Simple question.

Definitely Vanilla was more fun, everything was new, you could spend hours shooting "fish in a barrel" for engrams if you wanted to. Nothing was nerfed and we could use the environment to our advantage on strikes and raids (use the sniper platforms on the Templar encounter and "push" clumsy Atheon off the platform). Pocket Infinity and Vex Mythoclast were beast weapons that everyone wanted. All my friends enjoyed playing daily, VoG was fun despite all the glitches. Scrambling to save up enough Strange coins so you could buy some fancy exotic from Xur. The original Queens Wrath event where legendary gear was thrown at you and you could dismantle it for ascendant shards and energies. Farming for mats on Patrol so you could upgrade your gear, or sell the mats to a quartermaster for crucible marks and reputation gains. Meeting Randel the Vandel for the first time and having your arse kicked for that original WTF moment. Coming across those ??? Hive Knights and seeing your weapons do no damage to them. Good times indeed. Then Bungie's meddling began. :'(
