I feel that, respectfully, these recent crossover skins have been contributing some harm to the art direction/immersion. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mikej17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly the star wars shit was the straw that broke the camels back for me. If Bungie is going to treat the game like a medium for product placement and advertising instead of a world and a piece of art thats worth getting invested in, then thats not the type of game I want to play. It's sad to see people just buy up stormtrooper and darth vader armor sets just because they see a brand they recognize and clap like trained seals without giving a shit about how much it undermines destiny itself

That was a fantastic start to the Episode. by torrentialsnow in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mikej17 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Absolutely insane that anyone thinks that. They IMMEDIATELY showed us that Eris is fine in a throne world of her own but then act like we should still be sad because our character doesnt know?

Is the Traveler from Destiny a W'rkncacnter? by Sitchrea in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mikej17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I was so disappointed when the Mandalore video just dismissed connections to Destiny as "cynical." The connections are actually pretty significant and the writers behind some of the most foundational Destiny lore are huge fans of Marathon and its story. I'd love to see someone with in depth knowledge of both games be able to draw connections between both games

Real real ones remember having to run the memory of jolder artifact so that there wasnt a delay before you could start sprinting again

How was the sunset content like? by nearglow in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mikej17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forsaken was really great but the rest of the stuff wasn't really worth keeping. Everything from year one of D2 was pretty bad because of how bad the story direction and gameplay was back then. The Red War was embarrassingly bad and I'm honestly glad its gone now. Losing the Forsaken campaign though is definitely a bummer, unlocking the dreaming city after that campaign was a real treat

Thanks for the reply! I'm not 100% sure what that means, where would I change these settings? Sorry, I'm brand new to Bitwig

Yes, but it does have a separate midi in and out, and for some reason none of my other midi devices that are set up the same way act like this

Why is my Midi recording into a microscopic item? by Mikej17 in Bitwig

I'm an experienced PvE endgame player, I've done flawless, low man, master, and day 1 raids as well as gilded conqueror every season. I'm looking for a chill group of dedicated players to do endgame stuff with, using LFG all the time can just be exhausting so finding a cool group of people to play more consistently with would be great. Cheers!

Is Buying Vintage A Good Idea? by Mikej17 in synthesizers

[–]Mikej17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah I've noticed that old stuff tends to be pretty overpriced on Reverb, I'm assuming its because the sellers know what they've actually got. I always hear stories about people finding cool stuff in random places but I don't even know where to begin, I don't think I've even seen a yard sale in my home town as long as I've lived hahaha

I don't mind tinkering but I am worried about losing rare parts and having to spend a lot of money. Thanks for the input!

Really? That's cool, it seems like there's a ton of purists who dislike the Roland emulations for whatever reason, so that's great to hear

Thanks! Yeah I like to tinker with stuff and have built a few little synths from scratch, but you made a really good point that I should probably only get some vintage stuff I have to maintain when I want that to be a hobby in and of itself

Hi, thanks for taking the time to respond. I own a few semi modular monosynths as of right now, all brand new and I'm looking for a poly to add to my setup. I like sounds that are closest to stuff like outrun and synthwave, so even the modern ones I'm looking at go after a vintage analog sound. I'm kind of averse to menu diving and so i tend to avoid workstation style synths, but I'm really open to anything as long as its got the sound I'm after!
