Players are leaving because of ______.

Bungie, I thouroghly enjoy playing Destiny 2. I sadly do not enjoy it because I feel you developed a quality sequel to the 1st title, the only reason I enjoy playing it is because I've always enjoyed grindy, loot based games that reward hard work. That is for the most part gone with this game. Everybody likes getting exotics, don't get me wrong, but they are given out like candy because you would rather reward mediocrity instead of hard work. We are about two months in, and I have gotten 17 out of 19 exotic weapons. One has not dropped for me, and the other I can't get because Activision prefers Sony over Microsoft, but that is a different story for a different time. All that being said, it is my belief that you are losing loyal players in favor of casual players, and that is due in part to the removal of rolled legendary stats on weapons. That was part of the fun in the 1st game was the grind for the god tier weapon. That was also part of the fun in the 1st game was the grind, but you chose instead to reward casual players and make everything the same and easy and straightforward (for the most part) to obtain. This new token system you have developed for the zone specific vendors would be fine if you didn't punish the grind. In what world does a cap on chests and resource nodes seem like a good idea to you? I understand that you are trying to make the game less grindy by forcing players to do activities other than running around and opening chests, but when you create a vendor as stingy and annoying to lis ten to as that triangle faced retard Asher Mir, you have essentially made the game even more grindy by forcing players to spend countless hours in a single area farming patrols, chests, public events, and HVTs because they can't just grab some tokens to speed up the process. I have probably spent 10-15 hours dedicated solely to gathering tokens to turn into Asher for the Gensym Knight set. Now, I am sure that my case of not getting drops that I want boils down to a case of bad luck, but an hour of grinding on Io should yield more than 20ish tokens. Especially when all I'm going to get from that loser are weapons I already have instead of the armor I want or just repeats of set items I already have. I'm not trying to whine or call your game bad. I do enjoy playing it, but I believe you are losing loyal players because you dumbed the game down to reward the average player. Please bring back rolled weapons to allow for some more variety, stop giving out so many damn exotics, bring back the grind and give people a reason to keep playing, and get rid of this stupid farming cap for the love of god. - A dedicated player.
