I am happy to continue supporting the development of the Destiny franchise. Currently in a relatively stable beta state, the game has come a long way from the rough alpha we received last fall. Two important updates have brought us to a mostly playable experience, but there's still work to be done before the game officially launches sometime in 2016 (shortly after the last $20 update, and about a month before Destiny 2)! The Taken King update, releasing this September, will unlock more features for early access play-testing. Plus, for sticking it out this long through the development process, year one beta testers will receive a shader (which will probably look hideous, but hey, COLORS!!!), a Sparrow (which will definitely look as super-duper kewl as the EV-30 Tumbler and it's sweet ass FLAMES!!!), and an emblem (emblems are integral to the Destiny experience, because of REASONS!!!) So please, pre-order The Taken King today! The Destiny franchise has a lot of potential, and with our support as a loyal community (which has stuck it out through PvP weapon balancing rampages, raid-breaking bugs, a menagerie of animal errors, a whole solar system of worlds depicted in about 50 ft^2 of playable space, and more social spaces than you would ever care to shake a stick at), we can push this game to launch! May the Light guide your wallets, Guardians!
