Unfortunately, not everyone is as blessed as you are! I have a degree but is impossible to work full-time thanks to stage 4 heart failure nothing I did genetics. I was an EMT and getting ready to pursue my Master's for Psychology until this diagnosis. Hospital bills alone have completely wiped any and all savings I had. Because, of my disability I can only make $1,700 a month, so factor in rent, car payment, insurance, and medications there is very little money at the end of the day for necessities much less games! A great friend got me my PS4 to help me pass the time on days I can't leave the house. So, for me $60 is a rather large investment well when you add in the add ons, that most certainly has to be purchased to get the whole experience it is more like $120. Now my particular beef is not with Destiny though after a week and a half it is getting a bit tedious. But, in my recent memory a game that was a total waste of money was BF4! A year later and that game still has serious flaws! What made me have the need to comment was you saying that because I think $60 is a lot of money I should just "quit at life; one less of you bottom feeders bringing down the human race would be a step in the right direction" is calloused and offensive. Just pray you never get sick buddy! Because 85% of all Americans are one major illness from bankruptcy!

  • Sorry to hear about your troubles, but to be perfectly honest you are an outlier. 95% of the people whining are not in your situation, they are teenagers and college kids who have too much time on their hands. If you took it offensively my response is to not be so sensitive about it and realize who the majority of the audience is because I'm not going to dumb down my response for the lowest common denominator.

  • Sorry to hear about your condition, but if 60 is breaking the bank, maybe you should of waited a few weeks after launch to decide about buying the game. Just my two cents.

  • Actually, you didn't read it all. I'm not having an issue with Destiny as I didn't get into all the hype! I played the beta enjoyed it waited a week and 90% of my friends were playing. Adding a friend gave me an iPhone I repaired and traded in so ended up not paying too much. To me the game doesn't feel broken a la BF4 but it doesn't feel complete either. I think they should have given the whole story not in depth but enough that I know that I've finished something. The DLC can go into the juicy details. Really why I responded is because of the guy practically saying people like myself should not participate in life because $60 is a lot of money to us. Thank God I don't live in his ideal world because I'd be considered a parasite and probably euthanized!
