Because then it would be more like Deus Ex.

Destiny is very clearly not that kind of game. In fact I'd have gotten far less life out of Destiny if I was locked into my purchase options, and I expect the meta would become even more stale even faster as only specific items would be purchased so as to not waste currency. You think everyone uses the same guns now? See how bad it gets when you can only buy 8 per expansion.

#kornywasright. Rethink.

You get the wrong idea. Deus Ex is how to do currency / exp / upgrading right.

But that's not right for Destiny. In fact, I'd argue that just not having gun upgrades and having each already come fully loaded is the way to go. As for things becoming stale, perhaps each of the subclasses could vary significantly, such as heroes in LoL or Overwatch. The game variety would come from a much more rich set of skills and techniques to master.

There could be more true "support" type subclasses (and more of them). They'd make PvP and Group PvE much more interesting, and when playing PvE alone you can fallback on a more typical subclass.
