You cruciable players (Destiny)

I seriously don't know how you do it. Two games and I have to take a break just to steady my nerves. My blood sugar starts to crash, my jaw aches, my tremors kick into overdrive (I'm being good and going back to edit everything just so you can read it) and I realize that, oh yeah, I'd forgotten to breathe again. That explains the tunnel vision nicely.

One would think that I'd do better now that I'm using The Last Word and my k/d ratio is now only sorta pathetic instead of completely abysmal. I mean, at my current rate, I should be able to finish A Request from Ikora's cruciable bounty in two more matches, maybe three, so I must be doing better, right?

In a way, surviving longer and playing better only makes it worse. I have fewer respawns to force myself to calm down and relax. The better that I do, the stronger the desire to mash that respawn button the moment it comes up. I'm actually contributing to the team instead of being the guy who really should not be playing at all, so now there's a drive that only makes things worse.

I don't get it. I didn't have these problems with Halo or Battlefield. At least, not for a long, long time. So why is Destiny's MP putting me through the wringer? I don't know, but I'll tell you one thing -- I have newfound respect for you people who rock it.
