Destiny 2 Update: Forsaken September 4th 2018
The long overdue DLC of Bungie’s disaster of a game is finally here. Let’s get a few facts straight before I carry on, I love Destiny 2 and I play it daily. I believe if anyone is allowed to talk in a negative way about the game, it’s me. Now let’s move on, Destiny is releasing The Forsaken-on September 4th, 2018. This at one point was rumored to be the Taken Queen update. We and when I say we, avid players of the game knew the game was due an over haul of the Taken King size.
Many knew Prince Uldren would reappear and the reef was bound to unravel. In the past DLC’s we saw the rise and the fall of the cabal, the return of the Hive. However, we saw no Taken. This would no longer be the case as The Forsaken has brought back the Taken and Prince Uldren. Now, what’s surprising is that he is not on our side. Keep in mind when I say we, I’m referring to us as guardians.
It comes to a surprise in a trailer, Prince Uldren is holding Cayde 6’s Ace of Spades hand cannon in his hand as he shoot’s Cayde. Question is Why, would Bungie kill off one of the most iconic members of the game. I mean, could we do without Lord Shaxxy Pooh (damn one horn bastard), maybe not, but to kill off Cayde 6? Geeze Bungie, did the Nathan Fillon ask for too much money, I mean let’s look at it, who saved the chicken in the last DLC, it was Cayde. Who keeps us laughing when the game is a terrible disaster, Cayde does.
This draws a lot of questions and conclusions; however, we won’t spend a lot of time on this as I will review the DLC and break down some interesting points. In the end, Cayde 6 is dead and we will hunt for a new comic savior at the tower.
Let’s talk new supers and game mode. First, the new game mode is called gambit, in gambit, it’s a PVE/PVP game mode. Yes, try and say that in one sentence; go ahead I’ll wait… Ok now that’s out of the way. The game mode will begin with a taunting session, then move right into a Player Versus Everyone (PVE) session. Players will have to pick up motes, where the motes will have needed to be collected and placed in a device which will keep count, for every 5 placed in, a boss will appear on your opponent’s side. This will of course slow them down. What makes it even more interesting is that the boss will get harder and harder the more motes placed in the collector. Now, Bungie through a twist on this, the final boss, is a player from the opposing team, can move over to the opponents’ side and kill their opponents, turning the game from a PVE game mode to a PVP game mode.
Finally, Bungie is introducing 9 new supers. Titan’s will receive; Titan Sentinel’s Code of the Commander, Titan Sunbreaker’s Code of the Devastator, and Titan Strikers code of the Missile. Warlocks will receive; Warlock Voidwalker’s Attunement of Fission, Warlock Stromcaller’s Attunement of Control and Warlock Dawnblade’s Attunement of Grace, finally the Hunter will receive; Hunter Nightstalker Way of the Wrath, Hunter Gunslinger’s Way of a Thousand Cuts, and Hunter ArcStrider’s Way of the Current.
In conclusion, even though the DLC will require a hefty price tag of $80. The statistics of the game is starting to climb as far as players playing the game. I would assume, as for no writer should ever assume, the game is making a comeback. Are there pros and cons to this game, yes as there are with all games out there. I would encourage you to start playing the game now if you do not have the game. This will prepare you for The Forsaken DLC soon to arrive on September 4th 2018.
It’s Tha Juic3 Baby!
