Considering Arrowhead is designing a cloak to commemorate the review bomb and resurrection, I am so down for this. #Helldivers2

I’m watching an essay breaking down #Helldivers2 from a live service and monetization standpoint and starting to wonder how long its currently formula will work.

#ArrowheadStudios has said they’re shooting for around one warbond per month. That’s 12 new sets of weapons, armor, and cosmetics. Is that a realistic pace? Will these weapons just start feeling same-y (some argue they already are)? Yeah you can earn currency in-game, but at face value that’s ~ $120/year game.

A fun little promo for #AnimalWell, the first game from Dunkey’s new publishing company, and some interview bits with its solo developer, Billy Basso.

It’s basically a cute puzzle platformer metroidvania with no combat. Or as Dunkey calls it: the first ever animal-vania and Well Type Game. 😆

I like ALH and Onslaught but seriously #Destiny2

If you have #Destiny2 friends who’ve been out for a bit, this is a nice vid. It covers a lot of the great changes #Bungie has made recently, including Onslaught, making three big expansions free, and QoL improvements like raising the power floor of everyone and everything once TFS drops.

“Game Pass has justified its slow degrading of the value of games by promising that it makes room for little guys to survive. We all know now, finally, that this was a lie. Is it a great value for consumers still? Probably. Has Phil Spencer’s multi-billion dollar project destroyed the gaming industry? I am comfortable calling it a contributing factor to its slow decay.”

#Helldivers2 “A smart player relies on calling down air strikes and support weapons with a neat little dial-a-warcrime system.” 😆

Note that Yahtzee isn’t keen on multiplayer games in general, not even PvE games, so of course he isn’t that keen on HD2. But that line was too good not to share.

#Helldivers2 Has anyone found a non-Twitter social bot, subreddit, whatever that posts the daily Super Store offerings? I'm tired of booting the game just to check

#Destiny2 trailer dropped. Shadowkeep, Beyond Light, and Witch Queen are now FTP for everyone, all platforms until TFS. https://youtu.be/yb80CvCeBjE?si=7Lx5scvFOPTg9IKN

Huh. #Destiny2 is # 9 in Steam's Top Sellers list, just above Fallout 4. Something going on?

#Destiny2 Pantheon anecdote: We mostly got it done in ~ 2:15 hours, but that was with a team of 6 who knew the encounters fairly well, and ~ 4 people who had already gotten it done this week.

There aren't many big changes. No new mechanics. Just a couple enemies added, a Tormentor in... two? encountters. If you want platinum for the seal, there's a timer for each encounter that basically just means to optimize your damage - surges, coordinate, etc.

Plus, guaranteed raid exotics at the end!

#Destiny2 Watching Pantheon guides for my first run this morning, I realize Destiny raiding is mostly an exercise of friends counting down at each other

#Helldivers2 Re: The 'new' requirement for PC players to link to a PSN account.

In my professional opinion (communications, PR, community management), they could have handled this much better. Yes, it was listed as a requirement in Steam since day 1, but they should have communicated the situation - It was disabled due to explosive popularity, but was going to be enforced sooner or later.

Probably should've been in social announcements and patch notes.

#Helldivers2 Finally had one of my own 'shortest missions ever.'

Joined a group at random (I like helping out when I can). Picked my strategems and gear, dropped in. Emerge from hellpod on the evac pad, "This is pelican 1 beginning countdown." 😄

Literally ran from hellpod to Pelican and evac'd.

Multiple #Destiny2 Onslaught runs where no one but me has anti-Champion weapons set up.

Y'all.

You. all

Please take just a second to work at least 1-2 champion mods/weapons into your loadouts! We won't get far without them.

Check the artifact. Check the three champion icons next to your weapons in your inventory. Check any weapons you have with intrinsic anti-Champion abilities. This shit matters in everything above the most basic PvE content in the game.

Ok, I just discovered The Case of the Missing Archie (my wording) and I love this game even more. #Destiny2

The next #Remnant2 DLC is out - The Forgotten Kingdom

18GB download on my PC! 😮

Side note: Why is every kingdom 'forgotten' or king 'lost to time' or whatever. For once I'd just like to see "The Kingdom We Never Forgot About It Just Got Boring"

#helldivers2 Arrowhead should purchase this fan made trailer. This is a work of art. https://youtu.be/z85bWJIjfXc?si=Ac-1vvXO9MlN2rr7

I'm growing to dislike wearing a typical large #GAMER headset. I think what I want is gaming-centric, wireless in-ear monitors, with no mic. Do those exist?

Started putting together a dedicated mic + earbud set.

Got a #Razer Seiren V3 Chroma, because RGB, with an Elgato low-profile mic arm, and Razer's Hammerhead Pro earbuds.

I feel less restricted, but the earbuds of course have shorter battery life and the mic is still active, hurting battery.

Anyone seen IEMs like this?
