treiz01 posted:This is by far the most confusing thing. If you're already using Blizzard's game client to handle your PC services, why not have the same dedicated servers used for LITERALLY ALL BLIZZARD GAMES Jesus christ can you imagine the servers go down, the masses wwould cry that destiny is the reason they can't play overwatch/wow/hearthstone I'm somewhat excited for this, but I'll reserve judgement until I see more of it in action. I played the Destiny 2 demo aka Destiny up until around the time they got rid of dinklebot - by which point I'd already lost all hope for that dumpster fire of a game. Raiding in an FPS was pretty awesome though and was the only thing I really enjoyed Linx fucked around with this message at 12:42 on May 19, 2017 |

Zo posted:Whooo finally destiny on pc!!! and here I am happy enough that I made back my money on that game, holy poo poo Zo posted:I actually earned around $20k from it, paid taxes and everything.. it was a wild summer. only thing is near the start, my main account with all my blizzard games got banned and locked from d3 with like $500 on it so I was never able to cash that money out (since the only way to cash out bnet balance was through d3 -> paypal and I was banned)

Minrad posted:So I never played Destiny 1, but I had a friend who played it and was sad that he never got to play it with friends b/c we're all PC gamers. What was/were the problems with it? The more difficult (best) content was no-matchmaking and relied on 3rd party LFG sites if you wanted to play them. The droprates of items were and absolute joke to begin with, I think that was mostly addressed by the time I bailed. The universe has great lore but they decided that the best way to deliver it was through some weird grimoire system, and the main "story" was incredibly barebones. The raids I played (1st and 2nd) were legitimately some of the best FPS experiences I've had though, and they seem to have learned their lesson from the mistakes of the last game so who knows, it could be good  . On another note, did they ever fire that dumb loving community manager they had? DeeJ was it? Guy seemed a bit out of touch with the playerbase, unless it was because he could only work with what the higher ups were telling him Linx fucked around with this message at 14:10 on May 19, 2017 |

Minrad posted:but was the actual content good? thanks to OW I know a dozen people that are more or less good at FPS games now and would be on board for Destiny 2 thanks to being on battle.net. that part seems like a smart move on Blizzard's part; they've spent the better part of the last ten years trying to make everyone be friends and create a social media network for co-op games like overwatch and hots and now, destiny. I mean the content was good for sure, but even after the first expansion dropped I felt that it was spread way too thin. Honestly the game should have shipped with all of the content it ended up with, but I'd probably still have gotten bored of it. Once you had your weekly content done it was garbage unless you wanted to play the PvP mode which I personally hated

Minrad posted:How much of that content is being ported to Destiny 2? People seemed upset with the lack of new content but hell, it's all new to me. None afaik Not at all trying to put you off the game btw, I actually think it will be good. I'm a bit bitter about the first one because I actually bought my PS4 to play it. Massive props to those that could stick it out til the last content but I just couldn't do it

My only complaint is the cringey rear end dialogue. It's almost as bad as The Division

To be honest that seems a lot less "blizzard making GBS threads on the little guy" and more them defending their intellectual property. I'm sure the developers knew exactly what they were getting into when they decided to reverse engineer software owned by a huge company. Why do we even need an open source bnet launcher anyway, who is it targeted at? EDIT: Is this about playing on non-blizzard sanctioned servers...?
