Sooooooo does anyone else find this Niobe labs puzzle thing kinda dumb? Why does bungie think we want to watch streamers figure out a puzzle?
Edit: this twitter thread sums up how I feel.

Edit 3: from Mayhem420 in this discussion:
The last forge will be available at 2PM PST based on bungies twitter

Ehh... Shattered Throne here I come again.
-
It’s not like streamers are some geniuses and only they can solve it. Stop crying and try it yourself
-
Maybe instead of watching get off your ass and do something to help ?
-
Once again the Destiny community proves they're the biggest crybabies on the internet.
-
This puzzle doesn’t compare to the puzzles from adventure games from the late 90’s. As long as it’s not that level it’s all gravy.
-
I think it’s fascinating. Something I want to do? Probably not but seeing people try to figure it out to unlock content for all of us? Great idea
-
Puzzles in this game are actually usually quite good. Raids are all puzzles, whisper was kinda a puzzle, the outbreak prime mission.
-
I didn’t realise streamers were the only ones with access to the content.
-
The replies on this thread are ridiculous. Game too hard? Boo hoo.
-
Nobody is forcing you to watch streamers live do anything...
-
Nah man this is what makes destiny awesome
-
Well, it has 70k viewers at the moment. Top 10 on Twitch. Oh I forgot, the forums apparently hate streamers. Imagine hating on streamers...,.
-
You don’t have to watch streamers. The point is to get the whole community together to overcome a challenge. The Reddit community had it solved in a couple of hours, so it wouldn’t exactly be a challenge if it was any easier.
-
No ones making you watch streamers. If you want to do it yourself, go do it yourself.
-
This entire thread is sad. If you don't like a puzzle then deal with it. Lots of games have puzzles and I dont understand why people are surprised. If you dont want to wait for or watch or a streamer do it, try for yourself instead of complaining. I can understand the fact that another person completing it unlocks it for everyone is annoying. That makes sense. The rest honestly doesn't. What have gamers and more specifically this community turned into? Its sad.
-
LOL, Laymen Gaming is going to have a field day with this one.
-
Streamers are even getting frustrated and mad now.
-
Why would anyone think putting core gameplay content behind a puzzle like this is a good idea? Like "oh there's a new forge, but it's locked behind this until someone solves the puzzle" what works for a hidden quest like Whisper or the real world Javelin replica really doesn't work for something like this.
-
bad crazy puzzle
-
Oh....well I guess I won’t play until some streamer figures it out. Back to The Surge...just picked this game up for cheap...pretty freakin’ good.
-
Is so shit
-
I'll take dungeons, for $200.
-
Has someone finished it yet so i can actually play the game?
-
Or perhaps brilliant. [spoiler]Nah, it's dumb.[/spoiler]
-
It really should have been a dungeon
