The last thing this series needs is MORE restrictions. 🤦♂️
It’s already nearly suffocating itself with rigidity. It needs to go in the other direction. More options, more paths of progression/acquisition, more freedom, more openness. It’s a wonder the game can even breathe sometimes.

Yeah man, cos everyone using the same 2 weapons isn't restrictive at all. Wtf are talking about? The game actually isnt remotely restrictive, but the way weapons are balanced is.

I agree that the crucible is shit right now and the game’s PvP has always suffered for strict metas, but it’s restrictive in many more ways than just that.

I'm not even talking about crucible. Crucible can wait, since the MASSIVE and much needed nerf to supers and Heavy will shift the games balance. I'm talking about pinnicle weapons, excelling or not excelling in Modes they weren't from. Recluse and MT shouldn't be remotely the best DPS guns in the game. They SHOULD be great PvP weapons, like Lunas, NF, Redrix. But outside of PvP, they need to be average, because they shouldn't be there anyway. This isn't about restricting content, this is about rewarding players who run a certain TYPE of content, with a weapon that they can earn and show off inside THAT content. Nightfalls need Pinnicle weapons, that are especially good INSIDE Nightfalls, and decent/pretty good everywhere else. They can make weapons like that, they have before. But Recluse and MT had no thought put into them when it came to use out of PvP, and other Pinnicle weapons are so bad they're not even worth going after.

When you say “average” in other activities, that will translate to unviable because of other weapons being so much better. This would just enforce even stricter metas, activity specific metas. And when it comes to LFG only activities it will only make the LFG process even worse than it is as many people will require those weapons. I don’t think any piece of gear should be intentionally reduced to being viable or significantly better in a single activity.
