Why were Machine Guns Removed?

[spoiler]*A Wild Gringo has appeared*[/spoiler] Hello all, I'm just here to voice a little question I'm surprised nobody has asked, why were machine guns removed from Destiny 2? We do know that Machine Guns are not in Destiny 2, with many sources citing this, namely Game Informer. I am not angry or something like that, just a bit perplexed as to why Bungie would remove a weapon type that has been far from troublesome. The best reason that I could see is that Bungie has stated that the new "Heavy" slot, now called Power Weapons, are for One Hit Kill weapons and Machine Guns are certainly not in that category. This still leaves the question of why not move it to the kinetic/energy slot? Obviously they would need to be adjusted in these slots heavily to make them on the same level as a pulse rifle or Auto Rifle. Still it seems like moving and balancing it would be optimal to all out removing it if it was simply because it did not fit into the power slot. Anyone have any other suggestions as to why perhaps this weapon type was removed?

  • all problem weapons got relegated to the power weapon slot. I don't have faith that D2 will be a decent game, from what Ive saw and heard at E3 this year. Sounds like very little has changed
