*When you had to spend dozens of hours of constant searching/returning to orbit and the planet, in the hopes of getting enough materials in a circular run to upgrade your weapons.
*When a specific Galahad weapon was considered the best weapon in the game, and was nerfed by Bungie.
*Loot cave
*When Purple engrams were a common drop
And lastly, from what I remember....the game, do you remember, the game?

(elderly voice) "Back in my day we just pushed the bosses off."
-
Thinking Queens Wrath gear would get me to 30... And not buying the Ghorn from Xur
-
When people complained about the interceptors in the beta.

-
Edited by Fumbleblart: 3/18/2015 11:03:20 AMWhen you didn't bother buying Gjallahorn from Xur because it was "just a rocket launcher" and it would be better to save strange coins for a decent primary weapon
-
When you had the chance to buy Ghorn from Xur and decided to hold on to your coins incase he sold something better the following week
-
Wondering what the hell was a strange coin for.
-
I remember when 15 Legendary engrams = 1 legendary item + 14 rares items or when you could sell mats for marks.
-
I remember how ever am I going to get enough mats to up my good gear
-
I remember all except for the purple engrams. I never get things like those!
-
Am I the only one who thinks these kinds of posts are retarded? The game isn't even a year old yet. "Good old days" don't exist yet and neither do "veterans"... Come back in 5 years (if Destiny is still a thing) and then these kinds of post become relevant.

Randal the vandal ^^^^
-
Passing up buying some incredible exotics from Xur at the start as I was waiting for an exotic assault rifle. What a fool.
-
Shadow Price vs Grim Citizen III...
-
The all mighty loot cave. Auto rifles were the go to weapon while scout rifles were tampon shooters (before buff) Queens wrath bs.
-
Your a veteran if you did the fallen walker bounty and raged when you found out you need to have the shot that actually killed it for it to count for you.
-
When the faction graph thing was a circle
-
When you could trade materials for reputation (Noticed your also an SAO fan)
-
Queen's Wrath day 1, I have 5 missions stacked after doing bounties. My brother, "hey you wanna run some pvp and do those things tomorrow." Me, "Sure." tomorrow... Bungie, "People were taking advantage of Queen's wrath and getting too many ascendent materials, we are getting rid of the ascendent drops." Me, "FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK."
-
Loot cave.
-
What's a legendary engram drop? Do they ever drop anymore?
-
Also remember that while purples dropped, they decrypted as blue.
-
When I thought Riksis dropped Thunderlord.
-
Purple engrams have never been a common drop however, it was common for them to turn blue or even green. Good lookin' out Bungie.
-
Happy and pi$$ed off every time you got upgraded gear. Happy because it's an upgrade, pi$$ed off because you had to grind the materials.
-
You could level up the cryptarch 3 times a day!!
