If you have ever touched Destiny, you may have heard of Gjallarhorn It is arguably the best weapon in the game, what with the Rocket Launcher decimating just about anything in PVE encounters.

Destiny can be very poe-faced at times Now, there is the odd line in there giving the tone a little levity and there is a whole button dedicated to dancing so it isn't all the end of the world Besides that though, it's all a pretty serious affair. That wasn't always the plan though In fact,[...]
