I’m glad Joe stuck to his word about wanting to stream or join others

[@panzershreck8077]

Well, someone at bungie had to convince people that they still "cared" about the game they're developing before the next and possibly final big dlc

[@rytr0nious]

Bro if you don't think Joe ACTUALLY cares about this game, I don't even know what to say to you. @@panzershreck8077

[@aegisbreak2578]

Facts, totally could have flaked but would've cost bungie dearly. 👀

[@Fire4ward]

Yeah props to Joe 👍

[@apocalypsety2641]

@@panzershreck8077I mean while true, I think he’s being more genuine than that would make him seem. I do think he cares about the game, whether they actually make the game good is a different issue.

I am irrationally angry about Datto not putting the Shaders exactly in the middle of the square

[@ryucloud4800]

you are not alone. it is my only slice of criticism.

[@sonoftanavast1197]

I feel like he did it on purpose just to mess with people

[@artes9222]

Biggest problem is Skillups camera window being cut out wrong at the beginning!!

[@bigschlongdave3771]

I’m irrationally mad at those with darker skin tones than me.

[@azokyn9427]

It’s not in the middle bc the margins between the text and the edge are the same. It would look worse if it was in the middle of the frame

[@bander960]

Joe is willing take the abuse from the worst of the community by himself, stream himself playing the game he's actively leading development on, and star in the videos of content creators, that is such an unbelievably based move for John Bungie.

[@IWearShoes31]

For real such a chad move to also go that extra mile and jump in on Destiny community videos, also that content reveal was huge for me like actually

[@syd6654]

Dude the shader thing is amazing. This is no longer joever

[@dracojay2596]

Is the game any better after him doing all this things? If not, what’s the point?

[@supercato9613]

Joe is what we need, someone who actively plays the game and understands the player base. Thank you Joe

[@helleboreofficial4692]

Joe is based ngl, I enjoy listening to him talk about the game.

[@Quantum_Magnus]

This is why when we talk about Bungie and their negatives, we must remember to separate Bungie Corporate from the actual Bungie game developers working in Destiny.

[@riptidal7213]

A developer who can sit with us and be like “yeah these overload champs are BS”

[@hhaste]

Just wish he would have been around slightly earlier. I feel like he could have helped sway things in the right direction way sooner.

[@Bthakilla4rilla]

Luke Smith played it too, but then look at where the game ended up going under him Do you miss forced double primaries and heavy snipers?

[@deadsparta6600]

Yeah that didn't age well

[@GhostoftheTenthEye]

thoughts today?

[@MalrosJade]

It was never about the game, it's about who i played with and how i spend my time. If the game is ruined over bad news, then I feel bad for how you've surrounded yourself in the hobby. We all need to step back from the situation, in my opinion, if you only played because the game had potential, then what are you really logging on for?

if he ever does I hope it's on good terms, and I will play whatever game he makes next.

Watching this live was amazing, literally no one saw it coming

[@TheValorious]

16:00 Wasn't prepared to hear a QoL update for shaders. Being able to see how the shade in more detail, in game, is going to definitely help people out.

[@Seb_Falkor]

This is exactly the type of stuff a game director of a live game like Destiny needs to be doing. Hell, the game director of a single player game has been the shining example of communication with Doom Eternal and the livestreams Hugo Martin did for months after release. Whether or not this leads to anything doesn't really matter to me, Blackburn just being out there feels good to see.

[@deacon.]

For real, those Hugo Doom streams were so fun and insightful

[@_BELMONT_]

you said it was a dumb idea but it turned out to be really fun. the small amounts of banter is nice from the guests.

[@jordankelsall1036]

joe looks nervous as hell. Respect to the guy. Hard putting yourself front and center if you arnt that type of person to begin with.

[@thelordofcringe]

Dudes an absolute chad. So few people are willing to leave their comfort zone, let alone dive into the abyss like this

[@lukelaws3545]

Joe knows more about the game than people are willing to give him. Hats off to you Joe

[@zombiepie7377]

Except when he has to fight an overload minotaur I guess

[@darklurker898]

This is exactly the kind of content we need. So glad Joe is able to join in on community stuff like this.

[@colincampbell465]

Joe is def a W for the destiny community. Seems like a good dude who actually enjoys the game he makes. Refreshing to see bungie like this

[@hailfastcorexxx]

Please expand on this, get some other D2 creators in on this I absolutely love this idea.

[@DarkDisc1]

Could you imagine Jez?

[@hailfastcorexxx]

@@DarkDisc1would be hilarious I don’t even know if Jeb knows there’s hundreds of shaders in the game.

[@DarkDisc1]

@hailfastcorexxx probably not lol..he'd just say "there's literally HUNDREDS of shaders in the game..couldn't care less...they offend me" Or something to that effect

[@HavingCrumpets]

wouldn't be that interesting, he'd get zero right unless they're pvp shaders@@hailfastcorexxx

[@fulhamboy001]

Gotta say its VERY interesting to see the current game director coming out and saying there were aspects he hated (Y1 Shader stacks)...

[@traviswilliams2348]

Tbf, I don't think a single person liked that shit. Rare community unity moment there when they announced they were changing it.

[@Odysseus123]

It was one of the first things he changed when he became game director.

[@alexshober5114]

I also lost shaders now because of that @@traviswilliams2348

[@bruh-fw7op]

I mean that’s normal. You cannot expect to be installed as a new game director for a video game and like every aspect of the game that was developed before you were hired, unless you were dishonest or the game was perfect.

[@joshuaroman6479]

Not giving points for Amethyst Veil is a wild move

[@seanpierce6267]

There's virtually no purple. A shader having purple is irrelevant.

[@galappy]

maybe my graphical settings or eyes are wrong but I can't find the purple on it until I equip it

[@TheProphets_Blade]

@@seanpierce6267it’s the glow on the shader that is purple

cant wait for him to do this with Jez so that when he asks "literally name this shader" Jez just shouts out Greg

More of this please, So many content creators and devs can participate in this and have fun.

[@strab0r306]

Datto, you put so much effort into these kind of vids and they are fantastic. The production of the overlay and the different rounds, i just want you to know that it doesn't go unnoticed and it is appreciated. This was really fun to watch. I would love to see a series of Destiny trivia. Shaders was great but it could be expanded to anything in the game, weapons, armor ornaments, structures/architecture on maps, the sky's the limit for this concept. Thank you again for the great content.

[@flamingscar5263]

This is why Bungie still holds a close place in my heart What other AAA studio allows their game director of their biggest cash cow to not just interact with the community but actively be a part of it

[@KieronT]

I love how interactive Joe Blackburn is with the community. He is 1 reason why I love Bungie and the D2 Team. He listens to us and guides changes that work for everyone. Thank you, Joe Blackburn. Thank you, Datto, for this amazing game show.

[@blueangels111]

Damn, this just hurts. I first watched this and felt so amazing, destiny was turning a corner from a dark time, and getting to the end of the tunnel. More content from Joe, and just this lighthearted jovial feeling. There was a lot of state of the game conflict, and this seemed to be marking the end of the recession when things would get better. Now its so much worse and everything is just tainted with controversy and anger. It feels like radiation sickness, you start to get better, think things are fine, and then it comes back in for the kill. Thank you datto, this was a fun and wonderful video.

[@ChickenJoe-tq6xd]
