Destiny 2

So, it's a thing, all official and stuff.

I can't link twitter at work, so here's a bungie forums post about it.

Based on the leaked images, I'm just so excited!  As some forum folks there already posted, the bottom of the Traveler is healed and the city is smoking at night.  Hrm...

Could be that the Traveler has woken up, is pissed and wants revenge!  Or it's been hijacked by the darkness and is attacking.  Or the Cabal have managed to penetrate the Traveler's defenses, attacked it, and this is a shot of the Traveler falling on the city...

Fun conspiracy theories?  Go!

I hope it doesn't want to harm us naturally because it's o our side. I hope it gets hacked or something like that. All in all I'm excited for this.

There was an art snafu where the artist left a second Traveler image in the background which sent the Destiny-verse into a complete frothing mess.  Was pretty funny on twitter =)

So after a night of reflection:  I think the Cabal have attacked.  Since they aren't part of the Darkness, they are simply a military force, which has had it's leadership in the Solar System destroyed.  They may be able to bypass the Traveler's "defenses" because they aren't tainted by the Darkness the way the Fallen, Hive and Vex are.  In TTK, the message was sent, and now the Cabal are investigating why their armies are being constantly kicked in the teeth.  I read (just now, checking on the Cabal and Darkness relationship), that they are studying our self-resurrection abilities before they commit to full and total war with us.  Fun times.

I guess they could be here and ready to fight us.  Maybe they have a way to block our light, or at least weaken it to the point where we aren't as powerful.  Then Destiny 2 is about us finding our powers again and reclaiming the City and protecting what's left of Humanity.

That would be a powerful narrative.  I just hope Shaxx is still there.  He and Cayde.  Love those two guys!

Very nice! We never got a cabal raid did we? I always like fighting them and the vex the most.

Well, this is a thing...

Holy poo on a stick!  Color excited!  I can't wait to see the full trailer Thursday.  I'm just going to watch this on loop for several hours.

So the Canal are attacking the city, The Vanguard are kicking ass, and Cayde-6 is in rare form!

Man, I wish I could have made it to a GameStop this week to preorder for my Cayde-6 bobble dead.../weep...

Did you play any original Destiny?  I feel like I have to bring this up, just in case!

Destiny was the only game I played for most of 2016. When I solo'd the Crota raid, it sealed it as my favorite game ever.

E3 will be awesome this year just for this game. What are your guys' gamer tags on X1 if you have it?

I'm Dionysusfiend, but I'm in show week.  Saturday night I'll be on, try to raid or nightfall.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
