This really is just how they advertised Rise of Iron all over again. They got all this really cool stuff being put into the game, and yet all anyone talks about is one Exotic that will be coming back. For Rise it was Gjallarhorn, now it's Ice Breaker. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad both guns came back, but there are other ways to market your product Bungie aside from using something only the people who already play the game would know about. If I were to advertise Destiny using only content from The Dawning, what do you think would bring in new players? Death racing, or the promise of a gun you never heard of?
