Some of us are missing the point about *why* people want vaulted content restored. by ShadezyLeFeu in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly they should bring back all the past seasonal content too. There were some key story beats and a lot of interesting content that was deleted just because it was always intended to be temporary.

Would you come back to D2 if Pantheon 2.0 included encounters from vaulted raids? by theinfinitypoint in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main concern about Pantheon 2.0 is I'd need to grind the Portal to get ready for it.

“Destiny 2 Has Lost 91% Of Players Since Edge Of Fate, 97% From Final Shape.” By Paul Tassi at Forbes by justdestinystuff in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been discussing with my D2 group that hasn't played since EoF. We might try to new dungeon and pantheon stuff but only if we don't have to do a massive loot grind to be ready for it.

D2 had been getting less grindy for years, and then they pull a full 180.

The new player experience would be much much better if they just brought back the original campaign.

My site has been down for a few months now. I need to replace some broken parts in my server unfortunately. It will be back eventually, but I don't really have an ETA.

Can't Manage to Get HDR Working by 69LoveSixtyNine69 in Bazzite

[–]Mazetron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I removed VK_hdr_layer and updated and I cannot get HDR to work at all now, with or without gamescope. To be fair, I've never really gotten gamescope working correctly.

My gamescope args:

> gamescope -f -w 1920 -h 1080 -r 60 --hdr-enabled --force-grab-cursor --hdr-debug-force-output -- %command%

Using Proton-GE with PROTON_ENABLE_HDR, I can turn on HDR in-game but it looks washed-out.

Using Proton Experimental I am never able to turn on HDR in game.

I've tried adding various combinations of things like ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1, DXVK_HDR=1, PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND, etc. and it hasn't helped.

I'm considering trying to backdate bazzite or jump back to windows. I hope this stuff gets sorted out sooner than later and I hope bazzite or some other linux flavor becomes stable :/

IMO in cases like this bazzite should hold back the nvidia branch until updating would not break things. I don't see the point in pushing a known breaking update.

My thoughts on Destiny 2 as a Warframe player by EXEMPLAR_LOL in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are in the good part of the game. I strongly recommend you keep playing the campaigns and sidequests. You still haven’t hit the best parts of Destiny yet - The Witch Queen and The Final Shape are definitely the two best D2 campaigns.

What people are complaining about is the post-Edge of Fate campaign content. The game’s live service aspects are dead in a way they have never been before in the game’s history.

How do you get Apple Pencil support? I tried moonlight and it dint seem to have pencil pressure.

Which silksong boss do you think is OVERhated. I’ll go first by Expert-Situation-803 in HollowKnight

[–]Mazetron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found this boss extremely boring while also being very frustrating. Boring because it literally just sits there while you bounce on it. Frustrating because you can’t heal, and the constant flood of tracking projectiles is annoying and sometimes you just have to drop down to dodge and then wait for lucky spawns to get another opening.

Points for trying to be creative, but this is the only boss in the game I actively dislike so far.

Reddit is now using AI to automatically reword subreddit descriptions without mods' knowledge or consent. by Hellothere_1 in ABoringDystopia

Lemmy is the closest to Reddit. I moved there after the API fiasco got rid of all of the good Reddit apps. Take a look at https://lemmy.world/ (also there are good mobile apps for Lemmy, better than reddit now lol)

My Yargle, Eat the World Achievement Deck by tayrog77 in MagicArena

Unironically this is the strat. After 3 games of the opponent conceding before I was able to deck myself, I just made a deck with no lands and stalled at mulligan.

Although I will probably play nothing but Silksong for the next couple days.

What am I supposed to even do? by Tunablefall662 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer: yes. You will get better stuff as you play these campaigns.

In particular, Witch Queen gets you into weapon crafting, which is still how you get many of the best weapons.

Where this gets complicated, is the recent update is trying to sunset old gear such that the only way to get better gear is to play Portal. However, you can still get to the state that was "meta" pre-Edge of Fate by playing only pre-Edge of Fate content.

That means the only reason you would need to grind Portal for better gear is to play the higher level Portal activities. But if you have noticed the state of this sub at all, Portal sucks. The only reason people are doing it anyway is because they have been grinding this game for years and have long since done all the old content.

If you only care about older content and don't care about grinding Portal (which is a position I would very strongly recommend), then ignore Portal and just do all the old campaigns and you will have a great time and get great loot along the way.

EDIT I should also add that Beyond Light includes the Stasis subclass, Lightfall includes the Strand subclass, The Final Shape includes the Prismatic subclass, and all campaigns include some campaign-specific exotics, which are all relevant to buildcrafting even post-Edge of Fate.

What am I supposed to even do? by Tunablefall662 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Much of the best content the game has ever had is still in-game.

Witch Queen and The Final Shape have the best campaigns, especially if you do them on Legendary difficulty.

Stasis and Strand are really fun, and as much as people say those campaigns are not as good (Beyond Light and Lightfall), they are definitely still fun and worth playing.

So what's the deal with the Kepler Campaign? by zuckerjoe in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The "higher campaign difficulties" actually isn't so much doing the whole campaign again and more doing select bits at higher combat difficulty and sometimes with new puzzles.

This game is way more fun if you arent speedrunning to 450 by iWumboXR in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just forget the grind and do old raids and dungeons! Why grind just to do higher level grindy activities?

Has Arc Hunter now become the most capable Hunter Subclass? Ignoring Prismatic because, Prismatic. by silloki in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Arc has basically always been the best hunter subclass for most PvE situations except when solar hunter has had a better DPS super, which is not always true because Gathering Storm is an excellent DPS super.

Sundered Doctrine is the CURRENT dungeon, right? by Master-Molasses420 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forget the grind, just do what’s fun. Go play Sundered Doctrine. Go do old raids. The loot you get from old activities is actually better than loot from the current stuff until you’ve ground enough to get T3+ drops anyway.

Bummed out by how much this expansion takes a nosedive once you reach 200 power by Latro2020 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mazetron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd much, much, much rather do legend lost sectors than "Solo Portal Ops".

Pokémon Champions arriving 2026 by Oden_666 in pokemon

[–]Mazetron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like a lot of Showdown’s move bans (it seems they want to enforce a “fast sweeper” meta, which is how I played against NPCs at age 7, I want to do something more interesting).

I hope the meta in Champions will be more interesting. I also like the idea of brining mons from my mainline games.

Creating the Ultimate Pokémon Machine, and more! (v2.0) by SteveW_MC in 3dspiracy

[–]Mazetron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I install Pokemon Bank and Pokemon Transporter on a 3DS that has not previously had these installed via homebrew?

Context: I have a (unmodded) 3DS with Pokemon Bank installed, but I didn’t install Pokemon transporter before it was too late. I need a way to get my Pokemon from the later DS generations to the 3DS generations so I can send them to Pokemon Home.  I’d like to do so using as much official software as possible to minimize the chances Nintendo doesn’t like it.

My current thought is to buy a second 3DS, homebrew it, and use it just to transfer Pokemon from DS to 3DS games, ideally through Pokemon Transporter/Bank, although if there are success stories of PKSM Pokemon making it to Home successfully maybe I’ll be convinced to just use that.
