Welcome back to another edition of Saber News Stories. We hope everyone had a great time during the holiday's and a happy New Year's as well. I am sorry that it has been a few weeks since my last Saber News but I was on vacation with the family. Well in this week's edition we have on our agenda, a Poll, we will talk a little about our Overlord Masters Christmas gifts to us peasants, and finally for those of you gun enthusiasts we have a product that just Golden. [b]Is Destiny Dead or Dying?[/b] We have created a poll asking the questions, is Destiny dead or dying or do you think it is still going strong? Now many of you have probably been playing other games such as COD or Dying Light simply because you have pretty much done everything on Destiny and feel it is beginning to get stale. I partially agree that the content is getting slightly stale and the only thing that is keeping me going is still trying to finally reach 320 on three different characters none of which are 320 yet. The fact that Bungie has taken away from the grind for the most part for those who are just starting out has actually upset most players. This is because while Year 1 vets had to grind to become where they are level wise, newcomers are given the option to pay money to be instantly leveled up to 25 skipping a big part of the grind. On top of micro-transactions for content that is supposed to pay for small DLC's throughout the year, Guardians are not taking this style very lightly which has caused many to leave Destiny for other games. So we ask you, do you feel Destiny is dead or that it is dying? If not, do you think it is just fine but could use some work? Feel free to give feedback on ways it could be better or improved. [b]Strange Overlord Gifts[/b] Many Guardians were curious to figure out what our Overlord Masters at Bungie were going to give us for Christmas. Well we found out and boy was it great (said with a sarcastic tone). What did we receive, well have yet to receive anyways. A whopping 15 Strange Coins, 15 Motes of Light, and an unlisted Emblem. I guess this gift is better than last years that ended up being a single package that turned into a Legendary item that was quickly dismantled by many. Now the Strange Coins I don’t mind because those aren't as easy to farm for as Motes are. Many Guardians were not impressed with this gift and simply just brushed it off however there are some who are curious about the Emblem, myself included but I'm not holding out hope that it will be some badass Emblem though. Maybe the next gift they give us will be better, probably not but we will see. Now onto our final segment before announcements. [b]Something Golden for you Gun Enthusiasts [/b] Are you a gun enthusiast who has a real admiration for firepower and elegant weaponry? Well we have a treat for you today. Allow me to introduce the Beretta .50 Cal Gold Series Hand Cannon. This gun fires at 50 rounds per second holding a 20 round clip. This gun has amazing stability in experienced hands with minor recoil for a .50 Caliber. It comes with two style options one of which being extremely expensive while the other is quite affordable. The first style is a pure Gold frame with pure Gold magazine and the second style is simply Gold plating for both the frame and magazine. Now here is the fun part, the ammunition is no ordinary .50 Caliber rounds…. Oh no…. These bad boys are specially made explosive rounds that are similar in looks to tracer rounds when fired but with a brighter flame stream as well as destruction on impact. These hit with more force than hollow point rounds and do a hell of a lot more damage. Also they cause any target they hit to combust causing damage to any target within a five foot radius of the original target. So great for military purpose but also fun for recreational use. I myself have bought one that I use to get rid of those pesky Shanks and Thrall in the yard. Sale price for the pure Gold comes to around $7,599.99 first pack of 50 rounds free. Sale price for the Gold plating comes to around $899.99 first 50 rounds free as well. [b]Announcements [/b] Our first announcement, I have been creating little rhyme posts on the side 2 of which have actually gained a bit of popularity and I will post the 3 that I have created for you to read at your leisure. Our second announcement, this week's Saber News was not the best because I am still partially sick but I did not want to take off any more week's so I hope you at least enjoyed this one. And now our final announcement, if you enjoy the products that I randomly create, I am happy and definitely am willing to take suggestions for new products. Well that’s all for this week's Saber News Stories don’t forget to check out our elder brother station Unofficial Weekly Update anchored by MurdiusMaximus. Remember you heard it first from your friendly neighborhood Sabertooth Tiger. Here is my Rhyme work that was popular.

The one saying that it is fine but could use some work was my destiny is not dead poll answer.
