Control the zones, Guardians! (Destiny)

Don't recall people whining about not getting to fight Reptile in the old MK days, or crying that they couldn't get the top-tier loot out of the gate in a Final Fantasy game...

You don't understand my argument. Those things were entirely under the control of the player. Get good enough for the double flawless, and bam, you can fight reptile! Look at all the guides, and you can get all the top tier stuff in FF. Getting a Hawkmoon is 100% out of my control.

No. That is a lie, and I think you know it.

Getting a Hawkmoon is not 100% within your control, nor do you cite a compelling reason why it should be except that you feel you deserve one. That is obviously not the drive of Bungie's design.

Suggesting that because it is not completely within your control, it must be completely out of your control is a classic false dichotomy.

Try this: stop playing and I guarantee you'll never get one. See that? You did have some control!
