That first raid video is terrible (Destiny)

Is the video a joke that I don't get?

I thought the same thing for the first thirty seconds when I saw it a few days ago, but I think it really depends on how you look at it. If you imagine that you're watching it on a VHS and the characters are 12 years old, it has more of a nostalgic tone. The bad effects and (relatively) low effort make it more endearing in a way.

Think about it less like it's a group of adults making a short film and more like a handful of neighborhood kids acting out a video game in the trees in their backyard.
