I've been saying this to my friends for a while. Bungie said they made NF easier for us, the gamers, but that isn't true NF IMO is not any easier. They took out return to orbit, but with that they took out the weekly exp buff, burn damage went from an equal x3:x3 to a x2:x3, and they also removed exotics. So obviously it wasn't in our favor by the slightest. The old NF I was basically guaranteed 1 exotic if I ran all three characters through. Many weeks would be 2 exotics and on the rare occasion all 3 would receive one. Now I'm considered insanely lucky if I get one to drop. For me this has actually reduced my playtime. I no longer play the NF as the rewards aren't worth it. I've also stopped running strikes for the most part as 3oCs seems to be broken for me as well. The raid is not worth the frustration when the drops aren't there. Now I tend to run challenge only. Some weeks I'll pay golgoroth a visit as well.
