To Bungie: Come on, don’t force us to buy loot boxes. If 70+% of all new loot in your looter shooter is in your store let us earn it by dedicated play. That’s only fair. Letting players purchase what they want is a great update. Removing a way to earn it instead is just greedy gross.
To the community:
Incase you missed it in the TWAB, Bungie has this to say today:
“talked about our efforts to give you more control over how you purchase Eververse items. We released the Prismatic Matrix as an experiment to partially address this, but we believe we can do even better.
For Season of the Drifter, we want to try something new. We will be removing the Prismatic Matrix. Instead, every week, there will be unique bundles available that can be directly purchased for Silver, allowing you to directly buy exactly the items you want. All unique bundles will also contain an exclusive vanity item available only through that weekly bundle.”
Yes to “do better” they are charging you money for the eververse items you want and removing the way to earn what you want though dedication to playing the game.
This is what Bungie without Activision looks like. Did you think that Activision was forcing them to push micro transactions? Hell no.
It would be nice if they just sold Luna’s Howl and Not Forgotten in the Eververse store directly. At least that would get all the parasite account recovery services out of Competitive.
TL;DR
[spoiler]Adding direct purchase bundles is fine. Don’t remove the prismatic matrix.[/spoiler]
