Is the Raid too hard? (Destiny)

by red robber , Crawfish Country, Tuesday, September 29, 2015, 03:13 (3437 days ago) @ cheapLEY

I wonder if it would be better to have more smaller raids with more frequency, than wait for a single large Raid as we did with going from TDB to King's Fall. I don't think Prison of Elders was a great substitute for a Raid despite having raid like mechanics. Skolas felt more like lesson in tedious bullet sponge boss time.

If we could get a Raid for every new expansion that was closer to 8-10 hours long for an average group on the first go round on normal, I think I would prefer that over waiting 9ish months for one big one. I would also prefer a smaller time commitment as well. I think this would make it easier for everyone to go in blind and finish with the same team, which is something many of us desire.

Having said that, I'm totally happy with what we have. This raid is amazing in so many ways. It looks great, has crazy puzzles, is begging to be explored, tricky bosses that require strat and teamwork, and it will be great for those who desire to perfect techniques.
