Simple: It's the chassis that best suits the strategy I prefer to play.

Actually I think it's more likely that, like many others, you've decided that it's the chassis that best suits winning the game, and you prefer to win.

Discussions about balance issues are not "whining" - they are undertaken in an attempt to improve the game. If (and I concede this is an overstatement) strategy in Dom2 amounts to little more than choosing the VQ and hoarding clams, then clearly it will become a more complex and interesting game if those imbalances are corrected.

The impression I get is that Illwinter concedes that Dom2 is not as well balanced as it could be, and encourages these discussions. From time to time, they act on our advice and very few people dispute that the game is better for that.
