[The End For Neogaf?]

Sexual abuse in general is a really big concern to a lot of people there. (Which it should be) A lot of discussion about it, especially when that story of the man working at Naughty Dog revealed he was a victim of such and Sony tried to pay him for his silence came up. So it's not totally surprising so many people jumped ship in such a way.

I’m not saying it shouldn’t be a concern. And as you said the speed of the escalation of the whole thing is astonishing to the point of stupidity. 

[The End For Neogaf?]

Can’t say I’m particularly miffed about this. Neogaf always seemed a bit of a shit show to me. I avoided it in the same way I avoid reddit. 

What a shitty house of cards though to just collapse at sexual harassment being leveled at the owner. It perfectly exemplifies why I didn’t like the place, plenty of users doing the internet equivalent of flipping their tables over and the moderation teams all whispering bye Felicia as they do a mic drop. It all comes off as childish bullshit.

the Token game that is the random loot is boring, collecting planet and faction tokens is redundant as they are always below your light level by quite a margin, so unless you get a gun you really want AND have something higher to infuse into it, its a waste of time

PVP, Strikes, The Raid, Iron Banner and everything rely on unique tokens and no longer drop any specific loot, there aren't any cool strike specific loots, looks for win streaks etc its all down to the seaside token machine that is the loot system

You can raise your light level by doing the weekly tasks and getting higher light level loot, the end game tasks do not guarantee this making it inefficient to replay or even bother with them - I'm light level 299, I'm swimming in (low level) exotics and forced to use the exotics/legendaries which have dropped at a level that they are useful at.

All guns feel weak and we seem to be back to year one D1 weapon balancing

Kinetic weapons (might just be me) just seem to rarely drop from any token machine, I've never got a kinetic mod

My points of contention, 

Vendor rewards soft cap about 10 power below your max. So yeah the rewards are mostly trash unless you want certain equipment. Once you hit 305 though the rewards typically are 295-300 even if not powerful gear from milestones.

Strikes and the Raid both do drop specific loot though. Or at least the nightfall does. And I have a Raid helm from defeating Calus and opening the chest. I have not gotten enough tokens to actually turn in for raid gear even. None of it is particularly cool or interesting though I do agree there. 

Weekly milestones make it far easier and faster to reach max than D1 end game. D1 you had weekly Nightfall and Raid rewards. PVP was all RNG and strike playlists all hit the soft cap on light. The same as D2. There was also the fact that light level drops could vary wildly in D1. 

Weapons are pretty weak and unfortunately by design. Bungie wanted to emphasize team firing. Which is cool. Except when you’re so fucking swarmed by adds you can’t team fire on the bosses typically. And if you focus on adds, well the boss is probably killing you. It’s bad design and everything is a bullet sponge. 

Kinectic mods are fucking rare as shit for no good reason and can only be obtained via RNG with the gunsmith by dismantling purple mods for mod components and then trading those in for random weapon mods. Like 1 in 20 chance it feels like to me. Somehow I’ve got two. 

 

My 2 cents. 

[Destiny 2]

@Rummy Exodus Down is what this weeks nightfall started as. It’s the failsafe nightfall involving Fallen enemies.

we gave it two attempts Tuesday night and timed out twice because the boss has a horrible habit of disappearing for 10-40 seconds at a time. Plus the adds. 

[Destiny 2]

Nightfall is pyramidion now? Why did it change from Exodus down? Hell when did this change happen? 

Edit, Destinystatus is hella inaccurate. It says I’ve idled 98 hours played 10 and only have just over 2000 kills. My Killtracker ghost in game lists my kills as being 21859/745 PvE/PvP respectively. 

[PlayStation 4 Console Discussion]

Yooo rouge trooper redux. I didn’t realize this was a thing. Never got to experience the original (nor the apparent Wii version?) so snatching that up now. Not jumping for the switch version though. 

 

There are also currently some decent deals on various horror related titles. Loosely defined horror. DMC4 and DmC both made the cut as did Metal Slug. Regardless, Alien Isolation Collection is 75% off Dead Island remastered is 75% RE7 Deluxe is 50%. 

Of course I just realized I’m assuming EU has same or similar sales as the US.

Excise me sir! I woyld like the lonf g story please!

Well. Long story long isn’t too much different really. 

Roomie was just going to be staying for a little bit. I was on the couch and then I notice he’s at the sttop of the stairs naked with a laptop and he his buddy. They’re doing whatever. I grab my phone to send snaps of thhis because it was funny as well as fucked. 

Somehow my mom shows up. While being distracted by that he somehow ends up downstairs dto fo some caming in the damn dining room. Walking around naked like it’s totally normal trying to have a conversation. I flipped ahit and started tueelling yelling. Somehow it came up he fucking moved his partner into my house as well. Which pisswd me off even further. I was fucking livid. I was about to call my friend to vent and then I woke up. 

[Drunken thread ftw!!!!!!!!!!!!]

Vaha bob sees wood above him. Boner jokes. 

I had a weird dream last night. Dreamt that a former roommate moved back in and long story short decided it was cool to be filming gay webcam porn all over the house. Like walked naked past me to film in the dining room. 

Naturally I flipped my shit and started yelling at him. And his film partner. Who had nice tits but no nipples, weird dream man.

