Nah, he’s right.

The game is designed so that “fun” doesn’t matter. It’s just a checklist of stuff to do every week, and if you don’t do that checklist, you can forget about keeping up and doing the newest, high tier content.

He is right if you only find raids fun. But I would guess that the majority find Destiny fun. I am one of those people who find Destiny fun. I'm not saying there could be some changes to make it better for some people. But y'all are saying we are all on a hamster wheel hoping we can finally get some cheese.

In my situation, it's not that I only find Raids fun, it's just that I find the raids to be a lot of fun. I didn't power level fast enough to play the latest Raid when it launched and as it is, the crew I normally raid with has already moved on and I missed out on my "easy" option for doing the Raid and now have to rely on other ways of organizing a raid.

I totally agree that raids are kinda the pinnacle of the Destiny experience. And it's especially hard when some people can level up fast because they have more time. The same thing happened with my blind raid group when the forge dropped. I just don't think we can blame Bungie for setting a "checklist" of content that we have to drudge through. It's called Destiny, if you only enjoy the raids then maybe you shouldn't be playing Destiny.

So it's just generally frustrating when I fall behind on the grind and miss out on these activities when they're at their peak. Hell I tried to do some Black Armory forges with my dad the other day and we only got a couple people that we ended up matching with over 2 hours... I suppose they've moved on to Gambit Prime/Reckoning.

There has been a lot of "now is the time to play it" especially with the raids. And I agree they need to be more relaxed to let more people play it earlier. As for the forges queue, that's super weird. I've never had that happen before!
