</blockquote><p>Yeah, that's true. Bungie hasn't normally been someone who just puts up blanket text. It's always been streamlined. I guess this makes me above average? :D</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>it narrows down between “gaining progress” and “not gaining progress” and is a quick visual directive to keep you from thumbing through every item. Without fully listing everything out in Tower Excel(tm) you are always going to habe tradeoff in information value.</p>
</blockquote><p>I get you.  I'm saying &quot;making progress&quot; or &quot;not making progress&quot; is meaningless information to me if I don't know <em>what</em> the thing is that is progressing or not, so I had needed to interact with each one individually every time.  And, I suppose the thing I have not said is I think that's true for most people.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I hinted at my guess in the postscript of the bog post I made, but I think it was to better support tracking progress in the hud/multiple tracked items which you could not do with the more triumph based system.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>That's a great way to know how far along something is as long as you don't want to know what it is or how to progress it further. If you want that, you will need to interact with it.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><blockquote><p>Is there a limit?  I grabbed every bounty I could and didn't see anything that said there was, but if it is limited to 2 pages that undercuts my enthusiasm a good bit.</p>
</blockquote></blockquote><blockquote><p><br />
It's at least 3 pages from the amount of bounties I got today...</p>
</blockquote><p>Ah. It never suggested I could add more pages; I guess I made a bad assumption. (As I said, I only got within one bounty of filling the second page, so I didn't actually CONFIRM that you couldn't pick up a 65th... and apparently that would be wrong anyway.)</p>
<p>Okay, never mind. ;) I still don't like it, but my complaint about a measly 25% increase is obviously incorrect.</p>

I can't keep all the names of gear straight, I'm not going to be able to memorize a different icon for every possible bounty and quest.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just think it is funny because they already have made answers to these questions. The way Collections, Triumphs, and D1 Record books and Quest Tab would all be examples of something substantially better than what the current pursuits tab is. It seems strange to me to try to fully reinvent over and over.</p>
