Bungie doesn't "get" why shotguns will never be good in PVE (Destiny)

I remember wanting to use a shotgun occasionally in halo. That may back up the theory that it's because the enemies behaved in a different way. It's true that for light switch I fear melee much more than I did in halo. But I also feel like it has to do with the shotguns power. If a shotgun was almost always a one hit kill but I had to be much more conscious of my available ammo and my distance from a forced reload than with other weapons. that would balance it out enough. So, basically I agree but I'm not as hopeless about the chances of changing it. Maybe this is why we have seen lightswitch used less over the past few weeks.
