The "new" enemies were just re-skinned old enemies.

I don't care visually, necessarily, though that sucks too.

I'm talking about the behavior. The fallen's tools were built to play together to make encounters play one way, the hive a different way, the vex different, the cabal different. Each set was well balanced inside itself to work, but they also worked well allying with other races.

Their evolution over time has been into gimmicks and spam that don't make encounters compelling at all.
