Destiny’s Wrath of the Machine Raid


On Friday the 23rd Destiny’s new raid Wrath of the Machine was released. Only two hours in its release a clan has already bested SIVA (Infectious AI). In comparison to the last raid, King’s Fall took seven hours to complete. That is a huge difference. Shortening the raid can give players with limited time to be able to try out the raid. A smaller raid doesn’t mean anyone can breeze through it. Guardians will be tested. If you thought about raiding in Destiny or feel intimidated by the raids, Wrath of the Machine might be a good place to start.

The Wrath of the Machine is the newest raid in Destiny. Released last Friday, and in just a couple of hours the machine has been conquered. A Clan named Redeem was the first team in the world to beat it. And it only took two hours! This was just the normal mode of the raid. Like the other raids, in a couple weeks Bungie will release a hard mode for Wrath of the Machine. When it releases Guardians can go back with more rewards and some more difficult opponents to face. And expect it to be a lot longer compared to normal mode. Until then get your light level up, gear, and complete your daily and weekly strikes.

The Taken King’s raid was difficult for players to get into. Like myself, a lot of players felt like the raid was just too big and was too much of a time commitment. That was the main reason I fell off Destiny last year. The best thing about Destiny, for me are the raids. So far I enjoy the content in Rise of Iron. With the raid being smaller I’m able to put away some time and enjoy it. I’m still grinding my way to the appropriate light level, but once I get there I will also be the one who bested SIVA.
Wrath of the Machine is the biggest content in Rise of Iron, and in a short amount time a group of players have already completed it. The raids aren’t easy to complete, to see a high end group complete the biggest content in the expansion in just two hours gives some players the hope that it’s not as time consuming as King’s Fall. But preparing for a raid is a time sink in itself. Doing weekly and daily strikes is how I’m getting myself prepared for the raid. How will you get yourself prepared for the Wrath of the Machine raid? I would like to know in the comments.

Fortnite: Battle Royale: Season 4 Just Made Some Crazy Changes and I in Love with it

Fortnite has become this huge juggernaut in the gaming industry ever since Epic released their Battle Royale mode in late September. The Battle Pass implementation gave the player a progression system that gamify the Battle Royale mode, of which PUBG does not have. Having something to accomplish in-between gathering and fighting during each match creates a sense of accomplishment. In a game where there is a 100-player free-for-all fight, your chances of winning are low, allowing the Battle Pass rewards gives the player this satisfaction of accomplishment even if you lose. Over the past month, Epic has been teasing and creating ARGs in-game for the lead up to Season 4. Hearing about the meteors crashing down on Tilted Towers was cool but I didn’t think anything of it, as I thought it to be a cosmetic choice. But after seeing the video where Titled Towers got hit with small meteors during a match made me believe that the rumored Superhero themed Season Pass might be true. Long a...

My 2016 Game of the Year: # 5 Firewatch

#5 Firewatch When I first saw early builds of Firewatch I thought it was a different and new approach in an engaging narrative. The way you can interact with objects and the small clues you can find within the environment provides more life to the world. Firewatch was the first game I played in the genre, but there are other games that have the same kind of first-person narrative. Gone Home is one of the recent and well-received first-person narrative game. The two games are similar in gameplay, you walk from objective to objective trying to put the pieces together in the world. Gone Home is set in a house, and in Firewatch’s case, you’re in an open forest. Campo Santo are the developers of Firewatch and was formed by former Telltales: The Walking Dead developers. Once I knew about Campo Santo and the developers that were working on the game I had a sense of what to expect. Character Building Makes You Sympathize with Henry The game starts strong with a se...
