On Destiny 2’s Glaives

May 18, 2022May 9, 2022 Medic 0 Comments destiny 2, glaive, ramble

Glaives are odd objects. In reality, a glaive is a long polearm weapon, with a 50cm-ish blade on one end and a whole lot of long stick. But at the same time, the name Glaive is also sometimes given to sharp, throwable discs that come back, a bit like a boomerang. While Warframe uses the term “Glaive” to be a throwable, bladed, circular weapon, Destiny 2 has gone with the more European option, which is a blade on a big stick. And also putting some sort of gun on it too. Destiny 2’s Glaives look cool. The Glaive weapon type… [Continue Reading]

Has Anyone Spoken to the Big White Ball lately?

May 12, 2022May 4, 2022 Medic 0 Comments big balls, destiny 2, not quite lore, traveller

For my birthday, I was given Destiny 2’s new expansion, Witch Queen, as a present. The brand new campaign was fun and interesting, and it is something I’d kinda recommend playing. There was a lot going on in the Witch Queen campaign, as well as a lot of new revelations. After all, a long-standing enemy, having been working in the shadows for all these years, suddenly pops up on a planet that vanished. We get the return of Mars and the throne world that Savathun built for herself, as well as a bunch of weird new light users. The Lucent… [Continue Reading]

An Idiot Plays Vow of the Disciple

May 5, 2022April 27, 2022 Medic 0 Comments destiny, destiny 2, raid, witch queen

When it comes to video games, I judge myself quite harshly. I’m not particularly good at them, and I improve very slowly. However, in Destiny 2, somehow my ineptitude goes up to 11 and I an barely hanging on. Basically, I am really, amazingly bad at Destiny 2. And, somehow, I found myself doing the newest raid, Vow of the Disciple. The main encounters were perfectly fine. Starting with essentially a payload mission, we made our way inside one of the massive dark pyramids. This one belonged to Rhulk, the first disciple of the Witness. He left the door open… [Continue Reading]

Destiny 2’s Shotguns Make Me Sad

April 14, 2022April 10, 2022 Medic 0 Comments destiny, destiny 2, pve, shotgun

I don’t know why, but shotgun weapons in many video games are all over the damn place. There are a ton of tropes surrounding video game shotguns, and most of them are pretty bad. This annoys me because I want to like shotguns, but I simply can’t. And Destiny 2’s shotguns basically fill a ton of tropes. Before I even start though, I don’t play much PvP in Destiny 2, so PvP players can safely ignore this article. After all, there are far fewer enemies in Crucible, Iron Banner and Trials of Osiris, and everyone is as mobile and as… [Continue Reading]

Leveling A Titan

April 12, 2022April 8, 2022 Medic 0 Comments destiny 2, titan, warlock

My Warlock character in Destiny 2 is actually very old. I’m pretty sure I had it before Destiny 2 became free-to-play. She is a hideous, female Exo with yellow head parts sticking out, and always keeps her helmet on. This character has been through a lot. She blundered her way through Forsaken. Then she shivered around Beyond Light. Now she is having second thoughts about The Traveler. Might not be as much as some Guardians, but it’s been a long journey. However, there are a few things that my Warlock always missed out on. Not so much in historical events,… [Continue Reading]

Random Thoughts on the Witch Queen Campaign

April 8, 2022April 4, 2022 Medic 0 Comments destiny 2, dlc, expansion, ramble, witch queen

For my birthday, my brother bought me a copy of Witch Queen, the new expansion for Destiny 2. I had been holding off buying it for myself for quite a long time, due to the fact that I don’t really play much Destiny 2 in general. However, since it had been gifted to me, brother and I decided to play through the main Witch Queen campaign, a whole new story to be unraveled. In all honesty though, I’m not too sure about it all. I can’t tell if I liked it or not. Felt short Maybe it’s because I wasn’t… [Continue Reading]

Smart and Oblivious

February 25, 2022February 20, 2022 Medic 0 Comments destiny 2, ramble

While playing Destiny 2 earlier, I found myself in a mission that I had never seen before. Apparently there was a ziggurat that needed to be protected from the Vex and their corrupting energy. It took me far too long to work out what I had to do, and I basically failed the mission a bunch of times because I didn’t get it. I had to get some help on the matter. Alongside that help came a small nugget of embarrassment. How could someone as smart as me not understand that the Vex weren’t allowed near the main structures? Now,… [Continue Reading]

Mara Sov Fucks Up Again

February 21, 2022February 20, 2022 Medic 2 Comments destiny 2, lore, ramble, witch queen

I normally don’t write much about Destiny 2’s lore. There is so much of it that I find it hard to follow. While there are some great youtube channels that explain the lore, it is all still very messy. However, there is one bit of lore that I do kinda try to follow, especially as Witch Queen comes out. Today though, there is one particular character I want to discuss. Mara Sov, the current queen of the Awoken, always seems to piss me off. And now she’s done something incredibly dumb. Again. While I can understand occasionally fucking up, pretty… [Continue Reading]

Forsaken Forsaken

November 17, 2021November 12, 2021 Medic 0 Comments destiny 2, forsaken, lore, quest

After a long time of putting it off, I finally played the Forsaken quest. I’d kinda ignored it for a bit, despite having Forsaken gifted to me. At the time, I was more worried about finishing the season pass I had paid for. So I left most quests to the side. Unfortunately though, once I beat the season pass, I swiftly realized that I needed to finish the Forsaken quest. Because it will soon no longer exist. So I played Forsaken. It was fun. A simple quest about revenge, mostly. I played some of the quests alone and some with… [Continue Reading]

My Favourite Bullet Hoses

November 15, 2021November 10, 2021 Medic 0 Comments bullet hose, destiny 2, heavy, Team Fortress 2, warframe, weapon

I love a good bullet hose. A gun with a massive clip that shoots a torrent of bullets has always appealed to me. Said shower of bullets allows me to kill enemies I’d normally miss, and I can mow down common trash mobs with ease. A ‘Bullet Hose’ is a perfect name for any sort of gun that spews lead all over the place. Here are my favourite bullet hoses. Sweet Business Starting with Destiny 2, we have the Sweet Business. There are actually a few bullet hoses in Destiny 2, basically the Auto Rifle class of guns. A lot… [Continue Reading]
