exotic overload

So, another rant, but as the saying goes, throw enough s@%t at the wall and some has to stick, right? Quite frankly, I'm not about saying the game has wasted my time, I know its not what we expected, not even close, does that mean I dislike it? No. I love the game; the landscapes of intricately detailed rock faces to the simple yet effective weapon range, I think its all great and don't want to complain about a game which though not perfect, Is very good. Now for the next bit, all the successes of the game are from some impressive feats of the gaming world and yet where the game falls short is rather the opposite, simple yet essential details in making a game that lasts and people remember after the big releases of the following years and even decades. Details such as repetitive missions, lack of armour personalisation and as the title suggests, overly available legendary and exotic weapons and armour. Xur has murdered the bragging rights of "the kid who found truth In the raid" or "that guy who found ice breaker in a chest" and now finally, a weapon I was so looking forward to having, telling everyone how my sniper turns me invisible, and is really rare, is there for anyone who wants it, patience and time has been made available through xur as well as many other weapons that are meant to be there for only the most lucky or elite. I understand the required balance between long shift and temp gamers all feeling fulfilled but all the exotics are as common as they come now, there is no longer a special feeling that comes with finally getting that weapon you've been dreaming of. I just want a game where rare means rare and where I'm not left with the choice of which exotic to upgrade next, enough is enough. Maybe a few exotics from xur on rare occasions but at least keep some of the exotics' dignity by not pawning them off to any and everyone, a few which are desired by all and owned by the lucky few, to create pride among players again, excitement even, that makes me keep hoping.

    Xur is the game trying to balance itself out. What about those of use who can't do the raid? Or those of us who don't know enough people to do a nightfall? But the reality is this: [b]everything is random. [/b]So I could have gotten ice breaker just doing patrol. You never really earn your loot in this game except the special drops in the VoG or through exotic bounties. Bungie originally said in trailers and interviews before release that you could "tell stories about where you got that sweet loot", but the problem is bosses and strikes don't drop specific stuff. There's no boss except Atheon where you can say that they could drop 'X' loot....its unfortunate. It would be awesome if specific bosses only dropped specific stuff, then you could tell your story.
