Welcome back to another installment of God Rolls after a few weeks away. My whole household is very sick (not COVID, probably day care germs), but I wanted to get back to this all the same, as there’s plenty to talk about in both the gaming and TV spaces. Thanks for sticking around.
What I’m Playing: A whole lot of Outriders. The endgame farming loop of Worldslayer is actually quite addictive, despite being repetitive, and I’m working on all four classes, slowly right now. Have played a bit of Destiny, but not much, just finishing up some odds and ends with crafted weapons.
What I’m Watching: New show on Apple called Black Bird which is rather great. Did all of The Bear on Hulu. Have been watching The Old Man on FX and I actually like this season of Westworld so far, which is shocking. Ms. Marvel finale this week, which I maintain probably should have just been a movie.
And now, the recap:

I have been slacking on YouTube a bit with uhhh parent responsibilities. Working on it! First up, my best Outriders build so far:
Some thoughts on the way this season finale played out in Destiny:
Me talking about how I want some diversity in the seasonal model, where everyone thought meant I wanted to go back to fixed DLCs, which I don’t:
And here’s what I’ve been busy with a lot lately, but thankfully I have a furry babysitter who helps.
Seeya soon.
I'd love to see more of your new Outriders builds!
I saw your tweet about your article for The Drifter and didn’t want to read it. Just the thought of a Gambit season again turned me away. I read it this time here. I could take a season of a storyline revolving around him. Maybe a little more info about his past and then some exciting story that we help him with. He’s really an entertaining character.
Picture is great as usual! Evie looks to be an attentive big sister.
