Black Armory - Day 1 Impressions (Criticism)

I must admit that I’m baffled. I fully expect to look back appreciatively in five weeks of all the fun I had and am having grinding out Black Armory weapons. But I expected a bigger impact on day one of new stuff still. The lack of new armor is disappointing. Every season should have new ornaments for Vanguard, Crucible, and Gambit sets. That seems like a no-brainer to me.

That said, I also don’t really care. I will continue to just have fun playing Destiny. I had so much fun playing Gambit with Claude and Talli and Disciple a few nights ago. I had a blast last night doing the Nightfall and Heroic story missions and Crucible. Even our failed attempt at the first Forge was a lot of fun.

It’s a disappointing first day, for sure, but I’m willing to see the run of the first month before I really judge—this was explicitly advertised as new end game content, designed to keep the hardcore players coming back. That’s what this is—we’ll see how good it is at accomplishing that in a month.
