Shaxx is not good for mental health
As someone with autism, depression, and very low self esteem, I play Destiny, amongst other videogames, so that I feel like I'm accomplishing something, because I excel or am even good at nothing in real life. I loathe PvP content because I've never been an above average player in anything online against other people, so when Destiny quests force me into PvP, I already begin to feel bad. From that, Lord Shaxx's lines (which I can only assume were chosen to be inspirational to make us push harder) really do not help my self esteem or depression and feeling of failure. Yes, I am trying my hardest, I can't play any better than I'm trying to, and yet his voice is always there to remind me I'm a failure and will amount to nothing. I feel like the people of Bungie have completely overlooked the possibility of this happening.

Edited by nextlevelsalty: 9/29/2015 3:00:34 AMIf something as trivial as a video game is affecting you that badly mate, I suggest you get some professional help and take a break for a bit, because it sounds like it's a self perpetuating behaviour and it won't help your condition one bit. Try playing a game that makes you feel good if it gets you down - Destiny can feel very unrewardimg and frustrating at times. Hope you're feeling better.
