For the past 5-6 seasons or so, it has seemed like Bungie has really bent over backwards to help the regular ole “Jim” in this games PvP scene. To clarify completely on where I stand with this, I think this would be perfectly fine; if they didn’t just crap on any and all the dedicated players’s hopes and dreams at the same time. Perfect example: Stomp-EE5 rework, while Ophidian Aspect is around the same usage; and Ophidians received a bit of a buff. Some more examples: Freelance ruins the pool of players each week in trials, just due to the fact people are too lazy to try and find a team. Competitive has been just as difficult as trials due to earlier implementation of SBMM. Cheese loadouts run more amuck then they ever have before. Fusions are far too overtuned, I mean do I need to continue? The point being that I’m trying to make, the game is becoming far too easy to do well in PvP. The more dedicated players need to be listened to just as much as all the casuals. Someone who plays PvE all day, shouldn’t be able to come into PvP and do well with a certain weapon simply because of how overtuned it is. (I’m looking at you Likely Suspect and Xur’s ingredient) I’m not saying that PvP should feel 100% competitive, because this game isn’t mean to be that. The least that could be done though, is for some actual skill gap to stay in this game. There’s no need to lessen that gap to please the regular casuals of this game in PvP. TL;DR- Casuals are being listened to too much in terms of PvP.
