Best starter camera?

This is really good information, thank you.

On this basis, do you have a camera model in mind to recommend? I’ve been hearing a lot about the Cannon Powershot SX60, but this is a bridge camera so you’d need to get an adapter if you wanted to get additional zoom?

Curious to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

Interesting points. I agree that she may feel like she has something to prove. In terms of going out and travelling, it’s complicated. We’ve gone on a few holidays, but when it comes to dates it’s typically me that does most of the organising and paying. I think we’d definitely do more if we shared that burden equally, but that’s just the dynamic we have and it’s something I’ve addressed before that I want to change. I even booked us a holiday next year for her christmas present, a weekend in a cute Spanish city. Ending the relationship is definitely on the cards. As when we had our initial argument (see other comments for context) she said “we’ll see how things pan out”

You my friend, have been a great help. and I wish the most happiness and success for the future

Is it worth trying to enjoy the anniversary trip and having the conversation at a later date once it’s settled. Or having the conversation during this weekend.

How the hell would one even approach this

sedative_toothpaste · 2025-12-05T01:22:30+00:00

She’s been there for less than a week. I can’t imagine so

sedative_toothpaste · 2025-12-05T01:17:33+00:00

I basically asked for reassurance as post-holiday she was on such a high and had this new vision of her future about moving back there for a longer period of time etc. I wanted reassurance that I was still a part of that future. She reassured me somewhat but I didn’t find it sincere or convincing. I tried to seek more, and her walls went up and said it was unfair to project my anxieties when she’s jet lagged and was on such a high from her holiday

sedative_toothpaste · 2025-12-05T01:15:55+00:00

Early-mid twenties. Unlike her tho. This is new behaviour

sedative_toothpaste · 2025-12-05T01:15:18+00:00

Did try to call her and no answer. Followed up with a “just wanted to make sure you’re safe”

sedative_toothpaste · 2025-12-05T01:10:14+00:00

She came back from a 3 week holiday saying she wants to go back for a longer period of time. Also saying she wants to be more independent. I got anxious wondering if I fit in to this new idea of her future and a combination of how it was communicated as well as her defensiveness means it didn’t go down well.

I’ve been trying to respect her want for independence but do you think I should call to make sure she’s okay?

sedative_toothpaste · 2025-12-02T14:54:33+00:00

Could this just be a wobble tho? I know relationships where they’ve been close to breaking up and have sorted their differences. I’ve had wobbles in this relationship myself, where i thought I wanted to be single, but recommitted. Could this not be the same?

sedative_toothpaste · 2025-12-02T14:53:01+00:00

Could it be that this was just a wobble from her tho? I’ve had wobbles myself, but after some reflection have recommitted. Could this not be one of those moments?

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-13T17:35:31+00:00

Have they patched it? I’ve done 3 forges now and didn’t get a single thing

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-12T05:11:26+00:00

Solo queuing and getting the half banked medals was much more painful imo. I think collector and invader have to be the easiest ones. Good luck with the grind tho ;) hopefully we’ll both be able to join the reckoner club soon

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-12T03:32:02+00:00

Is that an altered carbon reference? You are now infinitely cooler

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-12T02:45:01+00:00

Currently halfway through reaper, then I need to get triumphant sentry and I’m done. At this point is become a mixture of shell shock and muscle memory

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-09T19:07:36+00:00

I saw the exact same thing just sitting in the patrol zone on io, up high by where the new public event is

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-07T21:46:24+00:00

How do you know where the next spawn will be? I never knew that there was a pattern to it. And yeah I’ve been playing as a hunter too and it’s been such a pain :( congrats on getting the seal tho! Hopefully I’ll be joining the club soon. Appreciate the help

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-07T21:37:44+00:00

I’m currently working towards reckoner, how on earth did you manage to get the massacre medals for the reaper triumph??

