Hypothetical - Guardian Trainer (Destiny)

Surely the pacing of the game and missions are such that the loot is a crucial part of the flow and experience.

This is the unknown right now. We already know that there's going to need to be some kind of level progression required. However, can Bungie design the game so that you can go from mission to mission, piece to piece, and play them all in a progression without having to grind?

My hunch is no, given the ubiquity of filler quests and the nature of explore mode, as well as their plan to keep people playing for ten years.

It will be interesting to see how this aspect is in the final.
