Yes it is dumb. In fact it is a complete separation of the player base. Niobie labs(or whatever that trash is called) is a big giant puzzle that is hyper complex. So complex infact that people are still trying to figure it out(last i checked). This has essentially given the streamers and no lifers a fun activity to do while we, those other not important people, get to watch other people figure it out so we can do the forge. We literally cannot do anything until the streamers figure out the puzzle so it makes it so one group gets to enjoy themselves while leaving out other players from the fun. Oh and to anyone saying "oh but you can do it to", no i cannot. I am not a puzzle solver. Im not smart enough to understand how these puzzles are done so i have essentially been told by Bungie staff to wait until the real customers finish before i can play. I paid the same amount of money. I gave 110%. But i am a second rate customer to them so i have to sit by and wait to hafe fun. Poorly made trash that only benefits the pockets of high profile streamers aka bungies little -blam!- boys
