Destiny: The Taken King claims PSN’s records

The expansion, which costs $40 for existing “Destiny” owners and $60 for the full game, offers more depth through a narrative-driven experience and enough new content to keep players satisfied for months.

Bungie has provided some more details on the official website, confirming that the raid will be available for The Taken King owners starting at 10am PDT.

Destiny: The Taken King’s King’s Fall raid is “objectively and emphatically” the biggest raid to hit Destiny, said Smith in an interview with Gamespot.

We’ll have a full guide up as soon as we’re able.

If there’s a negative to be found in all of this, it’s that the amount of quests you can accumulate on your to-do list can become a little intimidating. The latter is your same old engram model: this week’s helmet engrams will decode into year two versions of new and upgraded exotics. “Exploring” is a stretch since you can’t do much more run and gun, but the fantastic art direction is appreciated. It takes as long as it takes, and there are no short-cuts. Having pushed ahead and got there ourselves, this is what we intend to describe for you now. A few important details, like the recommended light level, have also been revealed, alongside a teaser trailer for the upcoming adventure. It will kill him and you, but he’ll still drop an exotic engram. On activation, you “fire a bolt of lightning into the ground, creating a devastating shockwave under you”. Now all you need to do is pick up one item from Xur, and then head out into the game world and kill an Ultra.

I was just conferring with the design team about how Three of Coins is performing in the wild, it is their assessment, and yours as well, given the context of the dialogue here, that the drop rates are too damn high. You aren’t just taken from battle to battle in a linear patch. “The Taken King. It’s an interesting name for the expansion, since it has taken about half the game back from the players and royally screwed them.” Over the past year , Bungie’s divisive, loot-driven shooter-the product of a 10-year plan for a sweeping, sci-fi opus to supersede Halo-is a punch line to many. Now, though, your heart will leap every time that shimmering sight of cyan pops from fallen enemies. Legendary items (which are coloured purple) are still harder to come across, but this does not matter at all in the short term. “The damn Dr Phil they have working for them is running the psychology on all you lab rats”. It was marked “Currently Unavailable”, which struck me as odd. The new content benefits from this refresh.

The Taken King features some of the best dialogue and cinematic moments of the franchise so far. Also you can join our Facebook Group here!
