Recently, I've seen a lot of streamers complain about the state of the game.
It's too easy.
There is too much gear.
Everything should be rare.
And for the most part, I agree that there should be some rarity to level 6 armor. It should never, ever be purchasable, and should be bought with in-game contracts/mini-missions like kill Reshala 10 times in 2 days, or something difficult to give it a sense of worth.
But what I absolutely disagree with is how easy the game is. What these 'streamers' do not realise is, that not everybody can play for 40 hours a week. Most only play for 10-12 hours at the very most.
So with that being said – BSG, I think Tarkov is the MOST FUN it has ever been. Please don't let anyone change the direction you are heading in. Everybody has a chance to run the best gear, and it is still very expensive.
There is an abundance of playstyles now. I remember, before the flea market – you had to find best-value single slot items and be a real chad. Now, you can sell junk and make TONS of money. Rats can survive.
BSG, you are awesome, thank you for all that you do.
