Outrider & Vengz chat about their likes & things they do not care for about Bungie's newest raid that shipped with The Witch Queen expansion. We try to break it all down as we make our arguments about what works & what doesn't from the base raid up to the newly released Master difficulty mode. This is a bit longer than a normal episode but we hope you enjoy our chat & hope this creates a polite & friendly discussion about end game PVE raid content. 

The crew looks back at what we like & things we think could use some work. So we talk about the campaign, the difficulty, match-making, cosmetics, and more. Also a quick recap of the TWAB, link down below, as well as thoughts on Gambit Labs: Invasion Swap. Enjoy!

Vengz, Bacon, and Outrider are all back together to chat about the recent things that have made their way into Destiny 2's Witch Queen scene: The Vow of the Disciple Raid! Plus we chat about the PVE solo mission, Preservation, that takes place in the raid's earliest areas. Trials & Iron Banner are also discussed a bit, as well as the seasonal Psi-Ops which has the last mission take place on the Moon. Good stuff ahead, hope you enjoy!

What can we say other than we really, really love this expansion! We belive that Bungie knocked this out of the park and is the best Destiny campaign in the franchise! And we have reasons as well as a few minor things that we hope will be smoothed out over time. Come listen as Outrider & Vengz have a nice, relaxed chat about why being a Destiny fan is a good thing right now! Plus as super secret guest joins for a cameo! Come hang out!

For the final Bungie Weekly Update (TWAB), it was all about everyone's favorite game mode: Gambit! And we haven't had substantial changes to the playlist in awhile so that is reason to be excited! Plus some interesting patch note previews to cover. Don't let our calm(ish) voices fool you, we are ready for this! Let's go over the tweaks & changes as we all wait for the Witch Queen to go live!  

Outrider & Vengz give a big catch-up as to all the Destiny 2 shenanigans that has come out as the launch of The Witch Queen looms in under a week from when this goes live! Weapon Crafting, Void 3.0, Legendary Campaign, The ViDoc, the Exotic Armor pieces coming, & our usual nonsense that goes in equal portions of hype & criticism. One things for sure, after Witch Queen, the game will never be the same!

The crew is on hand to walk through the last TWAB of January as the road to Witch Queen continues. While this is a bit small, there is some info to chat about. Plus on the socials, Community Manager DMG listed the weapons going away from playlist activities in Season 16. Finally, per Vengz's attempt at trolling our Twitter account (@podcast_hidden), we will chat about The Rock's new video game film & those kinds of movies in general! 

Also we chat about the Google Ad Sense trailer, but at the time of recording it was just a 15 second blurb. Bungie released the full thing before we published this so check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzTQJzJ6TG4&t=1s

Enjoy!

We're back & catching up on all the goings on as the march to The Witch Queen launch is now in full effect! We go over the TWABs from January 13th & 20th, Bacon gets to talk a bit about HALO Infinite's campaign which devolves into a chat about Mass Effect Trilogy, and some other odds and ends as we play catch up in a reasonable amount of time. Hope you enjoy!
