300 bright dust is a little much for shaders.

I understand making it more spendy since they’re now permanent unlocks instead of stackable items that deplete as you use them, but 300 is a little too much. I think 100 bright dust would be a little more reasonable.

  • 100 is also too much. Should stay 40. The shaders are going to be a one time purchase, just like they are now. There is nothing mentioned about the way transmogs work that justify any price hike.

  • Charging to apply the shaders is hypocritical to the entire intent of what they’re pushing. It’s bullshit sleight of hand monkeys paw marketing

  • So here is the thing on why their argument makes NO sense whatsoever; You use 40 Bright dust to unlock the shader. Great, you now ALREADY have it permanently! All you have to do is spend some legendary shards and a bit of glimmer to get more of it from collections. In other words, you ALREADY HAVE IT PERMANENTLY! Now they are upping the cost of shaders from eververse to 300 Bright dust because.... Why? Their argument holds NO ground. The only argument here is: everyone gets too much bright dust, gotta increase SOMETHING to get rid of their stacks of bright dust. A resource that is somewhat scarce to get, besides the seasonal challenges and season pass stuff, just got hit with another limiting factor. Spending power got less with the currency. All I can say is that they are talking out of their ass.

BRUH like bungie is just wrong in this if you give them this they are going to take more in the future from us you are lyteraly making it easier for them to -blam!- us over later by giving them something now you are giving them example on how far you are wiling to be pushed and then later you will get used to it and then they -blam!-ing push you down again and you will give them a counter offer AGAIN if we give up now its a one way downhill

            thing is, they were already a one time purchase from eververse, after you bought them it just cost a shard and some glimmer to pull them from collections, I’m defend the game pretty hard but this is a decision that really makes no sense other than to screw players over

              • It's time to bail. Y'all did this. I never wanted microtransactions. I wanted a videogame, not a cashshop. I'll pay for a game, but not microtransactions. You want this system? Then that's what they'll give you. Game has changed. They've made it into a mobile free to try version with microtransactions not associated with the game. I'm just here to play a game. This is not it. If you like it, stay and let them milk you. If you don't, it's time to bail. This game won't change, it's a Milking Cow. I also want transmog and shaders, but not like this. Let's bail. It's time to go.

                • It's not so bad. I had 20k bright dust and blew a bunch on dumb stuff but there's still an abundance to be gained. It's all cosmetic any way 🤷‍♀️

                    • I don’t really mind. 40 BD for a shader is a pretty bad model personally. I think people are just struggling realizing how they’re going to have actually have to be smart about what shaders they pick to buy.

                    • 300 isn't a lot considering they don't really ever add many shaders anyways. You will make WAY more bright dust than shaders added. You won't even worry about it. It will only be a lot to people who don't play a lot, which does make sense.

                          I think, from the way they make Eververse exotics cost more bright dust than normal people can make in a week (before everything resets), that the point is to make it as difficult as possible without completely turning everyone off. Along with the greed (holiday event-related armor only being buyable with $ilver??), stalling between content releases is the standard game company M. O.

                          • If it was 300 for a pack of shaders you haven't gotten yet then I can understand. Now if it's only for one then yeah it's bad

                          • The fact that they are only focusing on how to put us on that hamster wheel to keep grinding, instead of you know having fun on a game. The sad part is, regardless of what they do theres still enough ppl who dont give feedback or visit the forums or just play and dont question anything, is why they keep doing it. Just like GG, instead of making a cool unique activity , we are back with more bountys, and doing the same crap we been doing for the past year, I know longer, and they still repeating the same B.S. I think if we for once can stand together as a community and not use our wallets, maybe they can listen just alittle bit. P.s. transmog is horrible, the way the have it. Why is it so hard to make something that's simple, into something that we are getting.

This is just as bad,no, worse, than domestic abuse. I keep slithering my way back to this game, and for what? Only to have that stupid bird claw out my eyes and tell me how I took out the traveller and woke up the last city?? My shaders, my vote, my transmog. But most importantly - [i]our[/i] silver This is a heinous offense that must be elevated to the [b]united nations[/b]. Yours truly, Spidah Handz406 [i]Raid Sherpa & Trials Warlord[/i]
