Non-raiders often seem unable to "get" raiding (Destiny)

There's a distinct lack of some people just realizing that, "Oh, maybe this thing isn't for me."

Bungie invites everyone to buy their game. Everyone. Marketing pitches their ideas to everyone. Everyone goes for the bait but then here comes the switch. Oh, you didn't know you have to be really good, have lots of friends and huge blocks of organized time to play the extensive end-game product?

I like the game yet I see the problems. Bungie knows there are problems too but their solutions simply aren't going to include the numbers they're looking for. They've built an excellent and very difficult game with demanding social interactions. The skill and social bars can be very high and exclusive. I think, too high.
