Umm actually you shouldn't speak for everyone I don't want my year 1 weapons to be ascend able. I'll explain why, it's because it's time to move on I'm personally tired of using the same old weapons all the time. I don't understand how a lot of other people aren't. You really want to just use the same 5 weapons for the next 10 years of destiny? Look the fact of the matter is year 1 wasn't a waste of time because we had FUN! If you didn't have fun then you shouldn't be playing the game plain and simple. Personally I had a great time year 1! I also feel like it's time to move on to better things. The fact of the matter is you can't move on while still staying attached to the past. I think if you all take a step back and look at this change from a mature point of view and really try to understand why they are doing this you will understand. They are not making this change to make your time a waste! The game is supposed to be fun and if your not having fun you shouldn't play the game. The fact of the matter is that if your having fun your time is never a waste. I will leave you all to ponder on that.
