Ok, so first off, the new Director's Cut as a whole isn't all bad, some important stuff is being addressed. But the thing that really rubs me the wrong way is retiring legendary weapons. Don't get me wrong, as someone who is into game design, I GET IT. No really, I do. I get how carrying forward hundreds of cool weapons makes it nearly impossible at some point to create cool new stuff. People want things to chase. But I can promise you right here and now... it will have the exact opposite effect on me. If I know the god-rolls I grind out for hours will be useless in about a year, I will stop caring about them. I have spent absurd amounts of time getting my god-roll Kindled Orchid, Hammerhead or now Breachlight. Those guns, as weird as it sounds, mean something to me. How good they are, how long it took to get them, how cool they look. If every time I get something like this I KNOW I will lose it in time... I just can't bring myself to really care anymore. ...so yeah, again, I fully get your problem, but I'm gonna be brutally honest here: My enjoyment doesn't care about the issues in game-design you face. It may work to keep OTHER people interested in the game, but it will have the opposite effect on me. If you retire my Legendaries I will stop caring about loot. EDIT: So some people are telling me that my own personal feelings on the game somehow make no sense. Apparently because I already have all the good stuff I could ever need, I should've already stopped grinding... except I haven't. Bungie has still managed to give me stuff worth going for every season. I'm also a collector, so if something is good and looks unique, I want it. But also, I'm just a bit tired of grinding after 2 1/2 years of hardcore play. I still play a lot but getting a god-roll just once in a while is fine. That's fun to me nowadays. But if they were to take it all away again and again and again... I would just burn out. Their intended effect of forcing me to play more would just backfire. I'd go from a game I just play a bit less after literal thousands of hours (which is normal) to a game I might actually quit. I hope that makes sense. (Also, it's not like they couldn't do other things to make new weapons more viable. In another thread an actual game-dev has made some great suggestions, I was just here to voice my disappointment.)
