Destiny's monthly subscription.

I believe Destiny is heading for the subscription model. A small monthly fee like [i]Netflix,[/i] that includes all regular updates and fixes and [b]DLC.[/b] It removes these endless value debates about the content included in expansions, because people simply accept a regular fee for entertainment and forget about it. You pay for Netflix, PlayStation plus, Xbox Live etc, along with various other services - You'll pay for Destiny too if they sell it right. It saves a fortune in marketing if you can recruit players as regular subscribers in a Warcraft style campaign. I think we'll see this option before the game's ten years is up, the tide is turning in the way we pay for entertainment.

  • There's a subscription built in. We pay the subscription when we bought the expansions and will continue the subscription when we buy TTK

    • Its possible that they could try it for about six months or something and see how it turns out. Personally I prefer the dlc plan, mainly because I don't want to go through periods of not playing destiny and then still be paying out, with subscriptions you feel obligated to play just because you paid for it.
