Just for the record I do believe in "balance" , but after 5 years of consistently playing this game I've come to accept that Bungie has a track record with nerfing things into the ground.
It usually goes like this.
" we here at Bungie want to create an environment where powers enhance the players abilities to feel blah blah powerful, so we will be buffing said subclass."
Next season rolls out.
" we here at Bungie now realize something is too strong so we will be taking appropriate steps to balance AKA nerf something into the ground".
At which point does Bungie really notice these changes affect the quality of the game??
When said depressed streamer makes a video on it , or when enough people cry nerf and cozmo comes in here asking for feedback?
Why does Bungie tend to go such polarizing extremes to balance the game?
Is it perhaps to appease a group or simply to get people to keep playing their game.
One thing is clear to me.
They do not know how to balance this game.

Is it just me, or have you ever seen a company bow to such a vocal minority in gaming this bad before? It’s pretty sad and pathetic to be honest. The day the YouTube and Twitch fad is over can’t come fast enough.
