This community is so funny
More specifically the forums. It's just comedic at this point.
EDIT 2: I made a poor argument. I suggested factions and trials are not present so why include them in the comparison. This is wrong. We are comparing the loot that was present in both expansions regardless if activity is present or not on one and not the other.
The recent argument I've seen is that Rise of Iron has had more weapons than Shadowkeep. Well, why are you including factions when factions is not available in D2 at the moment? Same with Trials. And on top of that, the amount of reskins there were in D1 is like, god damn.
Literally the same exact weapon frame just different look and stats. And suddenly that is acceptable, but in D2 it isn't? "Oh it's different base stats so it's fine" but back when they made the D2 strike specific loot people went off how "ooh this handle on this hand cannon is shared on this gun" etc etc and screeched reskin. And then on top of that, people using this argument have just magically forgotten about all the lunar weapons too.
Stop acting like D1 was this perfect game. It was SO far from perfect. Fun but honestly, not really as good as D2 imho. But I'll probably just get called a blind fanboy for this and met with toxicity.
EDIT: just wanna say... thanks. Everyone. Surprising to me I had tons of great conversations with everyone from both sides of this argument here. I’ve definitely learned a lot about this topic and would just like to thank everyone for that.

I think you are right. Overall D2 is better than D1. Way more content. I must say I enjoyed raiding in D1 more. But who knows, maybe this new raid is awesome. Going to try it this evening. Trials was good fun in D1. It was a short difficult way to get to flawless 7 wins with a few boons to help out a bit. That's what players miss in this game. There was too much grinding for the pinnacle weapons. Streamers did do 2100 points carries but totally different then flawless runs in D1. Still I think D2 is the better game at the moment. A lot has been tweaked to give it more the D1 feeling. Weapon load out changes is a good example. It also looks way better and you have way more possibilities to customize your guardian. I think the primary weapons in crucible haven't been balanced as much as they are now. There are still a few annoying no skill one hit weapons that sometimes frustrate in crucible. Overall I think the weapons are really balanced. The classes could use a bit more customisation in my opinion. I liked D1 better where you could select the perks for your class. Now you just have 3 supers to select from and 2 are basically kinda the same.
