‘Destiny 2’ Glitch Lets 12 Players Run 6-Person Raid
Destiny 2 fans are quick to commend the adventure’s “end-game” content and more specifically, the grueling, but highly rewarding fireteam six-player raids.

I first heard about Tell Me Why at the Game Awards this year when it won the “Games for Impact” award at the event.
