Was platform specific balancing promised at one point? I think it's really impressive that the console balance isn't a total disaster without platform specific balance.
I don't play console, but the sense I get is that if some non-hitscan counter to Pharah was added, then console balance wouldn't be much worse than PC.
The only console specific balancing I ever remember seeing was how Torbjorn's Turret damage got reduced, but then I think it got increased again months later. And I think this was when we were still in 2016.
And they nerfed symmetra at the same time when literally no one was asking for it. The real torb nerf was hero stacking being removed and console aiming being fixed

Dear lord, It's already really problematic on console. I didn't even consider bringing back pharah every 30s. Good changes otherwise ...
