There is no lore anymore.
>>540693892just wiped in final
>>540692768>destiny>2025 story team>goodehh
>>540694190
Yeah I’m thinking bungie is back
imagine if they released this entire raid and its epic difficulty in an expansion that wasn't garbageimagine the hopium that would have gotten
>>540688554Even paying people, Marathon's test has peaked at like, sub-90 players.
>>540696060did anyone ever break NDA and disclose what the gift cards were good for? because if it was just the bungie store that'd be hilarious
>>540696137I think they’re amazon lol
>>540696517Eh, I would've taken that if they offered me desu
>>540696517$500 Amazon isn't bad. I had a job that gave us bonuses in gift cards, and Amazon is great for covering incidentals that you'd otherwise have to dip into your bank account to pay for. I'd do it if that was the offer.If it's something stupid like Spotify or, god forbid, the Bungie Store, then it's worth basically nothing.
>>540680836Post the Nezarec version.
>>540692604Queensbreaker (called Royal Contravene in Rising but with the same effects as currently in D2) was taken from the Spider's tomb on the Reef.For additional hilarity: Crimson's lore tab mirrors the original lore tab for it in Destiny 2 but with the twist that a character from Rising appears in front of the same Guardian and offers to fix whatever problems they have in exchange for Crimson.
>>540697840
>>540698094Thank you, Anon, I chuckle every time I see this.
Did /ourgirl/ finish?
>get to lighthouse>tier 3I went flawless for THIS saint?
>>540698662the rewards from the chest are based on your winstreakwhich is retarded when you're already at 450+ power and get 2-5 tier 5 drops from every match even when you lose
>>540698716this is so "cooked"
Macdaddy status, mac maniacs are we finished???
Why is no one posting Bungie clearly cooked with the raid
>>540698489He cleared like 30 minutes before you posted this so you probably know by now
>>540701929>cooked>re-used raid content from D1 which was also shown as a "trailer" that leaked two timesOHOHOHOHOHO HAHAHAHAHA
>>540683564He said it in a stream that his Salvation’s Edge race stream was apparently the most profitable in his career but didn’t disclose how much he’s made
Can I cum back and play this game(destiny two) again now
>>540706474Hahahahahahahahaha, nah, shills are on overtime trying to convince people the (((epic))) raid is good, it's not, games still bad, will continue to be bad.
>>540706474a shotgun blast to the face is better than playing this game
>>540706630Game is still dogshit, the epic raid is absolutely fantastic though.
>>540708831Yeah so good everyone decided not to touch it
>>540693329>time travel>nothing like Curse of Osiris with different environments>its just teleporting you around instead with some textBack in the cuck cage hopefag.
>giving retarded animeposters a speck of a reply
let me just load up the final boss in the new epic raid. wait a second
>ripping redditard clips when you can go on youtube and find the actual trailer used
>>540706474There has never been a worse time to play Destiny, don't bother. Check back in Summer 2026 to see if they unraped the game.
>>540709817>please post youtube links here
>>540709854Not him but what could they possibly do to unrape the game? Seems pretty clear that feedback is being outright ignored despite how bad reception is getting
>>540709713reminder that this area is still in the ps360 versions of Destiny 1 on Mars
>>540709713Omg they are teh epic callback!!! So cool I literally clapped
>>540710231Wait a minute, EPIC callback??? like the EPIC RAID!?!?!?!?
>>540710018They would have to swallow their pride and undo the portal and new leveling system, while bringing in a ton of old "vaulted" content and great new content. There's ~850 people working at Bungie, they can do something but they're just choosing not to. They would need to massively overdeliver, but they egghead fuck probably will never let that happen under his watch.
>>540710231>>540710302>he supports thiscringe
>>540710345>They would have to swallow their pridename 1 time Bungie has ever done this? They would rather piss on everyone calling them stupid than actually admit that they're, in fact, stupid
>>540710345It really has gotten so bad that they need to immediately put down the hatred for the old content and bring it back if they want to have the game be alive in a year>>540710517None of the current devs have pride in all honesty, it isn't like its the same devs that actually made that old content anymore with how they hire subhumans every years to replace the competent people
>>540710517>name 1 time Bungie has ever done this?I can't. Bungie will die in the near future. They have nothing left that can make money to support the studio and keep Sony happy.
So... now what?
