My favorite moment of @MBMBaM:
Listening to the Garfield monstrosity bit and just as @griffinmcelroy makes @JustinMcElroy and @travismcelroy choose between the two, I look up to a bridge crossing the highway and there’s a sign hanging that says “Ask Jesus for Mercy”
lead tampon in me while i eat my listeria meat & cyclospora riddle veggies and wash it all down with microplastic water. afterwards, i inhale wildfire smoke and listen to the serene sounds of the data center built across the street. there’s a flock cam too recording it all
Several of us in QA were still reproing the Seraphs shield and DSC elevator crashes on different consoles/framerates late into Weds night, with a goal of verifying the fix on our dev kits Thursday. Little did we know we wouldn’t get to verify it as we were all swept up in the layoffs. 🥺
It was an honor/bittersweet to close out D2 as MoT QA lead of the Immortal title triumphs and vendors.
Our MATT (most amazing test team) naturally ran thru almost 180 triumphs and all MoT vendor items/the character rendezvous/the cinematics triggering/the grass changing - one even tried to speed run it - you know who you are 😀
I wouldn’t trade them for the world and I’m so damn proud of us. We really wanted you all to feel the passion we put into making the triumph journey feel bug free and rewarding.
Hope that came thru.
If you played these activities thru D2 and liked them/did not hit TOO many bugs, we are glad 😌
And I say WE because it is always a team effort:
- Renegades golden path
- Edge of Fate Invitation intro mission and abilities (MB/relocator/translator)
- Final Shape lost sectors/secrets/combo testing of Dual Destiny exotic class items
- Lightfall full campaign and post game run thrus
- S19 Seraphs Shield exotic mission
- S18 Ketchrash 6 man activity
I guess I can rest now for a bit knowing the end of this journey is here and a new path awaits so many of us.
Thanks to all of you at bungie who worked with me in any way.
And thanks as always to the players - you made this game really feel alive.
Once a guardian, always a guardian ❤️❤️❤️
We cannot consider #AI to be morally neutral. In reality, every technical tool embodies choices and priorities through what it measures, ignores, and optimizes, and how it classifies people and situations. Ethical discernment cannot be limited to asking whether we are using a system for good or bad purposes. It must also examine how that system is designed and what vision of the human person and society is embedded in the data and models that guide it. #MagnificaHumanitas

I was only planned to share it with friends so I wrote a lot of rambling 😅 I tried translating it into English but I relied heavily on a translator, so if anything sounds a bit off that's on me sorryyy
I love that the story has been told at all, but there were clearly greater plans. Magnificent, majestic plans.
But all that potential has been squandered.
The devs all deserved better than this. They deserved to tell this story.
I have seen the cutscene in question. No spoilers in this thread.
I am utterly livid.
The devs who worked so hard on Destiny for years, who knew where things were going and the potential that was ahead.
They all deserved so much better.
