With snow a-falling, sleigh bells a-jingling, and cookies a-baking, ’tis the season to recollect the person who sacrificed his life so humanity could be saved: Saint-14. The legendary Titan of Destiny 2 died after centuries trapped preventing robots who finally constructed a machine to homicide particularly him and solely him, however at this time we are able to save him. As the Season Of Dawn rolls on, from at this time we are able to use some ‘science’ to journey by means of time and let Saint-14 dwell once more. Destiny 2’s Christmas occasion, The Dawning, began at this time too however I’m right here to rejoice my pal coming dwelling for Christmas. Well, resulting from be coming dwelling. Pending a bug repair.
We see Saint within the Curse Of Osiris growth, discovering him in a tomb the robots constructed seemingly out of reverence. He carried with him a prophecy that we’d someday meet him and impressed him to grow to be the hero famed for his sort coronary heart and mighty headbutts. Well, that’s now on, because of the magic time machine Osiris constructed. Yes, the machine which additionally prompted all this season’s troubles. At the tip of a two-week quest chain, some good has now come of it. Bungie have loudly blabbed about Saint so I’m ruining no surprises right here.
Well, Saint-14 ought to be dwelling. A Dawning quest says he’s within the Tower Hangar however, ah, I solely see his shotgun hovering in mid-air. Please don’t ship me again by means of time to get the remainder of him.
The last two Sundial Obelisks can be found now too, with new weapons and passive perks to unlock. I’m wanting ahead to getting a pleasant new Jack King Queen three off the Nessus Obelisk – I do like Lightweight hand cannons, and this can be a snappy one. A brand new boss has rotated into the Sundial too; they’re a bit totally different but it surely’s largely the identical factor.
Another bug with this too. The new EDZ Obelisk can bug out and grow to be unusable. Bungie suggest some possible workarounds whereas they examine.
Also at this time! The Dawning, the annual Christmas occasion, has begun and can run till January 14th. Once once more, Eva Levente has given us an oven to bake biscuits by combining components dropped off enemies. Given biscuits to NPCs, get presents, and on you go. This yr, the Dawning can provide one other festive bike and ship, a brand new SMG (nicely, a renovated model of an previous SMG), and bits and items. It’s a bit disappointing.
I have already got extra handsome ships and spacebikes than I can use. And in contrast to final yr, we don’t get random occasion engrams with new festive armour. You can purchase a brand new set of festive armour for 6000 Bright Dust or 1500 Silver (£13 of actual cash) and that’s absurd. It’s good and all however… no. I’m not particularly put out by Bungie shifting increasingly more new cosmetics into the Eververse retailer however the costs are daft and it sucks for occasions, occasions that should really feel particular. And once I see individuals sporting these items, I’m not wowed like I as soon as was as a result of they really feel extra glum and extra grubby.
Aside from all this, a small patch arrived at this time. Disappointingly, seems that the brand new Symmetry unique scout rifle staggering Unstoppable Champions was a bug. Boo. That’s that gun again in my vault for eternity, then.
