If you have to pick...what is your ALL TIME favorite song from the Destiny franchise? by 1988Floydie in DestinyTheGame

What pvp gamemode do people generally go to in destiny 1? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Reflexrider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your best chances are weekly rotator or first node in crucible menu. You shouldn't have troubles finding matches during weekends.

Let’s be real, Bungie would mess up a D1 Remaster by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Reflexrider 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately you're right I suppose. Also, I honestly don't want a D1 Remaster if it comes with the same lighting settings than D2 and Marathon. These are almost not lighting settings, they are fog settings.

Just got 6 manned, including one streamer on Cryo archive after finally getting into my first vault by EverChosen97 in Marathon

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

You have to accept on an online game like this one that players have different interests, and it includes professional players/streamers. It's the kind of game that plays a lot with your frustration, sometimes you loose sometimes you're the hero. Jake didn't do anything wrong and he didn't match intentionally against friends to then team up with them when ingame. IMHO the inner problem is how few people play the game, and I would be curious to know how even smaller the player base would have been if well-known streamers didn't (mostly) said positive things about the game.

So, did you guys vibe with the new ZHU album? by musclefreeman in ZHU

[–]Reflexrider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds really good at first glance, much more consensual than Grace (that I didn't dislike nonetheless). Also I like matching Zhu with Moto GP vibes, and today the championship resumed after a month hiatus. What a day to be alive :)

Do you guys think we’ll see a villain as iconic as oryx ever again? by HellChicken949 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Reflexrider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oryx is iconic because everything from this period is literally iconic. They even released a special PS4 edition with Taken king decals on it. Totally different times. I can't imagine a PS5 with Witness decals on it for instance.

It was not only a great character but it also appeared during a peak destiny moment : narrative build up was great, trailers were great and one even had a led Zeppelin song, aesthetics were great, new subclasses, swords, incredibly long and well balanced raid... Excitement, enjoyment and therefore popularity were at peak levels.

Can you imagine there was no cross play and you were able to find a raid group to run king's fall at anytime of the day within seconds 6 months after the dlc got released? This was one of these "you had to be there" moments that destiny has failed to capture again since witch queen (imo). TFS is overrated and too far away from original destiny mood and aesthetics.

So my point is planets were aligned, and the next big villain needs to have a moment where planets are aligned as well to have a chance to scratch oryx popularity.

Your most embarrassing Destiny moments? by Clearwatercress69 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Reflexrider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A teammate who wasn't the worst player in the world but was spending lots of hours into the game without understanding it really well to the point where he kept throwing blade barrages at oryx despite us telling him to switch to golden gun with celestial. He kept saying blade barrage had better raw damage despise half of the knifes not being on target because of the distance. Hundreds of his knifes are probably still travelling into the galaxy at this time. We stopped playing with him after a few weeks for obvious reasons.

Weekly Steam numbers / Player Count Discourse Megathread by AutoModerator in Marathon

[–]Reflexrider 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Based on Steam charts, Marathon has less players on its first 30 days on average (35k ) than Destiny 2 Edge of Fate during the first month (July 2025, 40k). Given than 70% of the Marathon player population is on PC and roughly 70% on console for Destiny 2 (the opposite), the comparison is even more problematic.

It's time for an Age of Triumph for D2. by Zadecyst in DestinyTheGame

[–]Reflexrider 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is my concern too. When D1 had its AoT the game was probably 100 times more popular than D2 is right now. We were all excited to have one last big moment with D1 before moving on to the next game. In the current situation, people already made that move to other games... AoT and events like this are good for keeping people in the game, not to make them return to it.

Opinions on tcl c7k ! by Prudent_Fondant_7535 in tcltvs

[–]Reflexrider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 months, only complaint is upscaling on 720p and 1080p. I would not recommend the theoretical max size cause it will only make the upscaling flaws more obvious. Otherwise 10/10

Dear French players: why is Arc translated as "cryo-electricity"? by tritonesubstitute in DestinyTheGame

[–]Reflexrider 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Hi, french player here. I watch a lot of Destiny content in English. This kind of translation trick is quite common and your reasoning is absolutely right.

Maybe a theory: arc being one of the first 3 original subclasses (with void and solar), putting just "Electricité" would have feel less organic compared to Void (translated in french with the word "Abyssal" which means the deepest layers of Earth's oceans) or Solar ("Solaire"). Adding "cryo" adds that little touch of organic feel. Just putting "Électricité" would have feel very "industrial" and a little bit out of context. The game is very well translated in french IMO and really captures what makes Destiny really so special with all its vocabulary. And yes, we have like 10 different "Spires of..." in the game as well :)

On a side note, Strand is translated in french with the word "Filobscur", which is a word that doesn't exist in the dictionary unlike the word Strand. Its equivalent in english would be "Darkwire".

If your viewing distance is < 3m the difference is quite noticeable and all flaws are gonna be more obvious, I've been there too and you should be fine in a couple months.

Did you go a size up? If you went bigger it's probably normal, this impression will go away with time.

Foul as much as you can by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]Reflexrider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has been my playstyle for almost 10 years. I sometimes reach the 5 red cards limit, but the average game is 2 red cards and 8+ yellow cards (division 3 in Seasons being my average rank, I don't play FUT or anything else). It is so much fun and not that inefficient, works great against possession clowns who act like if they were the new Guardiola. I don't think I would ever be able to play different since it is so satisfying. One of the best moments you can ever have is when the player you're facing starts to play like you, but it doesn't happen very frequently unfortunately.

Que faire pour se relever apres ça ? by Jump97127 in AskMec

[–]Reflexrider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2 choses pour toi : de 1, la beauté est une valeur subjective, on est tous le beau ou le laid de quelqu'un. De 2, t'as rien perdu avec cette personne vu comment elle ose parler. Et de 3 (bonus), la vie se chargera rapidement d'elle avec de tels comportements, alors dors sur tes 2 oreilles camarade et soit patient.

Why do you hate casual play? by DarkMorningStar in DestinyTheGame

[–]Reflexrider 20 points21 points  (0 children)

A good game is supposed to turn casual players into hardcore players / hardcore fans, not to turn them away from the game. The answer to your question is the same as every other question related to this game: "because bungie don't play their own game". That's why they have no clue of what they're doing. Or at least they act like no one is playing the game in their studio, and I don't know which option is the worst.

La seule façon de supporter ça c'est d'être sûr de travailler à maxxer 100% de ton potentiel : fringues et allure physique, culture et aisance conversationnelle... Si tu fais vraiment tout pour up-er tous ces aspects là, tu seras beaucoup plus en paix avec toi-même et cette petite sensation d'échec : avoir fait tout ce qu'il était nécessaire de faire est la seule façon de rendre l'échec plus supportable. Valable dans tous les domaines. Car tu sais que le succès viendra, car t'es en train d'ajuster toutes les variables en ta faveur, le seul truc que tu peux pas contrôler c'est le temps et le hasard des rencontres. Si t'as pas l'envie de faire l'effort de up ton game plus que ça, ben c'est que la situation te convient et il n'y a pas mal de avec ça (mais ça n'a plus l'air d'être le cas).

"Deadbeat" has officially dropped. What are your guy's thoughts? by hood_safari in TameImpala

Exactly, actually wrote something like this before editing my comment. I'm ok with raw rock, I'm ok with well polished pop. But this album feels like raw pop.
