I can't connect with some viewpoints. :( (Destiny)

I can understand the guy at the top. He is the same as many of us who don't play Crucible except for iron banner or Trials, when there is a perceived benefit. That ain't me, but I get it.

I also understand the guy at the bottom. He just plays to kill time and he likes stuff easy.

I identify with him. I signed up for the casual raid yesterday hoping it would be casual. We did the Golgoroth challenge, and did hard mode Oryx, where, for specialization's sake, I couldn't do the job I liked and did a different job. I was about 30% irritated for the entire raid because we did, bar none, the hardest stuff in the game. I didn't sign up for none of this hard stuff. I'm there to kill time while I chat with my friends. Somewhere after it ended I realized I was just being a butthead, but I understand how that guy feels.

What I don't understand is why he is upset about it in the way he is. If a video game took off the "kindergarten" difficulty or something, yeah, I get it. This is MULTIPLAYER. He seems to want the game to only be easy for him, and he either doesnt realize or doesn't care that he put it on hard mode for the other players.

I don't know man. Maybe they aren't even upset. For example, I make a lot of jokes referencing apparent inconsistencies with Bungie's choices involving Destiny, and I complain a bit while I play. But to me, it's like if someone made me the best oatmeal cookies on the planet (my fave), but then threw cranberries in. I'd probably bring up the cranberries a lot. Like why would you make bomb ass cookies and then put in CRANBERRIES?!

They might just be saying stuff to say stuff.
