I can't be the only one who thinks getting a perfect roll or constantly trying to was one of the main aspects of the original and had us coming back for more? Now I see everything for what it really is.. reskinned and recolored with no real differences.
Levelling my guns to get a feel for them and unlocking the perks that felt signifcant were a huge part of the experience and without that it feels very empty.. It's kind of sad and since it is this way I don't see any 'U turn' coming any time soon on that route.
Edit: I'm definitely leaning more towards the randomization of perks or the addition of a way to customize the perks, and not the levelling of guns itself. It was something I felt needed brought up in relation to guns in the original.

Agreed static rolls and also having no perks that roll with armor has made the loot system feel so boring. No longer am I excited to see what an engram decodes into really unless they are a higher level and then I'm more concerned by what level that is and what type of weapon it is instead of what weapon it is and what it can do. This is especially true with exotics too. Less excited to get an exotic minus the power level bump because most exotics don't have the "I must have you" feeling. I am one who is really enjoying the game overall and will continue to play on. Still have a ton to do in game. Just feel like the loot system really lost something with how bland it became. More guns and armor wouldn't fix it either
