New character. (Destiny)

Eververse (the Eververse most of us see) sells what... about 10 things at a time? THAT is what's "in my face" when I visit Tess. All those sparrows and ships and shaders and ghosts I'm getting every time I earn an engram? Those are freebies, things I'd never heard of until they appeared in my inventory.

Which you now earn twice as slowly since Bungie can't throttle you anymore. This has the consequence of making your character level up twice as slow, which has a huge effect should you want to start a new character.

The next new character I make will probably be in D1.

I'm starting to miss that content already. Once it was revealed that D2 would be an entirely new animal and not just a really large expansion, I was afraid that day would come-- and too soon.

I find myself thinking about this quite a bit, too. If they made substantial engine changes and fixed the engine stuff in regards to content creation being a pain, then I can see how it was worth it to move on.

But more and more I find myself wishing we just had Destiny, a singular product with all content in one package. I'd love to be able to go back to Old Russia, the Moon, Venus, etc, without having to launch an entirely different game and feel like I'm wasting my time (in terms of character progression).
