Sooooooo does anyone else find this Niobe labs puzzle thing kinda dumb? Why does bungie think we want to watch streamers figure out a puzzle?
Edit: this twitter thread sums up how I feel.

They call this a community event but it's kind of breaking the community. As soon as most people found out that it'll only take one fireteam, they just left it for the hardcore streamers. That's a lot of pressure Bungie put on them and it's going to suck if the payoff isn't worth it. It also doesn't help that a lot of the streamers don't allow you to chat unless subscribed leaving many unable or unwilling to participate. While those who are subscribers are constantly being told over and over, "we've tried that. You're not helping." So a lot of the community is left twiddling their thumbs waiting. There are so many things wrong with all of this and one big oversight is not mentioning how important the bow, sniper and machine gun are. Not everyone kept every weapon be it because they used them for infusion fuel or just don't enjoy those weapons in general. It literally makes this impossible for those players and that's kind of messed up.
