I do not agree. 188,000 people is nothing compared to the 10,000,000 people that probably play this game. That's like 1% of the player base. Unfortunately, for most people that strictly do PvP, games like Destiny aren't meant for those types of players. It makes perfect sense that the requirements are mainly PvE oriented. They're actually [i]achievable[/i] for most of the player base. Knowing how messed up the Crucible and Trials is with all the lag problems/lag switchers/DDOS pansies, it would have been a major mistake to make that a requirement. I will say having achieved level 5 Iron Banner would have been an okay requirement. With matchmaking, it is easily attainable for anyone, regardless of skill. If they were going to include winning 100 crucible matches, they should have at least included something complimentary that is also "special" to PvP. I will give you that.
Just imagine how many of those millions of casual gamers that would have flipped their shit if Trials was a requirement. They far outweigh the flawless guys. Trials is hard because it's meant to be. You guys get the [u]only exotic emblem[/u], sweet looking gear and awesome weapons. [i]That[/i] is your triumph.
