Vicarious Visions has the Black Armory logo as their title picture on their twitter site. I wonder who is going to take over PC development of the franchise... or if there will be a PC version of Destiny3 at all?

VV tweeted about Niobe Labs ... it appears Niobe Labs was "their baby".

I am not as disappointed with this game as the rest of the community seems to be but I'm also only playing like 1-2 days per week lmao.

I think my playtime may decrease further for the next season, though, as the lack of a new raid and the staleness of the primary game mode for the expac (Gambit) combine to make me completely uninterested.

I was in the same boat but I stopped playing completely for now. The grind to 600+ was just too damn boring IMO
It is woth noting that I don't have a season pass though

this independence announcement might be a great excuse/reason to put the Annual Pass on sale.

Changes to Supers: "damage was increased for most Supers (and slightly reduced for Blade Barrage and Nova Warp), and we’ve injected a couple new tricks into some of the older subclass paths."

"our goal was to look at Supers holistically across the board, bringing up damage where they underperform, fixing some major pain points, and adding new functionality where inspiration struck. "

i'm working on completing the Izanami Forge. There is a part where you have to complete a special version of the Insight Terminus on Nessus. I"m at that point. The small pieces of lore are alright. The character development of the Spider is good. . The Black Armory is still 8/10 for me. The Black Armory is fun.

It’s almost as much burst as a nighthawk shot with the super-bullet, it’ll have its uses

Izanagi is absolutely one of the best exotics to use in general play.

Compared to Whisper of the Worm?

Whisper is still king for boss DPS but it does not completely invalidate the existence of Izanagi and the variety it brings. Izanagi is one of the best weapons to kill yellow bars and unlike Whisper you will never worry about running into ammo problems as it benefits from sniper scavenger AND reserves.

By no means do i think Bungie is listening to me specifically. I think I identified the most fair criticism of the Black Armoury. It was too hard at the very start and you had to do too many activities outside of the Black Armoury in the beginning. When you've just spent money you want brand new fun stuff to do. You don't want to cycle through hours of activities you've been doing for months to finally get to the cool new stuff.

"We've learned a lot from Black Armoury that we will apply to future releases, most notably that we'd like the beginning experiences of content drops to be a better point of convergence for the playerbase."

i'm glad to see that even though Bungie is a massive company they are still able to understand what is going on at the ground level of their game.

EDIT: corrected spelling of Armoury.

It's Black Armory, not Armoury.

Bump. Ever since the release of BA and I got to the first forge, has anyone found themselves extremely bored of this game? I just can't get into it anymore. I used to be play-through all 3 chars doing the 3 strikes, and flashpoint. Now I can barely get through 1 strike due to boredom.

I've fallen off a bit after i got all my characters up to 650 LL; mostly just playing to chase stuff (1000 Voices, Anarchy, a good roll on Threat Level and Blast Furnace)

Basically all the BA weapons are best-in-class so adding a method to reliably grind for good rolls on them is nice

I've been playing a lot of Apex Legends. When I get bored of it I'll be back playing Destiny2 again.

I still raid to chase Anarchy and the last two Hunter & Warlock Exotics I need but otherwise the game has definitely fallen off. There's just not much incentive for people like me to play right now unless I wanted to chase Not Forgotten or something like that.

More time gating... But at least Xur is being updated with Forsaken exotics next week.

I really wish they would push an update with Strike specific loot etc.

i played through most of the Black Armory content. For $10 USD ..its a good deal. THe Black Armory specific weapon MODs are cool. It allows you to really customize the most fun weapons. Also, Bungie can meaningfully advance the plot without needing custom made cinematics. It can be done with in game cinematics and some voice acting. I like how they developed the Ada-1 character.

I hope they continue to advance "The Spider" character as a sleaze-bucket, wheeler-dealer. I'd like to see them make the Spider along the lines of Marcus Kincaid from Borderlands or Esteban Vihaio from Kill Bill.

They need a scene like this in Destiny with the Spider.
