At this point, it feels like Bungie have tried every way of altering difficulty. They've played with enemy health and enemy density, tried adding timers, mechanics, modifiers, loadout restrictions and level caps, made us prepare loadouts in advance to deal with Champions and Match Game etc. Not all of these were hits, but no matter what they do, it always upsets [i]someone[/i], and that's an unfortunately common theme with this game. You see it with changes to balance and matchmaking systems too. It's impossible to satisfy everyone, and the players who don't like a new change are far more vocal about it than those who do, so they end up changing it again and upsetting a different set of players. The other side of the coin is our power, which has hugely increased over time. The best showcase for this is old Dungeons, Shattered Throne in particular. It now feels like the bosses in there would die to a slight breeze, because we've outgrown the difficulty they were set at 5 years ago. Back in D1, just completing a Raid and beating the boss was good; now, it feels like a disappointment for many teams if they take longer than two damage phases. If something new takes three phases or more, then people whine than it's overtuned and needs to be nerfed. In the power cap system that we have now, Legend difficulty was the biggest casualty. Many players were happy to do stuff at that level because it was easy, and they felt like they were accessing the endgame. The changes came as a shock to people who don't regularly play beyond that. What's not talked about enough, though, is that Master Raids, Master Dungeons and GM Nightfalls all got easier at the same time. There is also a hypocrisy between people saying they love the difficulty of the Legendary campaigns, but hate Legend difficulty, even though both are -15 power.
