woke up goddamn early, talking 330am to play new Destiny since it launched at 4 and man....

its so loving good. the new quests are great and well acted, this is how the story should have been from the start. tons of fun things to do, its a little overwhelming but that just means more content to look forward to.

one funny thing is that those red bull codes for more XP made a few of us who saved up a bunch of quests get to max level right away but im sure the leveling is pretty fast in general. its all about getting loot anyways.

and man, the new guns are loving great! sound awesome, of course they feel good too since bungie loving nails that poo poo down so good

new enemies are tough and interesting, I dread taking on the actual challenge versions since they have some hard tricks to get around (screen blindness, projectiles that can push you around and more)

if you didnt like destiny when it first came out its very, very much worth your time to see whats up. this update is AMAZING

gently caress this is so AWESOME! But alas, time for work. :3:

At 221 light and stuck with blue armor (purple DO chest tho) but all purp guns. loving Vanguard Suros!! But DO has a Omolon pulse (i think it was that, could have been scout) that ill gun for once I get the marks.

Suros AR (has a nice deep sounding fire sound)




DO Launcher, this thing is pretty goddamn huge.


Vanguard Shotgun, full auto ready to go!


Crucible Sidearm with a goddamn silencer

It's the same game presented better and streamlined. It's a new grind for gear. It's not radically different it's a little better.

I think if V was just chapter one it would be fine and people would be nowhere near as upset as they are now. The Phantom Pain(?!) of knowing they are missing out on something is riling people up. The game is fun to play with lots of badass and goofy moments so thats good enough for me.

i never looked into what was cut but the entire theme on revenge and big boss becoming a demon just kinda stop progressing and then suddenly the ending.

this requires way less time and commitment than WoW tho. you join up with some friends, blast some guys for a couple hours and youve accomplished a lot already. its fun for me and its such a well made FPS, esp. now with all the tweaks and fixes bungie have put in. their hard work shows and there is only gonna be more.

its not for everyone of course :)

Destiny's problem is dearth of content. They're doing a decent job fixing the systems but really they don't get full credit for it since its been like a year and the game cost $Texas to make but had some really bad decisions made regarding gear/grind.

As a PvE shooter with friends its as good as you can get. Movement/Controls are pretty much as good as you can possibly get on a console with a controller- when Bungie manages to get out of its own way it is a really fun game to play with other people you know.

speaking of MMOs-lite I have really been enjoying D3 lately

got a weird lightning-focused build that's super fun, and I'm at T3 without a lot of effort. I wish the seasons were longer so I could level up a few different characters. anyone got tips on witch doctor

same except demon hunter or inquisitor or whatever, face to group hold down gatling gun mode repeat nothing else kills enemies any faster and weapons are adjusting single digit points in triple digit situations


caught TGS last night, most things were expected but then GRAVITY DAZE TEAM IS WORKING ON and im fuckin hyped for gravity rush 2

also destiny is barely like an mmo, it's a really really mechanically great shootmans with occasional multiplayer and is great to just pick up now and then. and now it has a decent amount of content and probably justifies the $60 price tag

demon hunter was a pain to play into deep torment levels cause of no survivability. like I want to shoot poo poo, not constantly dodge everything.

they've helped this by upping the blood shard limit (so more chances to gamble) and the set item conversion option. if you're regularly running t4 or t5 it shouldn't be that difficult

my wizard has a source that makes electricity jump between enemies even if they've already been hit, i have a gem that increases the damage for electricity by 25 per cent or more, and the weapon slot for my legendary skills means I do 815 per cent weapon damage to surrounding enemies whenever I cast a lightning spell

I haven't played in a while but I played a wizard that used electrocute+frozen orb with every other skill being stuff meant to boost damage

I got that same item that makes electrocute jump to extra targets and targets it has already hit.

Basically orb to slow everything, electrocute to full mana, spam orb, repeat

it used to be really broken but they nerfed most of the stuff involved so its kinda eh now but it works and i like it

got a shitload of stuff boosting lightning and ice damage that rolled up well so I'm sticking with it
