I'm a 31 who never did VoG. Nice to meet you. I've had the game from day one. I do the nightfall and weekly by my self. But I don't play with other players, (outside of my kids) so I don't have "friends" (if you can call them that) on here to do the raids with. Or a set schedule that I can go on some web site and round up a bunch of strangers to play a game with for 2 hours. And I'm not going to apologize for it!

  • This. This right here. I work full time, and I'm a single dad of 4 great kids. I have owned every major gaming system since NES with the exception of the NEO GEO and PS4. Point of fact is that I am an OG gamer through and through. At this point though the real world doesn't allow me to game as much as I'd like. I enjoy Destiny quite a lot. I'm level 30, but I've never done the raid. I've got somewhere around 200 hours in this game though, so the insinuation that I was given anything is ridiculous. Buying a full set of vendor gear would take a month or more of pretty intense playing for most people. That's not giving anything away. Honestly, who wouldn't be good at the raids after doing them a few times. People need to get off of their high horses IMO.

  • You're right. It's not impossible. It is pretty difficult though to set aside several hours for the game, and still have time for anything else. Starting a raid and then having to bail on the team is a far more egregious faux pas I think. I do intend to do the raids at some point. Until then I will keep playing the way I do.

  • Leaving a raid midway is not really that bad. Just say "sorry guys got to go." they will get a replacement in 5 minutes time. And the raids have checkpoints that refresh until Tuesday so just clear one section a day and you golden. Really the raids are best part of the game and whoever has not done them are missing out

  • Quit your job and sale your kids. What do you want from us? Sounds like you need to work on your pull out game

  • Nice try kid. Nothing in the world is more rewarding than children. Not even Destiny. Go upstairs and ask your mom. She'll tell you.

  • Preach on. I'm not a single dad (bless you for the work you're doing, sir), but I a 40 year old, happily married, fully employed father of two teens. I'm a level 30 and I'm never completed the raid. I've done about 2/3 of the VoG, but our team disintegrated when life called half of it away from their consoles. Like you, I've been a gamer since the days of Pong. I'm less than 13 ascendant shards away from hitting level 31 (everything else is completed to fully level my remaining gear). I'm not ashamed.
