I agree with this post.
Y1 had great things and a lot of BS
Same with Y2-3.
A lot of these players do have a serious case of Nostalgia that makes everything in year 1 seem like perfection. Far from it.
Almost every change to the game PvE, PvP and etc.. we have now is heavily based on all the complaints regarding Y1 problems.
I wouldn't even be surprised if most of these "Y1 players" weren't even around for Y1 and just copy what other people say to prop themselves up.
In my own experience the only reason I feel Y1 was better in some cases was because I bought Destiny to play with my friends. We ran the weekly rituals every single week, played PvP almost everyday. Played the raid and lost many hours of sleep trying to power through Atheon, Crota and Skolas..
Problem is, out of the 20+ friends I had, only 2-3 of them still play. Others left due to work, family, or other games. I had the most fun in Y1 because I had friends on and could get a group together in a matter of seconds.
Now we make a schedule and end up cancelling last minute because someone can't play or other reasons. I love Destiny and will play it until Bungie stops supporting it, but my love for Y1 Destiny is completely Nostalgic. That I loved hearing my friend Matt have a literal Orgasm when he got Gally to drop from Crota on our 20th attempt.. that was the best. lol
