I've never been able to raid very well because I'm incredibly sensitive to all the chatter in the voice chats. I don't know why it's just how I am.
I have an anxiety attack when everyone's talking at once and I can't follow along. I hyperventilate sometimes. The only thing I was ever good at was the Gauntlet in Leviathan.
Typically I avoid most raids because I don't want to ruin the experience for everyone else.
But I was finally able to complete Dual Destiny. I was so scared that I wasn't capable of doing it. What if my anxiety got in the way. But I did it with a friend I've known for a long time. I just didn't think I could do the call outs correctly. I nearly cried when I completed it.
Thank you for making Dual Destiny.

I can sympathize with you when it comes to raiding. I stopped raiding after players that actually knew less about the raid than I did would rage on me and cause stress in a game that I was trying to have fun playing. It's sad that Bungie has focused the game for a completionist mentality instead of enjoying the journey and experience. They could drop raid weapons in a raid for spending extra time teaching mechanics so that players dont get so frustrated the first time something goes wrong, but they don't. There is also no incentive for veterans to sherpa new or inexperienced players through raids. Congrats on dual destiny. Btw, to make it easier we would stream in discord so that we could see the symbols our teammate were looking at. Makes the run stress free. We need to grow the community through positive experiences; glad you had one.