>>540710668>None of the current devs have pride in all honesty, it isn't like its the same devs that actually made that old content anymore with how they hire subhumans every years to replace the competent peopleNta but I disagree. They keep doubling down on stupid decisions that nobody likes, that's either pride or stupidity but to me it seems to be a combination of both. They're not all mouth-breathing retards over there, but a lot of them are. They don't listen to anyone anymore, they feel they know best every time. But that's obviously not the case, just look at the dwindling player count. I understand that you can't listen to everyone, and they shouldn't. But they don't listen to anyone. The game has no vision anymore, they're just seeing what they can get away with and only admit to some minor things, like jewing us out of Iron Banner armor to put it in the eververse. To me, that seems like pride. In their eyes, we're the stupid Chud gamers and will take what we can get from Bungie, "creators of Halo and Destiny when it was good".
>>540711278Portal or wait for renegays to totally save the game
>>540711278Launch D1
>>540711278We wait for Marathon to release and watch it kill Bungie.
>>540711278Open Raid/Dungeon report and reminisce of the good times you had in these past ten years
>>540711328I am having a hard time refuting this one due to how speculative the subject is, you make a great point to arrogant old devs but I just can't see how they could have grown arrogant in a few years when the content has been generally received lukewarm or poorly.
>>540712006>I just can't see how they could have grown arrogant in a few yearsWhat if they always were like that? Maybe Bungie just has a habbit of hiring likeminded people, arrogance included. Just look at some of the people fired last year and the one thing they all have in common is a big ego.
>>540712260I don't know about always, but perhaps just with Destiny as a franchise, since after all the production of Destiny 1 did have a lot of people leave due disagreements, not too far fetched to say this was destiny (lol) for Bungie at some point, where in they kept bleeding real devs while hiring like minded people, you really do have a point for this one now I am curious to when the true turning point was.
>>540710465
>>540712006I think it's just the company culture, it's not deserved at this point all. It used to work out for them every time, we would still play and people would still spend money in the eververse; even after the DCV and Lightfall. That's not the case anymore, but they still think Renegades will bring everyone back or everyone will go to Marathon. Could come down to a lot of the management just staying for their retention bonuses for the Sony acquisition. Full payouts are due by ~July 2026, that's why Pete just left after the 2025 milestone. He could have stayed another year for some more but then Marathon would be his problem to deal with.
>>540712656I want to say either sometimes after Rise of Iron while working on Destiny 2 or when they left Activision and started like 7 other projects while opening another studio in a different state
>>540711278>Exotic mission will surely save D2!!!-Copeniggers
>>540712701Good corp side of the argument, didn't even think about that>>540712847I want to be more generous with the timeline and say after Activision split but I would not be much surprised if it was planned far in advance, sadly it isn't something we will know for certain unless the company goes under and someone comes forward to tell the story, all I know is that Destiny 1 was entirely disconnected due to active malice for the old employees (Christopher Barrett lol) so it probably happened in D2's lifetime.
>>540712656The industry chatter and testimonials you’d find floating out there was Bungie was in the stone age running things insanely ass backwards which if you have a pair of eyes is very apparent when you size up a lot through the years. I think another side of this “new era of Destiny” is there’s no good marketable way to sell what the game’s state is in or even how there’s physically less shit in a year of Destiny. Hey come play Destiny we made less and (at first) put rigid extreme soft sunset expirations on your shit. The fact we even got the amount of absolute pieces of shit tone deaf twabs in rapid succession has to be a record, Dmg unironically typing out “go to cryptarch to decode engrams, just like D1” is ridiculous
>>540699816I only know of Matis who’s Mactics?
>>540713102>saveIts going to help destiny not save it. Now the roadmap (hopemap) on the other hand...
>>540713753I’ve got a bridge to sell to YOU big fella
>>540694190It’s obviously people running afk macros to farm, I don’t trust bungie being competent enough to make bots
>>540713427Being in the stone age would be a good thing though wouldn't it? Since stone age bungie made Halo, obvious misinterpretation aside, I completely agree they have no way to market it anymore due to content removal, they clearly did not think of the future when removing mandatory context content. TWIDS have been shit since the dawn of time though IMO, fucking hate that writers they (((hired))) to do that shit
>>540685723This slob has been trying to stay relevant for years at this point after he lived in the closet of the 100 Thieves gamer compound and got embarrassed in Apex by literal children
>>540713807erm why would I want to buy a bridge?
