What a move by Bungie. Smart on their part, actually. Here is why. Announcements of obsolete legendary gear and weapons gave many year one players no reason to continue to "grind". Thus, a reason needed to be found to rekindle lost player interest. What could Bungie do to get players back into Destiny? How about sell the most coveted weapon in the game... AND sell it for 17SC. There you go. This had NOTHING to do with forum crying, it had EVERYTHING to do with player numbers..... just as EVERY decision Bungie has implemented depended on. It is ALL ABOUT THE PLAYER NUMBERS!
