@JonStriker126 I definitely understand your point too and it’ll likely also be the case but I rarely hear that someone actually buys levels XD. That’s where your theory comes in that if they make it a lil grindier without looking that way you either get
A) players engaging more which equals more time spend in-game and liking it meaning possibly more gold in the vault of the safe of EA
B) more suckers buying levels to keep up.
Either way EA wins so your theory isn’t wrong.
BUT if players see or calculate or reddit or Streamer follow someone that says that it’s much harder as opposed to slightly harder, there will be an outcry again which Respawn will have to rectify and that means no money as ppl once again lose faith :P
That said I dont want any company... gaming company (XD) to fail. I want all of them competing which gives us gamers more and better games.
No need to say that you are a caring gamer. As you point out, you wouldn’t be a multi-poster on a forum if you werent xD. Even if you were all negative nancy, that would only mean you’re a bigger supporter who just wants the best.
Here’s just to hoping that it’s almost the same

@Koochi-Q
Thank you. I appreciate your candor and it's nice to have a civil discussion on a forum (something that has seemed to be lacking in recent years, based on the time I've spent on multiple game forums in the last 5 years or so). So, again, I thank you for that. It is nice to see.
As for the overall topic at hand, I agree. And I do hope that things stay in a good place or hopefully strive to be better in terms of game design and player enjoyment. Personally, there have been multiple things that Respawn have done that I've enjoyed (everything from small QoL stuff to big buffs), but of course there have things I've disliked as well. Such is life, I suppose.
But, I do see where you're coming from with your last point. I mean, a little less grindy, a little more, that's doesn't really matter. Almost meaningless at the end of the day. Because if this change does really make things a lot more grindy, you're right, they won't be able to escape that. I mean look what happened with the shield changes in S6.
Basically, if something in this game causes a big enough stink (either positively or negatively), I'm sure it will be heard about across the land (haha). And, if it's negative (to the point of being unbearable for a large enough portion of the player base), it will most likely be addressed. Especially, if it threatens cash flow.
