I don't see how being a streamer affects your problem-solving skills. The real issue is that 90% of the playerbase didn't want a problem-solving problem in the first place.

  • You don’t see being a streamer with hundreds of people watching you play, all scouring /r/raidsecrets, giving their own conclusions on-screen while you play, affects problem solving skills? Really? It’s the same thing as working out complex mathematical equations on an Apple laptop as opposed to using a super computer. With even 100 people watching your stream, which is incredibly low, the processing power of that 100 people researching sources amd feeding you real time information and new developments from other teams is 100 times more effiecient than a fire team of 3. If you can’t understand that then I dunno what to tell you

  • To each their own but I’d rather be playing the game and shooting bad guys with my friends than being a cog in some machine whose only purpose is to keep me from playing the meat of the game. Destiny isn’t a puzzler. Didn’t ask for puzzles don’t want puzzles.

  • So use their chat for ideas. Spitball it. Join Discords. Having manpower available != streamer.

  • I’m a 34 year old adult male and a single father. I work 70 hours a week. I don’t expect to, not have any desire to be, worlds first in anything video game related. I do, however, expect to have access to content that I’ve paid for, without having to wait for another player to unlock it first. I’m sorry. Maybe I just have totally warped mindset, but I really do find this method of releasing content to be utterly indefensible.

  • So do I (am I'm a 22-yo single male), which's why I wrote: [quote]The real issue is that 90% of the playerbase didn't want a problem-solving problem in the first place.[/quote] It's not worth my time. I don't like that they're trying to appease to the "BUNGIE I SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO FINISH ANYTHING THE FIRST WEEK REE" crowd. Trying to blame it on the streamer boogieman isn't useful though.

  • It's that most players didn't ask for more puzzles combined with the fact that this is an activity that only one team can solve. So effectively if you work a job, have a family or life, you pretty much already know it's not going to be you. So if you had hopes of getting off work and starting the new quest, well best put that idea to rest because your choices are now either wait until someone else solves it, or waste your time trying to jump in on other teams who have an 8 hour head start. It feels very exclusive rather than inclusive just in the way it was done, and is very reminiscent of how the new raids are being released which basically excludes anyone who can't afford every waking moment to playing the game, I.E. they're catering to a very limited group (steamers).

  • I believe they said you can still (or still have to?) do it, even after it's complete. I really hope that isn't the case because this is a bitch that I will never want to do.

  • This Most people don’t have the time for shit like this. They just want to jump on after work and check out the new shit. I’m not even logging on till it’s solved
