[quote]Fair enough I agree up until this latest release with the age of Triumph when they let us go back to the vog and crota and get our equipment back I was pretty pissed off myself[/quote] That's the thing. I was tempted to come back too, but then I thought about it a bit deeper. I'd have to spend $30.00 to buy RoI just to play it. Then the gear we'd be getting isn't the gear we used to have in Y1. Sure, VoC may say VoC, it may even have solar burn. Fatebringer may have Arc Burn and all the perks it had back in Y1 when it was everyone's favorite HC. But they AREN'T the weapons that we loved back in Y1. They've been destroyed by making them exotic or having their burns removed, through PVP nerfs that effect PVP, and the watering down of our weaponry in general since Y1 launched. All they're really providing is a taste of the glory days we USED to have in Y1 that they should never have abandoned in the first place. I know it worked for some and a lot of players who used to play went back just to play AoT. But it just wasn't worth it to me. Especially considering that nothing you do from here on out is going to impact your experience in D2. Nothing's carrying forward.

  • I agree with everything that you've said except for that I regret it not pre-ordering the first destiny. I was pretty burn when we couldn't continue level in our gear along with ourselves and that really pissed me off with DJ said what do you want to keep the same weapons for 10 years and I said fact yes I do want to keep the same weapon for 10 years got damn it

  • [quote]I agree with everything that you've said except for that I regret it not pre-ordering the first destiny[/quote] Honestly, your probably the first person I've ever heard utter those words. I pre-ordered Destiny 1 Vanilla and while I won't say that I regretted it, I will say that the game didn't quite meet my expectations. The game was flawed for sure. But they did some great things on a foundational level that made the game a TON of fun and addicting to play in spite of its flaws. Then they completely abandoned the foundation, tore it apart, and rebuilt it in Y2 and the game has been terrible ever since IMO.

I wish what they did was make all guns Exclusive to those who found those guns during that particular year/era so that they were permanently unobtainable, but always relevant. This would mean that by Y10, my fatebringer, patience/time, etc. would buy me huge bragging rights that I could show off with pride - because I was there during Y1 and I struggled and I got a ton of great loot along the way. But instead, this game has gone the way of having less exclusivity, less limited-time items to earn, and has gone more towards normalizing the game's best loot so that no special snowflake feels left out. Not only did this make the game boring and pointless, but it took away the entire point of the game: the grind to get elite tier, top end loot. I was totally dissatisfied with the game Chrismas of 2015, but kept playing to play with friends and because the content was free. I wasn't going to pay more money for more of the same.
