Ok, serious question. ... Can someone tell me exactly what charm or enjoyment they see in this game? I've been trying to figure out how this mmo basketball game has fooled people into thinking its good.

Oh damn I missed the ending. Archive should still make for good background noise!
First time clearing the raid, it took me about 7 hours across 2 sessions. Around 4 beating the first 3 encounters including going back and forth through the hub area, and 3 just to beat the boss.
That boss is a fucker.
Of course, that wasn't a blind run. But based on what happened with the gauntlet, which they pretty much almost figured out on their own within an hour, it doesn't seem like them knowing what to do matters as much in how long they take!

you underestimate the power of loot and collecting said loot with friends

It's a standard loot shooter where the movement and gunplay have a ton of polish and ends up being pretty satisfying. It's one of those 7/10 games that's decent to throw on during a podcast or something.
Nothing about this raid (at least, this specific one) is what people actually enjoy about Destiny.
The chemical hit when you get a yellow is addicting.
They could go all weekend, but I really don't see them doing the Pleasure Gardens or Calus.
Hopefully they call it after the Baths
Have they ever given up on a series before?

Maybe this raid stream is secretly a new Bring your B game
Which one? I actually can't think of anything off thr top of my head?

many times.
Betting the farmville, the running of the lanterns, Thursday Night Throwdown, Professional Wednesday, random PC game, (probably) bring your own B game, and (probably) choose our own adventure.

Abby said it best when she's enjoying playing this game with her friends. It doesn't hurt that the shooting feels good.

Brad the most experienced with only 3 kills.
Still waiting for that D&D game to finish.
Just how will Dan get revenge on Brad for pickpocketing him?

What was that video series Vinny wanted to do about the games they played that weren't good enough for a proper QL? Blight Club?
Kingdom Heartache isn't finished.
I imagine people into Watersports say the same thing.

I would have said bring your b game but they just renewed the series today.
Yes but Alex

In all seriousness I would really like them to beat the raid just for their reaction to the ending because it's actually cool as hell.
To those who beat the raids in the expansions to D1, do those have as wild an ending as this one's?

Ah that was it. Blight Club was Alex's thing.

Don't forget the No-Go Show, the Powerbombcast, the Old Games Show, Flight Club, Blight Club, I Love Mondays, Danswers, Box Office Bomb, and Bomb After Reading!
Nope. Barely have an ending at all.

Blight club can't be dead when it was never alive.

the canceled series list is really bumming me out, even more so than watching Destiny 2 being played...
Man, Old Games Show was so fun

Not to mentions playthroughs they started but abandoned like Toonstruck and Noctropolis and Blade Runner and The Ripper.

So the solution is to... stand in one place.

They've explained 100 times that it's because Jason is the only producer they have right now.

Jeff's said that it's on hold until they get another producer, and with Ben on the crew I wouldn't be surprised if they prioritize it once that happens.
I had to do it.
best thing to come out of the raid
As some one with no familiarity with the first game, I thought this would be much more like Diablo and Path of Exile than FFXIV and WoW. I was planning to jump in with my brothers when the PC version hit but I'm having 2nd thoughts. We stopped playing MMOs and MOBAs to get away from this kind of frustration.
I'm thankful for this long-look for letting me know.
