I can't tell you the countless times I've been told while running someone from the community through the raid that they have [i]never[/i] done it legit. That if they die during the lamps. Their party has told them. "Just stay dead it's fine ". That they were excited to play with us to see how the raid was supposed to be played. To learn the encounters. The mechanics.
Why learn the mechanics and do it legit? [b]VIDEO GAMES ARE FUN[/b]
People forget. They are here for fun. Not so much the loot. But for [i]fun[/i]. By cheesing every encounter. You ruin it for yourself. And the people you are with. Cheese tactics are ruining a game that already needs a lot of love.
Look. I understand if you want to cheese a bullet sponge [i](valus ta'aurc[/i]) fight by finding a spot to sit and fill the boss with bullets. Because those fights aren't even fun.
But the raids ? [i]the raids are the best pve content in the game[/i]!!! So [u]why[/u] would you want to skip it?
People are so greedy about the loot or they say they "don't have time you don't understand" or any number of bullshit. My only answer to that? [b]too bad[/b].
If you [i]cant[/i] do it. That's not an excuse to cheat. You will never justify pulling your cable to make Crota kneel. The other stuff? Clever yes. But again. Why even bother playing the game ?
Why do people do this to themselves? What happened to that moment of victory. And satisfaction from defeating a challenge? Stop demanding a handout.
I'm not telling you how to play. Simply suggesting you play the -blam!-ing game you paid for. [i]Have Fun[/i]. What a novel idea.
TLDR: I simply want to know WHY people don't play the raid for fun. Is loot all you care about? is it all that matters? would you rather just log in go to the tower and have all the raid gear waiting in the post master? Why don't people play the raids for the content? what do you do WITH the raid loot? It just doesn't make sense to me. How is just getting the drops fun?

Getting new gear can be fun in and of itself and like a lot of people are saying cheesing can be fun. Ive done the raid both ways. First time I cheesed Crota I grabbed the sword and R2ed him until he was done and it was fun and funny as hell. I think the bigger question here is why do people need everyone to conform to their version of fun? I know you've said you want people to explain why something is fun but a lot of things in life it just is. Theres no rhyme or reason. Better yet why does anyone need to justify their fun to you? I haven't seen any threads where people are complaining about why people who only do things legit find it fun. They may be out there but I haven't seen em. Let people play how they want. If Bungie fixes it then its fixed. Why prattle on about it? If anything you should be thanking cheesers for exposing the glitches before everyone is running around with HM weapons/Necrochasm.
