I haven't decided one way or another about staying with the game, but I am leaning toward at least a long break if not quitting altogether. This has much more to do with upcoming games, though, than the weapon updates. But instead of hurling childish insults maybe you need to stop and consider how much faith players have in bungie right now. I'm a Destiny player, and defender. I've enjoyed the game, good and bad, from beta and day one. And, I'm experienced with mmo games and how gear becomes outdated. I don't have a problem with that. What I do have a problem with is the fact that we haven't been given enough in the way of fun, useful new gear. You can add a few hundred guns with each dlc but let's be honest, raid and now trials weapons are almost, almost being the operative word, the only ones worth using besides exotics. Then consider that vanilla Destiny raid weapons are still the best, better than tdb, poe, and trials, and the most recent dlc weapons are harder to get because they drop less in poe and not everyone likes pvp/can go flawless in trials. Bungie can balance whatever they need to, I genuinely don't mind, but they are making everything equally mediocre instead of making more weapons really great so we use a variety, and their track record with new gear is cause for concern when making the old gear less useful. If they added a burn type to mida, any at all, if they left icebreaker/bh alone, if they had made necro or no land beyond genuinely useful, if the tdb raid weapons hadn't been generally weaker than the vog ones, then we'd probably see more variety in what people used, but they are constantly taking away any advantage from gear in a game that is driven by the grind to get new gear. The early interviews with devs talked about gear telling a story, about getting mods from in game events to use on weapons, suggesting that you could modify and update your old gear at least for a while. But when new gear is consistently less powerful and less useful, people would be right to be skeptical at best. Combine that with the fact that Destiny is a hybrid game, fpsmmo, and the fact that the fps user base are a type more likely to get attached to gear and not want to change it, and they are going to clash with the mmo user base that knows and expects obsolescence in gear, which in turn leads to pissing matches on the forums, and us arguing with each other rather than discussing, productively, the game that brought us here. I have loved my time in Destiny. I am wary at best of the gear changes because it doesn't seem like they are actually going to make much more useful, just make more less useful. I want Destiny to succeed, but I want the game that we were promised because that game, that is a game I'll happily invest my time and money in for the long haul. I'll pay for expansions to that game, I'll lose myself for hundreds more hours, thousands even considering how much I've played in year one. But if my time feels wasted because everything I've managed to get had been made weaker, with nothing better to replace it, and there is no content really worth exploring, then that time and that money will go elsewhere. That's not a threat to bungie, it's not a promise that I'm gone never to return, it's just a simple fact.

By George, I think you've done it!
