Eivion Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Thought this was an interesting and good take on the current situation with the angry community and streamers who can't leave this stuff behind. In all the years here when people were hate watching WWE its weird that I only now finally have a good answer as to why since Myelin was on point about hard to let go time investment being made with fandoms and whatnot.

RIPPA Posted July 14, 2023 Author Share Posted July 14, 2023 It has been interesting seeing the content creator perspective on what to do (especially for those who are heavy PvP) since switching games can completely torch ones living Gernader Jake quit streaming D2 because of his anger over Trials Gladd switched to Diablo IV (and played so much he actually made the Top 50 Twitch streamers recently) Fallout was really struggling because every time he does non-Destiny videos - they tank. Example Cross I don't really count because he is an admitted troll so he will always be able to feed off people's anger in one way or another (plus he has started doing more reaction videos to other people's PVP rants - see his response to Gladd) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted July 14, 2023 Author Share Posted July 14, 2023 OH! Saying all those names reminded me So they put out the schedule for Meet & Greets for GSX and Datto is the only person doing solo 8 hour Meet & Greets both days So lots of teasing to Datto that they are not letting him leave and he has to sleep at the table. Gladd is doing one 8 hour solo. Everyone else is paired with someone and for half the time (Some of the pairings are Fallout and Cross, Byf and Leopard and Mr Fruit and Rhabby) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDlUqHBtySs&pp=ygUJYXp0ZWNyb3Nz Pretty much confirms why we lose one Destiny's best community managers. I am curious how long until other companies start doing what Bungie has in terms of lawsuits against cheat developers and dangerously toxic community members.

RIPPA Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 I don't know how I feel about Cross taking one simple tweet as confirmation so he can name names I mean most folks could put two and two together but that is a big fucking leap - especially when Bungie was going out of their way to maintain confidentiality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) I thought it was more than just the tweet and more past comments from dmg alongside the timeline of events. Edited July 15, 2023 by Eivion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eivion Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqyrrZbanMc&pp=ygUFZGF0dG8%3D Nice to see Datto address burnout. I think as many problems as D2 has its more or less been the same amount that we usually see. I really do think a lot of the current community anger is tied to burnout.

RIPPA Posted July 27, 2023 Author Share Posted July 27, 2023 The economic changes are basically they are increasing the cap on Ascendant Shards, Ascendant Alloys and Enhancement Prism The catch is they will no longer go to your postmaster if your inventory is at max (it will act like Glimmer does and just vanish into the Ether) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted July 27, 2023 Author Share Posted July 27, 2023 Other random things of note Veil Containment stuff will continue for the remaining weeks of this season and apparently will have some unlocks in the next two seasons too They will allow you to use your sparrow in Bonfire Bash next week With Presage becoming part of the Exotic Mission Rotator - Dead Man's Tale will become craftable and will be removed from Xur's inventory (since it will be a drop the week Presage is active) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) I'm good with the changes for Shards, Alloy, and Prisms. I was getting too damn many and basically forced myself to use them up to make room. Hardcores and those looking to bitch are the only ones annoyed by it. DMT becoming craftable next season was expected. They admitted it and Hawkmoon would be be eventually. Figured it would happen when they added a rotator for exotic missions. Curious how many other end up in similar positions. Glad BB will add sparrows. Curious just how big Veil Containment is. Figured it would just be a season thing.

Eivion Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_8HX1hXzwA&pp=ygUJYXp0ZWNyb3Nz Only about 2/3 through, but its interesting hearing about how the PvE and PvP sandboxes work for weapons. Apparently a good deal of oppressive weapons in PvP only feel that way due to usage opposed to how good they actually are. Immortal is outside of top 5 in reality. HCs haven't really been dethroned in the PvP meta despite the nerfs and usage of other weapons going up. The stuff that has been nerfed heavily are the ones that did surpass it for a while like Graviton Lance recently and DMT. I just wish DMT would get a PvE buff. I really enjoyed using it there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 What activities on Neptune is there to do if you don’t have Lightfall (or any expansion)? None, right? I didn’t even see any public events listed when I checked last night. Guess I gotta do Vanguard Ops and Gambit matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost Patrols do larger percentages, and the rare public event only does like 5% each time. I believe Terminal Overload is exclusive to Lightfall owners. I normally wouldn’t even care but I need 3 kindling and only 3 challenges left. Neptune, 10 Gambit matches, and the title progression thing or whatever. Ugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted August 3, 2023 Author Share Posted August 3, 2023 Okay - yeah - I didn't realize you meant for credit to the Solstice stuff Yeah - Terminal Overload doesn't count for it The strike counts for like 33% each time but I am assuming you can't launch that directly since you don't have Lightfall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
