That article nails it. What particularly struck me was the section on carrots and xur. Like Kirk there are only a few exotics I still really want. Heart of the Praxic Fire, Mask of the Third Man, and Thunderlord. I also want fatebringer and some raid helmets on my titan and warlock. Those are all rng, and with the exotics especially I'm relegated to nightfall and xur every week with little chance of actually getting them, and that's definitely a contributing factor to my own burnout. I don't need rep anymore, I'm almost to where I don't need exp, and I can't really "earn" the things I want since I'm at the mercy of rng. Anyway, great article that really hit the nail on the head. Personally his feelings mirrored mine almost exactly.
