I actually agree with all of that. (Destiny)

Sorry, I honestly wasn't sure if you were trolling me or not. I'm still not sure.

It really sounds like you want all the shinies but don't want to actually play the game, which is how most of the shinies are unlocked. You say you're out of quests, but there is so much more to do in the game that you're ignoring. The Gunsmith, for example, has 5 guns each week which you can field test for rep. Why aren't you doing that? Is it literally because there's not a quest telling you that you have to?

I'll back up. Here's my real problem with what you're saying: You want the guns *now* but without doing research about how to get them. You are ignoring the fact that, in most of these situations, you would eventually have gotten the guns by accident, just through casual play or in the pursuit of other objectives. As you, yourself, said - you're being lazy.

Look at Boolean Gemini. You need rank 3 with the Queen to get it. Even if you don't know that and the game never tells you that, the game makes it really clear that you also need to be rank 3 to get that sweet spaceship that Petra Venj is selling. There's an incentive to reach rank 3. There are bounties for Petra that you can do to get that rank. Clear path with carrot at the end. And oh wow you get an exotic too?! Bonus.

No research is needed. At all. I don't feel that you have any right to complain that you deserve the rewards without playing the game first, nor is it fair to complain that you needed to do research to get the gun when, in fact, all you needed to do was play the game for the rewards it did show you.

Your stance seems to be "I haven't played the game much at all but I should have all the guns" and that feels really hypocritical to me.
