Tennocon was pretty okay. The cosplays were cool to see. The professionallotus costume was incredible, movie hero costume quality. The amateur cosplayers were really creative. The kubrow puppet was my favorite, though the "trinity" costume that was just a crab outfit was funny.
Good to hear we're getting a re-work of companions. Sounds like they're going to remove permadeath for companions entirely and let you rez them through in game actions. I assume it'll be killing enemies or apply status or something. They also said there are going to be new mods tomake companions more interactive.
I got the baro ticket months ago so i went and stocked up on cool bling and drippy drip. I almost blew all my credits buying pillars bc i thought they were 100k credits, but actually they were 1million! I bought ten but i farmed the hell out of index last time i had a credit booster just for this so i still had like six million left. I had about 5k ducats saved up from a few months of running void relics a few times every week or two.
I did some dog days. It's a neat idea, but pretty basic. It'd be better as pvp but y'all know how touchy the community is about pvp.
Did the gift of the lotus alert for the umbra forma and also got to rank 29 on nightwave, so i got two umbra forma in one day. Idk what i'm going to do with them. I've been building tons of weapons i never used over the years but there just aren't that many that need the umbra melee mods.some warframes do benefit but health and armor are pretty iffy in these days of shield gating and rolling for i-frames.
Finally got my prisma grakata. Grakata has always been my favorite gun and the prisma is a huge step up. I have utterly ridiculous plans for turning it in to an absolute menace. Using brain storm to fire constantly for as long as I can keep making headshots is reallt fun.
The next story thing looks neat. I won't say anything about it except that it looks like it's moving away from duviri. I really don't understand what they wanted with duviri. I thought they were going to use it to break free from the exponential power creep and have a more challenging game mode but with a handful of decrees you can one-shot all the enemies. My best guess i that it's a tech demo for soulframe. But anyway, looks like we're moving away from it to real plot stuff again.
That's all i've got. Looking forward to another ten years of this bizarre game.
I’ve been away for reason, but it’s nice to hear some things in the pipeline for my eventual return to the game
