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

I guess I've demonstrated that in my responses. Consider this, though. Trials is an end-game activity that I can't participate in successfully. That doesn't bother me at all. I think Trials is super-cool, and I'm very happy that the game has it. I don't consider myself ripped off or some such nonsense just because every pixel in the game isn't available to me.

My 2cents, I don't feel ripped off that there are social spaces and lore that are walled-off from me by an insane skill curve required to get there; but I want a way to access that content without having to watch it on Youtube. The victors get their fancy Trials gear, and I'm grateful that I'm helped along in some way by catching Trials engrams through the Clan system (tanx XBL DBO'ers), but the lore matters to me more. It's nice that we'll apparently all get to experience the Lighthouse in the first D2 DLC, but we're talking a no-skill access delay of like, 3 years.
