Today marks 11 years since Obergefell v. Hodges affirmed a simple, profound truth: everyone has the right to marry the person they love.

It's a day to celebrate the generations of LGBTQ+ people and organizers who fought to make that promise a reality.

When so many protections are being challenged, we should remember what it looks like when the Supreme Court expands freedoms instead of revoking them.

Love is always worth defending. Happy Pride.

Felt helpless. Started a thread of people affected by Bungie layoffs. Please reach out to these people if you can help them find future opportunities. Feel free to add more posts and correct me if I mess up any names or roles, there's a lot to get through...

Eyes up, Guardians.

I got laid off from Bungie today. It was a dream job for the last ~4 years. Gonna miss everyone I worked with from D2 to Marathon. Love y'all ❤️

[Dawn @rawksaur]

Would have been 14 years at Bungie working on Destiny. Like MANY of us, I'm also affected by today's lay offs.

Thank you everyone I've had the privilege of working with <3 You are incredibly talented & the best of peoples.

Thank you Destiny community for your love & support <3

Alright, so now that we can confirm Bungie leadership was indeed involved in every step of deciding to end Destiny, I’ve got some unfiltered thoughts.

-The content vault was the sole destroyer of all positive momentum and sentiment for the game when players now had to spend money on new expansions every year or two with an inherent fear that content would be vaulted anyways. “Pay for access” is the death of player investment and the DCV highlighted itself as the most destructive decision ever made in any game to-date.

-Destiny 3 should’ve been green-lit immediately after the Witch Queen, Lightfall, and Final Shape reveals in 2020 and 2021. It would’ve been the perfect lead-in for concluding Destiny 2. They knew the saga was concluding with Final Shape and the game was becoming too bloated. Had they decided to do so, they could’ve announced Destiny 3’s release at this very moment 5-6yrs later. It also would’ve been the perfect bargaining chip to PlayStation for the acquisition by showing longevity of an established and secure IP with a clear title release forthcoming.

-I can guarantee a very large base of players will decide to avoid this “new journey” in Bungie if it isn’t Destiny 3. This demographic of players over the last 10yrs are Destiny fans who spent the last decade exclusively in Destiny - even bringing their kids to enjoy. For sure, you’ll have many who will try whatever comes next, but if it isn’t Destiny, you’re going to have a very large gap.

-Marathon’s “strong foundation” is grossly over-exaggerated. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a very good game that plays unbelievably well and perfectly emanates the identity of Bungie, but its retention concerns are so evident that to deny its existence is damaging. An extremely large portion of marathon players migrated from Destiny and are the core audience to consider here. To Shut down their original game with no plan in sight while saying “we have this instead” will not produce positive results. If marathon wants to succeed beyond its extraction mode, it needs a world built like Destiny, told like Destiny, and world-shaped from the marathon lore that’s been build since the 1990’s.

-If Destiny 3 is not in development and they have no plans to continue the franchise, sell the rights to another reputable studio who believes in the IP and will keep it alive. Destiny is arguably the best looter shooter that defined a literal genre and to abandon development of one of the biggest established IP’s in history is a terrible business decision.

-All of this stems from terrible decision making from the top-down. The game went from creating one of the greatest gaming worlds and stories ever made over the last decade to dollar signs and spreadsheets first. Game success comes from building a full experience that players cannot help but be immersed in.

Blaming “industry shifts” for a game struggling is code for “we aren’t getting it right on our end because we’re making the wrong decisions at the wrong time.”

The players haven’t changed; the reason for developing a game did.

I’m angry. I’m frustrated. I’m sad. I’m hurt. I’m lost. Destiny was home for over 10yrs.

I’ll see y’all in the tower.

Its official I have now seen 10 devs from bungie talking about how they were laid off as of the announcement from the "leadership team" (garbage bunch they are) and the fact that it doesnt seem to be game based devs just devs from bungie... this is bullshit

I forgot I had a texture pack on Terreria that replaced the rabbits with the annoying dog and accidentally obliterated one by throwing a brick at it.

this is exactly how it feels to be a tranny 🥲 no matter how much i'd starve myself or try to have a slender figure, at a certain point it's your bones making your frame wide. you can't fix that. at least it's somewhat comforting to know some cis women struggle with this too 🫂
