You forget to realize that in 90% of situations you'll just use your old gear. Which is not want they want. The change is probably one of the best things they can do for the game right now.

    Your own statement should tell you something. To me it says that they lack enough creativity to create new weapons that are just as good or better. Everyone talks fatebringer. A lot of people used in PVE. Especially recently. Why? Because HoW was mostly Fallen enemies. It was effective. Honestly, fatebringer was way overrated. Good all around weapon but by no means a "one and done" gun. People liked it. So what? I used to rock Word of Crota for a lot of stuff too. Yet you never hear anyone complaining about it. I laugh at those who say Vision was OP too. It's all silly. The argument made against ascension could easily be flipped the other way and allow them to be relevant. If the new stuff is really that good, then people won't use the old stuff but to force them out of it should raise plenty of red flags. This game is about collecting things. Even the most die hard fanboys will eventually get bored of collecting stuff that'll become irrelevant each year. Or worse, the rumored "full character reset" for Destiny2 or whatever they call the "true sequel" they occasionally chatter about. The terminology should worry anyone who thought "ten year game" meant an ongoing relevant character and universe as was implied early on. Just look at the track record.

  • No FB is literally the best pound for pound PvE primary weapon. -Best damage -High mag -Vastly rewarded for head shotting -Good range -Best burn game Hardly any point in the game am I ever like "use another gun except FB" unless its a burn. Another thing Bungie has already tried to make better guns and ended up pretty much just copying every good gun in the game. That's the thing you do not get better then this gun. It is damn near the holy grail of a PvE master race weapon. At this point if you make another hand cannon better then this you have gone to far. HoW is full of Fate bringer clones like: Jewel, or 6 dreg. These three guns basically complete the holy trinity of every type of PvE weapon you'd need; even though they are slightly nerfed version because bungie actually started to balance real problems. With some guns making better is just not an option anymore. Which is why Bungie is killing them, so they can make new and still have the new stuff be relevant while actually balancing the game. I shutter to think of what a better Felwinter's would be like or a shotgun that can beat it. I personally would like to see someone collect all what 15 variants of every single weapon in every expansion. Then realize almost every single one of them is damn near a copy of another or edged out by ones that have the peak stat rolls. You can still collect weapons but what you don't realize is collectors don't throw away something they collected because they don't use it. I found every single item in D2 and kept them, only used under prolly 1/3 or less of them, but I kept them because I just wanted to have them.

  • Yeah don't get me wrong on fatebringer. I do get it. It was the go to for a lot of people. It's whatever. It's become exhausting to try and make the point anymore. What is important though is how tough it is to get your friends to play this game now. I had time this morning. Tried talking some friends into jumping on just for shots and giggles. None of them would bite. Almost all have sworn the game off for good. That's a problem.
