Not so sure about that (Destiny)

by Beorn , <End of Failed Timeline>, Friday, July 17, 2015, 03:22 (3517 days ago) @ DreadPirateWes

They've been pushing us to collect field scout, final round, and hand cannons, and now they say "Wait, we take that back! The guns you spent hours upon hours acquiring are too powerful.”

I understand players deciding that those perks are desirable, but I don’t think it’s fair to say that Bungie has been “pushing us to collect” weapons with those perks. We, as a player base, certainly have a hive mind of our own when it comes to these sort of things, which I think is a much greater driving force in that decision-making.
