Yeah, it is, but it doesn't change the fact that their FOMO driven model is scummy and bad for the game as a whole.

  • You could literally say that about any corporation that's ever made a limited time product. Or a TV Show, a movie. Those are limited, and they're abusing the poor psyche of all who consume! Bad for society as a whole! It's the entitled mentality where everything is out to get you.

  • Here's the issue with that analogy though. Sure, other corporations use FOMO to promote products... However those products mean nothing. This is a video game, we already paid for the content and it's being taken away AFTER we paid for it, where a clothing store might introduce a limited time shirt the people who bought the shirt get to keep it. We don't. We buy the content and it's taken away from US too. Literally nobody wins with a FOMO driven business model and if you think bungie is doing this to make a better experience for the players you're naive.

  • I'd agree with you if Bungie didn't tell you this was going to happen in advance. There's no psychological manipulation, no devil magic here. Just idiots trying to find something to blame for their terrible spending habits. It's like saying "Urgh, I wouldn't have bought this MANIPULATING ICE CREAM if it WASNT SO SWEET! DAMN THE SOCIETY, DAMN THE CORPORATION! DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!" slamming your fists on the ground in anger.

  • Yes, they told us in advance and we hated it then, even before it was released. You're failing to grasp the point, we think FOMO sucks, period, it was hated then and it still is.

  • I've literally never seen these forums respond to anything positively. The forums are the vocal and very very stupid minority. If it wasn't working, they would've changed it. WAIT, YOU BOUGHT IT? LOL WHY ARE YOU SAYING YOU HATED IT WHEN YOU BOUGHT IT?
