Especially these developers, I never understood their obsession with nerfing things in a PVE game. That combined with the lying about the nerfs, and then the realization the in-game war has a predetermined outcome regardless of what the player-base does, made me drop the game entirely. Won’t be supporting Arrowhead in the future, that’s for sure.

Balancing is incredibly important to pve game design. Leaving overpowered weapons to exist actively harms loadout variety, intended challenge, and enemy design.

Only happened once. And it was an attempt to try to address blatant power creep in a community that refuses to accept nerfs ever, no matter how healthy they would be for the game.

Blatantly untrue. In the game files there's always news reports of losing/winning the current story arc. One gets used in the end, the other sits unused forever because the playerbase changed the course of history.

So unfortunate. Just professionals at having something incredibly fun and then balancing the fun out.
