We already have to pay for the new expansion to do things we USED to have access to (trials, iron banner, etc.) you NEED to buy the new seasons (the rewards on the pass are honestly trash too by the way) to play up to date story missions, and now we have to buy dungeons SEPARATELY??? You are literally scamming the player base. You have developed a habit of pushing out subpar expansions that get stale pretty damn fast and then filling it up with stuff that should have been in it from the beginning with season passes, and then TAKING IT AWAY LATER WITH THE CONTENT VAULT. And yes I understand that the content vault is needed but that doesn’t mean you have to take ALL the dungeons and ALL the raids with it. We pay for stuff to do and then a year or so later you take it away and go “but here’s something new you can fork out more cash to play!” And just to add insult to injury we still have the complete garbage that is the eververse store. Which is honestly the only place you cans get good looking gear and the “free” way to get it (bright dust and engrams) is either stupidly inefficient or so damn unlikely to drop it’s not even funny and when it does it’s something from 10 seasons ago you don’t even care about anymore. If you’re going to rip us off for content then we deserve to either a) have silver be earnable in game and be part of the season pass rewards or b) GET RID OF EVERVERSE AND MAKE IT ALL EARNABLE IN GAME. (Yes I know earnable isn’t a real word stuf) Let’s have a look at what playing destiny will be like post witch queen shall we? 1. Buy expansion to get access to new stuff (but not even everything that will be available when it drops) 2. Buy the season pass several times throughout the year to access more stuff (including THE STUFF DROPPING WITH WITCH QUEEN) 3. BUY DUNGEONS SEPARATELY TO FINALLY HAVE EVERYTHING THAT WOULD COME WITH THE EXPANSION IN ANY OTHER DAMN GAME 4. NOW THERES THE 30th ANNIVERSARY THATS $30 FOR ONE DUNGEON AND ONE EXOTIC, ITS NOT EVEN A SEASONS WORTH OF CONTENT FOR 3x THE PRICE 5. AND IF YOU WANT ANY GEAR THAT DOESNT LOOK HORRIBLE YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR IT ON THE STUPID EVERVERSE STORE (if I could I would have blown Tess’ head off bad in D1) So, if you want access to everything that will be available when witch queen drops you have to pay for 4 seperate things, totalling $150 IF you get the bundle, if you can’t afford the whole thing straight away that’s fine, you can buy it separately for an additional $15 plus however much the dungeons end up costing, (which could put it up to an additional $30-$40 IF we’re lucky) Even EA isn’t this vile. And they literally invented loot boxes. The player base has HATED eververse since it first came around, but we dealt with it because we got ok expansions at decent prices and we didn’t HAVE to buy them to access most the content. Then along came seasons with Forsaken and you know, wasn’t great but the expansion was pretty good. But now this? What? Are we expected to fork out $120 for access to a single years worth of content EVERY YEAR?? Double the triple A game price for an indie games worth of content? This is ridiculous, and this IS a scam. I’m not getting a WHOLE games worth of content but I’m paying twice as much as one. You keep selling us the same excuse “oh the pandemic made it difficult” yeah it did. A year ago that was fair. A year ago we were ok with it because we knew the pandemic was a mess for everyone. But you’ve had a year to adapt. You’ve had a year to make the necessary changes to get things back on track. Honestly cannot even begin to express how insanely furious this makes me. What’s worse is that so much of the player base is so spineless they won’t stand up to it and you’ll get away with it, and then you’ll monetise more and more until we have to buy strikes and crucible separately every year as well. So here’s your chance [i]guardians[/i] you can either stand up for yourselves and or do what you do best and roll over and let them rob you blind. Your choice. To everyone questioning my pricing: [url=https://store.playstation.com/en-au/product/EP0002-PPSA02410_00-D2WQ30PREBDL0001/]oh wow look it’s accurate[/url] And to everyone else who is trying to say I used the words scanned and literally wrong. Nice you’re a grammar (insert name of German political party in WW2 because bungie doesn’t like the n word). And you might want to google the definitions for those words yourself. I’ve used the informal definition of literally and the main definition for scam. Addendum: To anyone saying “it’s not a scam because you know what you’re getting” no. We don’t. We have no idea what we’re getting. We’re being sold glorified loot boxes. We don’t know how much content is in the expansion. We don’t know if the dungeons will have brand new loot or will just recycle old world loot like they do now. We don’t know if any of the content will be good. We don’t know if they’re going to recycle story missions into strikes. We don’t know what will come with each season. We don’t know if the seasonal activity is just a reskin of an old seasonal activity in a new destination. We don’t know ANYTHING about it. We don’t even know how much dungeons will be selling for later. They want us to buy the expansion [b]SIGHT UNSEEN[/b] they haven’t even given us a real gameplay trailer. The most we got was someone crushing a hive ghost and it sure as hell wasn’t actual gameplay. They are relying on people buying the pack and then going “oh well I already bought it, might as well play” even if the content is horrible.
