Retiring older weapons would put a nice little refresh on the meta, and make the game overall more enjoyable. Take this season, even last season, for example. There are a lot of people that hate this new cycle of doing activity to get new weapons, aka Sundial. "Whats the point in grinding new weapons from these events when you already have your favorite one." Well you're basically skipping the big chunk of the DLC by doing that, ofc its not gonna be fun. Would the game be more fun if Bungie capped all the older stuff? Whatever answer, you would still have to grind new weapons and new armor, which is a big part of the game, getting new and possibly better things. You probably have your god weapon(s) that you never sway from, but what if you find a new weapon that you love even more? One that you want to grind the godroll for, and if the weapon is just as easy to get like this, or last season, the godroll shouldn't take you more than 1 or 2 weeks. (Obviously it depends on how much you play and rng) The Dev post also mentioned the possible change in raid weapons to be like they were in D1. I haven't seen anyone talk about this, and its kind of unfortunate. Especially with how many complain about raid weapons not being close to being worthy of pinnacle reward. I do agree with raid weapons just being mostly like other weapons that you get from anywhere else. But since raids are only done by a small percentage of players, making them really strong would make the majority feel left out. But I feel that you have to make the pinnacle activity give the most pinnacle rewards. So making weapons from raids good, like in D1, you create a reason for players to seek out raid teams, which means more people creating more groups, which might make the lfg posts less toxic. (Obviously I'm 100% just speculating, but I wanna have a positive outlook for this game) With all the weapons in this game, there really needs to be a way to filter it all out. With all the weapons, there is gonna be at least a couple people who its their favorite weapon. So why not cap every weapon so you have to use new ones. I really do get not wanting to part with the weapon you've always used, but change doesn't mean the end of fun, or the end of Destiny. The thing Destiny really needs right now IS change. And sure, their could be better ways to go about filtering out weapons, but with how many choices of weaponry there are right now, this is probably the best way to do it. And sorry if anything is wrong in this post, just correct me :)
