Let me balance this game

[Vanquish]

Have you noticed a very clear line between the demographic of who voted for what? Because it is quite humorous.

Absolutely. The majority (not all) of competitive players want Larry to balance the game because he's going to prioritise competitive gaming scenarios with his weapon balancing.
Meanwhile, the people voting against are simply people who don't want that (devs for obvious reasons, pub-only players since the majority of them won't know any better, and competitive players who don't trust Larry). I still feel as though some people are voting based on their personal opinions of Larry rather than on what would be objectively best for the game, and it's for reasons like this that conducting a poll is something of a moot point, because nothing will ultimately come of it.

If nothing else, though, it's nice to see that Larry's ideas are garnering significant support.
