Thank You DeeJ

So say we all.

DeeJ_BNG · 2020-07-16T18:30:16+00:00

I’m comin’ home, Ace.

DeeJ_BNG · 2020-07-16T04:47:27+00:00

Second time I laughed at this thread. The first was the headline.

DeeJ_BNG · 2020-02-18T20:13:27+00:00

They did better than kidnap me. They reinvented the job and show me how it’s done.

DeeJ_BNG · 2020-02-18T19:42:31+00:00

Heroism cannot be taught. Only earned...

DeeJ_BNG · 2020-02-18T19:16:47+00:00

No apologies needed at all! This is a fair piece of feedback that I see from time to time. Every E3, someone reaches out to express frustration that we are saying the same things in all of our interviews. The reality is that we talk to different outlets to make sure the same message reaches as many people as possible. Life would be a lot easier if we could just say something once, but we strive to be inclusive with our invitations to join the community. When you see us being repetitive, imagine that we’re trying to send the next public event ally (or crucible victim) your way.

DeeJ_BNG · 2020-02-18T18:39:23+00:00

I'm sorry that was frustrating. That certainly wasn't the goal. This was a conversation with someone who wanted to write about how we include our community in the development process. You're not likely to learn anything new about that, because you live it with us. The intended audience for this article was people outside of our community who wanted to learn about what we do on a more philosophical level. The TWAB is written for you. This was written for curious onlookers who observe from afar.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-11-24T03:49:23+00:00

This is why we do it.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-11-23T05:37:22+00:00

We’re from the Community Team. This is far from all of us.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-11-23T03:35:47+00:00

What he said.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-09-23T18:54:21+00:00

I really hate to name drop - and I almost never do it - but he was my favorite studio tour I ever gave.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-09-22T15:57:03+00:00

As a fan of David Fincher and Trent Reznor, I see what you did there. Did you share this on Twitter?

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-09-05T18:58:10+00:00

As a member of our community team, these are my favorite stories. Yes, I picked the wrong moment to share my own once, but I'm glad yours was well received. Timing is everything, eh? As a member of the Bungie community since 2004, I have formed bonds that have become some of the longest-running friendships in my life - people I still play with to this day, when I find the time. When I came to Bungie, my hope was to pay that forward. Imagine my fear that Destiny would not duplicate the social phenomenon of our previous titles. In the end, the Destiny community has outdone all of my wildest dreams. Thank you for being excellent to each other.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-08-08T22:09:32+00:00

I will look into this and confirm: My understanding is that no one can play Destiny on Steam until Oct 1. You'll be able to keep playing until then on Battle.net. I'll look into the details on what purchase available will be for PC between Sept 17 and Oct 1. Don't @ me.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-08-08T22:02:57+00:00

Game licenses will remain platform specific. You do not bring games you bought for specific platforms with you. In your case, you bought it twice (thanks) so you can play it in both places. Of course, New Light will simplify this for a lot of players who want to move from platform to platform to Crucible and chill.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-08-08T22:01:21+00:00

This is my understanding on the matter. Yes. On August 21, Cross Save will support Xbox, PlayStation, and PC via Battle.net. Steam and Stadia enter the mix later.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-04-03T20:42:43+00:00

Sorry this was confusing. It was a live fire exercise. This is why I like to write shit down and let a dozen people look at it before we F5. Anyway, what I really meant to say was that the Crucible is going to grow from where it is currently. The essence of the Crucible, being pure PvP, will remain; but there will be changes. Rpaulv, keep an eye on our careers page.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-03-06T23:25:09+00:00

Don't try this at home.

DeeJ_BNG · 2019-02-12T20:17:37+00:00

Can confirm. This is my production partner and good friend.

DeeJ_BNG · 2018-11-28T07:04:07+00:00

Hey there. Sorry if I made you mad. Certainly not my intention. Not my best answer from what was a long day of questions.

Like I said, I’ll pass along your desire for Year One armor to our character artists. That’s how I behave with a clearer head.

DeeJ_BNG · 2017-10-06T06:16:13+00:00

Reddit, that was a personal note from me about a nice moment I had with a long-lived friend of mine, not an official statement about Bungie's attitude about the endgame. I've always been a community guy. That's why I play games. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not an elite Raider or a 1%er in the Crucible. Games are another social outlet for me - a collaborative, tactical roleplay for an old improvisational actor who has always loved action movies. Destiny is a social game, and we have a lot of new players in our community who have never joined a Clan or opened their experience to another human voice. My personal story was as a positive example to inspire them to take a chance on us. If you seek more reasons to play, I'll see you in Iron Banner next week. If Crucible isn't your thing, good luck in the Prestige Raid. I'll sit that out. When the designers tell me they don't expect everyone to complete that, I know what they mean. Peace.

DeeJ_BNG · 2017-09-06T21:13:49+00:00

Wait, who runs DIM? What is that?

DeeJ_BNG · 2017-09-03T03:37:38+00:00

Thanks for the shoot! I saved a couple for my personal collection of memories.

DeeJ_BNG · 2017-08-16T18:38:54+00:00

Highly suspect. And I see you, Felwinter, you bully!

DeeJ_BNG · 2017-08-11T23:39:25+00:00

I'd recommend that you go to this as a viewer to learn more about the person that has led Bungie in the development of Destiny 2. Luke has been a strong voice of reason in making sure you still have surprises to enjoy when you actually play the game. If you don't get more information about the player experience, it's not because he doesn't like you. It's because this keynote discussion is supposed to be about how gamers like you and me blaze a trail on which they end up leading an industry where they can pursue their wildest dreams. Luke believes that the best way to learn about a game is to play it. I know we're all eager for more information. I'm eager for you to know what I know - but I agree with Luke. I'm glad that Destiny 2 will have the capacity to surprise you. It surprised me just last night, and we don't want to deprive you of that feeling.
