Honestly, I used to log into D2 every day. Some days I did hard stuff like master raids, GMs, etc.
Other days I logged in just to chill and do easier stuff while I hang out with people.
With the entire game's floor being raised up, it makes the easier stuff more tedious, and it makes it less chill.
Like, Bungie, no one's loading into Vanguard Ops looking for "a challenge". Especially considering that it's not a challenge. Things just hit a little harder. Strikes don't have wipe mechanics, and they're impossible to fail.
I'm so exhausted by how the game is now. Everything feels like running through sand. Sure I can do it, but it doesn't feel good, and I don't really want to.
Please consider changing some of this stuff back to what it was.

-5 is not a big deal. Strikes, dungeons and raids on normal were being sped through so they added it to strikes as well to make it more “engaging”. However this was not the solution. Strikes need a reason for people to play and grind them and so do dungeons. They should look at that instead of making things “harder”.
