D1: Snipers actually penetrate elemental shields and get critical hits. Like a sniper should. D2: Legendary snipers are the most underused weapon in PvE because they only pop shields, and you have to shoot the enemy again. Completely negating the point of a sniper. D1: Fast cooldowns because you could max out 2 ability stats.(Intellect/Discipline/Strength) D2: Slow as -blam!- cooldowns and a shitty mod system that only let's you max out one ability cooldown. Ruining the fun of having space magic abilities. D1: Combustion skill for Golden Gun that makes enemies explode. D2: No Combustion skill. Just a lame explosion perk on Celestial Nighthawk that does nothing but make one enemy explode. D1: Tether activates immediately. D2: Tether activation is still too slow after a year and a half of players asking for it to be fixed. D1: Cool looking armor and class items. D2: Re-skinned and ugly garbage armor. Except for a few sets. D1: Scout rifles are awesome. D2: Scout rifles suck, and no legendary scouts from D1 made it into the game. D1: Guaranteed strike specific loot with a skeleton key. D2: Strike specific loot drop rates are non-existent, require hundreds of nightfall runs, and prayers to RNGesus. D1: Have a safe full of awesome exotic weapons and armor that you spent years collecting. D2: You lose all your stuff from D1, and are required to grind and pay money for the same exact weapons you already had. D1: The game was a hobby. D2: The game is a job. D1: An easy infusion system that worked great. D2: Infusion requires cores, and armor can't be infused into other classes. D1: Vendors and factions actually sold weapons with rotating weekly rolls. Level up packages were guaranteed to be powerful gear. D2: No useful vendors or factions. Level up rewards are low level trash. D1: Archon Forge drops powerful gear, and can be farmed indefinitely. D2: Blind Well drops powerful gear twice a week per character. EP has horrible weapon drop rates and keys are required to get the armor. D1: Exotic armor can be re-rolled. D2: Nah, son. D1: Raze Lighter, Bolt Caster, and Dark Drinker. D2: Swords are meh and not worth using. D1: Decent ammo reserves for Black Spindle. D2: 9 rounds. D1: Abaddon and Nova Mortis. D2: Only Thunderlord. D1: No timers. D2: Timers and more jumping puzzles.