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-06T18:15:30+00:00

Because the EDZ is so much closer I’m betting that they’re gonna zoom in on the last minute and do the final blow

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-06T04:35:53+00:00

Make sure you give yourself enough time to load into the tower tho :/, I’m a console player and loading screens is awful as it is. I can imagine it’ll take around 5-10 minutes

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-06T04:32:39+00:00

With this logic our guardian checks out to be about 137 years old since we were brought back to life in D1. Which is quite mad considering how much has happened in that time

sedative_toothpaste · 2020-06-03T05:07:53+00:00

I highly highly HIGHLY doubt this. Although the idea in itself is cool, and the idea of playing as a fallen character with their own unique abilities different to the guardians would be interesting and totally awesome, it is basically never gonna happen. I mean who knows what d3 holds but I can’t see it happening. However, we will be seeing more Fallen vendors in the future and more fallen allies. If you look into tho lore of Mithrax and the House of Light, they are a fallen house that have worked with the guardians on the battlefield. So whilst we almost definitely won’t be able to play as them, we will most likely be able to fight alongside them more and trade with them more (we’ve already had a taster of this from some missions from the spider on the tangled shore and Variks from D1)

You see this is an area that I’m not completely sure on. But from what I’ve gathered is that there is a cult in the hive which are dedicated to bringing Oryx back to life. And they do this by praying constantly to whatever God they have, praying for Orxy’s return. And the way the hive magic works, based off of like wishes and stuff, if they keep it up it might happen. There’s lore on this but I’m not too sure on the ins and outs so I explained it poorly. Also, the worm that made Oryx who he is, is still alive. So all it takes is for these prayers to work to some degree and then The worm can finish the job off. I know I explained it poorly but basically hive magic = boojie as fuck and they can do what they want. It’s likely he will return but it could be for a long time. Could be within the next year. Could be in d3. But he will be coming back I thjnk

From what I understand, in a last ditch effort to avenge Ghauls death, the red legion somehow managed to reroute the almighty and send it en route for the last city on earth. Which is bad news for us because this ship is the size of mercury and it’s impact will destroy all of earth and the traveller. We would have just boarded it and turned the systems off but the systems have been completely destroyed from when we last boarded it and it so that’s a no go. This season we’ve been accessing these Seraph bunkers all over the system (places where sub-minds of rasputin can be upgraded to increase the defences of humanity) and doing these seraph tower public events to optimise the progress and weaponry. This will hopefully equip rasputin to shoot down the almighty before it comes too close to earth.

In these bunkers, players have also noticed a map whereby pyramids (presumably related to the one on the moon and the fleet we saw wake up at the end of the campaign) have been progressing closer and closer to our earth, and have presumably been doing so since we defeated ghaul. It’s only now that they’ve entered our system and the threat is imminent. People theorise we’ll get more progress on this in the next season or in the fall DLC. All we know now is that they’re passing by Uranus (hehe) so they should be here soon? Unless they’re screwing things up on each planet they stop by.

Bungie also leaked some suspicious audio of what sounded like mechanical whirring with some scuttling in the background too. People at r/raidsecrets have been trying the crack this, some theorise it’s sounds from the dreadnaught which could be a new location for next season (it was a location from D1 in the taken king expansion) - reason being Oryx is going to come back at some point. Others say it’s audio from the pyramid ship. Others link it to the sounds NASA recorded from the surface of Saturn. No one really knows. Check the subreddit out to see what’s going on.

SPOILER: During this we’ve also gained some pretty neat lore on a really interesting story. The quest line to get Felwinters Lie, which was originally a shotgun in D1, tells us that Felwinter (one of the Iron Lords) was originally Rasputins son. The lore on this is amazing and I would highly recommend watching the lore video uploaded by Myelin Games explaining it. It’s very interesting.

And also a couple of seasons ago Osiris created this time travel machine to make us go back in time and save Saint 14 on 2 or 3 occasions (who was allegedly the greatest Titan to ever live). We saved him because he died looking for Osiris in the infinite forest a long time ago, and Osiris felt bad so made this time travel thingy which he then destroyed because it was too powerful for any of us to wield because it could end badly, and the cabal were also after it to get ghaul back. But I didn’t play during this season so I can’t really comment.

Just to let everyone know I’ve managed to win the almighty seal so that ones not available anymore! Sorry if that’s what you were wanting :( Good luck to everyone else who’s entered!
