EDIT: One slight change from this. ALL Iron Banner bounties now give powerful gear with a 580 soft cap. Iron Banner starts on Tuesday so that is a great way to catch up this week.

Did they increase how many ghost fragments you can hold?

Yes, from 10 to 20

We are now up to $916 with some post-event donations! Thanks again. It isn’t too late to hit $1000. 

Undertale remains one of my favorite games of the past 10 years. Despite its simple graphics and unassuming premise, it hides a surprisingly deep, emotional tale and well developed characters. 

So imagine my surprise when Toby Fox releases with little fanfare “survey_program.exe” on Oct 31st. It was completely free and only suggested that you play it if you have completed Undertale. 

This program turned out to be Chapter 1 of a new game called Deltarune. 

I don’t want to spoil too much about the game itself but suffice it to say there are a LOT of similarities to Undertale in terms of setting, characters and themes. Yet it is decidedly different as well. The full demo takes about 2 hours to complete and ends with a cliffhanger that leaves you eager for more. 

This is where the sad part comes. Toby Fox (the designer) is adamant that the rest of the game is “years away”. He answers that and other questions in a Q&A post about his thoughts on the game.

Essentially, he released this demo with hopes to assemble a team to accelerate work on it. I hope he can do that because I loved what I played. 

Did anybody else get a chance to run through it last week?

Do I need to finish the Forsaken story to unlock raiding?

The Y1 raids are found in Nessus orbit. It is called the Leviathan. 

Im order to do the Last Wish Raid, you need to have access to the Dreaming City, which you unlocks after the Forsaken story.

Can you do past raids or just the new one? I've never done any raiding in Destiny 2 so I'm not sure how it works. I never did Raid in Destiny either.

All of the Y1 raids are still available. 

Oh and @eggydoo just one 5-hour energy consumed.

Nice @Anzo  I had a very busy weekend so I did not get to watch.  Did you guys finally beat the raid?

No, got up to the vault and we were all done. They are trying to finish it tonight but I am unable to join them. Stream it @bladimir2k!

Not to steal the thunder from your thread but Alex Navarro from Giant Bomb has been doing a 24 hour rock band drumming stream, he's still going!

I just saw a tweet about that. That's impressive!

This was helping @Emblazon and @Triage get a coveted item in Destiny 2. We had already failed once and none of us wanted to run it again. D2 players will get this.

Another Destiny one, we were raiding, I was very sleep deprived and was screwing up the call outs. "Whose to the right?" Should've been me!  Poor @mo1518 was the victim here. 

This was perhaps my most clutch PvP moment in D2 history. 

My mystery game was SOTN that just released for PS4. Here is a candid moment between my wife and I.

I was gone at a color run with my 8 year old while the older two kids played Overcooked. Caught this little interaction. I don't think my son knows what "beat meat" also means.

Well the stream is done and all in all it was a really fun event. Thanks again to all from here who donated!

Thanks to your efforts we raised $871 dollars! My goal was $1000 but for a first year this is better than I could have hoped. If you were on the fence before you can still donate if you feel so inclined.

There are archives of the stream over on my Twitch channel. I'm not sure how long they stay there. PS4 breaks up the streams by game so they are broken down in that fashion. I will post a couple of clips here.

This is just vanilla D2. They recently changed it so that when you buy Forsaken, it includes all of the Y1 expansions as well, which they should have done to begin with. 

At at any rate if you want to continue on past the base campaign it will just cost you $40 rather than the $60-70 it did a month ago.

The community has found that Gambit has rubber banding mechanics to help the losing team out, and handicap the team that wins the first round. Increase damage resistance to enemies for the winning team, and increased orange bars for faster motes for the losing team. 

We knew about increased orange bars and high value targets. Bungie has said as much. That other info is new to me and disconcerting.

@mo1518 feels your pain @Spawn_of_Apathy

 

I, on the other hand, have stopped getting exotics altogether. But I'm sure once I do, it'll be a dup.

 

I like Gambit but I just wish it wasn't such a time sink. If you're in a match that goes 3 rounds (which seems to always be the case for me) you're in there for almost 30 minutes it seems like.

Yeah I’ve timed it (often play before work where time left is important) and a 3 round Gambit match is around 20 minutes. 

Game Day is only a few days away! Here is the tentative schedule of what we will be playing:

12:01 AM -7:00 AM – Destiny 2

7:00 AM – 8:00 AM – Kids and I play Treadnaughts

8:00 AM – 9:00 AM – Kids and I play Overcooked

9:00 AM – 12:00 PM – Son plays Fortnite

12:00 PM – 2:00 PM – Kids playing Towerfall: Ascension (Me hopefully napping)

2:00 PM – 4:00 PM – Journey playthrough

4:00 PM – 7:00 PM – "Mystery Game"

7:00 PM – 12:00 AM – Destiny 2

See you all Saturday!

I loved intelligent Qube back in the day. Still not enough to get me to buy this however. MGS is a good inclusion. 

You all have been so great. Thanks to your donations we are up to $796. So close to $1000!  I went and bought a PlayStation Camera today for the stream and have started doing some practice broadcasts with it.

Thanks for doing this @Anzo ! Donated for a great cause but please don't eat those worms. lol 

Thank you for your donation Joe! I must eat them!

@Remarkableriots A few of us are working on that quest as well. Add me (I think you are PSN right) and join us in competitive. 

Anzo42

Thanks to everyone who has donated thus far. After only two days we are already 1/3 of the way there! 

Im starting to cook up a tentative schedule for the stream as well as some silly/crazy milestone activities we can do on stream. Perhaps at the $500 and $1000 marks I’m thinking. 

Edit: $461! At $500 I will eat a pint of this during the stream. https://saltandstraw.com/flavor/creepy-crawly-critters/?fbclid=IwAR2hxT2Wssgz-7ahnmOgL31NIXOgonCMx7fi6PClzGhodiGZXnrRbGZg1D8

Do Daily challenges exist anymore?

They do not. Everybody has bounties now like in D1. Shack, Zavala, Drifter etc. Amanda Halliday has Festival of the Lost bounties once you complete the initial quest.

@Anzo fair enough. It is an option once the kids go to bed. I do think a fun family game would be Overcooked. Those streams are usually fun to watch. 

That’s a good idea. We do own that.
