[quote]It really depends on what you want out of the game. There's the camp who believes that perks are a waste of time due to them not changing enough to be meaningful. This camp can safely ignore perks regardless of their implementation. I, personally, enjoy the sense of cost /benefit analysis I get to do on gear affinity. There are ways to mix & match affinities to round out weaknesses, and there's much more room for experimentation with combinations across multiple loadouts. Of course, it's impossible to please everyone. But the new system has brought me more depth in my character sheet, and that's worth defending to me.[/quote] Well, technically it is not about what you want out of the game. What you are talking about are the players who ignores armor, not trying to make a build that can't be done with armor 2.0 Furthermore, it's not about pleasing but about making sense with the decision with a motive other than artificial grind. Most of the things in the game designed to get you use your materials armor. So based on what Bungie said, play how you want to is not a reality as you are not supposed to infuse till 950.

Let's agree to disagree. I appreciate your constructive posting and respect for other opinions.

Once you realize it's impossible to have all six stats right where you want them, with the right element, and on armor you like... You will realize how bad it is.

Life is built on compromise.
