i'm getting at it aint easy to get to level 20...you can get to 10-12 easily, but after that, you gotta start putting in time to get higher....and if you get to 20 fast, that can lead to burning yourself out...
them telling people the game doesnt start till you reach 20 was answering all the people that were asking about end game shyt, nothing to do with the time it took to get to 20....
that farming shyt isnt true, the game is set up so you dont need to do that....the cats that do farm, are trying to cheat the system, when it's not necessary in this game...they give you plenty of shyt just by playing the game....and you unlock better shyt by just playing the game....and i know, cause yea, i've just been playing the game for fun, but i got top notch shyt.....
you do get rep points by doing patrol missions....you get between 10-50 for every mission...and no, it doesnt stop at 6; the bounties for patrol missions only ask for 6, but you can do as many as you want without the bounty...it might not be worth it to you cause destiny isnt the game for you, but the shyt is worth it to people that enjoy the game...
