It does make you curious about where the Eververse revenues go, and also how much funding this event got. From what I've seen we only got 1 new Fusion Rifle and a new tree in the Tower, with of course Bungie's RecycledContent™. I can't say I'm mad about missing this event tbh --------------------------------------------------- Edit: two quotes here both recent and old with implications that Bungie either is or should be using the Eververse revenues to fund events and better the game. My issue is simply that I don't see that happening. Bungie is not poor, and they are not alone they've entered in a partnership with NetEase and have already seen support from that partnership. I feel like many agree that Players deserved much more than a tree in the tower, a Fusion Rifle, and a generic event reward from a quest that wasn't engaging. Bungie has been making games since 1991, they are not new, green, wet behind the ears, or however you might phrase it. Bungie has been making games longer than some of you here have lived. In the Destiny franchise Bungie has been with it for 6 years. bungie will NEVER gain more relevant data at this point on how to please players in Destiny. When they fail it may as well be intentional because they already know what has been enough, and what hasn't. Every time these dudes under deliver I can't help but look at that content and feel they knew exactly what they did, and in the case of this event it seems Bungie shorted the playerbase an event so they could pad their pockets D1: Introducing Eververse [quote] Our plan is to use these new items to bolster the service provided by our live team for another full year, as they grow and create more robust and engaging events that we’ll announce later this year. It has been, and continues to be, our goal to deliver updates to the game. Going forward, our live team is also looking to grow beyond vital updates and improvements to focus on world events, experiences, and feature requests.[/quote] https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/13672/7_Introducing-Eververse-Trading-Company D2: Director's Cut Part I SEASON OF OPULENCE, PART II: THE EVOLVING EVERVERSE [quote] Last year, we thought long and hard about Eververse and how we wanted to change the strategy around microtransactions in Destiny.  As some folks have smartly pointed out, MTX is a big part of our business being a live game. I'm not going to say "MTX funds the studio" or "pays for projects like Shadowkeep" -- it doesn't wholly fund either of those things. But it does help fund ongoing development of Destiny 2, and allows us to fund creative efforts we otherwise couldn't afford. For example: Whisper of the Worm's ornaments were successful enough that it paid [dev cost-wise] for the Zero Hour mission/rewards to be constructed (this shit matters!). [/quote] https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/48058
