Well destiny is a completely new fame unlike any other isn't it? It's not your typical mmo or fps. It's something else, it's something new. It does stuff differently. Not everyone will like it. Destiny is growing and evolving into what it needs to be, sometimes it means you have to say goodbye to old stuff, to bring the game as a whole to another level. This really only applies to pve though, deej is confirmed saying in a post know these very forums in the last 12 hours that he plans to use his shadow price in the crucible still. Cosmo has also warned people against dismantling your old weapons right now. You can be that weirdo crouching in the corner petting their fatebringer calling it your precious and reminiscing on the "good Ole days" of year one. Holding onto the past for too long is unhealthy though, you grew attached to your current weapon, you can grow attached to another one.
