Ereverse is not that bad, most of the items that are sold for silver have been sold for bright dust. Either way, the items are purely cosmetic and have zero effect on the game. Remember this… You want bungie to make money, they are independent now and you want to keep them able to afford to keep bringing us great content like shadow keep, forsaken etc. The ornaments for whisper of the worm paid for the whole outbreak perfected quest. Plenty of people like myself, do not mind throwing $20 or $30 at the screen every three months to acquire silver and get the cool stuff. It’s usually the cheap people who do not even buy the season that complain or the kids who do not have bank accounts or jobs yet. The only adjustment that I can see would be to add a guaranteed 50 or 100 bright dust to each bright engram.

I think they would make more money with 5 dollar emotes or less. 2.99 would be ideal for exotics. The armor ornaments should be the same. 1 buck for legendary and rare emotes. I think less people would mind the bright dust economy if this was the case and they would triple the sales or more. I know I'd buy more for 3 bucks. As of now I bought the skeleton ornament and that's it since 2014.

They really need to re-establish the cost to quantity population purchases ratio on all the items. They drop things 25% and see a huge uptick of purchases...well you see my point. They should definitely look into it. Squeezing water from a rock is what they are doing now.

I think it's stupid how Bungie is creating these events nowadays and they're getting worse each year that has gone by. 1 reskinned weapon from Warmind that once you get it, they set up a stupid fixed roll system creating this false hope, "you will get good rolls" wasting a players time and resources knowing the 1 you acquire from the event is one of the best rolls if not the best you're going to get. No, I didn't play with the stupid rolls for the weapon. When did rigging their game become a thing? Also, the Season of the undying items suck that are all handpicked items even the engrams so you don't get items that you have to buy for silver and barely any items were added to this event that you can acquire just playing the event, other than a tone of BS material for the event. Man! this is some lazy development. [spoiler]When Bungie sold glows that is when I realized how stupidly selfish they have become and here this event is showing how they don't give a flying hoot about their player base having Cozmo/Dmg come on here pretending that "they care as if Eververse was a mistake". Whoops, our bad for the umpteenth time. No, the ones that think you are being clever, we all know no one has to buy anything from Eververs so stop using the stupid weak at best argument. It doesn't work and never will, It only makes you look really foolish knowing this is about offering a path that is reasonable and [b](stop using Eververse as a filler)[/b] because that lack of effort this company is willing to put in this game this last 6 months adding new loot to the loot pool in the rest of the game.[/spoiler] Dude, not even Ikora has a full set of weapons, a big whopping 4 weapons. What's with this half-baked nonsense with this company because there is a hell of a lot of half-baked content in this game? Edit: What is really screwed up about all this? Bungie will make small changes making some improvements as they usually do after every event. The thing about it though, I can almost guarantee when Dawning comes around they will pull the same childish game.

I actually liked the vanilla eververse system, play to earn bright engrams or buy some if you wanted to, either way youd be getting that seasonal gear, Then they introduced the whole "eververse engrams will now drop the previous seasons cosmetics" which was fine i guess, I could still play to earn the cosmetic engrams or buy some if i wanted. But now they have this new season pass system, where you can really only earn a certain amount of cosmetic engrams (maybe six? Idk im not too versed). Im not rank 100 yet but the question ive been wondering is "what happens after you hit level 100?" Do you level up to earn cosmetic engrams? Is that it? Is the only way to get more locked behind spending money? See Idk how this season works as I'm only rank 29, so i don't know, but it just leaves me very unsure on wether I like the season pass system or not

You do know that bungie is independent right?2 things,1.nothing in the eververse makes you advantageous 2. How is bungie supposed to make money?what would you suggest? Ads in the game?thats the only thing I could think of. Honestly.. I find it crazy how pressed people are over eververse. I have no problem with micro transactions if it furthers the development of the game.

[quote]Post title speaks for itself. And no I'm not expecting comment from anyone at bungie besides the usual paid shills or bungie staff that try to interject with they normal defenses. Reason why I believe that: no REAL gamer would defend this trash model of microtransactions. Anyone that supports or "loves" paying for loot in a shooter looter game are either following a script or are really that stupid.

I do agree that Bright dust bounties are few and should drop more dust but the fact remains that all live service games need to make money to survive. I don't see why you are so outraged over the eververse...it's purely cosmetic, save up your Bright dust and buy a few things here n there...but don't expect to get all the seasonal eververse items for free.

calling people stupid for having the money to spend to buy the things they want sounds like broke people talk. thinking the crap Everversee sells is loot combined with the first part makes it look like the adjective should be applied to you....

Do you realize that Bungie is now self published? Do you understand that a majority of D2 content is completely free to all players? Do you understand that D2 is a live service game that requires much more funding to manage, update, and maintain than a regular game? Do you understand that Bungie has salaries, bills, benefits, equipment, and expenses that need to be paid? Do you understand that D2 needs to produce a certain amount of income to remain financially viable and should it not the game will probably be shut down entirely? Do you realize that if eververse is removed that the price for ACTUAL CONTENT (i.e. not cosmetics) will most likely be doubled forcing EVERYONE to pay more? I know you’ll probably ignore virtually all of my points and call me a Bungie apologist or payed off drone, but hey, what else can you do when you don’t have any valid points to argue? TLDR; One way or another Bungie needs to make its profit, not because they’re “greedy” but because the have production costs. Either you pay for cosmetics, pay more for seasons or expansions, or Bungie stops producing D2 entirely.

they're cosmetics. How vain do you have to be to rage over cosmetics being too expensive?

First for any of my posts. Thanks guys. Nice to see a good number of people share my concerns with this.

Aren't the Ninja's supposed to lock up these stupid Remove Eververse posts? So sick of seeing this crap. All this fake/petty drama over a optional cosmetic shop that removes useless garbage drops from the loot pool. Honestly who wants to go back to the days of destiny 1 of running a nightfall to get a ghost shell, ship or a sparrow you are never going to use instead of a gun or armor?

Agree but simply just don’t buy anything, getting triggered over summat raised a million times already is sad, if we was going to get a change in how it is then it will be in the pipeline already or implemented and if not, we’ll as many, you repeating the same shit each time and wasting your own breath.

Serious question How many of you actually think they'd ever remove eververse?

Waaaaaahhhh..... Bungie give me your stuff for free!!!

Forgot the third reason, and why many of us don't care about eververse. We aren't living paycheck to paycheck. So blowing ten to twenty bucks here or there, for completley OPTIONAL cosmetics, doesn't bother us.