>>540714026I was watching the one Sweatcicle ramble about player counts and the thing that jumped out at me that answered his own questions was he literally couldn’t remember when Plunder came out or even the past few years of what was the recent dlc and/or season for the years. People talk about a D3 could build so much hype but I genuinely do wonder those who haven’t been an addict to this game that would bite because we basically have sat not only longer with D2 but D2 in a state that’s been an extremely mixed bag longer than the complete existence of D1 and Bungie now has a much longer lasting negative reputation than the good. I played extremely brief amounts of D1 and I didn’t get into the fold til D2 launch and basically my entire vet friend group kept saying how D2 was gonna be awesome, only game you need to build a PC for, etc etc and obviously it went over like a wet fart but for that moment I “got” why there was all that hype when the potential was so ripe and massive. Right now Bungie’s so off course that I’m not even sure they’d do Destiny 3 even remotely decent. We’ve got compounding interest of Bungie with a horrible track record, we know there’s studio dysfunction and they’re all just but saying hey we don’t give a fuck anymore please spend silver.
I'm playing Rising.
did the epic raid save us yet
>>540715451It did 400k players on steam right now
>>540715029Oh for sure, D3 right now would be a disaster due to negative PR thats been happening for a while, it should have been done at peak popularity or when the decline initially started like D1 into D2 if it were to happen at all. At this point I would really say that Bungie should prepare an send off to D2, and if they were to make a D3, completely, fully, entirely, have it unrelated in a broad sense to D2, as in they'd need to do a new narrative structure or even some sort of spinoff for it to work. They've buried Destiny 2 so hard that D3 would not work unless it was a different game without relation to D2 like D2 had to D1. It sucks that it had come to this but the lardass devs working on it most likely couldn't pull it off without ripping off other media and it flopping anyway.
>>540715291I'm playing Silent Hill f and pretty fucking good
>>540715451The raid was indeed epic, unironically the best. The community? Not the best.
>>540670171I got banned from Cross' chat once for calling him a bitch anytime he sees Hynra in his lobby and leaving, totally worth it. My favorite part of Trials discourse is the people who just want a carry whining about less skilled players in the playlist matching with them and then retards like Jake that want them there so he can farm them and it's painfully clear the assmunchers won that particular war or he'd still be grifting Trials. If the man had any balls he'd just fuck off and play something else or get a real job.
>>540716286The entire PvP situation with D2, Trials Discourse included, makes me really happy that Rising said "Fuck you, you can have the most unbalanced, uncaring, mess of Control, commentated by the shittiest AI we could find, and only on the weekends"
>>540716286>sees Hynra in his lobby and leavingdoes he really?
>>540715728I can’t even imagine the hubris of the loads of projects and expecting to just run the market with publishing so many games. Or I’m just dumb and it was always going to be a scam dud just like streaming services slop and how every suit is a junkie trying to see the behaviors of 2020 and swearing it’ll get there. It is funny looking back at old bungie staff tweets promoting the work at Bungie messages “we’re the good company” in light of act blizz scandals of recent past and all that.
>>540716927They all do,Hynra used to have montages of people quitting and raging on him
>>540716980They should have milked more breasts if this was going to be the end of the line anyway, always the inclusive devs that do this sick freak shit, I can only imagine the controversy that will come to public knowledge when bungie shuts down
>>540709713>we are focusing on new content>every "new" thing is just copy pasted but worse versions of d1 shitBungie are over what a sham studio
>>540715029Rising has at least shown there's some interest in a new Destiny game. There's a lot of people that tried that game out because it's not made by Bungie and overall liked it but aren't interested in a gacha shooter mobile game with no native pc port.I'm sure that if Destiny 3 is going to be made at some point it has to be made by a different Sony studio and distance itself from Bungie and its employees as much as possible to generate any profits.
>>540718389Beyond Light is D3 kill yourself.
Is it good?
>>540718468Beyond Light COULD have been Destiny 3 but if it launched in the state it did but as a new game people would have disregarded it as another Destiny 2 launch repeat
>>540718506used to be extremely good, dunno if it is now.
>>540718506Not featured :^)
>>540718506'twas my favorite D2 exotic before Necrochasm came back
>>540718506>>540718783>>540718816>Not sweet businessglim
>>540711278I'm waiting for a buddy to get back from vacation so we can do the epic raid. Until then, Rising and Warframe.
