Yeah it's quiet here for sure! But I'll give my take.

  • Campaign was good. Loved the story. Lodi is my fish out of water and the conclusion was satisfying and intriguing.
  • The new mechanics on the planet were somewhat jarring and platformy, I suppose. But hey, this is bungie experimenting and frankly something a little new, even if it didn't exactly hit, I applaud.
  • New loadouts and the grind to grind system: juries out. Tier 5 seems like rare as unicorns!
  • Portal: Yeah OK. This simplifies the play to get what I want. I know this looks life some mobile game shit, but I engage more with this tbh. It tells me how long it's going to be too play and I get to the action. World map still present.

7/10.

I've not paid for the star wars thingy. There's star wars games out there if I wanted that.

Real question: Ikora with or without Afro?

Everything I saw of this before release turned me off. Especially another soft reset of our gear. I spent the last 2-3 years build crafting and finding the stuff I like to use. Soon it’ll be obsolete. Again.

To quote Datto: “Innovation in Destiny cannot be ‘more Destiny’ “ and boy did everything I saw look like “more Destiny” except you can turn into a ball when we tell you to.

EDIT: You know what else was a turn off? All those employees getting laid off after TFS was a “massive success” while Pete Parsons is still in charge. Hard to justify giving Bungie more money.

You're not wrong. Gimme another live fps service with dungeons, raids and pvp. And I bet a vital organ, Datto keeps playing the game.

Yeah that’s the shame of it. No one else has done what Destiny does. Hell Destiny doesn’t do what it does best sometimes.
