@MountainDew Both grocery stores in my neighborhood carry different flavors of Mtn Dew but not Code Red. Why do they hate me?

Yes, I'm aware Y1 content is lost in its original state. There was a whole lawsuit that made them vulnerable because of this. I was just hoping there'd be an attempt to recreate/restore areas and content from Y1. Call me crazy, but I liked Mercury, Mars, Nessus, and Io.

What about vaulted content from the Red War on through Forsaken? Is that just still gone?
Destiny 2@DestinyTheGame

Read the full blog at bung.ie/d2_may_21_2026 For almost twelve years, we have had the joy and honor to explore the Destiny universe with you all. Through all the ups and downs, surprises and triumphs, building Destiny alongside our players has been a monumental privilege. While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed, it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2. As our focus turns towards a new beginning for Bungie, we will begin work incubating our next games. To that end, on June 9, 2026, we will release the final live-service content update for Destiny 2 to begin that new journey as a studio. Though active development may be concluding, we will ensure that Destiny 2 remains playable, just as the original Destiny is today. Many changes in this final update will aim to ensure that Destiny 2 is a welcoming place for players to return to. We’re proud of Destiny 2, the places it took us, and the legacy it has created. Because of you all, our universe is vast, built on years of shared stories, adventures, and victories. From the Cosmodrome to the Pale Heart to the Lawless Frontier, we have forged life-long memories and friendships with you all. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made that journey with us. From the deepest part of our hearts, thank you, and we'll see you in the stars.

Game idea: Subnautica, but instead of an oceanic environment, it's a horror survival game on the moon.

@rhob81 @DATGUYCOOP My contributions were minimal and mostly during review but I thank you for the vote of confidence. There are many other designers who put in the bulk of the effort and deserve that praise.

@DATGUYCOOP Those accounts will just pay the minimum monthly if they don’t already because you have to in order to qualify for monetization.

@Jinjix @ThatRobotnikGuy This is the correct take. He likely earned his action and it was upheld correctly. However, it had to be for something using his WoW account, not something elsewhere. Terms of Services are limited to their respective platforms.

@ThatRobotnikGuy @covingtown Not defending the player, but unless that f-slur was said in-game Blizzard can't punish for it. The screenshot "we've seen on here" looks to be a Discord message, and Blizzard doesn't own/run that service. However, that said, if he said it in-game and was reported, sure, uphold.

There’s a profanity filter and 21 years of precedent to say this is kinda fucking silly unless there’s something worse, to be honest with ya.
Blizzard CS - The Americas@BlizzardCS

@ayyyyluhmao I just looked at the logs, Cody. You seem to have a fondness for dropping F bombs. Even one, if reported, is enough. ^PJ

(Bonus, sorry) All this exchange did was cheapen the CS department’s credibility and open themselves up for more tickets filed maliciously and more account appeals filed frivolously.
