Title. [b]Tldr: I would like to earn more Bright Dust again, and work for it.[/b] I really dislike the fact that we are so limited in earning Bright Dust. To me, it feels like we're getting minimum income to buy maybe one item on the store per week, or we have to save up and miss out on all the cool items. I understand it has been designed this way to "encourage" players to use real money via Silver instead, IF we can even buy the items for Silver. And apparently that works so well that our weekly income is reduced more and more. But as a player who doesn't have a huge pile left from the glorious days of Year One, it sucks. Every week I see beautifully designed items and pieces, stuff where you can feel that the people behind it put their mind and heart into it to design it. But what's that, you don't have enough Bright Dust? Too bad, pay up. Oh, the item isn't available as Silver because it's from a past season? Well, go -blam!- yourself then and hope that you get it from Eververse Engrams. Ah but don't forget the Engrams don't always provide new items, so you'll have to live with duplicates of items you already own and that have literally no use since they don't provide any Bright Dust upon dismantling anymore. Hey Bungie. I WANT to get these items. I want to play and earn Bright Dust and invest my time to get one of these items. But you're controlling me too much. And that discourages me from investing my time. It discourages me from spending my earned Bright Dust, and it sure as hell doesn't encourage me to spend real money. You should leave me the choice. I want that feeling again to say "Wow, this item is SO COOL, I want it right away!", like with this season's Eververse Universal Ornament Set. But if I want to earn it by playing your game literally every week, sometimes every day, and completing every task you set before me, I should be able to do that. Please don't understand this wrong. The new system with the Weekly Challenges is great. It will really help the small player, the irregular player to come back at one point and get their stuff. But for the active players, for those that keep your game alive because they play each week and complete each task it leaves a bitter note that I actually do everything I can (aside from farming HUNDREDS of Repeatable Bounties, which is exactly what the Weekly Challenge system is trying to prevent), but still CANNOT get that Emote. It's great for the hobby player who barely cares about the store either way, it sucks for those that invest their time and elevate Destiny from a hobby to a lifestyle, because it's Just. Not. Worth. It. I think there's a solution. There are probably a lot more, but here's mine: Let us earn Bright Dust via Eververse Engrams again. Two ways here: make it like the old system where dismantling an item grants Bright Dust. That would give the duplicates a better feeling again, because they're not entirely worthless anymore. You could adjust the Eververse Engrams then so that they actually lean more into new Items, so that way we still earn only a controllable amount of BD. You could make items from the Collection cost Bright Dust again too. Now that we can control the perks on Ghosts and have Quick Summon on any Sparrow, we rarely draw more than one copy out of the Collection anyway. Other way, add 100 Bright Dust to each Eververse Engram. I think this is also a controllable way. Not many people even hit Season Level 100 so that they start earning Eververse Engrams beyond those that are in the pass. An Engram every five level means 20 Engrams for 100 levels, which equals to 2000 Bright Dust. Very controllable. There are only a handful of players who go beyond Level 200. Even less beyond 500, or 1000. And those players? Man, they earned it. They keep playing and playing and grind out Bounties and literally EVERYTHING in your game. They are the heart of your game. They SHOULD have a pile of Bright Dust. They earned it. If you have read this far, thank you. It's something weighing heavily on my soul, since I really love to play this game.
