Destiny: The Taken King. Like The Lion King, but with less regicide.

    I'd say not at all. The main reason to pvp is to get Crucible marks and Iron Banner gear. You can use Vanguard marks to get vanguard gear (just have less choice in stat distribution) and IB Gear is just one set of high level gear.

    Oh, and crucible marks are going away in 15 days, so you won't have to worry about that.

    PVP is just a good way to supplement your leveling with easy bounties.

    The article I read said they they never said a date or if they had a plan behind this, just that it isn't releasing at launch

    Its done, they haven't said exactly when it unlocks

    The first raid didn't unlock immediately either, it lets more people go in blind without the whole thing being picked apart already

    This article is either poorly informed or very disingenuous

    I'd like to be added to the OP. I'll be jumping in for the first time when TTK hits. Getting the legendary edition.

    Depending on how long it is, that's pretty standard for MMOs anyway.

    iirc the wow expansion first raid didn't release until slightly under a month after the xpac dropped. November 8th dropped the xpac, December 2nd the raid. AND it was an undersized raid too, to tide people over for the second one released a couple of months later. (though, in my opinion, it was much better than the second one, even while being undersized)

    Raids getting pushed till a bit after release is normal. Assuming it isn't very far pushed.

    It does not. Just for Year 2 guns (to upgrade and use as food). So if you have a bunch of Y1 legendaries, it doesn't even help.

    So the raid not releasing at launch actually means it's releasing three days after launch

    The sword controls are just too good, too surprisingly good, to be hidden behind a couple of encounters

    I'm still hesitant about getting TTK. I am a little too interested in Destiny. I think I'm addicted.

    I don't want it to consume me again.

    Marty O'Donnell has won his lawsuit against Bungie

    He is now owed the restoration of his founder's share of stock in the company, around $100k in unpaid wages, and nearly $150k in profit sharing for work on Destiny last year before his firing

    Really interesting to read how that relationship broke down. Gives at least a litle bit of insight into how working with Activision has changed Bungie

    Hey nerds, the 2.0 update drops tomorrow.

    I know Nathan Drake gets added, and the preview for the crucible maps is up. I also wanna say the new level system drops, but that I'm not sure of.

    But since the new sub classes and levels don't drop who cares.

    well the UI changes and quest system are also getting drastically changed

    the rejiggered plot and such is also changing

    it's basically all the content/changes announced for TTK except the entirely new stuff

    and we're getting some of that as well, like the two new maps, and on wedensday the new gunsmith rep

    it's a massive patch, I definitely plan to check it out

    The Bungie official Armory has updated with most, though not all, of the weapons/armor from TTK, including the exotics.

    Most of the exotics are really really interesting and cool looking.

    The legendaries are nearly all randomized and the perk pool they choose from terminally boring. Hoping for more from the raid, which isn't listed yet in the Armory.

    That's the only line I thought Dinklage did better than North

    And even then, it's just a really bad line
