Hi folks, what sorts of things have you been doing on destiny lately? What are you finding fun?

I thought the new campaign was good, but I’m increasingly finding it difficult to put time into Destiny post campaign. The gunplay is still great but … the game has felt repetitive and little frustrations like ambiguity about how you get the new exotic class items just really are getting on my nerves. I spent probably 4 hours today redoing the same overthrow and feeling to get the wizards to spawn.

I don’t mean for this to be a negative post, but yeah; what do you enjoy about Destiny the most in 2024? Anyone here having similar feelings about the game?

    I think DOOM Eternal is my favorite in terms of sound design. I wish they’d make a co-op campaign DOOM game. I’m still a bit peeved that Bungie used what has to be a hedge trimmer for the chainsaw sword… That could’ve been a seriously mean sounding weapon, and I do like it, it just sounds … less terrifying than it should lol.

    I’m with you on avoiding PvP these days. I mentioned in another comment I’m colorblind… and all the effects and stuff, I just can’t ever tell what’s going on and whether or not something is friendly or unfriendly. The amount of times I’ve literally walked into an enemy nova bomb or witherhoard AoE is … too high to count.

    Props for attempting to solo dungeons, those are quite difficult… IIRC, I’ve come close to soloing spire of the watcher but the giant danger chicken at the end has prevailed. I can’t say I’m particularly excited to try and get that far solo again 😅

      Yes the lament could sound beefier. But my brother and I constantly say “ooh what’s that your using” when hearing the gun sound effects. I admit I haven’t played Doom Eternal though. Do Shattered Throne dungeon! I’ve soloed that and Pit of Heresy but Shattered Throne was way easier. Esoterick vids for help of course. The other thing I do when feeling burned out is looking at old triumphs and trying to finish them like X public events on the EDZ, time trials on the moon or Dreaming City. Finding all the cats, eggs, and bones on Dreaming City was cool because you explore places you otherwise have no reason to go. Anyway though I’m not playing much these days it’s still the game I return to over and over.
