No it wasn't. Just because you want it for free doesn't mean it is poorly executed. It is more of a premium design with custom animations and sound effects. If you really want it spend $5. Otherwise keep to yourself.

Edited by Heretoch: 10/27/2015 8:08:06 PM"Premium designs" are great in free to play games. However, Destiny is far from free. This is called a [i]cash grab.[/i] You make it sound like he's begging to get something that he should pay for free, but it's the other way around. The indoctrination is tough, but you have to fight that mindset.

What's wrong with a cash grab if it doesn't impact the mechanics of the game in any way, shape, or form? If he wants it that bad he can pony up the money for it.
-
But why should it not be free? To say otherwise is to put the agendas of corporations ahead of that of yourself and your fellow consumer.
-
Because we live in a capitalist country? Because our entire economic foundation is built on the free market? If a company wants to charge money for something and people want that object they have to pay. I don't know what to tell you. If you don't like that you should consider moving to a Scandinavian country.

Believe it or not, even capitalism should benefit the everyman. It's a key principle that many seem to forget.
-
It seems like you disagree with the morality of the economic system at its core. Which is fine, to each his own. That doesn't change that it's a cornerstone of American society. I see an item that is wholly cosmetic and will actually hurt my chances at completing in game content. So I don't buy it. That's all the skull mask means to me.
-
No problem in buying it but you are NOT guaranteed to get it even if you want to buy it. That's the slimy part. Off topic sort off..It's £7.99 in UK which is about, what $13?
-
That's roughly $12. I think the conversation rate is around $1.50/£1 right now.

I see you, intelligent person. Don't let them catch you out here. They're animals.
