There's nothing bad about this at all, your gonna have to acquire your new gear through this prison of elders, which is still gonna be enjoyable. The prison of elders mechanics will probably be less glitchy than a raid hence why they went in that direction, your only gonna have to search destiny forums/Lfg for 3 people now, might even be matchmaking who knows! You people are too quick to judge give bungie a break for -blam!- sake, all I see is dummies/pacifiers everywhere cause you -blam!-ers spit them straight out the pram! If your hating on bungie that much please just -blam!- off, you paid for the game and most like you will still be here may 19th! The playability in this game is huge, and if you think this game is dead then quite frankly you should go to the opticians cause your blind as -blam!-, Just go and buy cod and then buy a whole lot of dlc then you'll see where the real problems lie. Have a little faith man..
