PC vs. console (Destiny)

But what's the overlap of people who WANT to be in a clan, but wouldn't use Bungie.net? You don't need to visit often to get in the clan...

For me that isn't the pertinent question; the question for me is: what engaging experiences can the game offer to players, and how can that be encouraged? The social aspect of Destiny is pretty key, but the game itself seems to have pretty poorly-developed social-interaction systems built-in. Clans are just one way that you can encourage players to have a good time playing socially, but if you canvassed the average game player on the street they might not realise that.
