In the MMO Destiny one needs luck, luck, and more luck to rise through the coveted light levels. The legendary engrams, which are so desired, sometimes help, but not always. Effort and rewards are not always proportional in Destiny. This will now be the target of a parody on Twitter.
After level 20, one needs light items in Destiny to progress further. Players primarily focus on legendary engrams. These can be found in the game, but when they drop, players don’t quite know what to expect: Is it the great item that is still missing, the one that perfectly fits their Guardian? Umm… mostly not.
With some effort, the engrams can be decoded. Often, they yield items that no one needs. The effort and benefit just don’t seem to align in a loot-and-shoot principle. Otherwise, everyone would be done after a few weeks.
The Twitter account “Legendary Engram” deals with these and other “difficulties” in Destiny.
From the perspective of various drops, it pokes fun at Destiny and lightly mocks the unfortunate players:
- “Congratulations on completing the weekly Heroic Strike. I only found out about it later because I dropped completely elsewhere!”
- “Lilac engram, single, seeks tall and competent Titan to disappoint him.”
- In reference to Oppenheimer after the atomic bomb, it even becomes melodramatic: “Now I have become Engram, the Destroyer of Hope.”
- “Oh, you wanted light armor? I heard light armor! So that’s the problem.”
- “I don’t understand your disappointment at all. Blue looks so good with your eyes.”
For these jokes, the Twitter account often assumes the role of legendary engrams that turn out to be useless green items instead.
We think: Better than that horse account, for sure!
