More, Better, Wilder Gear
Cayde-6 promised tons of loot in the reveal trailer for Destiny 2, and that has a lot of Guardians excited. However, a lot of loot isn’t always a good thing. It could end up being just a ton of fodder to keep you going, with nothing of any real consequence to pick up.
Now we know that there will be some hidden gems, much like in Destiny 1, but if you’re going to double down on loot, go for broke. Imagine something along the lines of a Diablo loot system. Maybe not as extreme, because Destiny 2 will probably not have as many equippable slots, but a steady stream of meaningful gear that will have you swapping pieces out and building amazing sets to use in the future. There wasn’t an extremely large perk pool in Destiny outside of exotics, particularly for armor. If we can get more pieces, and even full sets, that can focus on specific skills and playstyles, it would take off the frustration of the usual grind.
Oh, and doing away with the one exotic rule may not hurt either. Holding amazing gear in front of someone that requires tons of work to obtain only to tell them they then have to choose one is just not cool. It’s understood that it’s a balancing thing, but if other RPGs can let me deck myself out completely in the bones of actual dragons, I’m sure something can be worked out for Destiny 2.
