... so just like the rest of reddit.
Nah, most of Reddit realizes how shitty Reddit can be. There some subs (especially the political ones) that will never admit it, but the rest of the site understands.
DTG though has different thoughts.
They're apparently top 1% of the playerbase even though the majority hates PvP. I've had people tell me that the one weekly PvP activity should have a PvE alternative. The game should be balanced with only PvE in mind and PvP should deal with whatever that causes. Bungie ruined the game by trying to make it an e-sport, even though anybody who knows a thing about Bungie knows they've always hated e-sports.
They're 1% players even though a ton of them haven't completed the raid or struggle to get it done once a week. They absolutely despise the NF timer because even if it takes 7 hours to do the strike, they should be able to do it at their pace and get end game rewards. Won't even attempt Prestige content. Already seeing the popular opinion become that the Prestige raid isn't worth doing because increased difficulty isn't worth it for no special gear.
So apparently bitching about the game for hours every day makes you a top 1% player. Man I got a kick out of seeing the wake up call they got when D1 went to skill based matchmaking and showed them that they were bad at PvP.
But that's all fine. It's typical of gamers to be entitled and think they're better than they are at the game. No what bothers me about the sub is that they take the good of others and apply it to themselves to say "Destiny has such a great community."
Twitch streamers put on a charity stream every year and raise 7 figures. That's being a good community. Reddit is not part of that.
Plenty of people in the community teach people to Raid or carry them through Trials for absolutely no money. They're good people. That's not Reddit. Hell, Reddit's opinion is that being a Guide isn't worth it because you don't get extra loot.
It's like if somebody on JSP got a doctorate and everybody said "JSP is full of intellectuals!" No, that dude's smart, you're just a jerkoff.
