I don't care about those people, I care about the fans of the game (as a head of Bungie). I'm not here to satisfy those ungrateful, elitist players, the point is people would have been glad to get an exotic. I think that outcome is better, the majority of people being happy because of the exotic holiday surprise compared to the majority of people being upset with some lackluster legendary. If the only con to giving away an exotic is the forums being flooded by the worst of gamers (which it already is) then I see no issue.

Obviously you do care (hypothetically as the head of bungie). You do because you're trying to "make more people happy" by giving out a better gift. You're contradicting yourself by saying you don't want to cater to anyone yet you want to please the masses or [i]majority[/i] of players with a better reward. My point is that this is a [b]gift[/b]. It is a token of appreciation. People who take a token of appreciation, spit on it and show nothing but disgust for whoever provided it, in my mind, don't deserve anything in the first place. I don't give a shit if the token of appreciation was just a note that said "Happy Holidays". It is Bungie telling us "thank you for playing". The lack of respect on these forums is appalling and goes to show exactly what is wrong with the world. And you, who says "a legendary isn't good enough, it should've been an Exotic" are just adding fuel to the fire. Perhaps without even realizing it. Which is just sad...

Okay, I'll use a different expression then. Those ungrateful, elitist players can deal with it. The same could be said for the people who are mad about the legendaries, but as you said, I'm trying to please the most people possible.
