Just a wannabe writer (AND PART TIME GREMLIN)

(Okay, maybe it's full time)

Oh come on, what the fuuuuuuuck man

[abitwoolly]

Nooooo, Hunhow had dementia :'(

On a serious note (not really), it seems he's scrambled between the different points of his life. Sometimes he'll mention preparing Tau for the Orokin, then pop to being prepared for the old war, then just being disorganized.

The most sad quote I heard so far was something along the line of "I have no daughter"

My favorite quote is just him saying "My collection!"

[abitwoolly]

.....

Umbra gets to do dad things again

[abitwoolly]

Okay, honestly, umbra IMMEDIATELY going with Stalker gives me major "Sup bro" vibes. Like, he doesn't even seem to question it, he's just all in. It's amazing for his character, but also implies they know each other.... Somehow

[abitwoolly]

It's over

But it's not over, not really

Not for me anyways,

Not like I can just get over 100 days back, right?

I mean, as long as some of us are still around

Does it really count as being over?

I don't think it does

Even if it was sorta inevitable things would end

I'd rather go down enjoying my time than lamenting

It was an amazing ride guardians, but there's plenty of road left

[abitwoolly]

Well, shit.

[abitwoolly]

Sorta funny that my other blog is the one I actually post my writing stuff, WHEN THIS KNE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR THAT. I POST MEMES HERE. I SHITPOST. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR MY WORLD BUILDING AND YET NOT IT'S MY "Epic gamer experiences and funny shit" BLOG.

I can't even post on my original because I feel a weird anxiety......

Okay, got interrupted by this thing 🫪

Is

Is this the anxiety emoji now?

I thought that was a joke

Huh

I lost my whole flow now

But uhhhh, I guess I'm going to force myself to write so i can feel a sense of accomplishment in myself

[abitwoolly]

What's that ticking sound?

Oh

A pair of images showing off my VERY radioactive hildryn from the perspective of my good friend @trashpandaeli

[abitwoolly]

Viktor nation, how y'all feeling?

[abitwoolly]

Finished Renegades for the third and final time on my hunter a bit ago, really just procrastinated for a bit on posting anything. But I'm gonna start this with, I really think renegades is amazing. Do I admit that there's a TON of system issues that could be fixed? Yeah, but that's not really my territory. My territory is story stuff and FUN, and boy does renagades deliver.

I've already ranted plenty about my opinions on Bael and drifter and the bunch, but there was something I didn't really mention, Zavala.

Anyone else feel he was getting weirdly... I dunno the word, but reminiscing a lot. It's setting my death flag feeling off a ton, especially with the subtle hints already placed by Edge that the Commander spot may be opening up soon. Doesn't exactly help that IF he does die, it will probably be trying to resolve the brewing strain between the guardians and Humanity (Not humans technically included. More of a blanket term now, I suppose).

As for gameplay stuff, I LOVE LOVE LOVE INVADING. Okay, maybe not that much, but it's FUN.... Most of the time. Getting instantly killed because they toss down a wallhack drone is annoying, but it's predictable. Everything both sides do has counterplay, which is nice. Invader camping long range? Sneak around and take them out. Players you're hunting staying in a hole you can't get in? Toss an area denial ability down or rush in with a vehicle. The real issue is that invaders are expecting to fight people, and the people playing the activity are moreso going in with pve in mind, which can make things harder.

Pst, hey you. Yeah you, person who plays lawless frontier. Use the piker vehicles. They're great for hunting invaders and invading, and they can counter behemoths. They're amazing. Just uhhhh, don't get team shot.

Anyhow, probably going to start OC posting in earnest now, because I have A LOT. Be prepared, neon nerds. Or at least the unlucky folks who actually read this far.

[abitwoolly]

I LIVE! Been delaying the inevitable for awhile, but I've finally continued renagades on my hunter. As for why I haven't been posting my worthless observations/opinions..... Well, I bought elden ring, enough said.

BUT NOW FOR THE REAL STUFF

Having seen the Nightfall cutscene AGAIN, I feel even more certain that Bael was in Tharsis prior to nightfall going off. There was no real risk to him, after all. But another thing I noticed was there are a LOT more dead guardians and ghosts than I thought. Looking at his trolley and the bodies, there's at least 20, but definitely more. Also noticed a memorial on the approach to the main building.

Other than that, I feel that Beal is... Well, just sorta sad. The communication between Eris, Lodi, and our least favorite planet makes it clear the outer Nine are just using Beal. But at the same time, it's clear that there IS at least a tiny amount of genuine connection between them, even if it's purely manipulative. Seriously though, how bad of a father does Beal's dad have to be that he sees AN ELDRITCH 4th DIMENSIONAL BEING AS A BETTER FATHER FIGURE!

Oh, and don't think Drifter is getting out of this. It's pretty clear Beal WAITED for him to be out of orbit before activating Nightfall, probably so Drifter could see it himself without getting obliterated. My only real question is where Blue was at the time. (With Aunor maybe?) Another interesting thing is that the frames present in the aftermath are Drifter's (Borrowed) ones, though it's likely those were sent in by blue and not him.

Anyhow, nothing more to really say. Gonna wait till I get to the amputation to post about the exotics.

And if somehow anyone enjoys these useless ramblings, share some of your's with me. I REALLY enjoy being rambled at, it's amazing.

[abitwoolly]

DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT, WHY MUST I BE ATTACHED TO THE DEAD? DOES THE INEVITABILITY OF THEIR END NOT DULL THE PAIN? BUT NO, IT ONLY MAKES IT WORSE! TO KNOW DEATH IS SOON, BUT YOU ARE POWERLESS TO AVERT FATE!

