The Last Word w/ Ebontis, Lord Cognito & TieGuyTravis

This week we were joined by a great artist, KobOneArt. First a deep dive into his gaming and art history. Then we got into the Story telling this season which has been great. Season of the Chosen Umbral Engrams, BattleGrounds and Hammer of Proving are starting to wear on us with this grind. Stasis is getting lots of changes to mostly its PvP effects, and a recap with Lord Cognito of the changes coming to Destiny 2 down the road.

This week we were joined by the Lore Master from Down Under, sir MyelinGame. We talked a bit about his history with Destiny and his work on the Bungie Lore Anthology. Then we got into thoughts on the way the story is told in Destiny, favorite lore moments and more. Great chat and shorter episode this week. I hope you enjoy.

This week Destiny got a look into the future when they finally dropped the State of Destiny - The Road to The Witch Queen. Lots was discussed with reversal of sunsetting, Delay of Witch Queen to 2022, PvP Focus with Trials and future changes, Power Level changes and more. Lord Cognito was under the weather but I was able to bring in TieGuyTravis to have an excellent chat about lots of new info.

This week we were joined with part of the Planet Destiny crew, Danfinity for a great chat. We first got his background which was quite interesting and also go to his twitch channel and help support his charity work. We then dove into the new Exotic Quest and Exotic Scout Rifle. Bungie is growing in size in the next couple years with both company size, IPs, and possibly other media platforms. Finally more talk about Season of the Chosen and how we are enjoying it and think it will play out.  You can find Danfinity here:   Twitter  -  https://twitter.com/Danfinity Twitch:  https://www.twitch.tv/Danfinity Ebontis Twitter:  https://twitter.com/Ebontis Twitch:  https://www.twitch.tv/ebontis Youtube:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9xJ-_kYMxVGHuL5hG3iJyg LordCognito Twitter:  https://twitter.com/LordCognito Youtube:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYiUhEbYWiuwRuWXzKZMBxQ You can support The Last Word Podcast right here  https://anchor.fm/ebontis/support --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ebontis/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ebontis/support

This week we were joined by ManoDestra777 to discuss the launch of the new season. We started with a deep dive into his gaming history which got us into some nostalgia chat... you'll know if you are old enough. Then we got into some raid discussion which lead into the new Seasonal content. The leveling grind is something that is hard to fix right now but doesn't quite feel good either. The new season is in its honeymoon phase with new loot, new perks and weapons and at least one new strike, but how long will it last. Also the convoluted system of the Cabal Gold, Hammer of Proving, War Table, Prismatic Recaster and Umbral engrams is quite a thing. Overall its a good start and for $10 not a bad value, but the forced slow pacing isn't quite sitting right at times.  We hope you enjoy.

This week we were joined by a nice gentlemen from OH, theBeardedLuke. He is a video editor and film maker already so his transition to content creation was pretty seamless. He somehow missed Halo but still enjoys his shooters. His journey to Destiny was an interesting one as well, but King's Fall is where he got hooked. After that we dove into all the new information about Season of the Chosen.  Trailer Analysis is where we started, with highlights and hopes from it. The HELM and new Battleground activity. Trials Weapons and Armor, plus a few sweet cosmetics. The calendar is interesting to look at, we will see what secrets it holds as well. Overall it looks to keep the story going and i'll be curious if they sneak in a secret mission perhaps in the middle of the season.

This week we brought back an awesome gentlemen, cbgray to the podcast to discuss his journey to stream on both platforms YouTube and Twitch. We then touched on Outriders which seems to be picking up some steam as well. Destiny 2 we got into his Raid Rankings and what he has been doing in Destiny 2. He also gave his thoughts on Sunsetting as well, which even for him for sherpas has been hard to deal with. We finally got into the TWAB to discuss Seasonal Challenges and Bright Dust Changes. Last main topic was the changes to the Season 13 weapon sandbox and they are interesting. Hope you enjoy this episode.

This week we first discuss some Fitness things with our very fit guest. Then we get into the last month of Destiny 2. The Dawning Community event and how these events are going so far. The State of Crucible, Trials, Stasis and Gunplay vs Ability usage. Changes to Vendors, Sandbox updates to Hunters and then Reissues & Sunsetting rear their ugly head. It's a good listen and nice recap of the last few weeks we have been off.

This week we brought back TieGuyTravis of IGN fresh off of his Beyond Light review. He gave it a 7 and we discuss why of which we mostly agree. This expansion brought some cool things to the game, but also highlighted some of the glaring issues as we enter another year of the franchise. Deep Stone Crypt deep dive, full spoilers and impressions are here. Amazing music, cool encounters, fun design and cool store and lore. More unlocked after the raid to do, but some of the game isn't in a great place right now. We hope you enjoy this episode because we had a blast recording this one. See you soon.

This week we started with Skye Lewin, a composer at bungie and the Beyond Light Music Director. It was a pleasure speaking with him about his background and journey to Bungie, his process in creating music with the team, and what makes Video game music unique. After that he had to leave so Cognito and Ebontis discussed Beyond Light Impressions. The Campaign, Europa, Stasis, Crucible, and Season of the Hunt. This isn't a perfect expansion but it does offer a lot to enjoy and lot to learn from as well.
