Concerning[b] raids[/b]....question for the group.
Who here has played this game well past a reasonable bedtime, bone tired, but unwilling to quit your raid?
Everyone, I presume.
Why?
-You don't want to miss your drop
-You don't want to let your team down
This is not a healthy game structure. The game's best drops are still only found in six-man long-form activities. If you want to max your level, you'll have to raid several times, dealing with all of the garbage that comes with it:
-Assembling your team of randoms if you don't have the luxury of a clan of unemployed people
-Replacing drop outs
-Getting everyone up to speed on their role
-Wiping a lot
-Then wiping some more
-Then getting your drop but it's garbage so you'll have to play again next week
This gameplay loop is both incredibly time-consuming and super harmful. The raid drops can't even be guaranteed to be good. Why? Because many people play Destiny for the dopamine release that comes with getting an amazing drop. If it was a consistent standard, the feeling wouldn't be there, and people wouldn't stay addicted.[b] The raid is a glorified slot machine. [/b]That's all it is.

Also I find the raid itself enjoyable. Even better when you get a sweet drop.

I raid with my clan from 100io. Members of the clan utilize that website to set up events such as the raid. Everyone who joins the event logs on at the designated time and begins said event. It's super simple and hassle free. Everyone in the clan works or goes to school. Some of us have families. We respect each other's play time show up on time and ready to go.

It's the slot machines in the casinos that are under that brand new 2015 Ford Mustang
