What? You and many other who left don't like the increase in difficulty? OK, I am with you on that. Fun AND Engaging AND Rewarding; is what should be the focus for the dev team. Yes there should be harder difficulty levels for those that enjoy that challenge in game. Absolutely we need that, but the base game and base level story missions, should not be a slog fest for average players. Bungie does not get it. In light fall they made the game so hard and so focused on the DEV's social agenda that they lost a ton of players. Bungie has continued with the same "Harder is better" mentality. They are catering to the elite players base and streamers. Just look at who they invited to come to the studio to play the next expansion ahead of release; streamers! Bungie does not care about making the game feel fun or rewarding for the average player.
