The reason the game is a casual game right now is because the community themselves complained that "drops were too hard," "getting to lvl 30 was too hard", "I've beaten VoG x amount of times and this new guy just started last month and he's already lvl 30 because he got lucky." All that "forever 29" crap. Remember?
Just face it guys, you brought this upon yourselves. Stop blaming Bungie for everything. If anything, they've listened to the community more than not.
