Im only getting the $40 digital DL as I place no value on the shaders and such for $20
See I came into Destiny with the expectation of paying for DLC/Xpacs over time
I played WoW since Vanilla and understand the price models...every 18 months or so your world is changed in some way(skills...quests...endgame...old stuff gets replaced by new..etc)
Yes the ammount of content Blizzard puts out is vastly different(those monthly fees help that, along with 40-60 dollar Xpacs)...but with the new Xpac is not a whole new game...its an addon to what you have..each Xpac dont give you 60 new levels to grind like Vanilla...
Years ago Blizzard started giving the base game + Xpacs cheap...no one who walked into WoW during Wrath wanted to pay that full price for the old content and no one ran old stuff anymore(other then achievements)
Bungies problem is they are not sure what game they have here...is it a FPS or MMO
From what we know from Bungie(not the 40gb TTK size)...Taken King will be bigger then TDB and HoW combined and for that I feel 40 is worth it
The only argument I read now that has any merit is the US vs UK pricing...BUT I do not understand 100% how their system works...he may not be the most popular person but..It is foreign to me too
I will buy TTK...so far Destiny has provided more then enough hours of gameplay for me to want more...
For those that wont buy It...thats fine..its your money...I hope you enjoy what ever game you play as there is tons of good ones out and to be released

Edited by SweetZombieJesus: 6/28/2015 12:24:19 PMThis. For me the pricing seems fair in comparison to the rumoured amount of content with TTK. In regards to Wow, I've never played it... I've read that some of the great old areas (cities etc) are like these weird ghost towns now, empty, as people playing moved on to expansion areas. Sounds pretty cool that there's this virtual world full of dead cities... Well, cool and sad aft the same time

Yup...BC Xpac had Shattarath...was a major hub city during the Xpac...now its a ghost town with NPCs...Wrath had Dalarn..same thing No one runs old 5 mans unleess its for transmog and it can all be soloed seeing as ou outgear and outlevel it all 1-100 is a race now...you burn past the old content to get to the new...for a new player they may use the group finder to hit the old 5 mans as they level...but there is no reason to grind them for loot or xp(questing is faster) Not sayin Bungie is right but I think they dipped into the MMO style without the content to back it up Its too late in the game(Destiny 1) to make major changes now...but Id rather see Destiny 2 go more into the MMO stats and gear and how you level while keeping the solid FPS they have done now Just my thoughts

You are a breath of fresh air and made my headache slightly go away. Thank you

Great post and really good reasoning man. I agree it will be worth more than DLC thst has come before, I just don't believe it's worth MORE than both combined.
