Space Jesus.

No telling if this will get seen, but I read this comment elsewhere on the blogosphere and it makes the (empty) story of this first entry make more sense. Take what you will from it:

Maybe I'm confusing the wording of the original post then. They don't have EXTRA shields, they have the same amount of shield everyone else has. But I agree, on small teams you can definitely take out the whole team, if they're all in proximity. I've even done it before. But you can also do that with the other supers,…

I said the same thing when I played in the beta, but really it's all about knowing your class and how/when to use your supers. Everyone else has supers too, so I don't think it's a matter of balance. It's mostly strategy with the supers and skill with the weapons. And going in the Crucible early on, not knowing what…

...they don't have shields. Everyone has two bars (white is shield, red is health) and that's it, even when using your super.

Stick with it! You just gotta work on how you use it. My cousin's got the warlock class and he's a beast with it.

I don't think Bladedancer is OP, it's just really lethal in close range. So if you're playing against it it'll rip through your team — granted they're bunched up.

You don't have shields in Bladedancer, it just looks like it. It's mostly intimidation, to be honest, with the Hunter glowing and everything. They're not any faster at a distance, but kinda difficult at close range. I've killed plenty in Bladedancer.

And here come the "gloom and doom" remarks...

Gamers are a whiny and fickle bunch.

$500 million in development costs over 10 years.

Destiny is, in theory, a cross between a first-person shooter and a large-scale MMORPG.

I think it's too soon to call the demise of Minecraft on other platforms, especially with the way "One Microsoft" is going.

Okay, so here's a few points:

Uh, that was awesome.

Tomorrow is catfish lunch day at work and I. Can't. Wait.

Being as much in-the-know about tech gadgets as I am this was hilarious to read.

I didn't even know Evolve was delayed. Damn it.
