Is the Raid too hard? (Destiny)

It is to me. I'm not good at the game, and I like people. This is a bad combination for my raid experience.

While I get the enjoyment out of figuring stuff out, it's far outweighed, in my opinion, by the frustration of making simple mistakes and becoming annoyed with yourself and your team. And, when you understand the encounter and still can't do it? It sucks.

I still plan to try the raid once a week to see if it's easier, but I'm not treating it as a high priority event. Hopefully one day I'll finish it, but I don't expect to do it any time soon.

I think this raid was made for guys like Lukems, or a lot of us here, who really like complicated stuff and challenges, which is totally sensible. That's not my style. Raids are something to do while bullshitting with your friends to me, not a destination in themselves.

I understand why everyone loves this raid. But, if it wasn't for DBO, I would be one of those 60% or whatever who never finished Vault of Glass. And I'm all right with that. I'm not rushing this one. The raid was just designed in a way that is less compatible with my play style, and I'm bad at adapting.
