I was going to write a wall of text debating your points, but while doing so I came to realize that no one can give you what you're asking. You, like many others, are so entrenched in your desire for year 1 weapons that [i]any[/i] reason stated, will be met with resistance, bias, ignorance. You have lost what these games are really about. Fun, enjoyment, time sink (something to pass time, not grinding) . Your true desire is that feeling you get when you acquire that awesome new weapon. But you don't a [i]new[/i] feeling, you want the [i]old [/i] feeling, from last year. Like a young adult who refuses to grow up, you can't find the joys of what is around you now. For these reasons, nothing anybody says will satisfy you. Only you can satisfy you, by living in the present.

  • Vanilla Destiny gear was all about upgrade paths. They introduced "ascension"-lite in TDB for exotics. [b](Introduced another upgrade path)[/b] Then they introduced Ascension for EVERYTHING in HoW. [b](Introduced another, BETTER upgrade path)[/b] Now, they introduced Infusion for all gear, going forward, yet not previous gear? [b](Introduced one of the most comprehensive "Upgrade Paths" ever, which part of the community somehow uses to supports that gear [i]shouldn't[/i] be upgraded?)[/b]

  • Thank you for the sentiment. I really do appreciate it. As for Bungie telling us about gear obsolescence, perhaps they should have. But would we, as a community, been receptive? Probably not. Genrally speaking, its natural to resist change. We fear the unknown, and cling to the known. Sometimes, the transition is more acceptable when its forced. When we choose change, its hard to accept it because there is always the possibility of going back. When there is no going back, the only way is forward. You are now ready to accept the change and can grow within it. [spoiler]Corny perhaps, but true[/spoiler]

  • The honorable thing to do would have been to explain why obsolescence was necessary as soon as the decision was made. If there's a good reason, I and others would have understood.

  • Others have tried to explain, ad nauseum. But, like I explained to OP, they won't listen. Much like a child who doesn't understand why eating cookies before dinner will spoil his appetite.

  • I explained why those other are [i]mistaken[/i], sir, if you would actually read my post.
