i powder a
granite monument
in a soundless flash

showering the grass
with molten drops of
its gold inlay

sending smoking
chips of stone
skipping into the fog
Rest in Peace, City of Villains

You were bad

And then you were really good

And then you were canceled

It’s still a full sequel to a game people put tons of hours into and what they delivered is mediocre as all hell. If From released a new Souls game with a few new areas but all of the same weapons, spells, enemies, and bosses they’d get absolutely reamed for it but for some reason Bungie mostly gets a pass.

To show just how lazy the content for a sequel it is: They didn't even add any new character creation options. I didn't see a single one.

Looking at the user reviews for this game, I don't think it got a pass from many other people.

Every stream I visited also featured people either being bored, or people complaining about the game.

So I hear Warframe is pretty good.

The only explanation I can think for the other Guardians not getting their Light back is that it was a one-time deal and the short cutscene or 10 seconds of dialogue it would have taken to explain this was left out cause Bungo.

when i unlocked my third subclass the ghost mentioned how maybe the shard should give some of its power to the other guardians, so there it's not a plothole if the game is meta about it!!!

I'm getting an error where there are occasionally no NPCs or enemies. Apparently it has something to do with port forwarding or something, but the fixes seem to be hit or miss at best.

This is probably the worst experience I've ever had with a AAA game, which kind of sucks because the game is fun when it's actually working.

I was running shadowplay last night and I'm not banned (yet). I turned it off though just in case.

Also question, is anyone else getting random crashes? I'm not on an AMD CPU and the game crashes every thirty minutes to an hour. It really loving sucks because I have to I keep having to restart missions and poo poo. I can't find any fixes besides running the battle.net app repair util which I've done a couple times or updating drivers which I've also already done.

I am, from time to time, the game just freezes and I have to end the process and restart it.

Baller. There’s also a HOTDOG discord in the OP. Link is still active. Really, anybody from any clan can join. We have a good time. I balance my life around about 8 discords. Really enjoy reading the 3 Density 2 discords. Lots of cool people everywhere.

I love this game.

This is good. I hope everyone who quickly dismissed the massive amount of people on the Bungie forums and Reddit complaining about being banned as being an echo chamber powered by 400 banned cheaters take back their hurtful worlds and buy you some eververse silver or whatever.

Edit: very telling that they put a number to the banned cheaters and 4 unbanned former cheaters and did NOT put a number on the recently rolled back group.

Bottom tree's rightmost talent, which lets you shoot a fuckton of bad useless quivers instead of one good one.

I actually love cataclysm. But it's....not great for pvp.

The other maybe questionable one is the one that gives your dawnblade warlock in air accuracy. I can't remember why people don't like it but I think it fucks with your jumping and guns aren't even that accurate in air anyway.

Yeah, what a poo poo show. I'm really amused they went from "4" to "a group" lmao.

The people saying "good, cya cheater" have gone quiet/deleted their posts. How very sheepish, and dumb of them to drink the Bungie kool-aid.

It makes it less that half the time, and now the shots do 1/2 the dmg.

You can try re teleporting to the same area while you're in the area. You can also do this if you finish an event very quickly and possibly snag a second one.

After the first week or so when everyone bails you'll only reliably get them on the flashpoint planet.

it's time to stop with 'Bungo', 'Bungee' and the rest of the nicknames. Seriously.