>>540717579An anon on here jokes that Cozmo has pest dirt on people to finesse a fake position but I could buy it this late, he's not done shit for ages. Hippy's madeup "multimillionaire hush money turned down" makes you wonder if somebody got that muff fungus
>>540719067>muff fungusFucking stop
>>540719013Not him but how do you deal with input delay on Rising? I tried it on PC but it was noticeably a mobile game despite running at 120FPS, unless you are on a phone.>>540719067I ain't wondering anymore, at this point there is clearly a conspiracy level shitstorm brewing at bungie headquarters that will burst soon.
>>540718816Irrelevant to the post
>>540719359I'm playing on PC using Mumu, i haven't noticed any input delay, at least not in any way that it impacted the gameplay. The only thing that's kinda laggy is getting on my sparrow. I9 9900k, 3090, 32gb ram.
>>540719359>>540721806If you have a active window that's running with the emulator at the same time, you'll get noticeable input lag, like a stream or a youtube video etc
>>540721806>>540722901Well shit I guess I was just doing it wrong, time to give it another go then
>>540723231You have to set mumu up to use the High preset, 120fps and the S25 Ultra as your phone model to get the most out of it.Then ingame you turn everything up except volumetric fog because I think its bugged atm.
>>540723381Thank you, definitely giving this a shot later today, is Rising different enough to give a new spin or should I expect the same general progression?
>>540723617It's way different and the progression is sorta gated due to it being a mobile game.I would suggest only focusing on 1 character. Save all your draws for Estela as she is the strongest character currently but if you can get Ning Fei from the Blue non limited draw you should be cooking.There is also a feature that lets you reset your characters before finishing the campaign so you can regain the materials spent it's kinda like a tutorial but it isn't made clear anywhere.
>>540724320>Gated due to it being a mobile gameSame shit as D2 desu, I will keep these tips in mind, hopefully this will scratch the Destiny itch while D2 dies or recovers
>>540718816That's crazy they introduced that trials only ornament while it isn't even featured.
>The epic raid will save the g-Oh...
s-shut up!
>Completion Chart>1st blue bar is Root>2nd blue bar is SE>Orange bar is DPRoot was "too easy" we can't have raids like that again gatekeep the casuals! W-what do you mean no-one is playing the raids anymore and LFG is dead?
>>540725727
>>540725727They only need 10k players for Destiny2 to be profitable
>>540726653Root level of difficulty should have been new norm>>540727053 You are not wrong, they got snoys to fund them both as players and org
>>540642618>That's completely trueNo because I need other people to do this specific fun thing so if no one does the fun thing, because theres no reason for them to do it, then it doesnt happen.
Marathon status?
>>540695352The momentum? Built.
>>540726653It still sits so incredibly wrong with me how Desert was tested specifically with min/maxxing retards throwing the kitchen sink at full brute force and was artificially inflated with less player impact because of that. Bungie also flipflopping on what they felt with swaps is a point made even more retarded. There has to be an easier middleground that poses challenge and isn't total bullshit, prior to SE I'd say Vow contest was this just right point but now SE looking a little more sane. And this is content we even get less of and has the looming axe of soft sunsetting.
>>540726653>years and years of making raids at a good difficulty level that pleases most players>release root>feedback overall says it was undercooked and felt like a 6 man dungeon (it did)>kneejerk react and make the next raid the hardest in the franchise>players cope and say this is ok. its the final raid of the 10 year saga >Player numbers die. LFG becomes a ghost town>make the next raid even worse. at a time when no one is playing. Cater everything to streamers. >Lfg dies even harder>make an EPIC raid, with more mechanics. Double down on everything at a time when player peaks are barely 20k>almost no interest on twitch. Teams openly quitting and not participating I havent logged in in over a month. I’m just here to laugh.
>>540667439>that descriptionI dont even need to ask who it is to know its that filthy kike nigger who is responsible for so many BULLSHIT nerfs. I hope he tries fortnite or any other FPS and gets just fucking melted in every game.
>>540727838Root of Nightmares was like the 9/11 of Destiny 2
>>540728360for me its shadowkeep
>>540728360The deleting of our paid content was the 9/11 of Destiny
>>540728360Ur a retard
>>540726653>>540727838>raids dont matter cause 90% of the playerbase doesnt raid>raids matter and if you make raids too hard the 90% that dont ever raid wont play the gamePick one. I choose the first, raidfags overestimate how important they are to the games life because everyone here focuses on streamers but the actual playerbase quit cause the gamepley gets stale, the story gets worse, the portal fucking sucks, and there are better games.
