Well, yea we never asked for this. They thought this is what we wanted without asking us directly before implementing this trash. This is just something of a compromise for both sides, it isn't everything we wanted but it's* better than nothing. Edit: Fixed typo*

Actually, I don't think they considered at all what players wanted, they went with what THEY wanted. They wanted a bogus skill tree that would interfere less with PvP balance. Just like most of their lousy decisions in this game, it all centers around "balance" for the Crucible.

Couldn't agree more here. I've stated this on several other replies that they want to be able to control a meta to keep the "balance" of PvP. What they never realized was that most people flocked to this kind of PvP because there [i]could[/i] be an imbalance given the right circumstances. Everyone sought to earn that kind of advantage with the right kind of builds to class perks, armor/ weapon perks, and gear stats.

[quote]What they never realized was that most people flocked to this kind of PvP because there could be an imbalance given the right circumstances[/quote] Yup. It all comes down to not knowing why people play Destiny. So, after 3-4 years, Bungie still hasn't figured it out.
