[quote]The game is so boring and restrictive now.[/quote] Yes, it is. You can use your "old" weapons like I do. But it isn't optimal for progression. If you want the "best" out of it, you have to play like Bungie wants you to: using current armor and weapons. I don't like it either, but that's how it is with "Edge of Fate." Bungie changed almost everything with that new DLC. How this works can be seen... In the meantime, Sony hired ex-Bungie developers, established a new studio with them called "TeamLFG," with headquarters in Bellevue, WA, the same place as Bungie has his headquarters, and set them to produce a new live service game. It looks like it wasn't all that bad, developed formerly by Bungie. Edit: I don't like the Portal. Everything is centered around it, including Seasonal Challenges. I avoid it. Instead of, I take the planetary tour for bounties with the Director. I like diversion.
