TABLET and PHONE USERS: I Am Not Trolling You. HONESTLY!!!

Some of you (cell phone users too) have gotten the wrong impression from me. Honestly, I am not trying to be a troll to all of you. It's just that, every time there is a new way to access Destiny from a tablet/ cell phone/ whatever, it seems like we are one step closer to the day when I will be FORCED to buy a peripheral device just to play my favorite CONSOLE game. And I just don't think that's right. The ability to manipulate a character's equipment from a computer is bad enough, from my point of view; and I know some of you want the ability to do it while in a combat area. That's fine in principle, I suppose, if you're raiding against Crota; but consider the Crucible. If one player has the ability to switch weapons in the midst of combat by simply pressing a touchscreen on a tablet, barely looking away from the screen, that's a HUGE advantage over a player who has to go into the game menu to do the same thing. Yet it's an advantage that comes from outside the game. And people complain about buying things from Xur? I am going to anticipate some replies here: 1) [i]I should just buy a tablet myself[/i]. I already spent good money on a PS4, which does everything the game is meant to do. Why do the designers feel obligated to add functions for tablets and phones? 2) [i]I am a grouchy old man.[/i] I don't deny it; but I think I have good reasons. 3) [u][i]Get over it[/i][/u]. Well; no. I think someone has to make these points, and I seem to be the only one willing to swim upstream on this topic. I also think that for every 'me' that is willing to speak out and take the abuse that is then hurled my way, there are hundreds like me who just don't want to be unjustly accused of being a troll and hence keep silent. I am not a troll, and I am not making these posts frivolously. I am trying to make sure that DeeJ and Bungie know that there are members of the community like me, who don't own these wonderful little devices, don't intend to own one, and don't want the game to cater to those who DO own them if it's at our expense. Be clear- if you like your phone app, fine. Keep it, use it. Just DON'T expect me to buy a new additional technology just to play this game. And if Bungie adds something that gives you a game advantage over me, because you spent REAL money in real life, you had better expect me to post another complaint thread. A big loud one. But until then, we can all be friends.

    It's literally just a convenience. I don't understand why you'd think they'd force you to get another peripheral, it doesn't benefit them in any way (other than website traffic, if an app even counts as that). If you don't want to use it that's fine, it's not like anyone's gonna force you to later on down the line lol. And also that crucible example is great in words but in actuality it would never happen. You have to do extensive scrolling and tapping to switch items over, it doesn't happen at the press of 1 button. Anyone who tries to switch weapons over mid game is setting themselves up for 1) no kills and multiple deaths or 2) no support to their team for those couple of mins to switch, and also probably a couple of deaths. Play a game of basketball and stop every couple of mins to change your shoes while the game continues. It would end up giving your opponent a huge advantage.
