We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
Also, I got punished. I don't think I'm getting my legacy emblems.
I didn't get my legacy emblems either aside from that red one. I'm fairly pissed about that.

If I remember what the code was for the Alpha Lupi, I'll give it to you. I have to find that damn thread again.
Ooh, really? I'd love that actually.

What are legacy emblems again?

I'm pretty sure they're working alright for me. At least, I think I have the Legendary one available to me.
Lucky you...

Am I a retard for asking what the Alpha Lupi experience is?

Alpha Lupi was the ARG. If you participated in it you got the emblem.
Wait so are you saying it's not for participating in the Alpha? I don't know what ARG is.

Alternate reality game. We all had to coordinate a bunch of people around the world to open the alpha lupi site at the same time to create a "light" that would pierce the darkness and uncover various pieces of a puzzle that had poems on them.

When we completed the ARG we were given an exclusive wallpaper, emblem, and preview of Destiny's sound track.

The Song of Spheres emblem does not come from one of the 25 codes.

It's fun.

But you can tell Activision has forced Bungie to make Disk Locked Content and stall the story big time so they can really milk it. Just take a look at the sales.
So the Bungie-Activision deal was really a "Bungie will be Activision's butt slave" deal. What a surprise.

So Bungie owns the rights to Destiny, but under the condition of getting screwed? That sounds like a horrible deal.

:-D

If only Destiny actually had a concrete story arch. It's a mess. It's trying to hard to be something that it's not.

It's not a bad game, I enjoy playing it sometimes, but it gets stale really fast, I think it was a game mainly designed to just be played with friends, and since I'm playing it with no friends....

Stale as fuck.

It's not a good game either though. It's in that grey area of games.

None of the things you mentioned are missions in Destiny, which is exactly the point. I kept count and played 7 consecutive Destiny story missions where all I did was go to point A while killing a bunch of enemies followed by a horde mode while my ghost was hacking something. It's tedious, borning and unimaginative.

I'm not saying that Borderlands is the pinnacle of varied game design, but it had you assassinate certain targets, gather items, defend objectives and hunt bosses. It included races, escapes, horde modes, survival, explore, rescue... Compared to all this, Destiny is utterly boring.

Not MISSIONS no, but they can be done.

I know I didn't test the Alpha, so I have no idea how I got it. It had to be in code.

I better start digging B.net

Feel free to let me know too Deci. That one's my favorite, it's nice, dark and symmetric, just the way I like them.

If I ever find it, of course.

I still have no idea how I got it. All I know is that I redeemed a bunch of codes before I got the game. It had to be one of those codes because there was no Alpha for the 360 and I was never part of any Alpha Lupi Experience. And if there is no code for it, Bungie is on crack for giving me that emblem and not the shit I actually want, which would be Heroic and Legendary.

The Alpha?

No. I just figured out what that was and why I was rewarded the emblem!

There is no code for it. Sorry guys. :/
