God Rolls - Rhulk Wrecked, Russia Restricted, Recluse Returns

Probably the most gaming I've done in a single week in over a year

Welcome to another installment of God Rolls where things are getting *intense* in my little life here, between jamming in playtime for huge releases and my first kid being born in uhhh just under three weeks? Wow, that flew by. And who knows, it could be sooner! So I am grinding hard in terms of both gameplay and nursery assembly, and this is what I produced this week:

What I’m Playing: Far and away was playing Witch Queen the most to grind out everything possible during launch week, which I think I’ve done, minus the raid which I will get to post-contest mode. I actually played so much I decided to take a break and head back to Horizon Forbidden West which yes, is still excellent.

What I’m Watching: TV time has taken a hit with all this other stuff going on. I really like Severance on Apple Plus though I am behind on this week’s. I did not love the new Our Flag Means Death pirate parody show as much as I thought I might. I just realized as I write this I never actually watched the Attack on Titan finale. I am seeing The Batman in T-minus two hours.

So, onto the recap:

Destiny

Here’s Everything Destiny 2’s World First Raid Completion Changed In The Game - Now that the raid has been cleared, a bunch of stuff changed in Destiny you should be aware of.

The ‘Destiny 2’ Funnelweb God Roll You Should Be Farming For - This is the superstar weapon of the season, the return of Recluse with explody rounds now.

The Five Best, Overlooked Things About Destiny 2’s Witch Queen Era - These are five minor changes that feel pretty major to me.

The ‘Destiny 2’ Throne World Weapon God Rolls You Should Be Crafting - I made a different god roll guide for the weapons you can actually craft.

Other Games

Game Developers flee Russia - There are so many of these I’ll just line them all up here:

• CDPR Says It Will No Longer Sell ‘Cyberpunk 2077’ Or ‘The Witcher’ In Russia

• PlayStation Is Not Releasing ‘Gran Turismo 7’ In Russia Today

• Microsoft Is Suspending All New Product Sales In Russia, Which Includes Xbox

• Activision Blizzard And EA Stop Sales Of All Games In Russia

• Epic Games Leaves ‘Fortnite’ Online In Russia, But Is ‘Stopping Commerce’ There

‘Marvel’s Avengers’ Reveals Its Big March Patch Is About Gear Set Reworks - What’s that? Marvel’s Avengers news? Yes, but it’s not about new heroes, raising questions about where the game actually goes from here.

On The ‘Disappointing’ 88 Metascore For ‘Horizon Forbidden West’ And ‘Gran Turismo 7’ - I wanted to talk about why an 88 is now labeled “disappointing” for recent releases and how goofy that is.

This is why crafting is not really landing for me at this point:

Dreams really do come true as Zavala and Caiatl keep flirting up a storm in the lore:

Savathun has some lies to tell us. But maybe some truths? There have been more of these since I recorded this:

Alright, and here’s your favorite (very loud on video) guest star:

Have you ever seen a belly that was in more need of scratches? I think not.

See you out there.
