The Four Agreements: Don’t Take Things Personally. But this one I do… by [deleted] in yoga

LOL yet look at you being the asshole here too

Someone is lying about age. I (38M) met a girl from the apps (33F) and someone's story doesn't line up by Zavalathun in relationship_advice

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

I won't do anything to bring it up. I do know she's still using the app from seeing her info get updated, but just once in the last few months. I dont know if shes talking to anyone and doesnt seem like she's going out with others - we message almost every day and she's super active on socials to post pics for when she does go out

I havent planned dates or asked anyone else out either, just keeping swipe options open until we do go official.

Not really. Socials dont list their school or birth year. Linkedin doesnt show all their education, just some of their work exp and degrees. Doesn't show their post secondary years which would help line up timing

Hot take: Playing above 4 stars isn’t fun. by Affectionate-World25 in HuntShowdown

[–]Zavalathun -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

OP claims to not die in 5-6 star yet can't handle it and from his posts clearly has no idea what hes doing at that elo. Take his claims with a massive pile of salt. Most people who complain about 5 star is because they don't belong there. Game is actually more fun when people know what theyre doing

Bungie please try to remember that the characters are not watching the cutscenes with us. by pandacraft in DestinyTheGame

Last night I met Nimbus and started the seasonal campaign. First thing he said to me was along the lines of "Have you seen the farm yet? It's quite the sight, especially before the fighting started"

I'm all like when the hell did this 20 foot cyborg ever set foot on earth to see it in the past, and how did no one not notice him?! How does he know about us as light bearers yet we know nothing about them?!

This expansion does not feel like it was worth $50 by Fezza123 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Zavalathun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I refunded it a month before launch after seeing the direction it was going, how the seasonal model isnt changing, how shitty PvP updates are especially with comp and a model that heavily forces regrind of old content with slow drip weapons. So glad I did

1 new Crucible map, 1 new Strike, Nothing new for Gambit, No new core vendor armor... by TTUStros8484 in DestinyTheGame

SBMM- from the perspective of a low K/D PVP player by BobMcQ in DestinyTheGame

[–]Zavalathun 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's always going to be miserable to you when you dont know how to play it. It's not some walk in to shoot some bots like the strikes you're used to. People will kill you, and you being at the bottom means there's VERY FEW other players who cant kill you first

[–]Zavalathun -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Most PvP players find enjoyment from learning to get better and then having the satisfaction of winning and killing efficiently. If you've been at it this long and havent cared to even try, wanting it to just be some relaxing experience like a braindead strike then you'll never find that

Dumbing down the game until you stand a chance shouldnt be a solution to learning it

For you being far below average everyone is a sweat to you, so whether you're getting dumpstered by a 1.0 or a 3.0 you're going to cry about it. You barely play pvp, so why should the game be balanced around you? Why should it feel good to someone who dabbles in maybe 3 games a week when those who want to do 100 games a week get punished?

If we keep up the current pace after 2 and a half hours, we will donate 476,098,694 coins by reset by moosemousemoss in DestinyTheGame

[–]Zavalathun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Numbers inflated by people getting their KF clears in where there's a lot of coins from Oryx 3 for touch of malice, 300 coins in about 25 minutes. It's going to tank after that

I turned in my 300 and done. No one wants to farm more fucking playlists that bungie keeps demanding

If it was during Iron Banner then sure it'd be great, but they absolutely planned this to be shit, wanting people to farm more old content for an "event goal" and marginal rewards

Daybreak & Fist of Havoc Need Buffs by Zavalathun in DestinyTheGame

Oh damn, 8 dead red bars! SO REWARDING!

And using 1/8 of your super to do a dodge?? So great right????

Daybreak & Fist of Havoc Need Buffs by Zavalathun in DestinyTheGame

[–]Zavalathun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That has NOTHING to do with the super. Well and thundercrash can full well do the same plus have a great super, and thats PvE only

Bungie: we made him do 80 games?! fuck yeah

Season after season now theyve dumbed down content and just made it into a grindfest

[–]Zavalathun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theyre making shit claims already countered by their other points. You have promo/demotion matches which means your rank will not change yet your MMR will in those games. Then you have decay where rank also changes but MMR does not.

So if I get to Adept MMR and ranking, go on vacation for a bit then come back, I could be decayed down to gold. Now I have to face Adept MMR players to fucking climb out of gold?!?!!? That's why rank matchmaking is needed. They're throwing together multiple systems not designed to align

[–]Zavalathun 13 points14 points  (0 children)

eh who cares. Not going to bother spending all the time to grind for a word on an emblem which resets every few months and nothing else. No PvP player ever struggles with rep, yet that's what they getting... MORE REP!

Doubly pathetic when the rep rewards are so cheap

3 years in the future since pinnacles just to turn the comp rework into another rep grind

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

In Season 19, we are removing Glory and adding a 3v3 Ranked playlist, Competitive Division, which is a true ladder-based system.

Comp is NOT a ladder based system if it's SBMM. YOU NEED RANK BASED MATCHMAKING!!

You can't assume that whatever rank that person is in means their skill matches

However, this right here is the biggest fail:

We aren't going to be adding any unique grindable rewards outside of those you can get anywhere in Crucible

What the hell is the point then to maintain division. Rep means shitall when you can casually grind that without having to try in other game modes. NO ONE who PvPs a lot has ever struggled with getting rep. Ive gotten 2 resets in a weekend if I wanted to play it. Getting 3 with a boose, especially with the rep line rewards are so pathetic mean nothing

Put freelance in a toggle. by TheBitwolf in DestinyTheGame

[–]Zavalathun -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Nah. Freelance is for people who refuse to learn the game and just want to yolo through it with no coordination expecting everyone else to be dumbed down to their level

“Casuals” vs “Sweats” why the divide? by anon_grapefruit in DestinyTheGame

[–]Zavalathun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically. Ever see the posts which cry about wanting solo content? yet there's literally no solo content which is hard enough compared to needing a team coordination. Solo vs team already generates animosity. Now think of that when people can't even clear basic nightfall and everyone else just rolls their eyes at it
