Wow bungie, you really think we're complete morons don't you?

Just read bungie's response to the exclusives coming in the new collectors edition. And all I have to say is wow, Luke smith really thinks we're all braindead zombies doesn't he? He genuinely talks like he's expecting us to buy the collectors edition just for the extra bonuses and he doesn't give a -Blam!- about it. Not to mention he completely glosses over the UK pricing, stating practically outright that he doesn't give a damn. I knew bungie took a turn for the worse after destiny came out but I never expected it to be this bad. /rant [url=http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-06-22-destiny-the-taken-king-director-defends-40-expansion-price-tag]Link for those curious[/url] Edit: Wow, I really didn't expect this thread to get so much traction, good to know the destiny community finally agrees on something.

    • I think Bungie's employees are completely retarded. Because after that much complainant about how expensive Taken Wallet is, they just ask for more money? Yep, they are retarded

          As if Luke Smith interview wasn't inflammatory enough (he was worked with 1up and Kokatu previously, so he's not clueless https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luke_Smith_(writer) ) , the arrogance shown by Deej's comments (CE soldout go on eBay to buy it overpriced) tells me there's a disconnect between what Bungie defines as listening to the community, fan loyalty, and being about the $$$. I come from a corporate world. I get it. It's a business and you have to make money. Getting $500M indebted to a publisher is huge. But there are better solutions that could've been provided. http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2015/06/22/bungies-disastrous-taken-king-interview-could-have-ramifications-for-destiny/ I have been a Bungie fan for many years. Ever since Halo 1, I've played and read anything I could get my hands on with the Halo universe and lore. So imagine my excitement when Destiny was announced with all of the aforementioned features. Initally, I pre-ordered the Limited Edition Destiny Bundle for PS4, in addition to the white PS4. I waited to see the official reviews (which mysteriously took almost two weeks after launch) and customer reviews to hold final judgement. I'm so glad I returned my limited edition PS4 game copy. I instead grabbed an amazing deal far below the retail price, and bought it for both systems as I had friends on both platforms. I drank the kool-aid. I have over 10+ days worth of game time. I'm 34 on all characters. 100% achievements. I'm level 30 on all PS4 characters. I loved what bungie did and stood for. They were in my eyes that last golden studio who cared about fans, but not anymore. There's a lot to like: The game design is beautiful, the soundtrack if fantastic, and the gameplay is tight. But after Luke Smith / Deej comments and the egregious greed on exclusivity and pricing from Bungie/Activision I'm done with it. The over zealousness and cockiness that transpired showed the true colors. They clearly don't care to about us and address the myriad of other issues that are continuously being posted everyday, while Bungie claims to be listening to their fans (thinking about Guardian facial hair implementation is not listening to the major issues). I truly believe from a game environment/design standpoint they have hit a wall in terms of what adjustments and tweaks they can make due to the limitations of the older gen systems. The recent comments from Deej in regards to Year 1 ascended weapons and vault space ( http://youtu.be/s8SwrFn-oZE , skip to the 10:30, 12:20 mark) make my investments in all the work of weapon collecting and ascending moot. ALL THAT HARD WORK for what? Come Sept 15th I will walk away from this game. I'm going to be heartbroken for a bit. This was one of my first exposure to social gaming on this level. Truly addicting experience. I'm really grateful for all the player friends I've made along the way. Hope to play you guys on other triple AAA titles coming this fall and next year.

          • I don't think I blame Bungie... Activision have always been money grabbing whores, it's just a shame Bungie aren't putting their foot down on this bullshit.

              • Though really rude, some of the stuff he said about gamers mindlessly buying some of crappy useless stuff is true... We need to be smarter about our purchases to let Bungie know that we need more bang for our buck!

              • I really feel like this whole "$20 for digital content" crap is all Luke Smith's idea, so that he can show everyone that he was right. That the players are dumb sheep that will buy anything.

                  • I found his comments rather frustrating (as I no doubt believe the interviewer was feeling). He seemed to miss the point and continue on with his pre-scripted talking points.

                          • I feel the problem is that all game devs have to do is show people some pretty stuff, then boom preorders up the ass, why follow though with whats shown in little pretty trailers when they already got you're money? I wish everyone didn't preorder crap intill game/dlc came out that way game devs are forced to give us what's promised. Anyone agree?
