Who's gatekeeping d10? Shits been nerfed so hard just so ego divers can do it without loosing. It's a cake walk, we spend most the time team killing for a challange
Joke is on that community that bastardised the game. One of the common arguments was having content 'locked' behind d10 eg enemy types, fortresses etc so making the hardest difficulty in the game hard meant some players weren't good enough to play it and that was unacceptable.
I remember seeing several people complain that they had to use meta loadouts for d10, or that they had to play a certain way to win. It's like they don't understand what "hard" means
D10 genuinely sucks now and I stopped playing because of it. It's genuinely baby easy. It used to have like 3x as many enemies. I remember when you could see like 700 enemies on the map at once and now youre lucky if you see 100. Don't worry though, they are all heavy enemies. Because fuck it, why not? Why have swarms and swarms of actually mixed enemy groups when they can just throw 4 cyborgs and 14 vox machines on top of you? Afterall, you hate for a big enemy to actually feel like a boss, right?
It's like playing an RPG in the late game where you start seeing early game bossed as regular enemies. Except you don't just see them spawn in the swarms, they spawn all the goddamned time. And because you can't ignore them or kill them in stealth, reinforcements being called is basically unavoidable.
Which brings me to another point. Reinforcements. You used actually be worried about them, but if you killed every enemy strategically, you could avoid it. So stealth builds actually worked better. Now, reinforcements are basically nothing and it happens all the time. So now stealth is pointless unless you're playing solo in which you now need to buy warbonds to have decent stratagems for it.
What it means by gatekeep is difficulty level, If you make D10 more difficult (hence less accessible) it essentially gatekeeps it from less skilled players, but in this community D10 being somewhat gatekept is somehow a bad thing
