@massivelyop It’s not really that big of a deal but I feel sorry for them. The amount of work it takes to manage content on a live service game is astronomical (let alone cross platform).

(rant) It’s unbelievable that live service has become the primary games business model. It’s hilariously unsustainable. Don’t tell anyone but they’re all out there held together with glue and rubber bands and running on fumes and a prayer 🫣 especially the big ones.

@InfiniteHench I'm going in relatively cold when I get back from holiday on the 10th..!

@InfiniteHench I played with The Enigma a bunch when WQ released, but haven’t messed with them since. You have a build you like?

@swburk Vexcalibur is fantastic, tons of void synergy and a free overshield for you and allies.

Anyone have opinions on a simple iPad + iPhone task app that:

  • syncs via iCloud? That is a must
  • Is neither Things 3 nor Reminders (I already use them)

Doesn't need to be super feature rich. It's just a place to store video game stuff I want to do (like weapon rolls to chase in )

@chartier the new clear app?

Re : It has a thing for heaping systems upon systems upon systems, eh? Also, 1000 different "currencies”, this is getting out of hand

@czottmann Almost 7 years of live service surely added up some clutter. They are trying to reduce the amount of currencies with the upcoming expansion.

@CrowleyAJ I should probably masterwork all my shit before they … ah, why bother ;)

Kurcze, zagrałem ostatnio po długiej przerwie w Destiny 2. Tęskniłem za tym światem, tym klimatem i przede wszystkim za grą z ziomeczkami. Szkoda patrzeć, co się z tym dzieje, ale i tak gra się cudownie!

folks, the new Skimmer is awesome. Lotta fun. How to get it:

  • Get event card and class item from Eva
  • Put on class item
  • Finish one of any of the GG activities at the top of the Tower node (I did a strike)
  • Talk to Eva, check her second page you might be able to acquire it. If not:
  • Talk to Vuvuzela
  • Talk to Shaxx
  • Check again, should be there
  • You also should have a new quest called Drop In, that lets you keep it. Not tied to event quest, but you do need to do medal stuff

Skimmer tip: Do a sparrow dodge to perform the sweeping motion this player does at the end of the video to yeet a Dreg off the cliff.

On controller I think it's press in the left/right sticks. On PC double tap A or D.

Little Tips: Synthweave (for transmog) caps out at 15 per guardian.

The game does tell you this if you hover over their icons in the appearance customization screen, but it's kinda of hidden.

If you're spending this downtime to score some fashion, make sure you actually unlock some ornaments before reaching that cap. I'm pretty sure they don't stack anywhere else, they just get burned. Like I'm pretty sure I did a while ago.

@InfiniteHench it just doesn’t let you use the machine if you already have 15 synthweave. I’ve made that mistake a couple times.

ayeayerobot,

Planning to switch to Linux as my daily driver now that gaming is in a better place. still has no official support, though, and probably never will. Time to move on? Other ideas?

ayeayerobot,

@thelinuxcast I've thought about that. Just like the old days! More trouble than it's worth, maybe.

thelinuxcast,
@thelinuxcast@fosstodon.org avatar

@ayeayerobot That's what a lot of people decide and just go one way or the other. If GPU pass through was easier, I'd suggest Virtual Machines, but that is a sinkhole of time that most people don't want to get into.

@thegamerstavern@mstdn.games avatar

I double blame @rosareven and @harrybo93 for getting me back on Destiny 2, and sadly having to leave the game behind moving to Linux.

@EighthLayer@mstdn.games avatar

@thegamerstavern @rosareven @harrybo93 Why force Linux upon yourself then? 😂

Watching stream . Maybe it's the live service lovin’ player in me, but this looks fun.

It's early yet, I haven't seen the loot system yet. I'm also not deeply steeped in DC or comics lore in general. Some people in the stream are snarking like “you know what suicide squad needed? Grapple hooks and jet packs.”

But isn't that what many characters use? Like a lot of their heroes are regular folks with gadgets, suits, and skills. 🤷🏻‍♂️

InfiniteHench,
@InfiniteHench@mstdn.games avatar

Their steam is done, and they had just gotten into the loot system. Actually praised how guns feel good and unique.

I actually wasn't planning on picking this up, but now i might. This game looks fun!

TIL two opposing sword users can parry each other. 🤯 https://www.reddit.com/r/destiny2/s/0cSOMKhA1k

swburk,
@swburk@mastodon.social avatar

@InfiniteHench That is fascinating. We were recently attempting to see what would happen when two well-skating warlocks collided, but we weren’t able to get lined up right. I think this answers our question.

InfiniteHench,
@InfiniteHench@mstdn.games avatar

@swburk Ah, yeah not sure what's supposed to happen there. This case, of course, was a PvP setting in a Gambit match. I am quite impressed they built in-game mechanics for such an incredibly rare interaction. Claaassic .

@thegamerstavern I'm trying to keep it away from me. I used to spend a lot of hours blasting in that game. One of my favourites of all time. Maybe is time to return? 😆... Bye social life!

thegamerstavern,
@thegamerstavern@mstdn.games avatar

@greenvahn I blame @harrybo93 and @rosareven for chatting in TGT's Discord server about Destiny 2 and about oh-so how good this game is.

Double blame them.

trying competitive for the first time ever because a friend needs partners in crime and I like playing with them.

1 of 7 placement matches done. My Competitive Rank is UNTESTED

That means I haven't met a worthy opponent yet, right? 😆

fnxweb,
@fnxweb@mastodon.social avatar

@InfiniteHench Did you mean one of seven? You need to complete a full 7 matches to get an initial tank (and repeat the process each season). You should at that point get given a rank. But I only ever do comp now for the seasonal challenge, and didn't even bother with that last season.

InfiniteHench,
@InfiniteHench@mstdn.games avatar

@fnxweb Yeah, thanks for the catch. And I’m just making a dumb joke about being too good at comp, which I absolutely am not (have never done comp before and my KD is barely above 1.0)
