For everyone who played the Alpha you know exactly what's going to happen.
For everyone else about to enter the Beta.
Find a game you love if you can. Induce a coma. Freeze yourself. Invent a time machine. Become an astronaught. Take a job at a lighthouse. Goto sea. Explore the amazon forest. Delete this app. Give your computer to your Grandma to keep safe.
Journey to the South or North pole....
Your hell will begin the minute you start scratching at Bungie's servers minutes after the beta finally closes and they show no mercy.
Your games will be dry husks of horrible grinding and lifeless skies.
Pray Netflix gets something you can binge on. Pray your job suddenly becomes a fiery inferno of drama that kills time.
Pray... but it will do you no good. Once you see those blue skies and unlock that green or blue orb.
Once you ground splash your opponents or throw a knife into their heads.
Once you sit on the grass over looking a epic battle between the Fallen and Hive or Cabal and Vex.
It's over.
August you are a bane. A horrible evil that will break many of hope and will.
