I was reading about a couple of guys that played Destiny 2 with Xbox head Phil Spencer and were geeking out about it. Found this gem in the comments. :)

0bvious is a pretty good guy. Tickles me when people think it's cool to run into me in-game; usually, it just means they have an extra weight (if I'm on their team) or some free kills (if I'm not).

I play with you so that I can slide into that lower tier of "true-skill" matchmaking ;-)

(Totally kidding of course. You, like Kermit, are much better players than you give yourselves credit for!)

The first few weeks of D2 I did great in crucible. I'd play only a handful of games per night but I was winning 90% of them. Still usually ranking 3rd or 4th on my team, but it feels like I'm doing better than I ever did in D1 crucible.

Lucky you. I still suck :D

Right now, a bunch of us normals are still playing, so we can dominate as an upper tier normal guy. Later in the game's life span, it'll just be those who actually play crucible.

I mostly play Crucible solo, which is, of course, a miserable experience (as we all know). Last night I went into Crucible with a second...and the competition felt like push overs. I'm not sure why the Matchmaking algo seems to like to assemble teams of randoms against teams of 4 for maximum pain and punishment, but going in with at least one teammate seems to balance things out a bit somehow...

Of course this is all anecdotal and there's likely no correlation/causation whatsoever.

I would agree that D2 is much more focused on teamwork and having a buddy that is even partially working with you helps a lot. Which is why teams of 4 just wreck.

Oddly I still do better on my own because playing with you all probably gets me in a higher tier. My strategy is to try to stay near my teammmates as much as possible. Also, I want to marry Nameless Midnight.

Not gonna lie. I was a little star-struck when this happened:

First time I played with you.

I think you changed classes from hunter to titan for the final encounter and I think that messed up destiny tracker's site.

90 minutes and <20 deaths is hella impressive for a first completion. (I assume this starts from a Crota checkpoint, but still).

Heh, we plugged away from the start, but we went to orbit a few times to try and clear up some lag errors. The full run was much longer. 3h 41m :-)

Tbf, I do decently when playing solo and I’m the worst video game player ever.

He sent me an email saying he was deleting something I posted on HBO cause it wasn't allowed.

Still getting yelled at by Wu after all these years. :')

I've gotten so good at that, I take it for granted!
