casual players got screwed (Destiny)

You need to give up on "finding" gear in-game, and focus on buying it from the vanguard or a faction. You will get a good loot drop here and there, but it is far-between.

Isn't that the truth. So, yeah, I'm going to definitely go with the marks route instead of praying for a good engram or loot drop.

All these patches/fixes (not that they weren't needed) are bad for causal gamers b/c the hard core guys grind them out, get all the benefit from them, and then they are patched. This widens the gaps between the haves and the have nots.

I really wouldn't mind that at all if this game was entirely PvE or if your PvE and PvP characters were wholly different. But facing a Level 20+ with all these ridiculously powerful armaments and armor just gets to be such a bummer in PvP. It seems like no matter how good your tactics are, regardless if you were able to get the first and multiple succeeding shots on them first, they'll always be able to bear down their Death Star turbolaser of a fusion rifle on you with little harm to them.

Once the Master Chief Collection comes out, I'll probably just get on to run the raid weekly, and then go back to Halo.

Yeah, having the first three games all on one console is going to be such a joy. I could play Halo 2 endlessly and I am so freaking excited to finally try out Halo 1 on a network.