>>540729276I agree that raids are overestimated how important they are, I do however think that they are necessary to retain a certain contigent of the playerbase. Since Bungie has decided to further alienate those that did engage with raid content at this point they could stop making raids entirely and barely anything would change since the only people left playing are the players that don't play raids and the sweaty nerds that want CBT raids every year.The sweat nerds are in a incredibly small minority now.
The only acceptable raids for casual players really (currently available).Vault of GlassKing's FallThey want some light challenge? Garden of GambitDeep Clovis CryptLight to Medium?Last WishCropta's EndMedium to Hard?Vow of the DROWNDROWNDROWNRoot of Nightmares (Planets still filter people)Hard to punch my fucking balls?Sneed's EdgeThe Desert AsscrackNow the BEST raids to introduce new players and casuals to (if they still existed)?LeviathanEater of WorldsSpire of Stars (The GOAT)Scourge of the PastCrown of Sorrow
>>540725727Still >75% positive. These reviews are totally written by humans, btw.
>>540730358>Destiny 2 isn't just a game. Its a lifestyle. Its a religion.It may be ai generated but it definitely got that down. Some people really do treat the game like that as seen with the BDF and redditors
>>540731052bdf niggers worship it, yeah
>>540731052>>540731184mgdf coming out strong today
>>540730358written by an AI or a jeettaking all bets people!
>>540731969>It isn't just... It is... It is...Is one of the telltale signs of AI nowadays. AI fucking loves this construction.
>>540722901>like a stream or a youtube video etcOh yeah, i don't ever do that so maybe that explains why i didn't run into any issues.
>>540730056Despite Crown’s opening being like paint drying, that raid is imho one of the best uses of a small amount of space, tight mechanics, people split it pairs carrying their little role and shared responsibility to recover. I really miss it. Scourge rules too and that’s a good itch to scratch with how much action exists and it’s straight forward enough to get acclimated
Destinycucks, you guys doing okay? I'm hearing worse news than usual.
>>540736294I'm playing the phone game
>>540730056>Spire of StarsPeople got filtered by throwing the balls. I've never seen anything like it.
>>540736294Nobody on this general actually plays the game we just like watching Bungie crash and burn spectacularly.
>>540737470I've never seen balls fall through the floor since either
>>540731052
kek cross is heated
>>540738387what happened?
Starbakers??
>>540739121bungle and chat
>Netease Destiny Rising Interview
>>540738356Anybody who mentions the artstyle nowadays is fucking retarded considering there's been no cohesive visual style for years now
>>540739121He was in general just letting out some stream lightly ranting and talking smack on Les and the team lel. He's also sick and has something going on with his throat so because of yesterday he believes he's got 12 hours tops before it gets to the point where he can't continue playing and has gotta go back to the doc
>>540738356>Art styleYou go to the tower and you'll see a pink Darth Vader titan, 7 super blacked huntards and a warlock wearing the Fortnite armor
>>540741579That's capitalist art style, not Destiny2 art style.
>>540739368Bungie needs to learn from Netease in terms of playtesting and onboarding, there's zero excuse for Shadowkeep and Beyond Light's tutorials being so bad when D1 and vanilla D2's were just fine.
>>540730056>d2 croptas end>acceptable raids for casual playerslol
>>540743115oh i didnt see the some challenge part oops hahaignore me im just retarded
maybe we should just stop making these
>>540710517I remember Hippy was aggressively shilling Lightfall as a great expansion and tried to divert any and all criticism towards the 'you hate Nimbus, you hate minorities' angle, and then the game director just said 'oops, Lightfall was in fact a poor expansion that was poorly received'.
>>540744156
>>540743881Lightfall was a great expansion, the last that really feels Destiny2 with an epic campaign where you were the hero, tons of good activities and side quests, a new power and an open destination. It had also the best seasons after Beyond Light.
>>540744191shut up nigger, I'll rape you
>>540739368>every single thing in Rising is reviewed and partially co-designed by BungieNow that's something i didn't expect.
>>540730056>best raids in your list are conveniently the ones that are vaultedjust say you want them back
>>540741579Oddly enough, Fortnite armors were not the worst shit they added.
>>540744935what it means is that they use pre existing assets / ideas (art) make it a thing and notify bunjew about it.Maybe before bunjew failed to deliver they would wait for bunjew approval, but not in Rising.
>>540741768It's one and the same now enjoy the fortnitification expect a marvel expansion by next year
>>540745241still cringe
he’s been buck broken KEK
