How do you feel about the price of TTK DLC being £40 = $62.79 I simply cannot understand it. Why do we have to pay an extra $22.79 for a digital download?!
$40 = £25.55, add the 20℅ VAT the UK pays, and you are at £30.66 Not £40.
They have valued TTK at $40, not the price of a full game which is $60. Yet over here in the UK its valued at £40, which is the price of a full game. (Fallout 4 will be £42)
I bought Destiny brand new at release for £41.99, now they want £40 for TTK. It doesn't have as much content as vanilla Destiny did, so how can they charge the same price?
I know there any many more currencies affected, I'm just using it as its my currency.
Another point to make is, the day TTK was announced for purchase on the Xbox store it was £27.99 ($43.53) After 24 hours they bumped it to £40.
Can we at least get some answers please Bungie/Activision?
Thanks for reading, Remo.

2 RepliesI doubt Bungie will even address the matter, unless it's with something like "Hey, we don't set the price, it's out of our hands". They could speak to Activision and push the fact that the stupid price could well affect sales outside the US, but I honestly don't think they really give a damn. Thing is, if they are honest about their assessment of $40 as being good value for TTK, then they are essentially saying that pricing it above $40 would not be good value, but they'll probably just let it go. Enough people will likely pay it because they want it, or because they're using their parents' money, or because they don't care if some people are being ripped off.
