So....

We know that the civilians watch the crucible.

I started wondering what that looks like.

Cos we obviously see it from person to person, sometimes when we're dead we can follow behind an ally kind of thing, but what does the average civilian see?

It's easy to imagine that they get an overlay and an external view, but I'm not sure about likely camera placement. Drones, easy, but where? Probably some Guardian cams feeds, for specific moments, but those are likely too chaotic and unclear.

Overlay would likely contain a map of the entire arena, like our radar but with a little more detail and markers of Guardians, likely our emblems, maybe with numbers assigned for the match. The little X when we die, like on our radar.

Rise suggested things like the overlay on the ESPN football games, where they mark the down line and project sponsor logos and shit, so we could imagine Tex Mechanica or Omolon symbols cast on walls.

Things like highlights, replays, slow-mo recaps; those intro scenes and player stat screens. Deadliest Guardian, scored the most points, etc.,

Between matches, things like interviews or player profiles, screens showing our ELO with full career and seasonal stats.

Did wonder how much gore is standard. Like if they only show a cleaned up (not clean, but just less brain on the walls) version for civilian feeds. I know everyone has seen it, but still.

Or if there's an actual league with team lists and known players and how far that not-fandom would go, like with trading cards.

Anyway, I had fun with the thought

can you recommend a book about the end of world war one

There are SO many that it kind of depends on what exactly you're interested in reading about: the story of the Armistice and actual end of the war; the negotiations that led to the Treaty of Versailles; an overview of how the world tried to start putting itself back together (and how so much of that "reconstruction" ended up leading to World War II less than 20 years later and many of the conflicts around the world since 1918), and so on. I'll try to give you a suggestion for each of those aspects of the end of the First World War.

Eleventh Month, Eleventh Day, Eleventh Hour: Armistice Day, 1918: World War I and Its Violent Climax by Joseph E. Persico (BOOK | KINDLE | AUDIO) is an excellent look at the military aspect of the end of the war.

Paris 1919: Six Months That Changed the World by Margaret MacMillan (BOOK | KINDLE | AUDIO) is probably the best book about the diplomatic negotiations following the end of the war which, among other things, led to the Treaty of Versailles, carved new boundaries and created new territories in vast parts of the world which led to decades of conflicts that are still being fought today, punished Germany so harshly that it led to the rise of Hitler and the Nazis, and much more.

The Vanquished: Why the First World War Failed to End by Robert Gerwarth (BOOK | KINDLE | AUDIO) is the story of the brutal consequences of the war and diplomatic blunders of the victors which ultimately resulted in scores of governments falling, empires collapsing, dynasties going extinct, economic chaos -- and the aftermath of those disasters.

But my highest recommendation is Charles Emmerson's book Crucible: The Long End of the Great War and the Birth of a New World, 1917-1924 (BOOK | KINDLE | AUDIO), which was published in 2019 and is, without a doubt, the absolute best book I've read in the past 10 years. It's on the short-list of best books I've EVER read. Crucible touches on all the aspects of the end of the war that I mentioned, but does so through the stories of individual people -- mostly notable people, but in a much different manner than normal biographies or history books. It's actually kind of hard to explain the book because it's so original in the amazing way that Emmerson writes, but I don't simply recommend Crucible for someone wanting to read about the end of World War I; I think everyone should check it out. I give a lot of book suggestions, but I don't exaggerate when it comes to praising a book to this extent. It's remarkable and as I've said before, I'm always frustrated that I can't read it for the first time all over again.

Shout out to the person in Destiny Crucible who spammed the crouch button every fight, got taken out by my shatterdive twice, rage quit the match, got put back into the match by matchmaking, and rage quit a second time. Hope you're having a good night 💝🫶💝

How essential is the Crucible to character progression and obtaining gear? I've been playing sporadically for less than a year, but haven't touched it because I distrust PVP communities as a rule. Can a casual wander in and still feel accomplished, or is it a 'git gud' club?

You can honestly play the game normally without ever touching the Crucible. There aren't any essential things in there that you'd desperately need to progress. It can help, because it's extra pinnacle rewards and engrams and stuff, but you can do it without it.

You can definitely play as a casual player, but it will likely be super overwhelming because there are a lot of sweaty pvp players in there in full meta loadouts even in casual playlists. Depending on your luck and the will to keep going, you can probably have a good time, but there will also be absolutely miserable experiences.

Silly playlists like Mayhem should be fine though! Mayhem gives you increased ability recharge so everyone is mostly just throwing supers at each other.

I'd definitely suggest to try it out, but there's no need to force yourself into it if it's not to your liking.

I had some scrap glass from a stained glass project, so I made it into a little Crucible with brass scraps and old paint.
