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.

Perfect gun roll ruined my desire to play D1 lol. It created an environment where the only thing you do is grind for pvp advantage. PVE doesn't require god rolls bc it's easy. When you build a game around grinding, either 2 things happen. 1. You grind, you get what you want...you continue to grind. 2. You grind, you don't ever get what you want, you burn out and you quit and go play something else. I do not enjoy running strikes 100+ times. I do not enjoy getting the same guns with shit perks 100+ times I do not enjoy rolling a dice for gear...bc you didn't earn shit...you got lucky -.- For those that do...awesome, you'll do great in life...as an accountant. Because repetition obviously doesn't bore you but it bores me. :(
