I'm sure they will give us what "they" want except it will be close to the launch of the new game. If that's the case I won't even bother with wasting my time in that case. Just like I stopped playing shortly after HoW. Why grind for countless hours for everything to become useless. The fact we have less exotics now kind of speaks for itself as well. I have and had such high expectations for this game. While they do listen to the community on a narrow range of topics they need to do more for the day one players to keep us around.

I think that one post I saw had a rather excellent point. Bungie pays too much attention to all the wrong things.

They need to take more advice from people that want what is best for the game. Some of us have been playing video games longer than Bungie has been a company has been around or longer than the lives of half of the player base. I am absolutely certain that most of what some us have asked for would improve the game and in the end increase profits. There are over a dozen "grindy mmos", I don't think that's the way for this game to go.
