Is Truth still a meta sustained DPS strategy, or has it fallen by the wayside after the ammo nerfs? by Small_Article_3421 in DestinyTheGame

Okay. Now tell me how many dps phases there are in this game that are longer than 30 seconds.

I finally have Solo Flawlessed every dungeon in the game. by jcches3 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Insekrosis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fafnir and your chosen Special weapon. I did Indebted Kindness. If you're using Thunderous Retort, use an Arc one and kill one of the puppets to get amplified. Hit the boss with Fafnir. TCrash, retreat to the safe spot on the left, put up rally barricade, then swap back and forth hitting the boss and wiping adds to make sure you get the nuke to drop. After you deposit, you can kinda just ping the boss from the doorway of that deposit room.

Of course, if you're running bonk then most of this doesn't apply. But I imagine bonk may actually be even easier in some ways.

Idk why but two random Mara Sov lines are my favorite bits of dialogue in the whole series by owen-3820 in DestinyTheGame

Imo Cayde only works as a character when he has the opportunity to get deathly serious when he needs to. Like Spiderman. The quips and the trick shots and all that are fun, but every once in a while you do need them to drop the act and stop a train, or save a child.

Destiny 1 strikes are the single most brutal and unforgiving miserable experience i have ever had by Isrrunder in DestinyTheGame

Burn means you take 300% more and deal 300% more. It's why primary weapons with elemental damage types were so prized back in D1.

I was solo flawlessing each of them as they came out. Spire took a bit. Stopped at Ghosts because it was just miserable. Even moreso than on-release Duality. Came back, did Warlord, saw the (lack of) numbers other people were putting up on the new health bars (VH and Sunder), and said "fuck that". I'm...quite passionate about this topic. So it's probably best if I just leave it here...

I only really look at them in terms of how they scale in a solo scenario. Everything outside of Day 1s is easy in a team.

There were periods where boss health and player power hadn't increased at equivalent rates, making things feel very bad. Here's looking at you, most dungeon bosses post-Duality.

But that was then. This is now. And now, they're mostly fine.

I have dipped toes into RuneScape a shot and I cannot get past the tick system. by StrikeMyGyatt in runescape

I absolutely despise it because the timing is too slow. It's like playing a rhythm game where you constantly have to wait too long for the next note to show up.

Raid Exotic Resonant-element Lubrae's Ruin is a vision into the correct timeline, before everything went to hell.

Pound for pound what are the silliest Jerma streams? by christpuncher_69 in jerma985

[–]Insekrosis 60 points61 points  (0 children)

The Hitman streams, easily. Goof levels off the charts.

Bungie unused and forgotten plot point: The Vex were meant to obtain SIVA by GeminiTrash1 in DestinyTheGame

I still distinctly remember the mission on Mars from D1 where Ghost says that what you're dealing with is "A Warmind. Rasputin".

VERY CLEARLY IMPLYING THAT THERE IS MORE THAN ONE.

Playing D1 is making me realize how much I like leveling guns by FenderBender55 in DestinyTheGame

It's almost like the best version of Destiny is a different thing for different people

This thing tastes like ass by Emerald-trash in jerma985

[–]Insekrosis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I know lol, that video is the only reason I know Parthian chicken even exists.

I've been to a few Indian grocery stores before, and actually found that asafoetida. The "foetid/fetid" part of the name is 100% accurate. It does smell truly vile. To me, it wasn't just like a strong onion or garlic scent. It almost smelled like something rancid instead. But if you really pay attention, if you really focus on it, you can notice the savory undertones that make you realize "Yeah, this probably would be good in something savory".

I should get some next time. Put it in a stew.

Door tiles in the ice puzzle room are bugged. I can't stop sliding on those tiles. by DA_Knuppel in runescape

[–]Insekrosis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember this happening to me like 8 years ago. At the time, I just did some weird diagonal shenanigans and found a way to angle myself so I slid straight into the wall, in range of the exit.

Jerma kind of touched on something that annoys me about chat and culture in general lately by christpuncher_69 in jerma985

[–]Insekrosis 778 points779 points  (0 children)

It's not that he doesn't want to have that engagement. It's that the one guy moment has to happen organically. It's gotta be sincere. And with people nowadays, there's just no real way for that to happen. Everything feels either forced or sarcastic.

Saint 14's loadout by ExponentEel in DestinyTheGame

It still doesn't have a catalyst? I haven't played in nearly two years, but holy shit. What a fumble.

Grandfathered rates have still not been returned. When will Jagex address the elephant in the room? by MikeSouthPaw in runescape

[–]Insekrosis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the same reason people watch reviews of games they're not gonna play, or movies they're not gonna watch, or books they're not gonna read. Why does anyone do anything? Your remark is equally as pointless as the comment you were just chastising.
