The Destiny 2 1.1.4 update coming tomorrow will rain buffs upon us, as we noted earlier this month: Faster Crucible respawns, more accessible power ammo, quicker ability cooldowns, and of course upgraded guns—because at the end of the day, it's all about the firepower. In a video released ahead of that update, design lead Josh Hamrick talked a bit about why the studio is taking the game in this direction. 

Hamrick summed up the approach by explaining how the team picked out a few weapons that are "kind of hot—probably too hot for D2," as he put it. But instead of nerfing them, which is what would have happened in the original Destiny, the plan now is to "bring everything else to them."
