Why are things that shorten your play time removed? (Destiny)
Yet things that perform the same function still in the game with no discussion by Bungie as to any change?
I'm speaking mostly of the Loot Cave and Material Grinding. One the Loot Cave hand, you have things that expediate a player's means to getting Engrams. This goes against what Bungie 'intended' with the game and shortens a players play time to get to 20+ and ultimately 30.
But, the real grind in the game is Materials. If shooting into a cave for hours a day in the slim hope that a Purple drops and at the time actually decoded into a purple is 'shortening the play time', why is running in a circle for hours opening chests that ALSO MAY CONTAIN PURPLES not?
Why are they both the same thing, yet only one is removed?
Wait, who does chest runs for purples?
