Those who buy sterling packages are setting a precedent for the future!
To those buying 20 to 40 dollars of sterling shit. You are actually killing this game and the franchise.
$20 used to get a raid, a bunch of guns, new exotics and a few story missions.
Bungie now sees how much you pay for trivial crap like a full set of armor and says to themselves. If they are willing to pay that much for a chance at reskinned armor set, we can get at least $60 for a ttk sized expansion and $30 to $35 for a dark below sized dlc.
Even if 3/4 of the remaining population doesn't buy these boxes, it will happen.
Buying armor is here to stay, now it's just a point of what they will sell next.

21 RespuestasIt's purely cosmetic and buying stuff from eververse is funding the free updates like this April update and more in the future so we are not killing it we are improving it

3 RespuestasI think I may spend another $25 tonight just because of this post. Thank you for reminding me that other people don't dictate what I use my money on because I am a grown man with a full time job who can spend my money on whatever I want. 👋 \ 😳 || \_ _/¯ ¯\_

Bethesda and blizzard developers and the quality of there products are worth it. With player counts down eventually Bungie-vision will follow. As a gamer you have a "choice" and smart parents with lil gamers eventually stop spending due to the value of a dollar. Again it's a choice.

2 RespuestasEditado por JayJay: 4/16/2016 3:07:37 PMWho the hell cares man. Right now (and they stated that it will be this for as long as eververse exists) there is absolutely no advantage when people get this, it is purely cosmetic. This is just bungie trying to get more money. If they really wanted to screw us over they would limit how many times we can do a certain activity but make people purchase "tokens" to do it again. I see no issue with this other than people complaining "no fair! I don't LOOK as cool as that guy, they should stop because I want to look like that but I don't have my mommys credit card"

This has already been established in the gaming community. Steam has been at it for years now. It's just how it's going to be.
-
If anyone posts "pay to win"... You're an idiot. The armour you get is 3 light and you still have to do some form of grinding before you can get it up to a decent level for end game content.
-
Literally just went and bought a package after reading this. Not to be an ass, but who cares. At the end of the day, it's a video game. And whether or not they add actual advantages into eververse, it will always be optional. As for expansion prices, Destiny is one of those games you spend a shit ton of time in...I've got my money's worth and then some. Calm down, y'all.

It's a non factor. If they want to spend money on a game they own that's their business

they expect you to grow up in the future an get a job

[quote] $20 used to get a raid, a bunch of guns, new exotics and a few story missions. .[/quote] The last time that happened, everybody bitched that it was a ripoff. Probably including you. At least something of this magnitude may be able to help fund the kind of content we want on a better timetable than in the past. I don't care if an expansion costs ten more dollars than I paid for 3 maps (all reskins) on Halo 3 8 years ago. Video games cost the same as they did 20 years ago. Yet they require insane budgets to make. The gaming industry is the only industry where the consumers are greedier than the producers. That's why shady shit like this has to happen for growth.

Haha. BUNGIE killed the franchise. Not optional emotes you can buy to dance around with your idiot goonish mouthbreathing friends.

2 RespuestasOnly people who'd waste their money on that stuff are fgts who live at home.

I agree, most of the MMO's that I have left were over things like this. No not because I am some white knight either- but because the gear you HAD to earn was way less desirable than the stuff you can purchase. I like Emotes, I liked the SRL stuff, but I really am against random-loot boxes for real cash and against purchasing gear sets for real cash.
-
Yup...that's right. [spoiler]A precedent of supporting a game we love that has entertained us for over 18 months and spending disposable income to have sweet new gear early so those periodic fun events keep happening. You're welcome [/spoiler]

5 RespuestasEditado por joey big guns: 4/15/2016 9:55:39 PM😡Buying game breaking cosmetic gear is "killing" this game. 😂😂😂😂 what a tard! Haven't spent a dime on ANY silver and I don't care if people do. Stop crying you broke chump. Get out of the basement and get a job.

3 RespuestasYep gonna drop another 20 bucks tonight

6 RespuestasDo you not work? Is posting here your job? I swear i got up at 5 today for work, quick checked the forums during my morning dump and i saw two different posts of yours about the same thing, how this cosmetic shit is bad. Around 9 while in between appointments i check again and there's a new post about the same thing, but this time condemning those who partook in the buying of cosmetic gear. Now I'm back home and i see two more one right after another. So i just had to post this time to ask, is this your job? Are you making it now your personal goal to try and sway everyone to your opinion? You're really dedicated to this cause.

You must have zero brain.

1 RespuestaI've spent $60 on them so far (: get salty on me😘

2 RespuestasOk but we just paid for this update biitch!

7 RespuestasIf people keep buying it funds the next free update soooo....
-
3 Respuestasit is absolutely stupid to spend money on shortcuts, stuff that is earned for free in game. it is stupid to defend the idea of spending money on free items it is stupid to even think about defending the idea of spending money on free items it's not a matter of how much one makes, but you buyers are enabling bungie to troll the rest of their customers save the "I'm funding free updates for everyone else" bs because you know nothing about money or how much they've profited off the base game alone. Yet you act like they're a desperate kickstarter team. gtfo
-
1 RespuestaBecause of those people is why you have this "free update"... Plebs..
-
I'll keep spending lol
