I’ve been a bungie fan since Combat Evolved, I’ve played every game they have made since.

I love Halo, it is near and dear to my heart and one of the most important games of my life.
When Bungie left, Halo was never the same.

I remember following Destiny 1 and watching its pre release footage and being blown away.
I’d never seen anything like it.
It was like Halo magic/vibes and gunplay, with a Diablo/Borderlands loot system, and after playing Destiny on PS3, it was life changing.

I played Destiny 2 on release, it was confusing and a little bit of a let down. I stuck it out through all expansions and it was the game that was always kind of “there”.
However it’s been dead in the water for years, even before Marathon was announced I was hotly anticipating a Destiny 3 announcement or a new franchise.

Now to Marathon, it has been close to 10 years since I have felt like I am playing a truly “new” experience, and Marathon has brought that.
I’m loving it, it feels like Bungie has not lost their spark and they still know how to make a banger ass FPS game.

I’m grieving the death of Destiny 2 but for me it was already dead long ago..

I know Marathon is a very different style of game to Destiny, but I wish people would give it a chance because it feels so damn good to play and I want Bungie to succeed.

In an ideal world, we get 1-3 years of Marathon support, and then we get a Destiny 3 announcement and we can all rejoice and continue together.

I’m not just a Marathon fan, I’m a Bungie fan from the beginning and I know they still have what it takes to make magical experiences.

I’m about to have all 4 wisdom teeth pulled immediately after getting a deep clean and a filling.
I haven’t been to the dentist in years due to some circumstances.
Is there anything I should know or ask before hand?
I’m going not going to be able to get much rest afterwards because this weekend I’ll have both my children by myself

Hey everyone! I’m currently Gold status on the new rewards system, and I’m tempted to push for Reserve.
I’m seeing not too many benefits for the effort, except this vague “exclusive items”.
Has anyone gotten an “exclusive item” for being Reserve tier? Was it worth it?

I have never played D2, I started with D3 when it launched for beta and enjoyed it casually.

I played D4 on launch and liked the dark atmosphere and the plot was great, but the pacing was and endgame was awful, it felt like 70% traveling and dialogue with 30% slaying.

D3 is cheesier and cartoony but it has a perfect ratio of demon slaying to dialogue/plot. I enjoyed the campaign every time I’ve played it.

Is D2 closer to D3 or D4 in terms of pacing and fun factor for demon slaying/character building?

I’m trying to get back into shape, I’m doing good so far by going rucking every other day with 30lb pack and I’m managing around a 15:40 mile pace.
I’m 5’7 and 175lbs, I’m having a hard time finding the time to ruck for long distances beyond like 4 miles at a time..
What’s the benefit to rucking on a time crunch should I just practice jogging instead?
I see all these impressive rucks but they take hours and hours to complete that’s just hard to fit into a working/parent schedule..

I’ve picked up rucking again after some years and I’m trying to keep a consistent schedule, it’s about to start raining soon and I don’t have any special gear, besides waterproof boots(idk how much that will help).

Any advice or warnings rucking in the rain?
