This is what always gets me back, even though I never stay around for too long anymore. That said, if Bungie updates the PS5 version to fully utilize the Duelsense, I might go on a months long D2 binger. 

In a way, destiny has become my favorite TV show. Every week, I log in Tuesday with my roomates and we run through the story beats. The last few seasons have been great from that perspective; you can get in and out in a couple of hours with a new gun or two, a sense of progression, and some interesting narrative to…

Yeah, and you can even blow that out into games as a whole. The people who are on this site or posting on reddit or tweeting at game devs are a fraction of a fraction of the people who play any game. Definitely important to remember.

I treat No Man’s Sky in that manner.  I’ve had that since launch and have seen tons of changes in that time.  It’s my chillout, Saturday morning cup of coffee game.  I don’t play it every day.  But I certainly enjoy the time I do spend with it.  I currently have a few games spinning right now (Watch Dogs: Legion,…

I got a Series X last month and decided to finally give Destiny a try. I gotta be honest: I love playing it even though it’s frequently inscrutable and mind-bogglingly complex at times. Why are there so many different currencies? Why is the leveling so complex? If it wasn’t for the internet and reddit I’d have NO IDEA…

It’s funny. I used to think when you first started covering this game that it was kind of a tortured beat for you to walk. But reading this makes it sound like you would be playing the game even if you didn’t have to cover it.

For me personally, it’s a little from column A and a little from column B. The grind of just endlessly slaughtering the same minions ad nauseum wears thin over time. Despite the impeccable gameplay and the spectacle of it all. That’s fun for a while. But it’s not substantial enough to take my time away from other…

This is the reason I keep coming back to Destiny, and only very sporadically play Warframe. One is an impossibly refined game where every feature is polished to a default and which focuses on the quality of a select few activities. The other is a mess of a level design and core combat gameplay on which tons and tons…

Me and my best friend have lived states apart since I started college, graduated college, started grad school, graduated grad school, moved to another state, got married, and had a kid (due in March). The only thing that keeps our friendship alive and connected is video games and the only video game that has remained…

I’ve been playing Destiny (1 and 2) pretty much since the D1 beta days. I’ve skipped a month or two here and again but been more or less playing for the entire 7 years. I look back at my time really fondly. It’s not a perfect game by any means but I cannot think of any game that I’ve seen this amount of updates to…

“Bungie has managed to partition out new content and patches so that nearly every week brings with it something else to check out”

I wish I could still love Destiny. I was absolutely excited about it when it was announced. My wife and I had been playing it since the original Destiny’s alpha.  We bought two launch PS4s so we could play it together. And we did play it a lot.  But right around the time it took us to get through Destiny 2 we were…

And with games in particular, I personally (understanding I’m not everyone) almost never replay games, and if I do I don’t care about my old save games. So I don’t perceive any risk. If game pass yanks the game and I want to play it later I’ll buy it. If nuclear war mucks up all the servers and I no longer have access…

I do Ultimate since I do game on both my PC and Xbox and there’s juuuuuuust enough games that are PC only (Crusader Kings 3 for example) or console only to justify the price for me.

For all the great first party Sony content on PS5, Gamepass is really the thing pushing me towards upgrading to a Series X before I get a PS5(That may wait until Spider-man 2 or the Wolverine game). It really is a game changer in terms of how we get games. I buy physical and digital copies of games I want to retain…

you do not own anything on Game Pass

I’m close to finishing a plagues tale, it's been really good so far with the only real issues being a few buggy bits in combat and the light mechanics being inconsistent in some spots (more than once I slinged a rock at an enemy right as they got into attack range and rather than have the rock hit instead it just…

I did the free trial and was able to play The Outer Worlds.  I’m thinking I should sign up again though not for the $15 one.  I really don’t have any reason to play PC games on my phone and having access to both Xbox and EA games (though I have plenty of those already) is a big plus.

Gamepass has made itself worth the money for me since go. just this past couple months I have played: Doom 2016, Wolfenstein 2 the new colossus, Doom Eternal, ManEater, Donut County, Psychonauts 2, A plagues Tale Innocence, and Hades. that’s a hell of a lot of good games to play in just a couple months. Also don’t…

Dying Light 2 now lands smack in the middle of a stacked field that includes Sifu, Elden Ring, Horizon Forbidden West, Rainbow Six Extraction, Pokémon Legends Arceus, and the next major expansion for Destiny 2.
