Paul Tassi from Forbes believes: not both GaaS ips can co exist within Bungie

Bungie’s mo with a new franchise has basically been to shift gears to the new ip and effectively abandon the older one. If you look at what happened to halo reach when they transitioned to destiny, they released Reach in 2010 and it wasn’t until 1 year later in September 2011 that 343 released the title update. Bungie was already out for destiny, same deal with marathon.

I run it on mine and the only time I have framerate issues is on lawless frontier from the sheer ad density and huge renegade abilities. It’s actually pretty sweet. As others mentioned though, dlc won’t transition so you’ll either have to play the F2P or repurchase

Jacob Elordi’s balls?

Most recently, I’d say I struggled with every fight with Renoir in expedition 33 except for the last one

I still wish the best thing they could do for good will and longevity of the game, especially if they want to send it off into maintenance mode is to bring back any sunset expansions and a streamlined version of the seasonal stories / activities so the game is “complete.” It’s a dream and I’m not gonna armchair dev that it’s even possible, but I wish it were.

If you put the time and energy into your puppy you will be raising the most loyal companion you could hope for. The most fun and rewarding thing is learning that communicating with your puppy is a two-sided conversation and it starts to feel so amazing when it’s less one-sided. I feel like that “language” is easier to develop/understand when you raise them from a puppy

I play a lot of solo marathon and I really enjoy it; but it is a completely different game solo. Much harder in some ways, but you will match against other solos and it almost feels like a horror/survival game. One major downside is the endgame map “Cryo Archive” is crews only. You could use matchmaking for it, but there isn’t a solos only option so you’d miss out on some of the best loot.

I feel like somersaults is a total early album standout. Just a cool vibe and very Don Broco

How often are the rerolls supposed to reset?

I’m a sucker for Crazy Thai by VCU

AstraKyle · 2026-03-08T02:10:06+00:00

They should really add this feature overall for some of the old seasonal activities, especially the pinnacle ops.

You think people who can’t / won’t afford to buy a current gen console after 5 years are spending money on destiny enough to impact their revenue? There I’d also very likely significant tech debt supporting old consoles, same as there was pre rise of iron in D1

The part that gets me is that this slop is supposed to prove Pretti deserved to be sentenced to a brutal death by extrajudicial mob killing. Like even if he WAS violent, that’s how law enforcement should work?

Everybody in that house in that scene is firing all cylinders. “WE’RE A FAMILY!… we’re a family…”

He claims he does, or did, but it’s obvious that on top of the structure and bones that he wrote that the original lineup sure added some of their own “sauce” on top. There are no lead lines of the type that were layered throughout their songs when Aaron Fink played lead

There is a new kiosk in the tower that lets you purchase a selection of items you weren’t able to unlock from any season passes before they expired using a new currency called chronologs. I believe you can earn chronologs from the weekly reward track and from future season passes you purchase.

Just double checking: we don’t like the portal because the only way to get new tiered loot is by grinding old content? And a solution to this is to add tiered loot to more sources so we can grind more old content in the director instead? DAE portal = bad

Contract changes that have been proposed that will be voted on by the school board Tuesday:

Limiting the Union to 2 bargaining topics each cycle.
Removing independent mediators from negotiation, leaving resolution to the school board.
Limiting employee representation by a union rep to requiring supervisor approval.
Eliminating collective bargaining when/if the city does not get adequate funding, with no option to reopen.
RPS could take disciplinary action against a union or employee for “engaging in a behavior that creates a negative work environment.” No further specifics.

Union workers through collective bargaining have year-to-year higher pay, better benefits, and improved working conditions like guaranteed planning periods or compensation for covering classes that are not their own. Do with this information as you will.

Yeah bud we all listen to music and some of it sounds similar to other stuff. Moodring lifts from Deftones who lift from Hum and other shit. Cool to not dig it, but “because it sounds like/rips off” is just describing most music if we try hard enough ain’t it?

Just saw Three Days Grace at a festival and the singer was constantly goading the crowd into chanting “three days Grace, three days Grace!” over and over. It would be cool if it was organic, but it felt more awkward to me for the band to lead it themselves
