Great post however i strongly believe you miss the actual reason why they are getting rid of year 1 weapons. In order to do that you need to look at wder picture.
What did they announce in last month , Black Hammer , Icebreaker , Ghally will be nerfed with some other weapons.
Now they are also nerfing the year 1 weapons because they believe VOG weapons are too powerful. The actual reason why Bungie is leaving year 1 weapons is not introducing new weapons.
It is for introducing WEAKER weapons so that game playing time will artificially increase. They are lazy on creating content and instead they are giving you weaker guns so it will take longer time to kill boss's and complete the game.
This is all an effort to increase game time , nothing further. They choose not to invest in content and yet still they choose to take away the content we earned in year 1.
Lame as hell and one of the biggest corporate bullshit plans...

Yeah, and a lot of people who are defending this decision apparently don't even know that Bungie already tried this once before with Dark Below and then they came out and said "yeah, sorry guys, we messed up! But here's Etheric Light to make it all better!"

And seriously, WTF? As if the bosses aren't all bullet sponges already? COME ON! Make a product worthy of your legacy you losers.

Skolas is a bullet sponge too but it is fun to kill him , the reason community is not focus on killing Skolas is the lack of checkpoints ( another great corporate decision ) , terrible quality rewards , the moment i received elemental guns from Skolas , i dismantled them. They don't even deserve a place net to my other trophy collection :) In order to save Destiny , Bungie needs to depart their way with Activision and unfortunately it will not happen. That's why we should accept the fact sooner or later , Destiny was a good experience but it only lasted a year.

Edited by Grumpy N Old: 8/7/2015 5:15:12 PMYeah, some of my buddies have run the 35. I have abstained, though for exactly that reason. No checkpoints=GARBAGE. I rarely have the 3 to 4 hours it could take to complete it and even when I do, it doesn't necessarily line up with my buddies. Sad. Really sad. It was so awesome there for a while. I sign in and nearly everybody on my friends list is playing the same game. Oh well. 'Maybe Halo 5 will be good.' :-)

You're probably right on point. But that's all the more reason to tell them to shove it and go play something else. Let them watch us give our dollars to somebody else.
