Wow those are some amazing and sweeping changes to so many of the current pain points of the game. I'm excited to see all the new armor and especially the new weapon foundries. I do hope they add more armor sets though that are preferably better looking than the ones we have now. I'm excited about the changes to the leveling system being decoupled from our armor and being tied to our characters instead (which makes more sense). Shaders & emblems no longer part of inventory?! Finally! Combining crucible and vanguard marks into one currency?! Thank you! Duplicate or trash legendaries being used to upgrade other weapons? Brilliant! It's very rare to see a game developer make such huge and difficult changes to their major game systems this early after a game launch (relatively for me being a PC MMO gamer). I just hope they'll give us some way to revisit the old quest lines for our old subclasses without having reroll our characters. I must say as cautious as I am about game developers over promising things especially with new expansions, I can't help but feel ecstatic about TTK now! Sept. can't arrive soon enough! Yup I'm slowly turning into a Bungie fanboy if they manage to deliver on all that's promised here :D Here's a good follow up analysis article as well: http://planetdestiny.com/taken-king-gameinformer-review/
