My absolute favorite bit is that an in-game LFG is incredibly complex, while pretty much every other multiplayer game has this figured out. How totally fucked is their codebase that seemingly every feature is some gargantuan project they can't figure out?

Classic Bungie.

What’s an LFG?

"Looking For Group." Basically signing yourself into a queue to join up with other random players in the queue to complete whatever tasks you want to queue for (like a raid or dungeon).
