I admit that I have a ‘skill issue’.
I’m 58, I’ve had two strokes, I have constant chronic pain and stiffness and I have ADHD. My coordination and reflexes are shot and when my mind wants me to press X on my pad, my fingers decide to press square…
So then I get told to ‘play something easier’…
Which kinda misses the point.
I enjoy gaming. I enjoy Destiny. Yeah, I do find long drawn out processes exhausting. The campaign seems interminable because, you guessed it, ‘skill issue’… I’m doing dumb stuff because mind and body aren’t in sync. And yes, of course it’s going to be more enjoyable if you’re better than me (not hard, I should add) and you know exactly what you’re doing without forgetting where X is on your pad. Oh it’s there, is it?
But there seems to be a genuine lack of understanding on here that some people, for whatever reason, are going to find things tough, and yes, even on ‘normal’ mode. And that just because they do, and might have reasons why, doesn’t make them an object of fun and derision. Unless they’re playing in your team and their playing is affecting your enjoyment, then it’s not something that should be upsetting you, is it?
It’s just someone saying, yeah, I didn’t find that easy, or I haven’t done that because it’s beyond my ability. So, I think people need to be a little more appreciative that we are all at different levels, and that many who openly criticise the ‘skill issue’ (previously known as ‘git gud’) probably weren’t that great themselves when they first started out gaming.
Yeah, I have a ‘skill issue’…
Does anyone else?

Oh, and if you've died in the crucible even once, you can forget the whole thing. Get good.
