Finally a discussion I might actually enjoy. First, I'd like to thank you for not using scrub in your reply. As for reskinned weapons and diversifying gameplay. The numbers on the guns are different along with the perks. IMO, it was a shortcut instead of having to completely reinvent the wheel. Plus with the new weapon line from the three weapon brands, if you will, make for a pretty big selection. Just because they are reskinned, doesn't mean that they have to be used constantly like in year 1. Any burn on a weapon primary was a definite must to have equipped in pve at least. And if this isn't true, at least the mindset was true. People hunted Templar and Atheon for FB and VoC. And Crota obviously. Granted I loved having the burns, but I think bungie had it right by revoking them this time. I felt too strong and nothing was challenging until PoE. Without the burns, it makes it more fun for me. Like I had to coordinate weapons with team mates like I would for trials.
