Old Destiny Was the BEST
***RANT ALERT*** ***YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED***
Year 1 was so much better than what the shit we call "year 2" . Year 1 rewarded good players. BEFORE Crota's End WE HAD TO WORK for our high levels and good gear. What has happened now? Any shit player can reach level 40 and just DO ABSOLUTLY NOTHING SPECIAL and get 300+ light. The LIGHT LEVEL SYSTEM of year 1 is what made this game unique. Now that that was thrown away there is nothing special about this. Might as well just go and play a free one which actually rewards the players that WORK FOR THEIR LOOT other than the people that do nothing and get high light.
Going back the before Crota's End, HOW MANY TEAMS ACTUALLY BEAT THE VoG BEFORE CROTA'S END????? NOT THE MAJORITY!!! THEN VoG was turned into a joke instead of Bringing it forward with crota's end. ALSO... the amount of lvl 30's in year one was less than 1/2 of the amount of lvl 32's in Crota's end. Why you ask? Because Bungie didn't try to satisfy us. They got lazy and released the most broken thing in the game; as well as patching almost none of these glitches because they didn't care. They made us reach max. They didn't try to give us a challenge. VoG was a challenge the entire time because it was long, had multiple bosses, it depended on the team and not a single person being able to do the entire raid as raids are supposed to bring people together, the bosses could be taken down with multiple strategies, the average player was way too under leveled to do hard, you had to do normal MULTIPLE TIMES to be able to even give a fair chance to hard mode.
The VoG "Era" was the best of Destiny. The game should easily be more rewarding to the hardcore players and not the casual crowd. Such as making go up multiple levels in the coming dlc instead of only letting us go up be 2 levels (PATHETIC) and giving us a mediocre "challenge".
Also something else I want to touch on, Them telling us our year 1 progress and effort would not be useless. Flat out LYING TO US. I still keep my most favorite year 1 weapons in the hope they may be useful sometime in the future which is very unlikely. I still carry around my Fatebringer, Gjallarhorn, Vex Mythoclast, Patience and Time, and my Shadow Price. Year 1 is essentially useless to us now.
This is why destiny is going down the shithole fast. Bungie Clean us your act. Fix your game. Make us work for levels (NOT TOTAL RNG 310-320 LIGHT BULLSHIT). Let us enjoy the old ways of this beautiful game.
(Thanks for reading :})

About the VoG era I was talking about, I was not talking about how shitty the drops were or Forever 29. I was trying to talk about the quality of the raid and the fun and challenge it produced.

You couldn't wait until the week was over because you were so damn addicted to the game because of the rng loot system. In year two they gave you everything that made you frustrated in year one. A majority of the y2 exotics can be achieved through quests that you don't even need to grind for. And the rest can be farmed from literally any activity with three of coins. There's four different endgame activities in year two. Vanilla had one, which didn't even reward you all the time. At least with king's fall, the challenge mode guarantees you rewards. Not only that, but if you don't like the raid, you can play trials or iron banner or race your sparrows and get rewards of similar light. Legendary engrams drop like candy now, and guess what...the Cryptarch decrypts them into actual legendary gear. No more shards. Oh what else did TTK bring? A story. Yeah Remember that story in vanilla? I don't. What else is there...oh yeah they made motes drop like candy too. The best part about it is that you can just dismantle them for XP. That extended grind though. You can buy weapon parts, use a universal armor material, sell your planetary materials for faction rep, race sparrows; these were things requested by the community. The only reason you're saying that is because of nostalgia. It's the same reason why people say gen 5 Pokemon are lazy even though they did the exact same thing gen 1. You want vanilla Destiny back? You want an addictive carrot on a stick again? Fine by me. You enjoy a 6/10 game more than its 9/10 dlc. I don't know why. I guess I'll never understand. I didn't get the vault of glass arms until March. I didn't get Fatebringer until mid-dark below. It took me three hours to beat Crota on hard, and it wasn't because it was difficult, it was because the whole damn raid was inconsistent and Crota would cheese our swordbearer. House of Wolves came out and by a week in I had all my gear at max level. Not only that but all those poor HoW weapons were just trashed by the elemental primaries. Not only that, but crucible was plagued by thorn and last word. You want that back? To get sniped across the map by an autorifle and to be two shot by a guy who just ran around a corner and watched you die? How? How do you people want that back?
