Sooo, new videos of The Division show a lot of bullet sponge enemies and marshmallow shooters.
Some say this is good RPG mechanics because RPGs are won by managing stats and not shooting skills.
Other say this is a travesty of an FPS and a black mark on the Tom Clancy name.
Vote!
Edit: The people have spoken, and forum goers do not like bullet sponges. I predict negative beta reactions are inbound. I also hope Bungie keeps this in mind as they develop "Destiny 2".

People don't realize that your weapons are only a part of your dps. Meaning skills, gear and weapon bonuses (perks) can increase your damage. Might as well just release dlc for watch dogs that give it an rpg feel or you could not. The only real bullet sponges will be "boss" or names enemies. Played the alpha and easily killed random/normal enemies. People seem to think that every enemy is going to require 2-3 clips of AR and that is idiotic. Like destiny they want you to play with friends and in doing so normal missions will most likely be a cake walk. They have stated that there will be harder difficulty missions that will reward better loot (these are not raids).
