Having only played D1 when Taken King came out, I have to say that I feel Destiny 2 has gone too far with 'casual' mode. I don't feel any excitement with getting Exotics drops. Everyone has them. Xur sells them. Legendaries drop like candy & are easy to acquire, etc. I'm also disappointed with no random gun perks. I do agree that skill should matter in PvP first but I think some gear should be different & yes help you if you get some amazing piece. Lost Sectors? How are they lost when they are on the map marked & even in person with the symbols. Hidden chests? Just buy a map from Cayde. Need glimmer, get maxed out so fast that you don't have anything to use it on except more maps/mods. I think Bungie is going to have to do a 're-pass' where they add some things back in so people have something to look forward too. Everything is just handed to people now that I can tell people are getting bored already. I foresee a new level of gear that is a orange/red drop that will be above an Exotic. They have to add something like this in the game that is random dropped at such a super low % (raids, nightfall, word events). They will have to add some new challenges/make gear drop less & possibly up the light level some to deal with just how easy they've made the game so far. I've barely played and I'm at 20 already and with barely doing much are close to 270+ which seems crazy to me for not doing much strikes/nightfall. Bungie needs to address a bunch of things ASAP.
