On implementing weapon variety

First of all I want to say that I don't own a console, so I'm completely new to anything related to Destiny. From a technical point of view the game seems quite finished. The gameplay on the other hand was not what I expected. Did I miss anything or is Destiny's arsenal quite narrowed down? It seems like you get to choose from automatic weapons, burst guns, semi auto guns and pistols which all feel like just another assault rifle type. What got me playing the beta was that Destiny 2 looked like a game that is based around special abilities, role-playing elements, finding loot and having a range of unique weapons at your disposal, which made it stick out of the crowd of other shooter-games. But in fact I was quite underwhelmed by the effect abilities had on my gameplay due to their long cooldowns. In addition from what I read in other threads it seems like there has been a major weapons rework placing all non-standard weapons in a rarely used slot. That is in line with what I experienced during my gameplay in PVE. Most of the time I was just using my primary weapon when I ran out of ammo switching to my secondary, which really didn't make much of a difference. I couldn't help but think of Borderlands 2 as a better example of how to implement weapon variety. All this comes down to me feeling like my choice of weapons was limited by lack of ammunition only. Why can't I decide, what what type of gun I want to use, instead of being forced into an assault rifle type? If power weapons are just to strong otherwise and you don't want to change the weapon system, why not just implement weaker versions of different weapon types as primary weapons all in line with the assault rifles dps-wise? As I've seen feedback like this is quite common on your forums. I really hope you do listen to your community . It's not to late to change the weapon system for PVE I guess and it will eradicate most of the criticism around here. I hope this feedback will help you improve your game. I will keep an eye on it.
