It's pure rancid faggotry
No fucking singleplayer game should ever be doing patches to nerf shit. RIP to the original knight-enchanter from DA:Cisquisition.

I think same happened with that 1 cool shield in Dark Souls 1 but it wasn't as run breaking as in 2

believe it or not this is actually because the dev is smarter than you and understands game design better. here are how the 2 different scenarios play out:

>find op weapon
>"wow this is awesome, i love this weapon!"
>kill everything
>game becomes trivially easy
>get bored after 3 or 4 hours of winning everything

vs.

>weapon gets nerfed
>"wtf! they nerfed my favourite weapon! these devs suck!"
>continue playing anyway
>game is challenging
>struggle creates genuine emotional response and feelings of satisfaction when you overcome the struggles
>game is still interesting 50 hours later
