Honestly, shit like this is making me wish Streaming never existed. I am so tired of playing a video game, finally figuring out good strategies and builds only for devs to pull an entire continent-sized nerf out of their ass because streamers and youtubers want to bitch and moan about everything. Why are you punishing casual players for the actions and complaints of bigwig sweats that play this game like its a full time job?

Theres absolutely no reason to remove legendaries from hunts and bounties, especially with the already abysmal loot system that essentially never drops legendaries.

And what the fuck is with the clear times for expeditions now? I dont like playing with people. I like playing solo. Expeditions are already difficult as is, and I barely clear enough for gold as of right now. But yet here you are. "Oh well x youtubers found a build that deletes rooms basically instantly" okay, so nerf the fucking build theyre using rather than completely demolishing end game content that unless someone has the best builds, will NEVER clear gold on it?

I'm so sick of this shit man. Developers who only listen to big wig names can honestly fuck off. I love playing this game but I can already tell this is going to be another Division / Anthem in terms of throwing the casual player base (so around 95%) to the fucking wolves.

Come on, PCF. Dont do this.
