How much have you spent on Silver...?
Be honest, no trolling with your answers please.
For me personally, it's $0.
I kind of feel guilty about other players funding the free events like The Dawning whilst I contribute nothing, although after watching that video I'm not so sure anymore...

ZERO. just doesn't make sense to me to pay for something that gives no benefit to gameplay. i'm not saying there's anything wrong with it, if that's what you like - do it. but i have never understood the desire that people have to collect armor sets. it's a first person shooter. i cannot see my armor while playing. i just pick and choose armor based on how much resillience/recovery it gives. because most times when you get a full set, the perks suck. oh, good, my Titan has max mobility. YAY! don't care about ships/sparrows either. ships are basically just loading screens. and sparrows don't really matter. you can pick up a 160 speed one from basically anywhere.

It falls under discretionary spending and is lumped in with other activities, so it's not like I line item track Eververse. The pool of available funds per month is pretty high so, who knows. I do know, I haven't blown an entire month on Eververse, that'd 've -blam!-. Plus there'd be some Single dancing moms that would have to go without for a month and I would feel bad about it.

I've spent $20 the 1st week the game was out and got a ton of cool stuff plus I wanted some purple mods for my stuff and I got an Exotic emote that I never use any more. Then I spent $20 again because I ran out of purple mods and glimmer and didn't want to grind to get them and there was a dance emote up that I wanted but didn't have any silver dust. Then I spent $10 at the end of season one because I needed one more piece of the Optimacy armor for my Titan and didn't have any dust....I got it from the 1st engram that I got from my silver purchase.

10 RepliesDon't feel guilty. I certainly don't. It's clear that they made enough off of everpurse To go on a 3 week vacation. I don't get a 3 week vacation. Who does get a 3 week vacation at the holidays? 3 weeks in summer makes more sense doesn't it? Something smells fishy

4 Replies$400 +. No regrets. I like this game.

2 RepliesWhy would I spend money on a cosmetic item knowing that it will be overshadowed by the upcoming DLC/Event/etc. items? [spoiler]Warning: This is my O P I N I O N[/spoiler]

0... I get all my stuff for free by simply playing.

I spent 25$ in D1. I won a 25$ amazon gift card in a twitch stream, got the full dawning armor so I was happy. So I guess technically zero since the money wasnt my own

I've never spent a dime on Silver, for two reasons. One, I don't value cosmetic items enough to warrant spending real world money for them. Two, loot boxes ensure that you will rarely, if ever, actually get the item you were wanting to buy. I can't justify spending real world money on a random mystery item. This goes for every game I play that offers loot box MTX. I just don't buy them. Videos like this make for flashy headlines when you can say that collecting every item in a season could cost over $10K. I've never understood that. Is anyone actually expecting, or even wanting, to collect every single item? Do you really need every sparrow, ghost shell, ship and ornament in the game? Where would you put them all? When would you use them? I take the items I get from my free engrams, use them as they come in and dismantle them when I start to run out of room. I'll agree that the end-game in D2 is thin. Painfully so. We need more meaningful activities to engage in, more meaningful loot to chase after (and by loot I mean guns and armor with useful perks, not cosmetic crap that exists just to look pretty) and more reasons to come back each week. I just don't understand all the wailing and gnashing of teeth that goes on over useless items that you could never collect all of anyway.

Not a penny in D2, But $30 in D1. Bought the SRL book the first time and $20 for a few emotes I wanted.
-
20 - both times to get a laugh out of crybaby tears. Well worth it.
-
$50; just like in D1. And just like D1; it's sitting in the bank. I did it to support the Live Team's efforts.
-
None, and that's how it will stay.
-
I spent $10 right when the game came out. I haven't spent any since. I even got like $30 in PS gift cards for Christmas but am not buying silver with it. Don't need more ghosts ships and sparrows...
-
D2 not one cent. D1 $100
-
Back in Destiny 1 i bought some, mainly because I really wanted dust to buy some of the gear sets. In all honestly it was a waste, especially since it's all left back in the first game and i couldn't bring it with me.
-
D2? $0. D1? $20.
-
$5, but this was a long time ago in Destiny 1 and I wanted the old emotes. This was the "season 2" or whatever. I regret it.

1 Reply$40 or more. i did it for the gambling aspect. I don't even play this game much anymore...

4 RepliesI have never bought any silver in either D1 or D2 and never will. I still haven't spent that free silver we were all given in D1. [quote]I kind of feel guilty about other players funding the free events like The Dawning whilst I contribute nothing [/quote] Bar collecting stuff from planets, which is ultimately boring, there wasn't a whole lot to The Dawning. I like snowballs as much as the next person, but I ain't paying for them. ;-)

1 ReplyWhy would you feel guilty? You paid for the game, right? Plus mtx are not mandatory
