Rise of Iron is cool (Destiny)

I've already said that I didn't think the writing and voice acting are as good as in The Taken King, but I really like this expansion. The art is as amazing as ever, and there's a cohesiveness to how things look and behave, and what is supposed to be happening, storywise.

The drops seem generous, and though I'm already way behind many of you, I feel like I'm always making progress.

The bottom line is it's fun. I had more fun playing Iron Banner than I've ever had playing Iron Banner. I love supremacy. I don't always make the kill but I can make the kill count! And speaking of chaotic unpredictable fun, the raid is pretty darn great. If raid mechanics were music, King's Fall would be composed by J.S. Bach. The new raid is more in line with John Coltrane. Great stuff.

Thanks, Bungie!

Having all characters maxed out, I hopped on to Sammy's account to play on her Titan last night, which wasn't even level 40 yet (Still picking up House of Wolves quests). In only a few hours, it was already a Rank 5 in Iron Banner, With a shiny Clever Dragon to boot. Generous doesn't begin to describe RoI. :v

Same, same, same, and same.

Supremacy IB was a fun, fast-paced scramble on par with Mayhem Clash. Here's hoping it comes back, Supremacy is pretty much the highlight of Destiny PvP right now.

And speaking of chaotic unpredictable fun, the raid is pretty darn great. If raid mechanics were music, King's Fall would be composed by J.S. Bach. The new raid is more in line with John Coltrane. Great stuff.

I've been struggling to manage my time in Destiny this week. Between IB, Raiding, laid-back Trials, Archon's Forge, and the Exotic Pulse Rifle quest, there's just so much stuff to do. Glad to be hopping back into a slow week before Festival of the Lost. I was on the verge of Destiny overload...


Thanks, Bungie!

Rise of Iron was the perfect time for me to jump back in. It's been out for what, like three weeks already? Never have I found myself bored on the game's accord.

My only regret is that I've been too busy to raid and it won't let up for at least a couple more weeks.

I spent waaaay too long trying to figure out what base-numbering scheme that was. Well played.

The best number by far
