Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Does PvP Honor Still Exist? (Plus: The Future of Live Service Games) #356
Q: Do we need an official code of conduct for PvP games like Marathon?
The panel explores both sides—one camp argues for clearly defined norms to curb toxicity, while others caution that enforcing behavior in open PvP could stifle self-regulation and competitive spirit; no final consensus, but a push for better reporting and community-driven standards.
Gamers are Ruining Video Games...What?! #351
Q: Why do you think gamers are ruining games?
The group discusses a mix of reasons including main character syndrome, ego, toxicity, review bombing, and the impulse to shape a game toward personal preferences, often at the expense of broader community enjoyment.
People I've Met Gaming/Surprising Game Stats/How Games Have Changed #343
Q: What is the easiest raid to learn for a new player?
Vault of Glass is widely considered the easiest raid to start with, while King's Fall can also be a good choice for those looking for a bit more complexity.
People I've Met Gaming/Surprising Game Stats/How Games Have Changed #343
Q: What tips do you have for getting from 400 to 450 light or power?
Running Solo Ops is the fastest method, along with completing fire team ops. Raid activities also provide powerful gear, but solo player operations are highly recommended.
THIS Feature in Destiny 2 NEEDS to be Updated #341
Q: Which unused or forgotten character/location deserves to be central to the future?
I would love to see Planet IO and have Asher Mere return.
