So, you're overjoyed that Thorn is nerfed? Perhaps you're happy Gally is nerfed so you will be included in more reindeer games? Maybe, just maybe you resent that effective Icebreaker such you need it crippled for spite? Point is, Destiny is few promises with even fewer rewards. Destiny is not creative or innovative. It doesn't roll out new weapons so powerful as to eclipse the old ones but it does buff the trash heap so we may regret sharding that Hard Light. It does nerf everything you worked for, breaking what little contract it had with you. They even trash that 'upgrade' your 50 material intensive reforges won you. I'm reminded of that Pacino rant about God. "[i]I swear, for His own amusement, His own private cosmic gag reel, He sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. Look, but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste, don't swallow. Aha ha ha. And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is He doin'? He's laughin' His sick, f--kin' ass off"[/i]. This is not; despite Bungie's claims, an issue of balance which is, at best a distraction and a major reversal of an untenable philosophy: [u]a progressive PvE experience CANNOT coexist with a balanced PvP one.[/u] This move is another in a long list of efforts by Bungie to move the bar, demand more effort (where & how they want it) and break another contract - without having to do (or deliver) a damn thing. [b]If you're happy about the '2.0' change then I'm happy for you. [u]I'm not happy for what you've created or the backs you took it off of to get it.[/u] [/b] ----------------------------------------------- The Morning After Edit... [i]Thanks for the support and even the absurd debate. It appears there will be vendettas upsetting the 'new balance' and this fraud has made a few people leave the Tower, including Xur. Keep it up, bad press is the only thing that'll labotomize this 'philosophy'. Cheers[/i] The Evening After... Xur's safety is apparently at risk if he delivers a weapon (somehow) and our new boy Cozmo has thus far responded to 3 whole forum postings. Definate proof they value our feedback enormously. Final Edit.... Thanks for the support & debate, much of which was good. 1200+ comments (though suspiciously little trending - hmmmm). [i]Anyway, 2 to 1 are against (Nerfaggedon) and adamant and even those who are happy are split in confidence.[/i] -------------------NOW------------------- [b]If you want to set a deadline for response and action,[/b] go here. Thanks all, good luck. [b]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/139854136/0/0[/b]
