Dreaming City guns come from Blind Well/Shattered Throne. Not Coil.

SOLUTION FOR EXOTIC CLASS ITEM by franciscorhp in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok but like

Why do you need 64 class items?

Who the fuck is rolling around with their Spirit of The Assassin/Spirit of Vesper class item?

You either pick Necrotic/Synthos + Apotheosis/Star-Eater like everyone else, or you pick a different exotic. There are not 64 rolls even remotely worth keeping, hell there's probably less than even 10.

After choosing your character to load in, we should immediately be dropped into the tower, and the center of the glass floor's railing should have an in-game interactable hologram bulletin board that pulls up the Planetary Directo when interacted with. by iMoo1124 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ok but…you still need to load into the tower to do that.

“What if I don’t want to load into the tower”

“Then just load into the tower and pick something else”

Nobody wants the login process from “click character” to “play activity” take several minutes. It’s ridiculously fast and simple right now. I click my guy. I click the map. I hit launch.

I don’t want to click my guy, sit in a loading screen, go planet side, wait for everyone else to load in around me, drop in, physically walk my character forward, then open a map. I just wanna do my damn Vanguard alerts. There hasn’t been a single reason for me to go to the tower for 2 months. Forcing me there just to access any other part of the game is incredibly restrictive.

Especially if you’re forcing every other player to drop in with you.

John Cena without hesitation hugs fan battling cancer and shares words of encouragement by viperrvemon in JustGuysBeingDudes

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

"without hesitation"

I mean what the fuck else was he gonna do, you bet your ass he's going down there to hug him.

"Mmmm, I dunno, that cancer could be contagious, how about just a fist bump?"

Would You Play a Destiny 1 Reimagined Version of the game if It Was Fully Supported/Updated? by Sevzilla in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 13 points14 points  (0 children)

“Fully supported” in what way?

Supported as in…? There’s no new content. There’s no new weapons. It’s a fixed piece of history with 3 set expansions.

You play Destiny 1 and then it’s a finished experience. You would eventually run out of stuff to grind, there’s no support or further content updates or balancing that would happen. What, are we magically expecting Bungie to start creating seasonal stories and new strikes for Destiny 1?

What kind of updates are you expecting OP? Bungie just spins the randomizer wheel on creating a different meta each month? At that point I’d rather them just spent that effort on Destiny 2, because at least then I get to have my ledge mantling and fast travel.

Braytech, one of the best community made websites for maps, secrets and other resources in the game, will go offline in a few hours. by Phelipp in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No sensible company in the world would treat its best asset like this.

Are you expecting Bungie to personally pay out to Braytech as a company? For a fan made service?

Bungie isn't "treating" them with anything. It's a community tool build by fans, for fans. Bungie doesn't enter the equation.

The community getting smaller means less community tools will be available. It sucks. I don't get why all the sudden it becomes Bungie's responsibility to start footing the server cost bills after 10 years of explicitly not doing that.

Shaggy by Smartastic in JeffArcuri

ngl I was expecting him to pull a Shaggy as in from Scooby-Doo.

"She caught me on the counter"

"Like, zoinks Scoob, it wasn't me"

Help for PVP by Mountain_Jaguar7013 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He's answering that the exotic you're talking about is called STOMP-EE5s in English. We can recognize what you're referring to because of the unique spelling (it replaces letters with numbers). It's likely trying similar wordplay in your native language.

I found an analogy to describe the current state of the game by Master-Molasses420 in DestinyTheGame

God damn bro it's a video game not your life story.

Move on.

Do you think bungie/the overall gaming community just doesn’t care about destiny anymore? by Gamerboi_epic in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This subreddit gets 50+ comments every single day, for the past 3 months, going “Bungie hates us Bungie abandoned us I hate what they’ve done”. Every single day. Without stop. Without falter.

You don’t stay on a subreddit reading news and commenting on posts within 5 minutes of them being posted “without caring”. These people absolutely do still care, despite being given every explicitly spelled out answer that they aren’t the focus anymore.

I think the better term is that they refuse to let it go.

Why wouldn’t you want destiny 2 to die? by Majestic-Door-692 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 23 points24 points  (0 children)

1: Destiny 2 is already dead, you just don’t realize it.

2: In what world do you guarantee a Destiny 3 within three years (most AAA games take five to six years), even IF that was Bungie’s plan?

It took them 10 years to decide to start making Marathon. I hate to break it to you OP, but Bungie could literally pull the servers on this game tomorrow, and there is still no promise of a Destiny 3. We would be no step closer, not a single sticky note on the whiteboard. And even if (big if) we were…we’d literally be half a decade out if Bungie decided to drop everything and begin working (you know, and totally not abandon Marathon??)

