Personally, I felt like the dark below was a blunder, that the house of wolves fixed a bunch of things and made old gear fun again and added a much needed layer of customization - so far the 2.0 update seems like a backwards step, but it may need more time to develop. Thoughts?
I was unable to figure out how to add the option for "vanilla" to this poll, so I have created a related topic (see below poll entitled "Destiny's Prime Era UPDATED") at [url]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/153036886/0/0[/url]

I've played since launch, but if I were to look at this from the point of a new comer? 2.0 is definitely the best time. The stories set out as separate quests actually does MORE for the story and trying to have them run together in on long mismatched continuity. Mixing the small side story missions with the relevant DLC story is also a nice touch. You don't have a preconceived notion of how the ghost SHOULD sound so you enjoy the new Nolandroid more (I like it). You have access to a lot more content to play from the get go and if you started at a previous time. And the new fixes in 2.0 (shader and emblem sharing and weapon balance) are a real nice touch.
