[Multiplatform] Dinklageforce: Interdinklage Dinklage

Have not had a chance to get in on the beta but from what I've seen of people playing it and the reports various people have had I'm down. I know Skills has some reservations but as he said I kind of trust Bungie to deliver a solid experience. It's certainly interesting reading your take on the beta Daravon.

So yeah, I've plonked down for the PS4 version, which I think Skills is also doing. So there'll be a couple of us playing this come launch time.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah I can't say I enjoyed that PvP stuff as the Titan at all. The Hunter and Warlock powers are much better, particularly the Hunter's from how it played out. Also seemed like my guns just weren't good enough to do much damage. I imagine with a crew of us it could be decent-enough, and I suspect I'll have multiple characters in the final thing so if one class is better suited to things I can switch to that. But yeah, it's the rest of it that I really enjoyed and the PvP stuff is the least interesting right now.

Yeah I'm down, but the only thing is that means no Mario Kart today. That's not a massive issue, but just saying the times clash.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

OK, it's PlayStation based, but there's now a group/PS clan for Destiny for our lot:

Bungie : Clans : Belkan Airforce : Forum | Bungie.net

Go ahead and join. I'll need to give approval but I'll do that swiftly (and will make Skills and admin so he can do it too).

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I've not hated playing it solo, but the game is much more fun with people and so yeah would agree that you shouldn't bother unless you have someone you can get on with. It's amazing because a game so built on social play features no tools to actually engage in social aspects and create groups on the go. I've tried sending invites to people I've ended up fighting alongside and never get anywhere.

Skills has already touched on many of my thoughts as we've been discussing it. Basically that it's a good game that falls down in way too many places to be great. It's a shame because it's almost there, but I'll be damned if I fund a DLC campaign in the hope that they flesh out some of the hollow content that is in the base game.

And since I've now gotten there: I will say my biggest issue with end game progress is, as Skills points out, that it is entirely based on luck with drops. Until you grind to fuck to get to level 3 reputation with factions you have no chance to influence the quality of light gear you get so you're just waiting on the RNG to roll in your favour (which it does not seem inclined to do).

None of this is going to stop me playing the game, but it's not going to hold me attention too long once other games start dropping this month.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