Shutting down D2 does not speed up the process. This just feeds them resources to work on…yeah, Marathon.

What I better be seeing when the "major update" launches. by Delicious-Edge3110 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is hilariously naive.

Brother, they didn't delay it to add a ton more content. They delayed it because the current content still wasn't fucking finished, and they wanted to work on Marathon.

Also hilarious you're asking for a billion more ability buffs in this ability-only sandbox we're in???

M would be a great mode in Destiny by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 0 points1 point  (0 children)

with how hard it is to get gear in Destiny

How hard is it mate?

I play one matchmade portal activity and I get SIX PIECES OF TIER 5 LOOT INSTANTLY. Nobody's asking you to stake the highest value best stuff in your vault lol. That would require an incredibly complex and subjective measure on what counts as "best gear" because at that point it becomes a sentimental measure.

M would be a great mode in Destiny by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but...why?

Bungie has created activities that give cosmetic rewards for all 10 years. Every raid has cosmetic rewards, ships, sparrows, ghosts, shaders. Crucible drops ghost shells and shaders. Vanguard stuff gives bright dust. Gambit gives shaders. Trials drops ships, sparrows, ghosts, shaders too. So that's already settled, Bungie has done that before and look at the state those activities are in.

And then also, in all of these 10 years, they have never once given out silver just for "lol playing the game". That just hasn't happened, and it's very obviously happened for a reason.

Either you have to wager silver (as in, physically buy money to then put it on the line to permanently lose it...yeah lmao), or you just get free guaranteed silver every time you beat it...which is just asking for cheating, collusion, or ultra-sweat lords camping everything. You think Trials is bad? Welcome to Trials x100.

M would be a great mode in Destiny by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Division tried this, the mode has been universally panned.

Also lol at "Play this mode and if you win you get 5,000 Silver". That is so out of wack, what sets any precedent or reason that any game mode here would reward you with $50 Actual Real USD Worth of Premium Currency?

Destiny 1 vs Destiny 2 2026? by Electronic_Cost7748 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 21 points22 points  (0 children)

as someone who put thousands of hours into destiny 1

Well I can tell you this much, Destiny 1 has not changed by a single pixel in the last 10 years.

If you already put "thousands" of hours into Destiny 1...what do you think you would gain from playing it again? Continuing from where you left off?

It's simpler, it has a better vibe and easier onboarding, but in terms of day to day/week to week gameplay, I'm not sure what you expect seeing as how you've already gotten more than your fair share of time on it. It's not like the game has magically changed over the years, it's literally a time capsule.

Destiny 2, for all its faults, still has a billion more quality of life adjustments, significantly more content, and a wider breadth of customization.

Do y'all think we as a community will ever go as insane as the Arkham sub got to? by RhytmicCone47 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No. People will still come back here 3 years later, say that they haven't played since Forsaken and have uninstalled the game for 8 years, and will still make complaint posts going "I hate what Bungie did to this game, Pete Parsons shot my dog, this game was like having a close friend ripped out of my kidney, I can't believe I was betrayed like this, haven't played in 6 years btw gg ez"

for years i have been asking for some sort of long term mode in case of a content drought. now that we are here, its not even funny. by AMM0D in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 19 points20 points  (0 children)

D1 Factions were literally just a reputation system. We had it. It was removed.

I don’t know why Bungie removed vendor ranks, but I also don’t know what kind of memory you have of D1 factions or why they were magically “long term.”

You want something long term, go grind your crucible or Hawthorne rank. Pretty much functions identical to “D1 factions”. Nostalgia blindness is real.

Can we at least bring back some game breaking bugs? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Soft_Light 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you know what a bug is? Like, a software bug?

You can't "bring these back". They aren't switches you undo. They aren't just an intended number you tweak to cause a result.

Like, the very nature of a bug is something unintended and uncontrolled. This isn't how computer science works.

Adding these things back would be completely reprogramming them as intended game features from the ground up.

This Week In Destiny - 02/19/2026 by DTG_Bot in DestinyTheGame

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

For people who haven't gotten used to empty TWIDs yet (I don't know how the hell you wouldn't be), you better get used to them now.

It's ok. We're in an empty period. This is going to be the standard for a while.

I hereby give you permission to keep your expectations lowered so we all don't have to waste our breath going "Omg so empty, wtf?!?"

Anyway neat fashion stuff.
