not at all. Some people like Destiny a lot and are willing to "catch them all" when it comes to this game. They have the money and want to spend that money on Destiny stuff. For me at least, this isn't a "keeping up with the jones's" thing but i can see how that could happen. But if people buy this out of peer pressure that's another problem. "to make a long story short....(why do they say that stan? it doesn't make it shorter)". Let people spend their money on what they want and don't let your insecurities get in the way of what other people do with their money. Even if this does become a pay to win game, It will only make the better people better (which is really, at best, 17% of a community). Selling a gjallarhorn with money (if they ever do that) won't make scrubs better over night. They'll still suck. It'll just make the emotionally immature people jealous that they can't just buy it too or won't out of some misplaced sense of ethics.
