I think you raise some very good points and I agree with you. I feel that all the problems you listed have led to the game being uninteresting. The way the crucible is currently isn't fun because everything feels the same and the guns seem that way as well. I appreciate that bungie has paided attention to balance in the game design but I feel that the lack of random rolls really brings the amount of replay ability down(or they need a lot more and dynamic guns). I will enjoy playing this game for friends but it just somehow in this sequel it lost some of its best features, it just doesn't feel as good.
