i heard a good review saying, that you work hard to earn the gear, and when you used it you are rewarded with it getting worse. thats why they are glad there isnt weapon decay, so you focus more on having to IMPROVE than maintain. which is also the thought process of todd howard. when looked at in that light, its alot better. i was disappointed at hearing they got rid of repair, but i think i will like where they are going with it more.
