But I think I finally understand what it's like to have a guilt free mistress.
And I mean it feels silly to think that way because of PS4. Like I'm refusing to acknowledge that I'm on PS4 and that I will stay on PS4 knowing that the upgraded hardware is incoming so it is an obsolete-console-walking and was a stupid impulse buy... and by refusing to add any friends... Or to add any other games (until No Man's Sky is released which might not be fore a while).. and I swapped PS4 to the good monitor because I tried to turn the Xbox to run the daily after the weekly refresh and it didn't turn on because the HDMI cable was loose. It always has been loose but fiddle with it a few times and nothing happened... and then I finally do get it turned on at which point I was fed up of trying.. it needs to update.
PS4 just sitting there ready to go.
I take a step back (put up a not even close to what I wanted version of shadow) and just shake my head.
As I already know I can't mix pleasures. It has only led to tragedy in the past. I know better.
Concentrate on one thing.. it is less shameful that way. Spending 18 hours a day playing Destiny on PS4 makes sense when it was about learning about what I was missing with PS4 and rediscovering what was lost with Destiny. Building up 3 new characters and even obtaining Touch of Malice in a single week felt like accomplishing something when the previous week all I did was get moderate loot drops from the April update. It feel cheap.. it felt like it didn't add what it could have added because House of Wolves Prison of Elders was HARD. It took hours to complete it.. people flaked out and dropped out of Destiny because of the challenge. But once you mastered it you got the last of the primaries with an elemental damage. (although I'm told trials weapons had the true last weapons with elemental damage, I don't care about trials so I'll never see them)
Discovering that there wasn't going to be Year 2 versions of those elemental primaries made obtaining the new Year 2 versions of Year 1 classic primary weapons pointless.
So running those 3 characters up.. seeing the bottom half of the game being filled again.. that was worth it.
Pity it only took a week.
So.. thankfully I put up with Xbox's shenanigans and did the daily on Xbox first. Since I'm working this week in the evenings and still have 2 streams on Twitch to cover it'll be interesting to do 6 Hard Raids, 6 Challenges for Sigils, 6 41s, and however many Heroics I can cram in. The Xbox ones are optional but just considering all that... nooooooope. Really just considering NOT playing Destiny at all and returning to Ark.
But since Xbox finally connected to the shitty monitor and completed its update.. I ran a nightfall, then another.. and then 2 rounds for a Sigil. And got 2 sparrows and a 2 new guns. Where to put them... my inventory is always full.
Hmm.. not even a hint of issues with the controller either.
Like being on the PS4 was great.. but Xbox isn't dead yet as much as I maligned the platform, UI and garbage policies and groused about how disgusting it felt compared to PS4 such that I felt forced to seek out a better alternative.
But got lagged out of the last round of the last game I needed to complete my Sigil when I already had the points from the first 2 rounds.
It isn't Destiny. It isn't Xbox. It isn't PlayStation.. its networking. Shitty networking is messed up just enough to sour the experience regardless of the console. So good to know the game is still fun, that both Xbox and PS4 are fine.
Shakes fist at Xbox Live and PSN.
