Look there is no perfect answer. Everyone has their ideals for what is right or wrong. Hell, Borderlands was a terrific game but eventually you would get to a point where some missions were available and they were basically in the way. Unless you were a completionist (blush) there was no reason to go through them as the rewards and challenges were nearly non-existent. The way this game is moving forward I am more than happy with a higher difficulty. It only allows me to learn. I get to replay things. I get to be in the game longer, learn its intricacies, feel immersed.
Keep things going the way they are IMO.
