I feel like Respawn stole my money!

Loved the gym analogy. Very true.

Though I have to say that I never got from NickBeam27​ that he expected to get to Master with nothing more than an RE45. Maybe I mis-read.

And I will also add this: casual players are 95% of the game. Or at least they were. The people you describe who spend thousands of hours aim training... sure, I applaud their... what would you call it? Insanity? Tenacity? Their complete inability to understand the concept of diminishing returns? Their lack of a real job? But in the end they're still a very small percentage of players. Who should the game be built around? The sweats who pretty quickly become (or become indistinguishable from) cheaters, or the "casual" everyday weekend warriors? Pretty sure I know how you would answer that question. And I'm equally sure I would argue with you on the point. But I'm wandering way off topic. Ignore me.
