This glitch can absolutely break the game. Orbs provide players their ultimate ability, their “Super.” Which in many cases, is an ability that could allow even the most casual of weekend warriors the ability to wipe an entire opposing fireteam. Oftentimes, silly little glitches that happen are allowed to let slide for…

With Destiny, for me, I evaluate it based on my investment, both time and money. Am I feeling like the price I’m paying to access this game is giving me a good value for the amount of time I’m playing. And I think, for that, the answer is a resounding ”yes.”

Bungie shouldn’t/doesn’t need another developer for the other game. They received $100 million in funding back in 2018 to develop Matter. I think Destiny is insanely profitable for Bungie, they’re simply kicking the tires to see how far they can go with activity monetization before there’s a breaking point. 

Rick Astley has been having a total renaissance the last year or two. The rick rolling days are kind of done, and he’s kind of become the Guy Fieri of music. This sort of villainized joke of the Internet who is turning out to be a pretty awesome guy. 

I’m totally in favor of going that direction, as they did with Destiny when ROI came out. But, as long as there are still supply shortages on next-gen consoles, this just isn’t a good move. 

The Dreaming City isn’t going away, and Last Wish and Shattered Throne are also here to stay. That’s all that really matters from that expansion. I’m ok with this change. The Tangled Shore isn’t that interesting, and is only relevant because Spider is there, but his job is being offloaded to Rahool. 

I don’t know if I’d ever, even remotely, categorize Destiny as grimdark.

This is how I’ve felt about both Division games. Absolutely loved the early game. Leveling up, the new gear, the new abilities, exploring. This was all amazing from 0-20.

I used to roll a Summoner in FFXIV. As I was getting heavily into the endgame, I’d just sit there and mindlessly hit my rotation of my abilities in boss fights. It became mind-numbingly boring. I eventually quit when I just fell asleep during a boss fight one day.

I’ve only recently gotten into the show, having watched the available 8(?) collections on Netflix with my daughter.

I love TLOU and TLOU2. But they sort of did a bad job of this in TLOU2. Ellie goes around slaughtering hundreds of people. Suddenly she kills one person who happens to be a major story character of Abby’s arc, and her reaction after the killing is just disconnected from her character. 

Red Dead Redemption did a terrible job of this. You’d sit in a cutscene with the tone and dialog of the scene going one way. Then the cutscene would end, and you’d go ride off, sometimes with one of the characters from the cutscene. But you’d have a dialog that was totally disconnected, or incongruous, from the scene…

Lawsuit leak?

I think Bungie had been that way long before with Marty, who was their in-house guy. And while we’ll never know the true story, something went south, really badly in their relationship. And Marty is clearly in the wrong here.

I think the irony of the vaulting of planets is that the game is actually in a much better place now, and is in many ways more streamlined for the current seasonal model. I agree it’s probably totally convoluted for newer players to jump into.

They have to. Although PC players account for the largest single player group, they’re still a minority compared to the consoles. And with crossplay launching, they’ve got to get a massive handle on that. 

Just a point of clarification, it’s “primary” ammo that’s becoming infinite. Kinetic refers to the weapon slot, and not necessarily the type of ammo that the weapons use in that slot (shotguns, snipers, grenade launchers being special ammo).

So the infinite ammo is ONLY for your primary weapons, basically the weakest class of weapons in the game. But “special” weapons, your good add-clearing weapons and moderate DPS weapons, still have limited ammo. And then your “heavy” weapons, the main DPS weapons, and some with add-clearing potential, have not only…

Totally depends on where their office is. Activision-Blizzard has offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York, among other places. So if you’re making $50,000 living in those cities, that’s a tough salary to live on. But I imagine the people making $50k a year aren’t in their Buffalo or Iowa City offices.

I loved Richard Grant’s version.
