I bought the Destiny PS4 when the game launched. I knew I was basically signing up for World of Halocraft and all the bs that comes with it.

But what did surprise me was how poor the execution was. Every single DLC made all the previous gear/items COMPLETELY USELESS.

    isn't this how MMOs work ? you're asking for horizontal fearing which is less traditionally(GW2 does it) but most MMOs do not.

    FFXIV also kinda avoids this as well, if you grind for endgame gear it tends to carry you to a little over the halfway point or to the end of the next expansion before the patch cycles start. Like gear from 7.55 (last patch of old expansion) should carry you through most of 8.0 (new expansion launch).

    Not exactly. Did you play the first seasons? Basically every dlc there were items you'd farm to buy gear (or something it's been a decade now and I forget) that became completely obsolete when the next dlc came out.

    Most rpgs you can sell those items. But in Destiny you had to delete them.

    I played tf out of MMOs. It wouldn't have stood out to me if it was at all a typical experience.
