Stop saying microtransactions. Call it money transactions instead
Stop calling it microtransactions! There is nothing micro about it. Its called money transactions or loot boxes. its time to call it as it is. Let the community know, correct everyone, microtransactions is a corporation terminology so that it seems so harmless. Destiny community hold yourself to higher standards, damn people's.
Not many upvotes due to haters and corporation shills
I guess the trolls are up to attacks instead of conversation. Good job👍

Not many upvotes because there's no reason to. What good will a name change do? People know what microtransactions are. You bought the game at say $60, then the transactions you make at say $3-$5 for cosmetic items are then smaller transactions in the game you've bought... Microtransactions.

everyone knows what goddamn micro transactions are

I just corrected it for you: Stop calling it microtransactions! There is nothing micro about it. Its called GET A FU*KING JOB IF YOU WANT TO BUY COSMETICS THAT ABSOLUTELY DO NOTHING IN GAME BESIDES MAKE YOUR GEAR/WEAPONS HAVE DIFFERENT COLOURS or COSMETIC boxes. its time to call it as it is. Let the community know THAT ALL CRYBABIES ON THIS SUBJECT HAVE NO JOB WHATSOEVER, correct everyone, microtransactions is a corporation terminology so that it seems so harmless WHICH IN DESTINY IT IS. Destiny community hold yourself to higher standards, damn people's. Not many upvotes due to PEOPLE WITH BRAINS AND COMMON SENSE I guess the trolls are up to TEACH ME SOMETHING AND GIVE ADVICE instead of LOWERING THEMSELVES TO MY STUPID *SS LEVEL. BETTER job👍

Or just transactions because “money transactions” sounds stupid and is redundant.

1 AntwortenNot many upvotes because Bungie have actually finally removed the last vestiges of randomness from EV and with it the "loot box" aspect. This is EXACTLY what the community have been asking for since EV released in HoW; a way to DIRECTLY purchase vanity items. Also not sure if you're aware, but they had to lay people off when they split with Activision. They need a dedicated source of revenue for the studio to survive and there to be any future content for you or anyone else to play. So maybe drop the "I'm angry cuz it's popular" schtick and put a little more thought into your next post.

Bearbeitet von Jinx: 5/27/2019 8:00:43 PMIn the near future it probably will just go to dollar sign. Bipartisan legislation is gaining momentum that would totally ban all loot boxes and exp boosters among other things in every video game not marked adult only. As a result any game refusing to remove gambling boxes or p2w purchases including "item timers" such as those in warframe will be branded in the same category as pornographic games. As Bunghole, ea, Activision, de, others, are not going to have their games branded like porn in the biggest gaming market, the bill passing will result in changes to market places that had gotten by by using "casino chips" currency. This isn't a free speach issue because it's not censorship of message, it's regulation of deliberative addiction forming business practices that intentionally target minors which means the litigation is as legal as regulating sale of alcohol and tobacco to minors. *edited for autocorrect errors.

'Greed' is even shorter. Given how EV has affected the D2 reward loot pool since launch day, it really is nothing more than greed.
-
Yeah, those darn corporate shills at it again huh? Lol

6 AntwortenCall it what it really is, greed. At this point consumers should be boycotting any company that consists of shareholders. This situation is an inevitability of capitalism. Quite why we accept ever lowering standards in our products, whilst paying ever increasing prices is well beyond me.
-
there is nothing "micro" about them.
-
Well no, micro implies exactly what it is purchasing software content which constitutes a micrometer of physical space, I feel calling them something else will confuse the debate and create false sense about what a microtransactions is.
-
Okay so I must ask, are you just asking to change the name or something else? Transactions are not going to be removed from the game just like cores but you know this right? It's people's money and they can spend it how they feel, but with that said if Bungie ever goes the way of EA in Battlefront 2 then I will have issues
-
So you think the reason you don’t have more upvotes is because too many “corporate shills” frequent the Destiny forums? Lol. Maybe it’s just because we are all well aware of what a micro-transaction is and don’t need it renamed to something goofy like you suggested.
-
Whatever fancy name you put on it, you're still buying it at the end of the day. Don't give a product any other title than what it is.

Microtransactions is a term that has always been used by players. Corporations call it recurrent user spending. Please do not advocate for definition changes if you don't know what terms businesses are using.

1 AntwortenOPTIONAL micro transactions. Eververse has never forced you to drop money. If one of her exotics sparrows or emotes managed to entice you, then great on the marketing team. They gave you a product desperately wanted. Welcome to capitalism.

The game is a platform for upselling. Luke wants a new watch.

We need more character cosmetics ill pay for those ik bungie can do better with character customization.

5 AntwortenThey are charging $15 for a loading screen. Let that sink in.

Arguing semantics and basically nothing else isn’t really a substantial discussion point. It’s also not even cast in a Destiny-specific context or form of detail rather than as simply a global gaming issue, and even then again with no depth. It’s not going to generate much in the way of quality feedback or discussion or support when the discussion topic is so thin to begin with. Destiny was never the worst offender with micro-transactions. They’ve never been pay to win or as obnoxiously heavy handed as they often are in mobile games. It may be the case that Bungie needs MTX income right now to survive as a studio. It may not be; without having inside information on their financials, we can only speculate. Either way, attacking Destiny because of the presence of MTX, blaming the problems the game faces wholesale on MTX being present, or or just attacking MTX generally and randomly calling out Destiny while you’re at it...none of these seem particularly well motivated. I do think that Bungie hasn’t really delivered anything resembling a quality product or an acceptable return on the Annual Pass in terms of game maintenance since launch or content added, and I’m personally unwilling to spend anything additionally on the franchise in any form until they can prove an ability to push live a vastly superior level of quality.
