Is it just me, or do others think that there is some surprisingly ugly Guardian gear? In addition to being ugly, some gear pieces have design features which are simply (and stupidly) obsolete, which clearly do not fill a function, and are there just because it was cool to put these design features there. I guess someone at Bungie went like "hey man, lets put three spheres on the right shoulder of the Warlock's Kellbreaker's Gloves, it will look so spacey man!" I'm an architect by profession and one of my philosophies is that function, form and aesthetics must be joined, they need to work together. If you add a design feature which fills no function then it is completely obsolete and needs to go away, there's no need for it. I wish that Bungie could think about this. If they did, their work on the gear would feel more thought-through and more genuine. Some examples of the new HoW gear that displays obsolete design elements is the Warlock's Kellbreaker's Gloves which sports three spheres on the right shoulder of the character. They're just there because they look cool and fill no function. In my opinion, these spheres are dead-ass ugly. Another example is the Titan's Kellslayer's Helm, which has some sort of airplane looking wings. Why are these there and what function do they fill? Anyway, this helm is unbelievably ugly. Another example is the Titan's ACD/0 Feedback Fence, which are indeed nice looking, but I'm really bothered by the fact that the gauntlet's triangular plates pulsate up and down. WHY!? It looks really stupid! What function do the motion of the plates fill? Another example is the Hunter's Khepri’s Sting. Jesus Christ, a bug? A bug on the forearm with its legs in constant motion? It looks just... Stupid! Stupid and thoughtless. Has the design team at Bungie lost its creativity? Have they run out of ideas? Another example which makes one question the creativity of the design team at Bungie are the Dark Below gear and space ships. All that just looks as if Bungie took the old gear and ships and clad them with bone-looking plates and whatnot. What's the point with that? Why not design something from scratch and thoroughly which would look like it comes from the Hive world. Why take something old and re-skin it? It's pointless and thoughtless. Is Bungie lazy? What do you guys and girls think? Makgadigadi
