I'm glad your experience is different than mine, but (Destiny)

well unless you're getting paid to play I think K/D is secondary to having fun-- otherwise what are you playing for, to rub someone's nose in how good you are? (I mean really, that would be childish, not to mention pointless since no one knows or cares who you are)

Just so we're clear, my use of the K/D stat has absolutely nothing to do with bragging or other people. There's nothing childish about using a stat to mark your own progression.

I don't know about other people, but I typically don't have fun at things I suck at. I'm not having fun if I die a lot more often than I get kills. So, I'm not watching it like a pro, but I'm pretty aware of, at any given time, what my K/D is.
