Too many microtransactions and not enough Bright Dust

There aren't enough ways to earn Bright Dust

Eververse Items are too expensive

The Eververse economy is fine as is

As someone who tries pretty hard to collect most of the new weapons, skins, armor cosmetics, etc. I find it almost impossible to keep up with Eververse without spending money. With the changes to cosmetic items no longer dismantling for Bright Dust it is a grueling grind to acquire enough Bright Dust to buy these "free to play" cosmetics fast enough. In theory, each weekly bounty from the 3 main NPC vendors (Zavala, Shaxx, Drifter) grants 200 Bright Dust a piece with additional bounties from some vendors rewarding 10 Bright Dust a piece. This ends up as a grand total of about 3600-4000 bright dust for an account per week so long as they finish these bounties on every character. That's a decent amount however new eververse items such as sparrows, ships, ghosts, and emotes cost anywhere from 2000-3500 bright dust apiece meaning that unless you store away massive amounts of this currency there is no way to acquire all of these new cosmetics fast enough before the event is over. Please implement a better way to earn bright dust or make these prices more reasonable so that people don't feel like they're missing out if they don't spend ridiculous amounts of real money on silver. It has felt like the seasons have just been an excuse to market new skins for quite a while and I can't imagine much of the community enjoying this. If you made it this far into this post please answer the poll question. What is your opinion of the Bright Dust economy?

    I wouldn't mind Eververse if at least 2 following 3 happened: 1.) Bright Dust prices lowered. 2.) More sources to obtain bright dust (preferably by guaranteeing some amount of bright dust per brightgram as well as doubling bright dust gains from additional bounties). 3.) Entire page(s) dedicated to items purchasable with bright dust. No more weekly rotation crap. Either save up for the item you want, or take your chances with the RNG engrams; you get however long the season is to obtain these items. Could argue legacy items being the only ones that appear in these pages while the current season remains behind the RNG engrams, or vice versa.
