You posted this against me this morning and got proven wrong then. Still at it I see. People who want cores in infusion are the minority. The mass minority. We know this by how frequently Bungie has addressed and continues to address the issue. You can pretend you're the majority, but that's simply not true.

This guy is a genius

The silent majority [spoiler]SJW gets rekt by Ben Shapiro with facts and logic [/spoiler]

I love this!!!! Well said. They aren’t the majority and I never even thought about statistics haha.

This is intellectual? More childish I would say.

I read but still downvoted because of the title lol

I agree, but the issue isn’t with cores being in the game. Two in-game currencies shouldn’t be used on different systems, especially because they are such different systems. Infusion should be less of an annoyance than it is now, and masterworking is fine if we had a chance to use the system. In fact, make masterworking cost more cores. If you give us more cores, masterworking is easier (which it shouldn’t be). However, if you leave it how it is, infusion is like a chore. Simple solution is just removing cores from infusion.

I’m just waiting for the whiners to come out of the woodworks after FF7 is remastered. Now, you wanna talk about a grind. 5x Knights of the round

Ah, man, after reading the first bit, I wanted to have a nice rebuttal. But apparently we already agree, so not much to argue, lol. I guess one thing I can say, it isn't really an isolated occurrence. The whiny aspect, I mean. I do agree that they are the vocal minority. But I truly believe it is a generational, culture change. The older gamers, like myself were raised to accept challenges in life, and in video games, as well. We were taught that in order to receive top tier/endgame rewards, you had to complete the tasks given to you by others. Want the biggest cool looking trophy? Then you have to win. Want a raise, you have to put in more effort than the others you work with. The younger generations, think that simply participating/paying for a game, "entitle's," you to everything regardless of the amount of effort you put forth. A great example of this, is all the gamers currently demanding an easy mode for: Sekiro Shadows Die Twice, a game specifically designed to be super hard, like Dark Souls. Cleary Bungie and FromSoftware, originally built their games, with the idea that they would contain certain activities or challenges, that not everyone would have the skill, or the drive to accomplish. And, imo, that is totally acceptable. I think we are just on the edge of a generational divide, with older people having different mindsets than the younger people, leading to all of these back and forth arguments. Sadly, due to the changing markets and a monetary need for Game companies to satisfy the majority of players, we will see an ever lessening of the true challenges we find in games. Maybe society will shift back at some point, and so will the difficulty trend in gaming, but not sure how many of us older gamers will actually live long enough to see it trend back the other way. It will be interesting to see what form infusion takes in D3. If Bungie sticks with the idea, that if you really want all your gear at your current level, you need to put in a longer grind. Which is all having cores in infusion means, less instant gratification. Or a slightly longer path to that gratification. Just got my main to 700 early this morning. And have accumulated enough cores to have most of the weapons I like using, at 700 and a few waiting around 689, with a 700 infusion piece of gear waiting for me to grind cores and glimmer for. Would it be nice to not have to wait, or put in extra effort to get all my stuff to 700? Sure, of course. But is it the end of the world, or worth quitting a game I enjoy playing, because I actually have to play the content the game offers to fully level everything? No, not in the slightest. And when the next season drops, will it be the end of the world, to keep playing to level up again? No, it is simply part of the gameplay cycle. And if Destiny 2 or 3, or any other game I purchase becomes boring, or not fun to play. Will I endlessly demand the creators to change their game to fit my personal needs? No, I will just simply play something else, that I find enjoyable. You don't have to enjoy every game. And people have regrets about purchases all the time. But demanding changes based on personal expectations, rather than just finding something else to fulfill our expectations, seems petty and childish to me. Again highlighting the generational difference in our society and the gamer community. Have a great day!

But... but.... but if I don’t infuse every time I receive a higher drop, I have to let go of my PvE crutch and try out other weapons. How dare Bungie force me to use different weapons in the game!! And you know, I have to dress up like a hobo if I don’t infuse my armor, which impacts my gameplay soooo much. Like I can’t tell you how much better I feel just knowing that my pixels that I don’t even see in game look good. And I play 2 hours a week and never get cores, like the system is so broken that you have to actually put in effort to get stuff. Anyone that says they have 100 cores is just an elitist Bungie fanboy that doesn’t care about my feelings. Man the enhancement cores are just so offensive like I need a safe space.... let me retreat into the “Remove enhancement cores” spam threads so I can live happily in my echo chamber, before I get PTSD. See ya
