I paid $60 I deserve to have access to the entire game

Getting a lot of whiners (I know, what's new) about the MM. And one thing I keep hearing is "Why should I be restricted from part of the game, I have a job, wife, family, school whatever, so it should be changed to ensure I can play. After all I paid just as much as you. Yet none of those people stop to think about the players these raids are designed for. And Bungie has been pretty vocal about wanting to have something for every type of gamer. Creating activities for every mood, or every type of gamer, means not everyone is going to like or be able to do every activity. If you're not the type of person that can schedule a time with 5 other people to tackle the hardest co-op experience in the game, then raids weren't designed for you. And it's extremely selfish and entitled of you to say that the raid Bungie designed for those players should cater to your play style. Want MM co-op dungeion, there will be probably 20 times as many strikes designed just for you than there will be raids designed for raiders. Want PVP, well Bungie has you covered as well. Want story, either lone wolf or co-op, covered. Want to explore every nook and cranny of the different worlds, covered. Between strikes, PVP, nighfall events and other limited time activities that Bungie will be providing, the 1 raid is probably like 5% of the available endgame activities. Someone only interested in PVE and skipping out on PVP is going to be missing much more of the game that someone that isn't able to raid. And since powerful exotics can be obtained in every activity, you aren't going to be out gunned by someone that can raid. TL:DR Creating activities for every mood, or every type of gamer, means not everyone is going to like or be able to do every activity. There's still an abundance of activities designed for you.

  • I guess I am always confused by comments like: "I paid $60 I deserve access to the entire game" Do people really feel that they are being prevented from participating in raids? The ability to group up is there, for everybody. People with clans as well as those without. Just get 5 other like-minded, similarly skilled people with the same goal and group up. Easier for those with a huge friends list but not impossible for the lone wolf either. I myself have, four friends I play with. If we don't join a clan than we will more than likely have to fill those two spots when the time comes to raid. In regards to MM I am having a hard time seeing the opposition to it. Who cares how the group is formed? If you have a group don't use it. It's as simple as that. The more important part is the difficulty of the raid. I don't care if improperly geared or skilled people try to raid. Let them beat their heads against the wall if they so chose it. I just don't want the skill level changed because they can get a group together to raid but cant complete it. It's supposed to be difficult. That was one of the biggest deciding factors for me to quit WoW was the dumbing down of everything. I was ok with not having the best gear out there. I would work my hardest to get it but if I didn't so be it. If the raids are too difficult now wait. Eventually they will add levels/gear and then you can see the content that was "unavailable" to you.
