I understand the sentiment, but I think I can understand the vision that Bungie is working towards with the loadout. Our current loadout is setup with a primary weapon - his is and should be the main weapon for our engagements, a special weapons - for special situations such as when a particular type of enemy appears, or the situation calls for it, and a heavy weapon - for great damage. Now, I can't speak for Bungie, but if you look at the ability that snipers can give you, you will see how strong it is in comparison to primaries. So with Destiny 2, Bungie are looking closely at the loadout and each specific slot: Primary - your main method of engagement Energy - specifically the main difference between this slot and the primary slot is the elemental damage. This is the weapon you use for the specific encounters where enemies have elemental shields and you need to do combat in that specific way. Power - In this slot you have weapons that have greater power (obviously) and can give you an advantage on the field against your enemies. The fact that Energy weapons are in essence primary weapons actually gives you various options to modify your primary game, the main method that you will go through combat situations. In PvP you aren't going to be frustrating to other players, and in PvE enemies won't be so easy to defeat. On the other hand, you won't be locked to one primary style, but you can expand to two primary styles which is how you will have options in your engagements. I really think this is how Bungie wants to go about the loadout. At least this is how I understand it. I'm quite happy with how it will work out actually.
