Passionate Anti-cheese Forum Post Titled: "Lactose Intolerant"

So I just wanted to talk about this while I'm at work hiding from the manager. Last night my roommate and I wanted to do Crota's end. He had never done it before, and he needed radiant shards because he had gotten some gauntlets from someone who cheesed the first part for him. Cheesing is essentially where you use glitches, or take shortcuts, or use cheap strategies (for lack of a better word) to get past difficult points in the game. In my opinion, cheesing is boring and defeats the entire point of the game. When we got a group together off of the LFG we started up the raid and got the first chest. Then the leader proceeded to sneak past everything using invisibility and completed the first segment while the rest of us were waiting to be revived. Being a gamer, I like shooting things, I like facing hordes of enemies while working as part of a team to get from point A to point B. I do NOT like dying and sitting waiting for someone to play the game for me. That's boring as -blam!-!!! I wanted to show my roommate how intense it is having to run to each of the glowy lamps to get the weight of darkness off before the lamp explodes and kills you. I wanted to fight the final horde of hive, and the ogres while waiting for the bridge to form then getting the -blam!- out of Dodge! That's FUN! When I go online to get a bunch of people together to do a raid, I WANT it to be hard as -blam!-, I WANT to struggle and put everything I have into completing the raid! That's FUN to me. When we got to the bridge segment I was already irritated about the last part. Then the guy was like "okay step on the center plate, then get off and immediately jump off the edge." I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT HEROES SAVE THE WORLD BY JUMPING OF A CLIFF!!! THIS IS NEW TO ME! After that we left and did the weekly heroic strike. I didn't pay sixty bucks to jump off cliffs and let the game be played for me. I want to fight a bunch of scary monsters and strategically complete objectives with a bunch of people. I detest cheesing and from now on when I post on the lfg, I'm going to preface each post with "NO CHEESE RUN IM LACTOSE INTOLERANT" We should totally make "lactose intolerant" a thing when wanted to do no cheese runs. So that's it. I just wanted to type that up to pass the time. Hope you enjoyed! Please HMU if you wanna do some lactose intolerant raids. Buh bye.

  • This girl once told me her husband couldn't eat steak because he was lactose intolerant. I guess her line of reasoning was since it came from a cow...

    • I agree. I just recently got the dark below and I was looking on the forums for a team to help me through the raid my first time. One of them suggested cheesing most of the areas but a guy that was sort of our leader throughout the raid told him that we would do it legit so I could experience the raid the right way. Once we played through the raid and finished it a few days later the reset came and I found another group but these guys were all towards cheesing it. I've never been dead for so long in my entire time playing destiny. I had more fun doing it legitimately than cheesing it. Even if I did die a lot more at least I wasn't dead for long.

    • Rather save time than do something legit if I don't have to. I've done everything in this game legit as well as used cheeses. Save time.

      • But you're cool with being paid to mess around on forums when you're supposed to be working

        • While I totally understand your point and get where your coming from, your first part about traversing through the thrall and not being revived is stupid. Unless you are running the strategy where warlocks walk up much later than everyone else and revive everyone (which is cheesy) then if you die during the lamp run, then you are dead. Because going back or waiting around for the revive just does not work. If you cant make it through then be happy that someone on your team has done, and by the way there is absolutely nothing wrong or cheesy about using the invisible perk to get through the lamps. jumping on the rock at the end, yea is a bit cheesy, but not using invisibility through the thrall is dumb. The bridge part, yea, its been soooo long since I have that part legitimate. Only because everyone else wants to cheese it and get it down, it is far quicker and less effort. Dont get me wrong I actually really enjoy doing it the legitimate way, its way more intense

          Understandable. Though I wouldn't call the abyss cheesing, everything else is valid. Don't hide at work though and write on the forums. If I were your manager and caught you cheesing your way through work, I'd have you on gross misconduct. Be careful sunshine.

          • I agree with not cheesing bridge, but soloing lamps isn't a cheese in any form. The abyss is an every man for himself section, if you die, too bad. The rest of the group has to keep moving or they'll get swarmed. You can move together and work together the entire way, but if someone dies there's nothing to be done about it. Except on normal, but even then if you die on normal abyss.... Well I don't see where reviving you pays off.

            • Just to be clear, a hunter using his invisibility is cheesing to you?
