  • Getting rid of weapons/gear is something that happens every year with games like Destiny, unfortunately it is something that has to happen.

  • It doesn't have to happen. Destiny does not like have to be like any other game.

  • Why? I have read a lot of comments through out the feedback forums and I have yet to find a cogent answer as to why the all of the Legendary and Exotic gear can not continue and be ascended with the new DLC. After all it is a "DLC", it is not the start of a new game. One answer that I have heard is that "this is what MMO's do". To which I must say "so what?". "Would you jump off a cliff if everybody did?", as my mother used to ask me when I said "everyone else is doing it". To me this is the lemming answer. First off we know that Destiny really is no where near a true MMO, it is more of a confused FPS. To say that Destiny must shed the older weapons because that it is an MMO is non-sensible. Destiny is essentially its own game type (as all games truly are, we just artificially put games type labels on groups of them), which means it's designers can do what they want, they don't have to follow what other games did previously. The fact that they allowed weapon ascension in HoW and people still refer to it as an MMO only proves this point. So once again the question comes back to WHY? Please feel free to answer this question if you would like, but please recognize that I may challenge your answer. Please have reason and logic behind your reply's. Answers like "because they said so" are an indication of one's submission to their paternalistic overbearing in this regard and indicates to me that one has no real interest in seeking or explaining their motives or even why this is the best thing for the game and I will probably ignore those posts. So what is(are) the reason(s) why it is best to not continue to allow weapon ascension in the game? Especially since they allowed it before and they are going to allow it again after TTK, only with "Year 2" weapons.
