Thoughts on RNG going forward (Destiny)

Just thinking about it more, I think I'd be shocked if they took away guaranteed ways to get items and replaced it with even generous RNG. A huge complaint since day one has been how prevalent RNG is in Destiny, and with how good they have been at paying attention to community complaints I think it would seem a huge step backwards to everyone if they got rid of vendors completely. I'm still expecting there to BE RNG in the game, but I think they are going to try and bring it in line with how they mentioned they expected RNG to feel when the game was released: as a bonus. If they leave RNG the way it is, but add dedicated ways to get weapons and gear in The Taken King I think that would make a lot of us in the community very happy.

I can just imagine, in the new raid. Instead of getting a RNG drop you are instead warped to another dimension where you meet a Vendor like Xur were you have to sell your soul for the item you want.
