The Destiny Twitter Account With the Funniest and Truest Insights

Destiny has been a disappointing game to many players for a number of reasons—many of which we detailed in our 5 out of 10 review of the game. 

At times, Destiny feels like the consummate MMO, but at other times it seems clear that its developers at Bungie fail to grasp the qualities that good MMOs actually good. 

It’s by no means a “bad” game, and does have plenty of redeeming qualities, but Destiny’s endgame remains one of the more problematic elements of the title, which was supposed to tide players over at least until December, when the game’s first expansion is set to launch. 

The grind is by far the worst part of the game, requiring players to rely on RNG (random number generator) rolls to acquire gear that allows them to earn levels beyond level 20. 

To that end, one crafty Twitter user created the Twitter account of @LegendaryEngram, which bears the image of a legendary head-slot engram as its avatar and icon. The Twitter account spouts nothing but truths about Destiny, laden with a host of snarky remarks about the game. 

Here are some of its best contributions to the Twitterverse:

I am $500,000,000 of polish on $5 of story. I am famous voice actors in bit parts. I am hubris made interactive. I am pants.

The best loot farming method is standing still while firing blindly at a cave. No punchline is required. I recognize a joke when I hear it.

I’m saving myself for your teammate that runs into hordes of enemies and requires constant revival.

I am a shader whose bright color scheme undermines the self-serious tone of your guardian's disjointed, hobbled narrative.

I am art direction without humanity. I am plot without characters. I am exposition without interaction. I am a rare level 12 helmet.