Stay strong man. That shit sucks we all know. But you can’t force someothing the other peeson doesn’t want. 

Which makes my bext paragraph bitbof a dick move I think   By im power through it  

My night had had a strange uptick. Got a nice picture from the lady I’ve been crushin on for half a decade. (She’s only on the opposite side of the country is all)(and in a dirrefebt countrt). Shes my best friend though for real. Helping well...”helping” her pick a club outfit. She found pants instead of a dress or romper and was so excited to share them she didn’t have a shirt to go with. All in all it don’t mean nothing. 

 

Red wings beat Vegas Golden Knights! 6-3. They’re the first team to beat Vegas in the regular season. 

 

When buying my my whiskey I (autocorrect literally just added the second my. ) ran into an old friend from highschool. Haven’t seen him since literally highschool a decade ago. He’s tdoing well and told me he always thought I was a pretty good giu. So thats cool. I also told him no t to let his lady frien by $6 vodka. Like....thats her drink of choice. Bottom shelf tupretine. Yikes. 

[Drunken thread ftw!!!!!!!!!!!!]

I don’t even know what to say. Except that I meant to type Describe not Deceive. Usually I’m pretty luciasd lucid about my spelling aerrors. I didn’t ecen remember that ine as opposed to the fat baby typo. And the typi. 

 

I started this this message about an hour ago and got done stracted distracted* by a lady wearing a Wilds shirt at a redeings vs Coyotoes game. I had to take a snap of it to send. (Red Wings vs Coyotes) anyone anywho. Antways! @Glen-ihow about aa defintion for that??

 

ive got nothing now. Vodka and beer. Slefhatred and hockey!

how big is hockeh here? Like tlast year I almost made a thread but I’m pretty doubtful most of your u give. A shit about the NHL as opposed to maybe a local league

[Drunken thread ftw!!!!!!!!!!!!]

Antways could only be funny as either a simant joke. Or maybe as astretch an dieantword joke but I doubt it. 

 

Now yes. Go sleep you beautiful German bastard you. At least one of those adjectives is correct. Can gwrman be an adjective?or is it rude to deceive daomeone by thwir nationality/heritagw?

[Drunken thread ftw!!!!!!!!!!!!]

Maybe one day I’ll make a pilgrimage to visit Germany. Though, don’t be offended please, I’ve never been that interested in visitwing:/. Like it would be cool and I wouldn’t turn down a trip. I just think I’d rather visit like Ireland or Japan (Okinawa srea. Best sushi according to my former marine buddy) or Moscow because I love the architecture. But I’ve done less for drinking buddies. Wow that sentence got away from me wuick. It should mean I would enjoy drinking with you and would possibly make the trip. 

Antways or anyways. Eitherway bot (bot(not!!)) a word. (All 3 of them)

 

yall is missing out though. I garuntee (no typis I’m just bad at that word) because I’m drinking Founders Breakfast Stout. Brewed here in Michigan, it’s a Double Chocolate Coffee Oatmeal Stout and it is so fucking vgood an 8% and so dark I t it looks like cocacola. If someohow it’s imported and you see it for sale I highly recommend it. Imalso driving wait no not that. Srinking....close enough. A Detroit made vodka. It’s brettybgood as far as cvodkas god. 

How do you tell someone you love them? Haaatrick question you don’t because knowledge is power. And also because you know better and tha t nothing is reciprocated.

ALSO. Finally playing MMGS5. ....Ground Zeroews. Never gave it a fair play a few years back. Figured I should before I dive into phantom pain

lookitdatfartvabyearungoatmeal. Holyshit. Fatbabyeating justwow 

[Destiny 2]

Hit 305 power, not with my most optimal Kinetic weapon though. Near as I can tell that’s the current hard cap. I’ve yet to see anyone with higher than 305 gear. 

Iron Banner is a mixed bag. First match I was by myself and hated it. Last night did about 4 matches in a row no losses with full clan fireteam. Ironically we are actually horrible at teamwork and call outs. 

Far simpler to hit end game levels than Destiny 1. The weekly milestones really help things along even if you play solo. 

[Gran Turismo Sport (Let it cooook)]

Granted I haven’t played Driveclub since neat release, I think a lot of games top it visually. Maybe not for pure photo realism but that’s not the only metric I judge visuals by personally. Alternatively, I haven’t played it, what about Project Cars?

[Xbox One Console Discussion]

Just wait until one day you update it and....we’ll thats it black screen of death. It’s been happening forever and still happens. That’s the case with my One S, the fix might be to download firmware to a usb stick, and somehow magically follow instructions that literally don’t work (and seem to switch halfway through from One S to vanilla One hardware) to boot into a safe mode of sorts. 

I gave up and it’s just sitting being awful upstairs where I don’t have to look at it.

People who've done the raid: How much time would it take to complete it?

Blind? Hours and hours. I haven’t don’t all of it, but the parts I have attempted are so dependent on every player being damn near perfect with their execution. Even knowing what to do exactly it took hours to finally defeat Calus. (Also running out of ammo was happening to the entire fire team, for energy and kinetic)

[Destiny 2]

Slight (un)humblebrag. 

Midway through the match (after round 2 or 3 I believe) I was 8.5 Efficiency. And only in chat with my clan mate.  My Destiny 2 competitive career has peaked.
