You're paying $60 for The Taken King and Digital Content.

[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOUOzL04Byg]And Angry Joe agrees![/url] But that's apparently alright, because the Weekly Update used nice words and made you feel good. How is anyone still defending this DLC? EDIT: Because some people have difficulty understanding the problem, let me put it like this... [i]Do you think that those 9 cosmetic items are equal content to House of Wolves or Dark Below? If not, why are they the same cost?[/i] I've asked multiple Destiny defenders this question, and they've either flaked out of the conversation, or ignored the question. EDIT 2: Before you come onto this thread and spout off a dozen times about how "You don't need to buy it!", consider this... [i]When people buy over-priced DLC, it tells the gaming industry that it's OK to over-charge for scarce content, because people will buy it anyway. And because those increased prices will eventually reach the people who "don't buy it", it's our responsibility to call out bad practices when we see them.[/i] EDIT 3: For the people screaming that I'm obviously poor, user DragoonKai sums it up perfectly... [i]People don't get the reason why were upset: it's not like we can't spare $40 for TTK or $20 for the items. Hell, even a kid with a limited allowance can afford that. It's about the principle; about the fact that Bungie -blam!-ed up and instead of apologizing and making things right, they tried to sell us their -blam!- up by giving us pretty words in the shape of a half assed apology.[/i] EDIT 4: What a toxic community; I'm legitimately disappointed in you people. For every person that provides an ounce of discussion value, 5 more come running out, howling and screaming that: 1.) "You're just poor" 2.) "Just don't buy it!" or (my personal favorite) 3.) Resort to personal insults to make up for a lack of coherent thought. I'd like to say people like that deserve to be shafted by this decision, and be punished for their lack of understanding, but that lack of understanding directly effects everyone who refuses to support and defend being over-charged for no content. EDIT 5: It appears that the people defending over-priced DLC have shifted the conversation to the concept that, "since *Insert game here* does it, it's okay for Destiny to do it too!" In response to this, I ask that you remember the adage that your parents told you; "If all your friends were jumping from a bridge, would you jump too?" Just because other people/groups/companies are doing something, it doesn't make it a good thing, nor does it justify it. EDIT 6: It saddens me that this new Bungie community is so quick to zealously defend a bad deal, simply because it is "more Destiny". When a company starts making comments about how you are used to "paying a premium" for basic content and "throwing your money at the screen" for trivial items, you need to call them out before that becomes a precedent. But instead of being good consumers, many people here have instead chosen to blindly follow along, despite the consequences it [i]will[/i] have. EDIT 7: "You just want free stuff!" isn't an answer or rebuttal to this thread. I don't think the word "free" has appeared on it until this edit, so at what point did I ask for free content? All I'm asking for is a fair and reasonable pricing model for a small amount of content.
