Tl/dr at end of post.
You're actually dense if you didn't see these needs coming.
How much fun do you think this game would be after another 3 months of using the exact same loadouts for activities?
What about 6 months? A year?
If you don't understand why Bungie is nerfing the overused and overpowered gear, then why play a looter MMO?
Let's say Bungie buffs everything up to whisper level good. What does that mean for game encounters? Endgame encounters? I don't think it'd be very fun to steamroll every boss in the game using the same loadout every week, every month, every year of this games lifespan.
D2 is slowly becoming much more of a looter game, Bungie nerfing these weapons and armor pieces makes room for more variety. Now players can run say... Darci, which was previously overshadowed by whisper and had no reason to be used.
This can also be said about armor pieces as well. Nerfing Skull and Phoenix protocol gives players alot more options to use, like nezeracs sin, or lunafactions (given the whisper nerf.)
If you can't adapt to loadout changes, then why play a looter game?
Tl/dr: Games like destiny need constant loadout change. Without it, the game will get even more stale than it already is.

Edited by Orca (Adept): 5/18/2019 9:27:04 PMDon’t put this on the players. Bungie created weapons and armor metas that “broke the game” to this extent to begin with. THEY are responsible and they KNEW exactly what they were doing. When you allow your player base to have something great and then you take it away of course people are naturally going to be upset. If they don’t want people to have power then they should stop releasing gear that does so. Yet they release this gear anyway. I’m guessing that if the didn’t allow power on a limited basis then we would be in the Destiny 2, Year 1 meta when people were abandoning this game. This is by design. Another thing, don’t tell people HOW to play. If it works for you then great. People paid to play the way they wanted.

Happens all the time in other games. People complain for a bit and get over it. Stuff gets buffed, stuff gets nerfed. [quote]People paid to play the way they wanted.[/quote] Yeah, but Bungie in the end decides the goals of the challenge activities should be. They realize pieces start breaking their game, they would be stupid NOT to nerf them.

If they didn’t ALLOW the players to experience power this game would have sunk by now. So yes, I agree. They will allow the feeling of power again in the future and take it away with nerfs. They know what they’re doing, they gotta keep things interesting. Can’t sell Destiny 3 if Destiny 2 dies an ugly D2, Y1 meta death.

Of course they were going to add alot of power to the game. Everyone and their mother was complaining about weak exotics so they buffed some up to Orpheus rigs standards and it broke the game. They should have nerfed them down almost immediately, but that is likely because most of Bungie isn't working on D2 right now are they? 80% of their company at minimum are working on D3, while the skeleton crew are realizing "oh sh** this new content we have been working on for months is completely broken right now by X exotics." They needed to nerf these sooner, get over it.

Get over it? This is merely entertainment. Over it, under it, whatever you want to call it.
