Elitist Players Are The Most Toxic.

After agreeing with a comment on a post talking about game difficulty, I received this delightful message from a fellow player. The legendary player; (name removed as per forum rules) insert "tough guy name" here, with 3 maxed characters, multiple titles, raid & dungeon clears sent me this: "Not sure why y'all think they should cater to the worst players ...instead of you trying to be better like everyone else did Game not hard but most of you don't even try and cry for hand out or ways to get everything solo no mic There's other game for you" I believe they maybe younger than an adult. I replied; "Thanks for that encouraging message. I'm sure your massive ego is tied up in how you play this game & you find no fulfilment in any other aspect of your life. But people like me - who have been playing this game since release - play to have fun, relax, enjoy a moderate challenge. We don't enjoy a stressful, hardcore playing environment designed for no-life, try-hards like yourself. Go play Dark Souls if you want a legendarily hard game." Say what you will about the state of difficulty in the game, personally I would remove all modifiers save for the elemental surges. But to send me a private message telling me to bugger off & go play an easier game is a bit cheeky. The toxicity in this community - from what I can see - is coming from a section of the top 5% of players. The elitist players, who is the only section players Bungie is listening to. That is all.

    I'm not elitist one bit but I'm still toxic as f. I got 2 weeks xbox communications ban recently for calling the French people names. I think they deserved it but that's debatable. As for difficulty I think Destiny is in line with the recent games. Sadly. I played through all the Dark Souls and stuff and did challenge runs on DS2 (it was my baby) back in 2015-2016. Now I'm old and not much of a player but I've done a couple solo dungeons. They are too long imo. The bosses should scale health with the fireteam. Easy solution. Nobody wants to spend almost an hour on a boss just to fall of the map (happened to me). I haven't done many raids but they just seem to get more complicated after another. I remember Y1 I played with regular gamers and it took A LONG time to coach them through Leviathan. The (potential) player base isn't any different from now to then. That's why the raid completions are so low. Have you tried lfg? It's a coin toss. I actually lost 3 real life friends from Destiny because they found this game was getting too hard for them. They quit. Some quit 6 years ago some 3. All previous Destiny 1 players. Not the happiest moment of my life. Btw, wtf is going on with the crucible and gambit matchmaking xD Is it emblem based? Because almost every game I see 1% emblems just because I have one. It's crazy. Or maybe it's only the 1% players playing anymore -_-
