I said it yesterday but I'll say it again: this is the best rewards pass in the game thus far. Insane that it's entirely free (and none of the passes expire)

The worst part of being a 30 year old man who just played Expedition 33 is probably the burning desire to make a YouTube video about it, but everyone else on Earth made one when the game came out last year

This is obviously the best one, by the way

It's insane how good the new NuCal rewards pass is in the Nightfall Refresh. The white guns are hilarious, but the black ones with the moving pink LEDs are insanely cool. I hope they continue to move in this direction in the future, rather than the darker, moodier cosmetics we've gotten previously

Marathon's next step begins today, with the Nightfall Refresh. Then in December, we will expand significantly with Symbiosis, so we can later take another large leap forward in March. Head to bung.ie/4y9sf2l for more info!

Some of these changes are absolutely huge, but the two I think are particularly of note are the changes to schema purchasing (thank goodness) and the changes to how the proximity sensor works. The rework there makes me think I'll actually start bringing/using these a LOT more.

Lanterns finale very good, Lanterns series fantastic, everyone go watch it if you haven't 🫵

Just did a speed test because Marathon started disconnecting again. I’m paying $100 a month to get (right now) 2.5 Mbps down and 1.5 up. What a fucking joke

I feel weird even caring, because I clearly didn't care enough to engage with anything Disney has made with Star Wars past the sequel trilogy and Mandalorian season 1. I guess I was just disappointed enough to disengage, but also Disney+ would be yet another subscription on top of the ones I use.

Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
Do you think they're going to actually plan out the upcoming Star Wars trilogy this time, or is this a "Lucy holding the football" situation and I'm Charlie Brown

This website is cool because every time I make a post there's a chance that a random account with a million words in their bio that amounts to "LOOK AT ME I'M A GOOD PERSON SEE" will interact with it or follow me because they want Good Boy Points and followers so badly

Which is why I'm so excited for the PvE mode and other changes they're making in December and March. I think a lot of people who simply do not want to deal with gear loss will play PvE and TDM and stuff because at its core Marathon is a good ass Bungie shooter with fun mechanics.

Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
It's rough to get a gold backpack or implant or shield and then eventually lose it from a dumb mistake, because I can't easily recoup that loss by just popping into Cryo or something like a trios player would. I get over it, but I can see it turning people off entirely.
101
Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
I really like Marathon as it is now, but I have to admit that the gear fear never totally goes away - at least as a solo player who hasn't even done a crew fill trios match. It's gotten a lot better as I've become a better and more knowledgeable player, but it still sucks to lose good stuff.

video game nostalgia is a constant battle between "you felt that way because you were twelve" and "the video game industry liked video games back then"

I am obviously speaking from a consumer standpoint rather than a developer one, and we have no idea really what's coming next. I'm just giving my feedback on what I feel as someone who started playing during Forsaken and had multiple periods of major burnout with the game. Give us more, less often

Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
Also, & I think I echo a lot of community sentiment with this, Destiny 3 (or whatever comes next) absolutely should not be season-based. It has got to be based solely on substantial expansions that can carry a year, 6months, whatever the cadence becomes. Let people have down time without panicking

Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
If Bungie is unable or unwilling to return the seasonal content for D2 as part of this great unvaulting, I think they should at the very least add the cutscenes for each season to the in-game timeline of events tab. Not having to go to YouTube for those would be ideal for catching people up easily.

Now that we've saved Destiny, I expect all of you who talked shit on Marathon for "taking Destiny's spot" to actually hop in and give it a chance once the update drops

Marathon is so good guys. I ran into a guy during solos on Dire Marsh yesterday who started chatting with me, and we decided on the spot to go fight the Scorch Warden that somebody had triggered, and then just wandered around for the match chatting. Such a cool community.

Really disappointing that this amounts to "we're sorry we got caught and now we'll blame the artists and keep using AI for stuff but hide it better." They really don't seem to understand the reason people are mad at all

The new Marathon stuff from yesterday's news and from a new update from the director today are so exciting, I really think this may turn it around

It's such a huge bummer man. I loved the original trilogy, but never got through all of The Last Specter for some reason. I'd like to go back and play them all the way through, but I need to find copies of the 3DS games for the prequels and the AA crossover

Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
I'm choosing to believe this is a "we have to extend Season of the Lost to polish Witch Queen" delay, rather than a Shadow and Order delay. But I also know things are way riskier and the studio is in much more dire straits than it was back in those days. I guess we'll see in December 🙃

Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
I really, really enjoy how this game feels to play. The shooting feels great, the movement feels great, the world and lore and story are great. I just want this game to survive because I love playing it. If they can hit the right balance of modes and support, we're in for something special.
010
Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
Shifting to more of a hub that supports multiple modes across different sub-genres of shooter will, I think, really help the player count grow. As much as I love the extraction mode, if it has to be pushed to the backburner for the game to survive, so be it.

Tyler @astrotyler.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
I don't want to overstate how big a shift this is going to be, but I will remind people that are concerned about the Marathon delay/changes that Fortnite was dead in the water until they pivoted to battle royale

I wish Apple would make a stemless version of the AirPods Pro, because I really like my pair but my ear lobes push against the stems and make it so they don't stay in my ears. I know there are other options out there, but for max compatibility earbuds, my only other real choices are Beats.

New social space, PvE only modes, Team Deathmatch, firing range, new player onboarding overhaul... All roads lead back to Destiny 2.
