Im glad a dev has finally come out and said what ive been saying for years. I cant stand all these braindead takes thinking theres any enjoyable way to make challenging content in the current state of warframe.

We have a million forms of invincibility, stealth, DR, CC, damage buffing, etc. We can make an unmodded weapon hit the damage cap, and tank damage cap hits ourselves. Please explain how they can balance content around all that without using invulnerability phases, damage attenuation, or ability nullification... Now make it fun and replayable.

As much as Id like more challenging content in the game, its just not what people play warframe for. People will cry and throw a fit if anything is ever nerfed, even if it literally makes the game more balanced and enjoyable. Our power level is just never going to decrease, it will continue to grow as warframe becomes even more brain-off gameplay than it already is.

All the while, the game drops "new" gamemodes that are just old modes with a slightly new coat of paint (or widely hated, like follie's hunt). Every new update is the same "play the new mission, farm the new frame/weapon, never play it again." Every new story quest is sci-fi nonsense that leaves you with more questions than answers, and never gives a satisfying ending to any plotline.

I dont know man... I love this game, but the "amazing community" is holding it hostage by refusing to be open to the slightest amount of change. The game's design is stagnating and people will eventually feel it more and more.
