The Merch Begins

Numskull Designs is a company that makes official merchandise for a variety of properties, and their latest offering is Destiny 2. All the expected stuff is there - ball caps, key chains, wallets, coffee mugs - but some more interesting and esoteric stuff is on offer, as well. Destiny 2 scented candles? Check. Traveler-themed Christmas ornaments? Check. Bathrobes? Check. Want ice cubes in the shape of the Destiny 2 Tricorn? You can have them! Swing by their website to see what's on offer. (This stuff won't be available until Destiny 2 launches, on September 6, but you can start making your Christmas list now.) If you're interested in seeing prices, The Yellow Bulldog website has all of this stuff up and available for preorder. (Some of the other distributors are not fully online, though you'll be able to buy this stuff in various Amazon stores next month.) Thanks to CyberKN for the heads-up - chime in if you've got feedback!

Hero With A Heart of Cold

For the penultimate IGN First feature they talked to Jill Scharr, Jesse can Dijk, and Jon Weisnewski about the brand new exotic in Destiny 2: Coldheart. It's a new archetype of weapon called a Trace Rifle, and it looks pretty awesome! AND everyone who pre-orders Destiny 2 is getting it with their pre-order! Watch the video below (and I added the pre-order trailer as well, thanks Korny):

Art in the Beta

In response to a community request, Korny's been on a capture jag - check this gallery for the concept art that showed during the installation of the beta (these are larger versions, but he explains some of the shortcomings and offers smaller versions in this post), some class loading icons suitable for clean wallpaper, and for some fun, a shot-by-shot comparison of the Tower in Destiny to the damaged/destroyed Tower in Destiny 2. Awesome stuff!

Bungie's Vision for Destiny 2

WELCOME TO A WORLD WITHOUT LIGHT

Another little tease came down today about the direction of Destiny 2, as many popular Destiny Twitch streamers and YouTubers received boxes from Activision PR and were finally allowed to post about the contents this morning at 11am EST.

The boxes contained invitations to the Worldwide Gameplay Premiere of Destiny 2, to be held at the Jet Center in Los Angeles on May 18, 2017.  It seems that the reveal will be done "press conference"-style, with "a couple hundred" people being invited reportedly.

The most interesting thing about the package is the card that says, "Welcome to a World Without Light" with an accompanying image of a dead Ghost.

Check out the images in this tweet by tripleWRECK:

April Update Preview Stream (Sandbox & Crucible Changes)

Reef Twitch


Once more unto the Reef, dear friends, as the final preview stream on Twitch sees DeeJ joined by the likes of Design Lead Lars Bakken, Designer Grant Mackay, and Designer Jon Weisnewski as they discuss Crucible changes, Warlock tweaks (still #1!), and sandbox evolution.

If you're unable to watch the Stream, the megathread over at Reddit will have all of the info, including a liveblog of the stream.

I have a feeling that folks will not have sheathed their swords for lack of argument after this stream, so feel free to join the discussion over on the forum!
