Oh, they'll start with the emotes but who says they won't expand to gameplay affecting items such as armor and gear in the sequels? They always start this way. Besides, CS GO is a 15$ game. Destiny is a 60$ one. 140$ if you count the year 1 players. And ESO flopped on PC, they switched to the current business model you see now because it wasn't doing well. And it still isn't doing that well. Forza 5 was ruined by microtransactions. They told us it wouldn't affect the gameplay but in order to get the cars you wanted through playing, you had grind for days since the top tier cars were super expensive. Who says they won't do the same with Destiny 2? Look at CoD AW. Not only the new weapons were RNG, but it was payed RNG. Look at FIFA's Ultimate Team. Back in FIFA 11 days, there were no coin sellers and microtransactions. You earned your coins through playing and the economy of the transfer market was controlled by the players. You could buy Messi or Ronaldo for 30-50k. Now that we have FIFA points and coin sellers, Ronaldo and Messi cost a million and half coins. You can't get that much coins just by playing since you need to spend coins on contracts and fitness cards. I've played FIFA 12, 13, 14 (on two systems), 15 and 16 and I've never got a top tier player because the coins weren't enough to buy them and the chances of finding them in player packs were super low. I can't comprehend why people still defend these greedy practices by Bungie. Seriously why would you defend a company that only cares about your wallet? How can people be this naive? You defended Bungie when they gave us half a game at launch, you defended them when they sold us cut content as DLCs, you defended them when they -blam!-ed international players in ass when they sold a 40$ DLC at 63$ and you still keep defending them over this shit? Microtransactions aren't acceptable in a 60$ game. Period. Stop defending this shit and maybe, just maybe one day Activision and Bungie will stop -blam!-ing us loyal fans in the ass for one day.
