Is it worth buying Destiny? (Destiny)

This isn't really helpful to you in a 'It's better/worse/whatever than it used to be' way... I just wanted to make sure you understood that Kahzgul's anecdote probably applies more to Trials than to regular Crucible. ;)

...Don't you think that's a little bit presumptuous on your part?

I just did a cursory glance over at Kahzgul's service record, and while he plays a fair amount of Trials, there's plenty of Rift, Rumble, salvage, and all other manner of gametypes played in the last couple of months.

I mean, maybe through private conversations with him you've gotten the impression that that's all he plays, but it doesn't seem to be the case...?

It came from some misunderstandings the last time the topic of lag came up; I couldn't understand why his experience was so different than mine, and after some further discussion, it became clear that the biggest difference was that he was playing a lot of Trials, and I wasn't playing any.

I saw another post from him today suggesting that he's played a bunch of other gametypes - but that was posted after my followup.

Yep, it's presumptuous. Yep, I'm probably wrong. And yep, his experience is still significantly different than mine.

Yeah, upon further inspection, it does appear that he plays more Trials than everything else put together, so I totally understand where you were coming from now.
