[b]Bungie:[/b] Hey guys, we thought it would be cool to introduce cosmetic emotes that you can buy for real money. There's no pressure though!
[b]Player:[/b] Hmm sounds like a cash-grab, but as long as it doesn't affect how the game plays out I guess it's fine.
[u]*1 DLC Later*[/u]
[b]Bungieion:[/b] We were blown away by the positive feedback to Eververse's emotes! Now we are adding ships and shaders to purchase with Silver!
[b]Player:[/b] I remember when you used to be able to [i]earn[/i] everything in this game. But it's all still cosmetic, so whatever.
[u]*2 DLC's Later*[/u]
[b]Bungievision:[/b] We have heard some people say they want exclusive Sparrows. They are coming soon to Eververse!
[b]Player:[/b] Well, it's not going to have any real effect on PvP, so it's fair.
[u]*Destiny 2 Releases*[/u]
[b]Actibungie:[/b] It has come to our attention that some people can't get the right loot drops and are struggling to level up Light. Because of this, Tess will now sell Legendary and Exotic Armor Engrams for Silver.
[b]Player:[/b] Everyone gets unlucky every once in a while! This is a great way to give everyone an equal chance to buy higher Light!
[u]*3 DLC's Later*[/u]
[b]Activisionie:[/b] Eververse will now sell exotic weapon engrams that drop exclusive guns you can't find anywhere else!
[b]Player:[/b] Well, I guess you can already buy everything else in Destiny with real money!
[u]*4 DLC's Later*[/u]
[b]Activi$$$ion:[/b] It was a hard decision, but as a team we decided to ditch the current RNG-based loot system in favor of an all-microtansaction system. Each gun and armor piece must be purchased separately with Silver.
[b]Player:[/b] Yay! Now I can finally get literally everything I want just by paying!!
[u]*Destiny Expansion 2 Releases*[/u]
[b]Activi$$$ionEA:[/b] Big news! We are pairing up with EA in addition to Bungie! Also, Destiny will now require a $20/month subscription fee.
This is a dangerous game you are playing, Bungie. Do NOT let it get out of hand or you will lose many players like me who can see through your money-making schemes. Also, I shudder to think about this sinister implication: if what we are about to buy is called [i]Silver[/i], then what is...
....
.......
........... [i]GOLD??[/i]

8 RespuestasAnything past emotes, ships, and shaders and it's over for me. Cosmetic is fine. Once they start selling gear, time to move on to another game.
-
4 RespuestasWow ok. I think this trading company is cool, and i seriously don't get why so many people think it will lead to pay to win
-
Editado por Weebland: 10/6/2015 7:05:53 PMI dont think this will ever happen or if it does then it was inevitable. I've played rift and when they went free to play they added a cash shop as well. So of the things they sold in it was gear but it never was pay to win because the gear they sold wasnt the best you could get. Later on they let you buy some pretty good gear but it was so expensive no averge joe could buy it unless they made 20 an hour. What im getting at is if they go down that road (and i dont think they will) i hope they make the right choice by not selling gear that is the best you can get.

2 RespuestasIf this is such a deal breaker delete the "silver" they put in your account for free. Boycott...
-
4 Respuestasso... 4 free DLC's? dope. players buying gear so they don't constantly die in raid? dope. I see no problem here.
-
9 RespuestasOh look, another post about a thing that will never happen by a person who doesn't understand the video game industry. Cool.
-
4 RespuestasApparently we won't be paying for any content until Destiny 2. These micro transactions will help cover the cost. Everyone is jumping the gun and getting butt hurt when they don't know the facts. Why does everyone have to immediately jump on the negativity bandwagon. I can't stand pessimists. Let's wait and see what happens....

1 RespuestaIll buy a bit more silver in your memory.

3 Respuestasi can see them selling those light things that give you instant level 25 but one that gives instant level 40 for 39.99

6 RespuestasEditado por FROGGY: 10/6/2015 6:27:44 PMIts something all big Game companies want to push, its also going to be the downfall of the industry. Just make a Game I can own and enjoy, that's it and it works so don't -blam!- it up

5 RespuestasI lost count of how many times OP has said that this is not factual....

14 RespuestasThat's why I'm fine with this until they start making it gear. Emotes? Fine Shaders? Fine Ships? Sure. Emblems? Not an issue. If they make ghosts cosmetic again, and class items too? Sure. I'll take them too. It's not an issue. But the instant they sell gear I'm done. That's why I can't play warframe. I can barely play planetside. ESO's scheme or borderland's scheme or league's scheme is fine. Do not do a warframe. Under any circumstances.

1 RespuestaGoW3 did it, i think this all some chicken little bullshit, there is no slippery slope - just buy the emotes or don't/

-
1 RespuestaExactly my fear. I want this game to be good for the entire life of the franchise. I don't want it to be a micro-moneysucking-transaction game. Leave the pay to win on Mobile and move on.

4 RespuestasWhere is your evidence to support your claim?
-
8 RespuestasEveryone jumps to conclusions. They will never sell anything but vanity items. They know the shitstorm it would create amongst players and the media.
-
Very true. Good read this
-
And then Bungie builds landing strips for gay Martians!
-
8 RespuestasYou know if everyone who behaved just like this actually spent their time doing something productive instead of this dumb shit the world would probably be a better place.
-
they make a game that is addictive without micro-transactions and get you hooked then they add micro-transactions and you are screwed if the next DLC is not cheaper, or free due to this, I will be done with Destiny I dont plan on purchasing any more cosmetics after getting burned by the Collectors Edition

Conspiracies abound.
