A very disappointing experience

I absolutely loved Destiny 1. I never got into PVP, but the PVE experience was so much fun to play. I feel like Destiny 2 took what was so awesome about Destiny 1 and just stripped it all away and I don't know why. First of all Supers and other abilities take way too long to fill. Part of what made Destiny 1 so much fun, and not just another run of the mill shooter was the space magic! I felt like your super could be up 2-4 times during a boss battle and you could always use it get the battle back under control or absolutely squash a new wave of boss adds which felt amazing and was just really fun. In Destiny 1 I felt like I spent about 40% of a boss battle shooting my primary/staying in cover/gathering other ammo types, 20% using my heavy, 20% using my secondary weapons, and 20% using my supers and special abilities. In Destiny 2 I feel like my offensive plan of attack is 95% cover/primary weapon auto shoot which is REALLY boring because the abilities take forever to charge and I never get any other ammo types. (Oh and no ammo synths?) I feel like they completely stripped my favorite classes. In Destiny 1 throughout any raid I was constantly changing, and mixing my class skills for each upcoming boss fight. I felt like there were 9 or so legitimate different combinations that were unique and offered an advantage in any given boss fight, and it was very fun to experiment and discover those advantages. The "skill tree" in Destiny 2 isn't even a tree, its more like a path with 2 choices. You pretty much have 2 choices once you take out grenades, jumps and your one other ability, which for titan is essentially the same thing. Very disappointing. How do you fix this? Literally just bring back the Destiny 1 systems...Destiny 2 would have been amazing being played under the Destiny 1 systems. You want to add more to the game? Then add 4 for columns and another row of skills. IDK. The new shader system is horrible, I find that I am NEVER using them because they are consumable and I don't want to waste them? The old system was way better. I'm just overwhelmed with disappointment. PS: Please stop trying to balance this game around PVP, I already had to leave one of my favorite games years ago (WOW) because the PVE experience was ruined by PVP balance. Don't let this happen to another potentially iconic PVE experience. Not everything has to be an ESPORT. You want to balance PVP in the old Destiny 1 system, STOP making small arena style pvp where the only objective is to bludgeon the other team. Using another example from WOW, imagine a large scale 40v40 pvp match synonymous with Alterac Valley, with multiple different objectives, spawn flags to catch and bosses to kill. When you take away the confined spaces and singular objective of the current PVP system you would find that players would complain less because somewhere in that large scale, multi-objective PVP space is a niche just for them and how they like to play. There is so much else...I just don't even know where to begin... Again, I'm just overwhelmed with disappointment.
