A certain amount of randomness adds a sense of mystery and excitement. The thing is, the randomness needs to be heavily weighted so that players feel like they are consistently receiving rewards that are worth their effort, even if those rewards are randomized. Destiny has the problem of their random reward tables including too many lackluster possibilities and not being weighted enough towards the good stuff.
