It is a game. A GAME. It's meant to be fun, not some personal theater of egos. The notion that the only reason that there are people who don't play at a higher level is your very specific grocery list is absurd, to be kind. Much of it comes down to the fact that not everyone has time to spend 3-6 hours or more a day

You 2 hardcore 4 lyfe bro

Video games were originally created to be fun. Who cares about being a pro? My dad plays games and has ever since Atari came out. He loves first person shooters, especially CoD and Halo. He doesn't always do great, sometimes he is 2 and 10 or 5 and 10, but he has fun. When he does even better than that, he's ecstatic.

Hey kids, don't even think of starting to learn the guitar unless you play like Petrucci straight from the womb.

To each, his own. As someone that isn't very good at FPSs but finds them fun to watch, this is an excellent way to get me to actually play and have fun without dealing with the often toxic fps communities. For me, it is definitely about having fun regardless of whether you think the game is lying to me or not.

Why do you give a shit?

While I agree with that sentiment in real life (when it comes to participation medals, everyone's a winner, you can do whatever you put your mind to, etc.) I don't agree when you're trying to sell a product. If you want to sell to as many people possible, you want to have something for everyone. My dad for example,

omg bro you are SO xXh4RdC0r3Xx

If you are going to the COD series expecting skills will be involved, you are going to have a bad time ...

I used to think like you when I was in college. Now that I have a job and adult responsibilities, I have a lot less time to play games and almost never reach the pro level. Now I value each and every olive branch developers extend to the more casual audience. I'm not asking for the same experience as hardcore

Maybe they are having fun anyways. For a brief period I was almost to the pro gamer level. It was fun. But I had a brain injury and things changed. I can still do great sometimes. But alot of times now I only rank in the middle, sometimes near the bottom. I have fun win or lose because its how games should be. If you

And if you aren't good at it there should be no way for you to have any fun at all. That'll show em!

so basically no REAL level cap increase? Just 2 light levels? Stupid - those of us who can't so raids because we are apparently too dumb to complete them (or just you know have schedules that don't coexist with friends) shouldn't bother with what is essentially 3 story missions and no exp gain?

So am I gonna have to fight my Shadow now or what?

"Which of your songs would you like to hear Adele cover?"

Yea, gender is so overrated in terms of being a factor in voting patterns. It is not. Female-male voting patterns align on race. White males and females vote republican, everyone else votes democrat.

they are saving money on physical discs, and having more time to work on things.

It never bothered me. I find it soothing. Kept it on.

Sometimes I feel that my friends and I live in an alternate dimension outside of Kotaku. Seriously it seems we're the only ones who enjoy Destiny for what it is.

So basically, reading comprehension is a lost art.
