@Burdie_Whiskey @d2communityhub Oh yeah, I do get that they are not actually giving out emblems but they are still using Bungie assets in order to elicit financial support. It's not right, in my opinion.

@ethanjuiced Your post showed up randomly on my feed and I got jumpscared by seeing my cat here.

Mamdani: There is a term so often used to describe our nation and those who have shaped it: American exceptionalism. 

American exceptionalism, the conventional wisdom tells us, makes our freedom a little more free, is how we dug the Erie Canal and irrigated the West, is why children in far away lands grow up dreaming of one day moving here.

And yet the irony is that the story of America has so often been written by those who were told by others with power and influence and wealth that they were anything but exceptional.

For generation after generation, we have been told that when the world has sent its people to our shores, it has not sent its best. It sent Puritans and Sikhs and Quakers and Muslims and Jewish people who were banished for praying the wrong way, worshipping the wrong Gods, angering the wrong people. It sent peasants and serfs from who were treated as less because they hardly owned clothes, let alone land. It sent immigrants for whom power was something someone else had.

We are told that America is exceptional because we are richer, stronger, more powerful than everyone else.

The truth, my friends, is that America is exceptional because here, nothing is fixed into place. The frontier may be closed, we may have walked on the moon, but the work of fulfilling the values first enshrined in the Declaration of Independence-that work endures, my friends, and it belongs to us all.

It belongs too to our newest Americans, those standing here with me today, all of whom were recently naturalized. Nearly a decade ago, I too felt what you feel— the joy of no longer being just a New Yorker, but an American too.

@knowsworthy Feels somewhat disingenuous to place blame purely on the market without asking for accountability from leaders who made multiple years of poor decisions too, but nuance is hard to find on twitter.

the better and arguably funnier version of this.
would not be possible without @RizoaOfficial. Thank you again for wanting to dub this. you literally made this 100x better.

Had the pleasure of meeting Alison at GCX last year and we got to talk lore/narrative for a good 30 mins. Easily one of my favorite memories regarding Destiny. She is truly incredible and one of the most passionate people I've ever met. If this franchise continues, it needs her.

Damn man if only there was a wildly popular live service game that has somehow withstood the lowest lows a game can have while still being a platinum seller on steam for nearly a decade and retaining millions of fans around the world with a world-class dev team

🚨 Alison Luhrs, Destiny 2’s Narrative Director, is still working at Bungie following this week’s layoffs.

Her LinkedIn has been updated with a new Narrative Director role at Bungie.

Most of RaD being scattered to the winds messed me up a ton today. We consistently delivered quality releases players enjoyed, and now that team will never work together again... Loved collabing with Anora, we've made so many cool flashy mechanics for raids & dungeons together😁

[Lyndon Willoughby @Willowstration]

Legitimately, the fact that the RaD team is unemployed may be the most insane thing about this situation to me. Like, what more can you do?

[Tim Clark @timothydclark]

There is no one *in all of game dev* creating the kind of experiences Destiny 2's raid and dungeon team did. A smart FPS publisher (and rich, tbf) should pick that group up wholesale, because that team can do stuff that changes the genre. Beyond stupid from Sony.

“Could I do more?”

You all have done more for this game and our studio than could ever be imagined, and no words can accurately depict how lucky we are to have shared these worlds with you.

Don’t blame yourselves or think you could have / should have done more. This is just the way it goes sometimes.

No matter the future, we will always have these memories.

Thank you. For everything.

Same. Trying to keep it together on the plane.

The Seventh Column will always be bigger than anything anyone could have ever imagined, and we hope you can feel every bit of love and appreciation from the team. In trailers, blogs, and gameplay, it’s all for you.

I’m keeping hope for the future in my heart, always. Will never let it go.

Guardians make their own fate.
