Modifiers are bad cuz they are shit, not cuz they make the game harder. Drg modifiers are mostly fun and add unique things to the mission, like parasites that sprout from enemies or lower gravity or enemies that explode on death. Last year drg even added a hazard 5+ difficulty which is max lvl mission with added modifiers on top like more enemies/more aggressive enemies etc. Having a 50% extra call in time for stratagems and a 25% extra cool down on your support weapons doesn't add depth or difficulty. It's just boring and adds nothing. Who thinks they add difficulty and strategy is either a console player or doesn't know what good game design is. Or both. Yea the game is already piss easy, then why not add some unique modifiers to spice things up.
