This is a repost of something I wrote a few months ago and I felt it needed to be updated due to the latest round of nerfs this week. I have to say that after nearly 2 years and almost 1500 hours spent in game, I'm done. I just can't continue to play a game that does nothing in the long run but let me down and piss me off. I've invested enough time and money into this game and i just won't do it any longer. I've held off on purchasing RoI for just this reason, I was hoping against hope that Bungie would turn over a new leaf and reevaluate the way they balance this game, I was a fool to believe for even a second that things would change. Best of luck to you all, it's been a pleasure my fellow guardians. Neither Fallen, Hive, Vex, Cabal, Taken, Atheon, Crota, Skolas or Oryx have ever once complained about any of our weapons or abilities being OP and asked for them to be nerfed. However, a certain element of crucible players do so on a daily basis. They, and their kind, are the only "OP" thing in this game because for some ungodly reason Bungie continues to listen to them. They are the true enemy of this game! This is not my opinion, this is a fact. These people are ruining this game 1 nerf post at a time. Every time one of these crucible players dies one of our favorite weapons or abilities gets destroyed in the name of "balance." Myself, and a large portion of the player base, are primarily PvE players. How does anything happening in the crucible relate itself to anything happening in the PvE activities? Why should their tears cost us our favorite weapons or abilities? This list is far from extensive or complete(if someone would like to take the time I'd love to see it) -Vex Mythoclast -Suros Regime -The Last Word -Thorn -Hawkmoon -Pocket Infinity -Mida Multi-Tool -Red Death -Dregs Promise -Touch of Malice -Universal Remote -Auto rifles in general(damage, range, accuracy) -Pulse rifles in general(damage) -Hand cannons in general(range, accuracy, phantom bullets) -Shotguns in general(damage, range, movement speed, equip speed) -Fusion Rifles in general(damage, range, bolt travel speed) -Sniper Rifles in general(damage, flinch) -Ammo for gods sake! -Almost every single class except defender titans have received nerfs and tweaks which ultimately make them weaker All of this "balance" to try and plug the neverending river of tears flowing from the crucible. It's ruining this game, it NEEDS to stop, but it never will. This is the culture Bungie has created by continuously buckling to the constant cries for nerfs. What happened to Becoming Legend? It's simple...we became legend, but they've "balanced" us into mediocrity! Would love to hear Cozmo or Deej, or even John W. himself weigh in here, but it'll never happen.