Anywho, I got attached to the guardians in Tharsis and have now reached the point on my hunter right before Nightfall ✨✨✨

If anyone looks on my blog/account (Seriously, is it just blog? I'm just going to call it my tumbl), you may think "Huh, Didn't they start the campaign on hunter awhile ago?'"..... Look, I have procrastinating issues and CRIMBAS.

Here's some pictures I took tho!!!!

Hehehehehehheehehhe

FUCK

I know I have to continue soon

But like.... I like them.

I have HEADCANONS NOW

DO YOU UNDERSTAND

HEADCANONS ABOUT LITERAL NOBODIES

Ugh

[abitwoolly]

Ugh, I need someone to poke at my brain with a stick

[maxpilote]

Normally, I scream into this void about Mass Effect. But posting a witty remark about Destiny 2 Renegades has pulled me into the D2 fandom side of Tumblr. I love it here. It's so positive. At least, what I'm being shown. It's great to see my feed full of posts from people who actually enjoy the game they're playing rather than man-babies who would rather bitch endlessly than just go play another game.

I finished Renegades. I loved it. Can't wait for what comes next. I will 100% burn something to ground, though, if Bungie tries to fake me out again when it comes to Eido. Don't touch my favorite nerd. I will cry.

[dredgen-dumbass]

Welcome :)) and yes it is very very positive here compared to... Literally anywhere else I've seen for destiny. Join our perpetual nerd spam 🙏🏻

[baede-6]

Gets the welcome gift basket with ramen coupons,Crimson,glimmer and some extra cores. Slaps a Garrus Vakarian sticker on it for good measure.

[tarakanpaintedpurple]

Real, tumblr Destiny community left me with expectations way too high for anything else, to the point where if i see anybody from here on other sites it feels like seeing a friendly neighbor in a big city

[abitwoolly]

Eh, some folks just love to hate no matter what happens. Best you can do is enjoy what you enjoy, yeah? Keep up the journey Neon Nerd. (Also I agree on the Eido point, THEY BETTER NOT TOUCH HER

[abitwoolly]

Cerberus my beloved

Absolutely love this thing

Is it good in any sandbox? Not extremely

Is it fun? YES

Does it feel exotic? Yes.

I'd probably go into my opinion on what makes exotics.... Exotic, but I'm going to do that sometime later that isn't me celebrating 1k on my favorite weapon

[beebfreeb]

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

[scribe-cas]

Reblog if you're okay with people coming into your DMs with the "you seem really odd and your blog intrigues me, do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters"

[abitwoolly]

Okay, enough procrastinating, I finished the campaign on my Titan, which means OPINIONS FROM A NOBODY TIME ✨✨✨

Firstly, I'd like to make a note of how I ACCIDENTALLY COMPLETELY NAILED DOWN BAEL'S BACKSTORY (sorta, didn't even read the lore tabs going into it until AFTER I did the theorizing). Secondly, I haven't seen like.... Any art of Bael. Which is weird, because he's like..... Pretty cool. Someone please draw that man getting therapy. He needs it.

Alrighty, opinions.

The syndicates are AMAZING. All of them have some personality, a decent amount of lore, but just enough missing to be filled in later. Playing the activities has been fun, though invasion is pretty hit and miss for reasons I'll get into later. I find smuggle to be my favorite (Partly because you can use the new jetpack while carrying cargo), and bounty hunt to be my least favorite. Not that bounty hunt is bad, but the extraction can be painful sometimes if you have low lives (ESPECIALLY IF THE RETALIATORS ARE WYVERNS, BECAUSE I LOVE THEM BUT UUUUUUGH). One thing I noticed is that I've not seen a SINGLE PERSON, sans one when I was invading, USING THE FALCON. THIS IS A CRIME. USE IT. IT'S AMAZING.

Speaking of invasion, I like it. It can be somewhat annoying sometimes, especially if the opposition has a behemoth up, but I find it overall pretty fun. Something I really enjoy is the ability to blend in as an invader due to not having any sort of blow or anything, makes it really easy to be sneaky.... Or if you're like me, pull up at 120 miles (Or something something kilometers) per hour with my falcon and go ham.

Something I did notice is that using prismatic can be a bit iffy, because it's partly bound to the same button (On controller at least) as you use to activate prismatic. This isn't THAT big a deal, just a me issue I suppose.

Alright, character stuff.

Already talked about bael, definitely going to get into Lodi and his plan after I get started on my hunter, and am planning A WHOOOOLE thing for Aunor..... Fuck it, I'ma just ramble.

BLUE. We all love her, and we all think she's amazing. As someone who has a long history of looking into everything they can about Drifter, I halfway expected Blue to be droid beeping the entire dlc, so her getting a voice was NICE. Also, admittedly, didn't realize Blue would be a she, happy though. I love the way that, dispite her fully justified grievance towards Drifter, she can't ACTUALLY fully hate him. It's just how a lightbearer and there ghost is. Even during her more ranty moments, she's usually either completely correct about Drifter (Or retrospectively correct) or can't fully bring herself to actually underestimate him. Sure she gets heated, but it's pretty obvious she still cared about him. Also, love her voice, genuinely. She fits pretty well with Drifter, even if some would have preferred a more contrast to him..... Just wish she and Eris talked more.

Welp, better get started on my hunter, which means I'll have officially tried all the new exotics and can give my opinion on those. Also the heat weapons, because I like them a lot.

WAIT, ALMOST FORGOT! WHO WAS GONNA TELL ME EIDO HAD A THING GOING?! WAS I SUPPOSED TO FIND OUT WHILE BROWSING TUMBLR!? FULL SUPPORT ON EIDO FROM ME!

Seriously, everything I've seen about Eido this dlc has been great and it's good to see her growing. Really like how she's becoming more steadfast in her morals, even if those morals have shifted a bit.
