Who the heck cares about aztecross. He is a streamer and Bungie has paid to much attention to them rather then the average player. Streamers ruin games as Devs seem to believe they need to make the game for the streamers rather than the average player.

I hate "but it's cosmetics" point so -blam!- much. 95% of weapons we got since lightfall release are just reskins. Meanwhile money we paid for expansions and season passes and dungeon passes and whatever else you have to buy to play a game like a human, is spent on marathon and to pay designers who make silver-exclusive sparrows/ships/outfits/emotes. If you think that's ok, you are delusional and don't bother typing a response because i avoid arguing with mentally ill people

I’m sure all the spineless personalities brought all this up to Bungie at one of the many Destiny summits they’ve attended. Really took them to task I bet. I think they probably just read the writing on the wall put up a quick video to make the sheep happy. That’s easier than actually standing up to crap in the first place but that might jeopardize their summit invite. We can’t can’t have that now can we.

...and yet neither he nor Datto used their subscriber prowess/ community reach to try to do anything about it. I'll get a bunch of crap for saying it I'm sure, but if I was that upset and had that many subs (to make a 30+ minute video) I'd be front-running a "revolution". It worked in vanilla D2, it could work now too. Like all businesses, Bungie speaks in $. Whatever though, everybody will turn a blind eye and forget about this whole thing in a week.

If any of these streamers really cared they'd use their platform to organize an actual boycott. They're the only ones who can.

He’s gana use the money he gets from the video to buy stuff in the game lol all these streamers promote the game you think he cares?

to quote the absolute arrogance of one of the developers, said on twitter... "what difference would that have made, when you have I assume, already bought the season pass?" This statement here, should be a -blam!- wake up call for how the developers see the customers. such -blam!- hubris, no wonder they do not -blam!- care anymore. they can do the bare minimum and still farm us of our cash. think about that for a moment.

I agree with him, but he's about 3 years too late. Hopefully this gains traction though as it's a streamer and Bungie only listens to streamers.

Can't say I disagree. As he says in his video, It's not even about them charging what they do for the things they charge for (currently). It's about how they're doing it, how predatory it is, and how new players don't have an easy to use path or guide to know what they need in order to do what they want to do. My comment is mostly just a Bump, but I wanted to express shared feelings.

Sorry, the Youtuber is wrong and is literally 6+ years too late, and I didn't even need to click on the link to know this actual fact. This is going to be long but here is the TL, DR, Destiny literally turned into Dresstiny the day it was released. This business deliberately stripped Destiny 2 base game to be the most barebone game I have ever seen in gaming when it comes to a looter shooter. They designed the entire base game to be focused around the shop removing everything players used to be able to acquire by simply running the activities in Destiny 1 that gave the incentive to want to run most of the activities. Their greed hit the roof, screwing the entire player base over that they lost 80% of their player base and a lot more with CoO because of their greed. They even stripped the vendors in Dresstiny to barebone to shove it all in the player's face by putting it in the shop. Public events were literally more rewarding with the "2 tokens and the blues" than any strike in the game. That's how badly they deliberately screwed things up, going from D1 Y3 to this mess that 6+ years later the loot system in this game is still broken. Since the base game fewer and fewer items were placed in the activities and more were shoved in the shop. This business was even nice enough to place the shop in the directory instead of placing something actually useful like the Postmaster that it took them almost a decade to do something about blues. Oh, don't worry, it gets worse... This was a real low blow for the player that knows what D1 reads offered. On top of all that, they used Dawning/shop as end-game content screwing over the player running prestige mode that just released, giving them garbage loot. But hey, we have a mass amount of loot in the shop for you. Meanwhile, while all that was going on, the fans were defending this garbage the entire time. "it's not going to get worse, just wait and see". The majority of you fans blamed Activision for every little thing and some of you are even trying to blame Sony now for this business's greedy actions. But, since some YouTuber that takes feedback from the forums says it's bad, now it's bad after all these years when it was bad from the day this game was released? Like WTH is wrong with you people. It's no wonder there are so many greedy businesses these days, you people are way too easy. No one should be blaming this business because you "Bungie" fans are the actual problem giving them the okay all these years. You made your bed, so sleep in the damn thing 😂
