3 things destiny nailed. 4 if you want to include the lore that isn't in the damn game.

fortunately, these are the most important things for developing the feeling of a game. everything else the game under-delivered on simply requires a smarter direction and less business suits butting in.

This is pretty accurate.

I'd add in sound design full-stop, unless you mean for that to be included in all the shootbang. I love how recognizable the sound of many exotic weapons is, the speeder cruising and boost noises, the unmistakable wail of a minotaur, the cues for oracles, etc.

Probably a re-gift. I was also confused yesterday when my mom got me a package of four fancy mustards.

Nah, they own and use one.

Sorry about the mustard.

I'll never understand the love people have for that movie. Watched it twice, unimpressed twice. It's just pretty average.

it bored me tbh. was funny but forgettable.

woops meant to include that with music. top notch as well.

This is still my favorite concept art. I probably wouldn't leave the area if this was in the game. Shit looks so cool.

Destiny 2 needs more wide open areas like this. Hope they trash cross-gen and do better,

That's exactly how I would put it. Had some funny parts, and Pratt was great, but if they never made a sequel, I wouldn't care a bit.

Interstellar is obviously movie of the year, btw.

I really hope Destiny 2 has so many unique spots that most people do not feel compelled to just hop on their sparrows and fly to the missions.

Love me some Hawkmoon

Never noticed the detail on this

I got a 2 on my test for AP Physics, a class I took for complicated reasons which involved getting an A with very little effort (no sexual favors were involved however).

On the exam, for one of the word problems I had no idea where to even begin with the premise of an answer, so I just wrote a 300-word short story which I believe I recall being about Casper the ghost attending a carnival.

Extremely proud of that 2. Inexplicable.

First year my school offered AP physics. 2 people took the AP test. I was the only one who passed. Got a 3. Never had to do science or math in college.

Also yeah destiny art and sound and gunplay are top notch

^ that GDC talk with tons of concept art. A shame they ditched some of their earlier ideas for the tower hanger being more central to the game.

Destiny 2 needs more wide open areas like this. Hope they trash cross-gen and do better,

Constraints for the old consoles aside, an area like that could be done in a substantial DLC that adds a new planet or zone. The engine is seriously solid (the fact that they won't let it even flirt with >30fps helps of course -_-). I don't want to consign anything to Destiny 2 until like Q4 2015.

 

[Namikaze1]

Stuff like this should had made it into the final game, Bungie!

 

[Darryl M R]

Guys.

 

[Namikaze1]

Guys.

Guerrilla Games second pic and the first is most likely from Witcher series

Edit: more i look at the first pic, the more I'm convince it's not from the Witcher series.

Looks like the mercury map. Burning Shrine maybe

 

[todd360]

I just watched the interview nami, like you said to do. The first part was terrible, but it gradually got better and I ended up having some good laughs.

Yup! I can only hope Bungie and other developers can follow their concept art.

It picks up once they're in NK. I watched it again today and I picked up on the fact that I missed all the foreshadowing in the beginning of the film.

Burning shrine is an amazing map and I'm sad that it's a rare occurrence for me

That's the Gate Lord we were supposed to fight!

Beautiful concept art all around.

How are the servers doing? This whole family Christmas thing is keeping me away from priorities.

Now that looks like about the size Dinklebot was talking about.

I wonder if they will ever have the time to fully realize what they want with this game. Seems like they're on a tight schedule to pump out DLC and sequals.

Nice and quiet in here

 

[Darryl M R]

I don't know, hunter's like "fuck this shit I'm outtie!" while the warlock is like "I'm coming bro!"

Looks like the Hunter is drawing fire from the trash mobs so the Warlock doesn't get their face pounded by bullets since it is in the Warlock's nature to rush into battle, die, and revive; but I doubt his cooldown is ready since he probably have done this 6 times already in this 1 strike.

The Hunter is being smart and going to control the battlefield.

Destiny should win "most exploits of the year in a multiplayer game". lol

 

[E92 M3]

That metal knife will sure make a big difference

Now that looks like about the size Dinklebot was talking about.

Exactly - 3 stories high. I wish we could fight that.

Oooh, didn't know you can use 'tools' to find out stats...

Nami, if this were Rumble, you would get the 'sum of all tears' medal

I don't know. It's nice and serene in here. Earlier was a different story

If you guys like Destiny art, check out stuff from Bungie's Dorje Bellbrook.

Also, Former Bungie concept artist Isaac Hannaford:

Guys.

Looks like Minas Tirith.

You have good thinky thoughts on occasion.

 

[Twilight Gap]

this thread has gone in an interesting direction.

 

[spyder_ur]

Finally got some time to play after a full 3 days with family and friends. I'm guessing noone is having any luck at all on PS4?

Really wish I hadn't sold my PS3 disc. That PS3 digital to PS4 deal doesn't go the other way, right? I have Destiny PS4 digitally. Was really looking forward to playing some tonight and tomorrow.

Oh well - I guess I could finally get started on something else. Unity (patch seems to be downloading but an hour or so left), Mordor, Transistor, Second Son (pretty lukewarm on it after an hour or so)? Or maybe some Binding of Isaac although I have no idea what is going on in that game.

You are valuable to me.

For one thing I'm sure is that whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.
