    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    You really don't have anything meaningful to do. Public events on Earth or wherever to get 100 Vanguard Marks a week and misc stuff for faction in order to spend them is about the only mechanism left available to you. Strikes are 100% pointless since they give you nothing and you will be hard...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    The sad part is that the actual gameplay (the running around and shooting things part) is good. But there was clearly not more than three one-hour meetings devoted to how to handle progression once the Story was finished and now the game is effectively done. People were in the "Im playing but...

    Big Hero 6 (Marvel/Disney)

    Big Hero 6 was very much a Japanese hero team in the traditional Marvel universe. This is very much NOT the traditional Marvel universe given the setting has been changed to an amalgam of Tokyo and San Francisco. If this works I suspect we will see more Marvel properties with potential...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    So they nerfed all the outdoor spawns while also eliminating the reward for doing the current world event and while admitting that their reward system is bad only say that things will change "Soon"? Really not a smart move. I predict a large number of people will simply dump the game now...

    Defiance Season 2

    SyFy did indeed renew Defiance for another 13 episodes, along with Dominion.

    Titan has been cancelled.

    Probably that they wanted to make more money. It has to rub ActiBlizz wrong that the whole LoL / DOTA business grew out of a open source mod to their game and there are only soft-money revenue streams for Diablo and Starcraft.

    The Ask Kuriin, A Gay Man, Anything Thread

    I've encountered several flaaaaaming gay guys whose high pitched lisps and other affectations completely vanish when they get trashed. So while it is a natural speech differentiation it is also an intentionally acquired mannerism.

    Titan has been cancelled.

    When playing Destiny yesterday my buddy said "I don't follow this story at all, I don't even know why I'm killing this Phogoth thing" I replied "He's a space dragon" His reply? "Well okay then! That's enough for me" I then went on to comment he was really more of a giant ogre, but the...

    I got a shader at Cryptarch 10... It's fun to watch someone try Phogoth for the first time.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I played my Monk as a Mistweaver and while mana was something of an issue early on in levelling it quickly stopped being so in heroic+ gear. Whenever I feel like I'm running low on mana I have Manatea I can chug and that gets me right back in the thick of things. It may have helped, also, that...

    I actually was thinking that Simmons was in-head given the way she was acting around Fitz the whole episode. Then I decided "nah they aren't doing that" only to be rewarded at the end. All round the show was much sharper with this opening, I think because with Hydra and having to be...

    I know a lot of flame gets passed around about QA in gaming (trenchescomic.com) but good gravy either they didn't do a solid QA pass on this post-release content or they did and everyone was too wiped post-launch to do anything about it.

    Titan has been cancelled.

    Of course this story is third hand at best, but that does indeed sound terrible. While I bet there are some people who want to RP it up as Dex from Star Wars episode II in all the epic Cooking Mama gameplay I can't imagine it pairing well with anything that would get a large population excited.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Three kill shots for the Fallen Walker has to be a mistake since the Walkers are only found in public quest areas and Strikes. Hopefully they hotfix that promptly

    Titan has been cancelled.

    Patch 5.4 of WoW was over a year ago. For a product that commands a monthly fee that is just plain ballsy.

    Mission Modifier - Destinypedia, the Destiny Wiki - Destiny, Bungie, Activision, Fallen, Cabal, Hive, and more! I keep that open so I can refer to it quickly using the in-game symbols. Funny how one of the daily bounties today for the Queen is impossible given that it requires you to use...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Well we ran the Queens epic missions with a house rule that we wouldn't re-roll the mission and just charge through. Made for a very entertaining evening and got things like legendary hats which had otherwise eluded us. Much better to get legendary loot from doing hard things than doing the...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Some of the ex Bungie guys who worked on Shadowrun for the 360 must have gone back to Bungie for Destiny. The animation for the Voidwalker Teleport (arm reached forward, makes a fist and pulls back) is exactly the same as the teleport in Shadowrun.

    Voice chat for Xboners is different. Xbox has separate Party invites for chat and Fireteam invites for in-game grouping. You can be in a Party with your buddy and talk only to each other while grouped with some PUG. Conversely you will never speak to random people unless you take the time to...

    Gotham

    Every episode will apparently have a "Joker" in it for the first season showing off many possible origins/elements for the character. Also if they find an actor they particularly like for one of those bits then they could run with that one.

    Gotham

    The guy that plays the Penguin genuinely looks the part and can pull off creepy very well. The whole thing has a Dick Tracy meets Blade Runner kind of vibe to it. It's kind of cool that the mob boss is looking for stability as that directly impacts his bottom line.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I turned in two Queen bounties and got two "Queen's Wrath" mission tokens in my inventory. Perhaps you need to have one of these to take the mission (and it gets used up in the process?)

    It does indeed seem to be just bounties and meh rewards... where are the "unique legendary gear" and "challenging mission modes?" edit: There is "the queens wrath" level 24 story challenge that showed up on the side of the screen

    Well that was pretty darn good. Like that they filled the show with a ton of traditional Gotham City elements. Lots of major villains appear plus even people like Montoya and Crispin Allen

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Why the fuck did Bungie not just adopt a loot table for each of the Strikes? Have the end result of the Strike result in 1 item from a loot table of 5-6 items that scale as a function of the level the Strike is done at plus a chance at a second item from a table that includes Strange Coins and...

    Well the Queens Bounty thing begins tomorrow and will, hopefully, flesh out a bit of the story and/or add in new Strike modes and loot. It's gonna be a long time until December if they have not much for people to do once they finish with Cave of Wonders. Then again I will be shocked if CoW...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    There's a ~5% chance to get a purple from a blue and a ~35% chance to get a purple from a purple. Given that one seems to find at least 10x more blue engrams than purple you really are more likely to get a purple item from a blue enfram than you are from a purple one.

    Is there any significance to the class items that the Speaker sells for Motes of Light? Thinking along the lines of the faction class items that the PVP faction types sell that grants access to raise that faction.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    The game has a problem given that doing strikes is simply not worth it if you are trying to upgrade anything. If you aren't off chasing engrams at one of the established farm spots and doing trivial public events for marks then you are simply failing at the game. I'd rather do the strikes...
