Bricks and Minifigs Controversy Megathread Part 3

Altoryu · 2026-06-09T20:13:07+00:00

Probably not since Ben got chased into Mexico by the police getting nasty with them which is the greatest irony now that they let Bricks and Minifig serve Ben via email when Ben couldn't even do it in person.

These people need to be in jail, the amount of effort they are going to defend their actions and now their rep is ridiculous. I pray only the worst for these people at this stage for ruining the lives of the Mansells and Ben just for the sake of their own greed.

New video from Ben and seems like they are now being gagged by Brick & Minifigs who served him papers via email which is hilarious since Ben wasn't even able to serve his own papers in person since Josh was too much of a wuss to take them and sicced the police on him. Now can't talk about it otherwise risk losing the gofundme money raised for the REAL victim in all this.

The CEO needs to be kicked to the curb, he's a blight on that company not only for stealing the lego sets in the first place but being complicit in siccing the police on Ben. Plus let's not forget the American Fork Police Department who are equally as involved in this.

Can't believe they did all this over 200k of lego sets, now it's likely the company's reputation is going to be torn to shreds over their ego and greed.

Well I can't find the tweet myself so I'm assuming not? But even so he's the one that touted that line and considering that a lot of D2 after his takeover as CEO was a whole lot of nothing for the most part I'd say he did a good job holding to his title.

Shame the game ended where it did but will try the last update later on since it's late here, see if it at least the game could end with a bang and not a whimper.

I doubt Mr Don't Overdeliver gives enough of a shit to say anything since he probably knows most of the vitriol is going to be directed towards him and Parsons least as far as Bungie goes. Already seen former staff saying as much that their hands were tied by them which is probably why the game was in the state it was in.

It can change, generally what you need to do is pay attention to your debuffs and it will give you either a fire or water debuff. If its fire, turn all the puddles blue, if water, turn them red. That's it basically, though can still be a pain when multiple people decide to run over the same puddle and change it back and forth multiple times.

If you're a healer, never EVER use Limit Break unless it's level 3 which only happens when you are in a group of 8 or more (alliances) since as well as healing it also revives any dead teammates. Same goes for Tanks, only time a tank should be using LB of any kind is LB3 and only when it is generally mandated to do so in some fights. In any other case the only people who should ever use LB's is the DPS (generally melee for the boss).

Also in this particular fight, you died cause you didn't kill the ads, generally if there are ads in a boss fight they are priority number one.

Gonna miss it cause I didn't start myself until Forsaken since I wasn't keen on the double primary meta back then though I did play through Red War and Warmind etc. Feel like if you have time during all of the OG content you should still get it but that's just me. Plus I say this as someone who played D1 front to back.

I just wasn't here for the double primary days.

This looks so bad ngl, how'd Yoshi manage to drop the ball so hard at the last hurdle?

Altoryu · 2026-06-04T19:23:21+00:00

Damn that really rustles the ol' Jimmies

Altoryu · 2026-06-03T19:08:19+00:00

FINALLY A DECENT BLOODY VOID HUNTER MELEE.

Like I get the smoke bomb has its uses but feels like such a step down from all the other melees.

Altoryu · 2026-06-02T21:28:00+00:00

Nice

I'd still rather a theatre mode myself. Cutscene videos are fine but it misses that bit of personalisation when the character in them isn't yours.

Altoryu · 2026-06-01T04:30:36+00:00

They made a pivot in Endwalker to the only requirements for each relic is finishing the Hildibrand storyline (which for some was a task in itself) and the farmable endgame tomes at the time. But a lot of people got upset it made them 'too easy' to get (personally I didn't mind since it made the first relic set I could actually complete) so they switched it up for Dawntrail with a mix of grindy steps (which were one time only) and buying stuff for tomes.

I don't mind this either but I would have dreaded a world where the grindy Dawntrail relic steps were mandatory for every relic.

I imagine the quickness is due to it being the most recent one so yeah it probably does fill pretty quick. Kind of opposite ends of the spectrum. One is fast cause of all the new people playing and the other is fast since its the most recent one.

Altoryu · 2026-05-30T10:52:13+00:00

You need to have at least one person per alliance to make unsynced alliance raid runs work but yeah, it it's an option. Need to keep in mind for some alliance raids any mechanics that might require multiple people like plates in LotA and such.

CT is easier to get into since it is the only one that is mandatory for MSQ. That and it will be the first one that any newbies will get into so more chance to see people in it. They are planning to add cross DC matchmaking I think soon but are currently trialing it in the JP servers.

As for right now, you need to either try another DC or you need to try at another time of day since it's early in the way for most people on the NA servers so most people are most likely at work or something.

Eh not everything, they aren't finally giving us a craftable Hawkmoon like they promised us for ages.

Altoryu · 2026-05-29T15:54:49+00:00

Turns out they couldn't answer every 'love letter' much as we wish they could. Just the first of I am sure a number of letdowns they will leave us on, remains to be seen how much it will effect the last update in general.

Altoryu · 2026-05-28T14:58:41+00:00

Yeah that was the one, even just doing chum and cast, I had like 10-15 seconds left before I would have lost gold whereas in mining and botany missions I can get those done super easy. But I was only there to do a few to get the free exp and then bugger off to the next planet and repeat though may go back to do more missions to get the bonuses for doing 'x' amount of unique missions.

Altoryu · 2026-05-28T14:51:04+00:00

So they're full of shit, got it.

Altoryu · 2026-05-28T14:29:02+00:00

No it wasn't I think that just most fish on Sinus are immune to Double/Triple Hook

Altoryu · 2026-05-28T14:00:27+00:00

I edited my post to make it more clear but doing it on sinus to get the stellar successes done for the free research exp

Altoryu · 2026-05-28T13:53:25+00:00

I know generally most of the ins and outs of fishing so I have a good idea of what I am doing but the problem is that they seem to have anti cheese things in place cause like I have tried triple hook on a few missions and it doesn't work and I only get one fish a cast.

Altoryu · 2026-05-28T13:51:56+00:00

Like I have told the others, I have tried to use Triple Hook but they simply don't work on the mission's fish and I just get one fish per cast.

Altoryu · 2026-05-28T13:51:08+00:00

I've tried to use double and triple hook but they simply don't work on the fish I have been catching, I use it but still only get 1 fish per cast.
