    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I think they tweaked a setting. I saw three public events this AM in about an hour. Of course people have played without them up till now so everyone else around just ignored them. Serious failure of game design to have them nonexistent for the launch. How they handled subclass pisses me off.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Its just part of the random matchmaking. Had it happen to us once when we queued up and ended up popping in at the last boss.

    Doomed as a nation

    While assembling supplies for home improvement last month I noticed that the sign at Home Depot actually read 2" x 4" and commented as such to my buddy. A better solution would be for Americans to stop measuring things by the furlong per fortnight and actually employ real units of measurement.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Playing with real life friends and tackling all the content on Hard makes the game quite challenging and super fun. The boss at the end of the Moon Strike was tough until we figured out the strategy and then farmed him several times to get full suits of blue.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    In anyone else cares Crispin Freeman is the name of the Male Awoken voice actor. He also did Roy Harper / Red Arrow / Arsenal on Young Justice. It was driving me crazy because I recognized the voice, just not from where.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I'm not quite sure what Bungie has in mind for solidifying the social network necessary for Heroic Strikes and such. Trying to communicate "hey, would you like to go do a really hard dungeon" with a combination of point dance and sit is pretty challenging. I suppose that is why they have...

    Scottish Independence

    The only Scots I know personally are very much pro independence and have been talking about it for the last year fairly steadily. I too wondered why this hadn't gotten a lot more press as it seemed like a pretty damn significant thing. Not the least of which due to our close governmental ties...

    The Legend of Korra

    Sadly this is probably very much the case. Granted this is because both Book 3 and 4 are part of "season" 2 for the purposes of standard contracts and the pick-up order that was issued following Book 2 (which was itself technically picking up the back half of the first season). That having...

    Well they did say the work was mostly done... Guess they werent kidding.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Yeah I noticed at Target instead of the usual locked up vidjamagames or maybe an endcap near the checkout register with some copies of Madden they had 3-4 cardboard towers full of Destiny sitting at different locations within the store.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I have to hope that they have a pretty epic storyline mapped out. I mean you seen evidence of it here and there in a "nothing is quite as it seems" sort of way, especially with how you interact with some of the NPC factions. Then again maybe the Darkness really is just Ming the Merciless and...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    So this AM I was screwing around in the Cosmodrome Patrol and found yet another area I had no idea that existed full of ?? Hive. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I really enjoy finding secret hideyholes like that.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I dunno. I look at No Mans Sky and see Spore the Next Generation. Lots of conceptual promise that I fear will turn into lackluster gameplay

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    So my roommate tried the game after having avoided the alpha and beta (and after seeing comments today dissing on the game) and promptly managed to disenchant his first weapon upgrade rather than equip it.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I have no idea what is causing people to go so negative on the game. It's the same game I enjoyed in Alpha and Beta and I'm still enjoying it, playing with friends and taking on the hard versions of story missions with crap gear and laughing our asses off when we fail.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I noticed already they had a bit more variety in the Patrol missions. Also I thought from alpha and beta I knew the Cosmodrome like the back of my hand yet I had patrols that sent me to well hidden places I had walked right past before. Wish they would add a numeric representation of weapon...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I feel confident our characters will persist through the Destiny releases and either carry over (since its all server side) from title to title or they will just continually update Destiny with annual major updates and then periodic content packs ala WoW, but with DLC costs replacing monthly fee.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Ghost 360 is currently available at Amazon. With the free upgrade to Xbone offer you can get your Ghost on and still play on Xbone.

    Destiny - Gamertags

    Due to overwhelming peer pressure I'm now getting the PS4 version as well (or again since that was my original order). The worst part of the console wars is having people on either side who you don't want to disappoint. Anywho on PSN I'm "Qhue".

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I kinda wonder if they will have the Ghost available for sale on the Bungie store sometime after the release. I really do want one of those little dudes.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Im kind of surprised that Activision hasn't put a Warlords of Draenor pre-order bonus doo-dad onto Destiny, or thrown in the Ghost or one of the Guardians into Heroes of the Storm. I suppose they really are trying to keep the Blizzard brand distinct from the Activision brand in case they ever...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I went to Target with a buddy to do the trade-in promotion thing listed above and there was significant confusion on their part. Despite the game being one of the one's listed as a guaranteed $20 value it came up as $10.93 and there was no indication at all of the Destiny promotion. I showed...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    What is it with the greater rifts that are one single long hallway? Did one at max level that I am capable of and when I died on the rift guardian it took over 7 minutes of walking to get back.

    Doctor Who

    Dalek history is a complete mess... as is fitting for a race that did go to war with the Time Lords over mastery of time and space. There are so many factions, alternative timelines etc that it is impossible to reconcile all of them or even a good portion. Most of it is almost certainly the...

    Arrow

    Apparently she had a conflict with filming something else that already had her locked in. This is probably a good sign that Katana is a significant part of the season.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Actor Kristian Nairn reveals the other side of Hodor on Game of Thrones-themed DJ tour - Yahoo!7 If true then I guess they have decided to just skip any Bran related updates for the next season since they already caught up to the novels in season 4? Not quite sure how they manage that...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    You can download it on the 5th (Xbox you can download it right now) but it won't be usable until the magic hour. Thus people who go to brick-and-mortar stores at midnight in NY will be able to start playing prior to any of the digital downloaders.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Bungie's servers will be ready to go as soon as it is Sept 9th anywhere in the world. Meanwhile Xbox and PSN decide to do the digital release at midnight PST... why not midnight EST? *sigh*

    Diablo III - Ultimate Evil Edition

    Soooo I did not realize that the console version destroyed socketed gems when you salvage items... Seems odd not to have this be the same on the console as it is on the PC.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    The Destiny planetview is pretty darn cool. Also more great marketing by Bungie and Sony since there are exclusive PS4 things that show up in the view

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    What I do enjoy about the game is the way in which drops lead you to explore different specs. I got some nice fire gear on Mt crusader and thus went for a fire based build and now with 2.1 I've gotten some Akkans and a nice roll on the phallanx flail so I'm working on completing the necessary...

    The Legend of Korra

    I know that Korra ends with Book 4 and there are currently no plans to work on anything past that... But part of me really hopes that a couple years down the road they do a 3rd series that progresses the cycle one more step and farther in time. Given that Avatars usually live quite long...

    Doctor Who

    One thing I have noticed from these first two episodes is that, unlike Tennant or Smith, the delivery of the lines is very understated yet rapid fire. This plus the scottish accent is clearly losing some American audience members. I've picked up on funny bits on the second viewing that I...

    Defiance Season 2

    Yeah the arks took ~ 5000 years to get to earth and they were expecting an uninhabited very nice colony world waiting for them. The Kaziiri apparently was their most advanced ship when they left and had a much better drive system so made the trip in only 2000 years. When they arrived they...

    Defiance Season 2

    NYC looked very nice and gave the impression of being the one place on the planet where society and architecture and such still existed. With the eRep and Votanis Collective blown to hell it will be interesting to see what happens to the rest of the world, especially now that a good chunk of...

    Destiny - Gamertags

    I still wonder if they don't fully intend to have cross play in the future given that the characters are shared across the generational platforms.

    Defiance Season 2

    Still watching the finale, but just had to stop in to comment that Doc Ywll and her hallucination girlfriend are amazing.
