Destiny creates working Thorn hand cannon

Destiny Fan Kirby Downey brings the Thorn hand cannon to life with a functional air soft pistol inside

Since it launched Destiny has caught a lot of flak from reviewers and gamers over its lack of content. Bungie has tried to beef up the game’s content with expansions like the upcoming, The Taken King. What Destiny lacks in content, such as raids or strikes, it makes up for with weapons and armor.

Gamers have come to love their Destiny gear so much they have brought it to life with home-made cosplay creations. The way fans have brought armor and weapons to live never ceases to amaze. The only downside is they have to be non-functioning to keep conventions safe; but what about on an air soft range? Player Kirby Downey asked that question and came up with an awesome answer.

He decided to take his cosplay to the next level by crafting a functioning version of fan-favorite hand cannon Thorn. The full-sized pistol is a perfect replica of Thorn with a compartment for a functioning air soft gun. Downey broke down how he created the beast on 3D printing community site MyMiniFactory:

“This is a Converted airsoft version of my thorn which I designed. It is made to be a simple shroud which encases an electric CYMA Glock 18C AEP airsoft pistol… This model has bee scaled to be scale one to one with the thorn model from Bungie. This means its a beast sitting at just over half a meter long!”

Downey reinforced his Thorn replica with metal to protect it from being dropped, a common problem on air soft fields. The drawback to that metal protection is the user has to dismantle the casing to get to the air soft gun. So Thorn won’t be seen in competitive air soft play anytime soon. That doesn’t stop it from being insanely fun to look at or use for target practice.

Hopefully other fan or even Bungie will follow Downey’s example here to start making their own functioning Destiny inspired weapons. In the meantime we can still enjoy this live sized Thorn.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
