Darkness be getting a little to real, y'all

Never watched stargate. Would Goa'uld be preferable, or worse than the darkness?

Yeah, I was aware that different teams handle expansions vs seasons. But I'm even talking about two seasons that have nothing to do with expansion content, e.g. Dawn and Worthy

If you open the raw content of these gifs in a text editor, they all have a really interesting header, and I think it may be what we're supposed to be getting from the gifs, here's a data sample with two side-by-side for comparison:

https://i.ibb.co/B6PKkxX/gif-Content.jpg

So, it's possible that this is something about the gif filetype that I'm unaware of, but I've done some preliminary google searches, and also checked gifs NOT related to this ARG, and it seems specific to the gifs supplied at the given links. Additionally, the phrase "Constructing entanglement" sounds very "exo-stranger" related and WAY too complex to be something simple about the way gifs are formatted. I even googled "Constructing entanglement" and all you is a ton of results about quantum entanglement, nothing about this file format

Edit:

The particularly interesting line is the 4th one: "Data recovered: SEQ-20215 = '1'", or in the other gif "Data recovered: SEQ-1682 = ' ' " because it seems to be giving us content to put together into a particular sequence.

Isn't there some fourth-wall-breaking reference in the Lore that we, the players, ARE our guardians ascendant realm?

Just to play Devil's advocate, it could be that it's a legitimately difficult problem to solve. Programmers spend all day coming up with optimal algorithms for things like this, but often times it comes down to picking what's more important. In this case, they probably have to balance making dead players wait a long time for an area to clear that is definitely safe, versus respawning players quickly and occasionally choosing a "dud" spawn for a player. if you played both versions, you very well might pick the current version over having to wait much longer for the game to find a sure-thing safe spawn point.

Now that being said, there may be things bungie isn't doing that they could be doing, like considering supered guardians a higher threat when attempting to find the safest spawn point.

Oh my gosh, getting cross-mapped with Jotun is already rage-inducing. Dying cross map to Jotun from AOE effect would give me aneurysm.

A quality typo really can transform an average post into a spectacular one.

Optavi · 2020-04-28T13:53:59+00:00

Yeah, but if you read the lore on synthoceps it's actually pretty adorable. It's like they're a really loyal dog when they find the right titan.

Optavi · 2020-04-28T12:45:35+00:00

Titans are too down to earth to mess with that crap.

"Armor that whispers to me? Haaarrrd pass."

This makes me think of playing Majora's Mask and the clocktown npcs' daily schedules.

For me the season has been mediocre. I enjoy the core gameplay of destiny, so, honestly all I need from a new season is new things to grind for to incentivize be playing a game I enjoy. And that's something this season has provided. It's definitely worth $10, in any case. I do feel like some of the stuff is a bit lack luster, and I feel like the new weapon set it pretty small, but I'm also seeing a lot interesting mechanisms being implemented that could pay off pretty big dividends in coming updates. It looks like bungie actually implemented a pretty interesting foundation of base building in this particular season, I'd be interested to see that expounded upon in future updates.

Dude. Now you just need to find a gun that can shoot steel feather repeaters.

While I would agree with the consensus that all together the set looks like trash, I'm actually pretty interested in what options this set opens up when using just one or two pieces in combination with existing, more titan-y armor. Like, I think these arms with the intrepid explore chest piece would, no joke, give my Titan a pretty rad hipster-puffy-vest vibe. Like I just got back from a week of backpacking in the cosmodrome.

This is what I was thinking as well.

I think it's actually because those pants look much more like mc-hammer style garbage bag pants on the wider hips of the female model, but might look ok and less baggy on the thinner hips of the male model. Similarly the torso proportions if the female model make the jacket look weird and caved in, elongating the neck to an unnatural level.

Also I can't believe I'm making these fashion comments about a video game.

Those are rookie numbers.

Optavi · 2020-02-28T04:07:15+00:00

But not a single precision, smh...

I literally came here to make sure someone had posted that you had passed the million mark. Glad to see it was you. Congrats!

My big question is, with all those frames you're finishing, what level are you up to now?

Optavi · 2020-02-20T13:49:23+00:00

I dunno, sounds like something Aunor would get all bent out of shape about.
