But the new info is still pretty terrible?... (Destiny)

Otherwise we'd all have a full inventory of 323 weapons by christmas :)

And do you know why that is a bad thing?

There is certainly an argument to be made that the expansion should just be about delivering more stuff to do; that character progression should be about adding more options, not gaining power. For better or worse, Destiny is clearly not that kind of game.

Personally, I enjoy the climb through the upper ranks. The feeling I get of increasing my character's power, range of abilities, finding newer and deadlier weapons... it's all part of the fun for me. So I want that to continue. Farming for materials was always a drag, but I don't mind a slow progression as long as I can progress by doing things I enjoy.

Now I totally understand why some people don't enjoy this kind of game. But this is what Destiny has been from the start. If I didn't enjoy this style of progression, I wouldn't be playing Destiny :)
