Luke Smith: Ok.

Luke Smith: Fair enough. Fair enough. That is a valid position to hold but my colleagues do not agree with buffing every single weapon.

Because everyone assumed with the way Bungie was pitching it that it'd be used for some kind of procedurally generated Prison of Elders or something and instead it turned out to be a slightly randomized, glorified loading screen.

Yeah, that's what he's saying. That the pitch was glorified lore for something that didn't matter or really add anything. It also doesn't help that the pitch feeds directly into the assumption they'd added something the players had been clamouring for.
It'll be like if all this talk of expansion 2/s3 coming with weapon balance is because there's a story mission where you add a bunch of counterweights to guns and now in the lore most exotics feel better to hold.
It was an amatuerish mistake, and could've been avoided by breaking down lore and mechanic selling points, and when fans started saying 'that sounds like procedural content generation, finally an endgame!' Bungie should've stepped in and said 'This expansion adds x hours of story mission to clarify, you've all mixed up the story with the mechanics.'

I think you could make OHKO stickies work but they would need to have tracking or whatever toned waaaaay down and some other nerfs


So why bother just do something else.

Haven't tried it yet but plan to. Forward Path iirc beats it with range and stability. Interesting perks tho, it may compete with it.

the stability is kind of rear end at 42, but a double kinetic stability hunter set-up might turn it into something.

Logged in for the Faction rally and I guess the faction emblems are bugged? Pledged to FWC and it's only showing that I've pledged three times instead of four. Now I'm gonna look like a fuckin scrub when Year 3 rolls around and I don't have a perfect FWC pledge record. So pissed right now.

Did you equip it? I found that mine, right after I got it, was showing a wrong number until I equipped it forcing a refresh, or whatever. Other than that, Idk. Stupid that even had to happen.

Its the opposite. The game shits loot on you.

Its just that all the loot is samey and bad.

D1 Vanilla was tight as gently caress with its loot. But the loot was cool and good.

I really loved how he pulled power ammo in the second round when it was 2v1 and still wound up losing because his dumb rear end brought a sniper into trials. Also, he can't hit his Better Devils shots to save his life. But it's his buddy's fault for peeking middle for two seconds. :v: I kept watching past the end of the game when Blindsite showed up in his chat, but closed it when he didn't get that he had just played against him. Does he ever actually realize Blindsite was in the game, or does he remain oblivious?

In a way, he's right. The game shits loot on you constantly and doesn't make you do anything difficult to get it, so the loot has no value, thus, it might as well not exist. Remember the Incredibles? "When everything is loot, nothing is." :v:
