[boy problems by carly rae jepsen plays in the distance]
i. really enjoyed the radio message this week
ID: a 2 panel comic featuring Crow and Petra Venj from Destiny. Panel 1: Crow is sitting cross-legged on a purple couch. He is wearing a black t-shirt with a white bird on it, in the same pattern as his in-game cloak, and dark gray shorts. There is a reddish-purple blanket draped around his shoulders. He is holding a tub of chocolate ice cream in his left hand and is lifting a spoonful of ice cream to his mouth with his right hand. He is crying and has a comically sad expression as he looks up at his ghost Glint, who is floating to the left and looks sad. Crow says: "What if Jolyon doesn't want to talk to me though? What if he doesn't like me anymore? Wah." There are multiple frowny faces surrounding him in speech bubbles. Panel 2: A black cellphone has been thrown from off screen and hit Crow in the face with a "bonk" sound effect. Crow is in the middle of tumbling over on the couch from the impact, spilling his ice cream. Glint looks alarmed. A cartoonish cutout of Petra's face is shouting angrily from off-screen: "Just call him, idiot. And stop eating all my ice cream."

So the State of the Game came out today and...there鈥檚 not too much to really talk about.聽
It鈥檚 clear this wasn鈥檛 planned when LF launched (at least not this soon) and was written as a response to recent backlash (some necessary, most not). There were quite a few interesting things. Some meh. A couple disappointments. All in all I don鈥檛 think we really learned anything we didn鈥檛 already know.聽
Hand Cannon buff next season is substantial
New Crucible map and modes
Stability improvements
Matchmaking improvements聽
And probably the biggie imo: the future of Gambit
It鈥檚 an unpopular mode. We know that. It鈥檚 had poor community sentiment around it for years now. No amount of work short of a full overhaul will solve that. No amount of maps, or top tier weapons, or matchmaking adjustments are going to bring everyone back in. So they鈥檙e cutting their losses. It鈥檒l still get its shader and new seasonal weapon and an old map but that鈥檚 it. Am I disappointed? Sure. Am I surprised. No. Not at all. Am I angry? Absolutely not. Bungie isn鈥檛 some deity. They鈥檙e people doing the best they can and usually their best is brilliant. They just don鈥檛 have the resources and NONE of us are in any position to argue that point. We just don鈥檛 know enough about the internal affairs of Bungie and no one except their employees ever will. I鈥檓 sure it wasn鈥檛 an easy decision to let Gambit down gently like that but it鈥檚 what they believed was best for the game rn. Who am I to argue?
Either way, I鈥檓 looking forward to next season. The new Crucible modes Relic and Checkmate sound like a lot of fun (I was a huge D2Y1 PvP fan) and the tease of some new exotic reworks is enough to get me interested in some new buildcrafting. This might as well have been another TWID for me.聽
You鈥檙e going to聽 see people outrage over it. Disappointed in the Gambit news. Disappointed in the lack of information. And a lot were going to be disappointed no matter what Joe said. He could鈥檝e promised every player all expansions for free and you鈥檒l see rage bate at the top of r/DTG with a gajillion upvotes. It鈥檚 just the way this community is as exhausting as that can be.聽
Either way, once the Final Shape hypetrain starts, we鈥檙e all going to forget about this and be excited again.聽
Reminder: If you鈥檙e feeling burnt out. Step away. From the game. From online spaces. From even thinking about it. It鈥檒l do wonder for you. And if you decide to stay away, that鈥檚 fine. I hope you find a hobby that gets you excited like D2 used to. If you decide to come back, I鈥檒l see you in the tower next season.聽聽

Btw Bungie replied to someone asking about the structure of quests on Reddit. You know who sometimes quests are kinda weird and require you to load into another zone, even when the NPC is standing right there anyway? Especially apparent in Defiance, with a quest having you speak to Mara at the Farm and then requiring you to go to the HELM to hear her on the holoprojector.
Well, Bungie knows that sucks! They already have feedback on it from internal testing, but apparently the issue that forces them to do it that way is something more complicated to solve. Here's the Reddit thread (linked to Bungie's reply).
Really cool insight into some details about development as well as some important information about how feedback works. A lot of the time people think that when something is broken or works badly, that Bungie simply didn't notice it or doesn't have internal testers. But they do, and sometimes the feedback they get is impossible to implement in time.
This is a really nice little piece of info that is refreshing to see and helps explain certain issues to players. People tend to always assume the worst (like "Bungie doesn't have testers") so hearing it in this way is really important.

Full transcript below:
Hi. I understand that you鈥檙e annoyed that some quests like this make you go multiple places, but there are logistical reasons why this happens. Sometimes it鈥檚 how the quest was built as part of the overall gameplay loop and its incredibly hard after the fact to change it, such as in Season of the Forge where you had to visit Ada multiple times.
And other times it鈥檚 due to time or budgetary constraints. Full vendor performances take up much more time and budget to create than an upper torso performance in the holoprojector or just a voice recording.
In your example about going to the Farm then the HELM and back to the Farm, that鈥檚 intended as part of the gameplay loop since both locations are important to the story, but the main reason is because certain performances are hooked up at each holoprojector and we can鈥檛 put them all in the same place without other issues occurring.
We actually have many gameplay specialists who play through the content prior to release, many many times, and then provide feedback to us about their experience. However, sometimes we鈥檙e unable to act on that feedback for various reasons, such as production schedules. More than likely the feedback you鈥檙e giving today was pointed out months ago. Could we have done things better? Absolutely, and that鈥檚 feedback we鈥檒l be looking at for future seasons.
