Someone please tell me I read the weekly update incorrectly. Please tell me that Activision/ Bungie are not charging an additional $20 just for 3 emotes, 3 shaders, and 3 class items.
That's insane.
Did I read it wrong?
Edit: please feel free to disagree with me. Personally $20 is too much for cosmetic items in my opinion. Others will not share that opinion. That's okay. I was thinking it would equate to $5. But I guess I am just cheap.
Edit 2: there are some really angry people on this forum. Well, we can disagree. I stand by my opinion and the value of money compared to the lack of content/value for $20. I'm not going to bother reading any more. Have a good night and please don't spend too much time arguing.
Remember it's just a game...

2 RisposteThe worst part is the precedent they are setting... I am not concerned so much about this. Just about what will follow it...

1 RispondiIts 20 dollars. You dont have to buy it. You can just get the emblem shader, and sparrow for being a one year player.
-
It's a rip off and should only be $10 or less
-
1 RispondiIf you break it down, its about $2 for each item. Other games charge way more for stuff like this. Plus the "slow clap" emote will have way more replay value than the dark below..

Modificato da X1014: 6/25/2015 6:02:54 AM*Complains about spending $40 to get the in game exclusives* Bungie cuts price in half and removes the 2 expansions, creating a bundle for day one players *Complains that the price it too high* Holy crap grow up. If it's just a game then why did you have to make such a big deal about it. Why can't people be grateful about the fixes that Bungie made to this issue?

Modificato da Dyognes: 6/25/2015 6:02:26 AMHey all the complaint saying we want the items we want the items. Well supply and demand they obviously think you want these items so put a price on it. Also it seems they never planned to sell them separately so now this is extra money for them.
-
Would you spend that 60 if you got the digital exclusive content and Cayde-6 Cache? Call it The Taken King VIP Package.
-
Then don't buy it. Capitalism, baby!

17 RisposteModificato da Fujyno: 6/25/2015 4:18:39 AMLook at it like this. You can save 20$. Instead of buying digital collector's edition for 80$, get TTK for 40$ and collectors pack for 20$. Total of 60$. Profit
-
-
I am happy this got addressed but still it is gonna cost $60 the full price of destiny for the "full taken king experience". I recommend that everyone that is gonna buy taken king to wait and see if the new dances, shaders, and class items are worth the extra $20.
-
Suggested retail price. It might change. I hope it does. They probably just wanted to see how much people would be willing to pay for it
-
1 RispondiI'm confused. People were mad they were charging 80 so they made it available for everyone for 20 and people are still mad? Smh. If it's to much don't but it. Who cares about that shit anyway
-
It's about 2$ per piece fair price IMO
-
Modificato da Darches: 6/25/2015 5:04:32 AMIt's the same price the digital CE pays for. Now you can save $20, although your TTK price is still inflated, leading to an unsavory $60. I know I won't be getting the emotes. But that's OK, it's really THEIR loss. A $10 discount for older players would generate much profit IMO. But they're too foolish to do that. Superblack time!

3 RisposteWell guess ducking what, if you wanted to buy them before you'd have had to pay $40 (the other $40 in the bundle being TTK itself) and now you only need to pay $20. Please just stop bitching now. And instead of comparing it to other destiny content, compare it to other games. That $20 in 9 cosmetic items is amazing compared to most other games that will charge the same price for 1 item. If you don't want the cosmetics then don't ducking buy them and stop complaining about it. Just spend your $40 on the expansion.
-
20$ for a digital Collectors Edition Upgrade* they are collectors items, for collectors editions. you arnt paying for cosmetics, you are paying for an upgrade. stop complaining about things you dont understand.
-
1 Rispondi$60 buys me a whole game. I was sick of the grind anyway. This is yet another reason to break my addiction. Slowly getting my friends to switch over to esotu.
-
I'm not buying until I see what everything is like. After that I still probably won't get it. I don't know man...... $20 ????
-
Why can't they just lower the price for the items, were already paying 40 freaking bucks for a dlc.
-
It says suggested price, maybe they left it like that to see if people were happy with it. Now knowing that we are not, they will probably lower the price.

3 RisposteModificato da JONYCOLE: 6/25/2015 3:00:22 AMI thought DeeJ said that Year one players could expect "something better" than the emotes, shaders etc. All he said we get is the same stuff we knew we were getting before all of the ruckus. Lol they did exactly what I thought. They threw all of the stuff we were not getting together where so we can have them to appease us....it's a sad attempt. I knew they would throw something together last minute and basically have nothing special for us. He made it seem as though there was something special for us that they had not yet informed the community about. Real smooth Bungie....real smooth. As GSP once said..."I am not impressed with your performance"

6 RisposteYou can really tell the people who earn their money from those who get it from their mummy and daddy on here...

Maybe they can start a microtransaction system next! Don't feel like grinding bounties? Pick up a dead orbit package from the postmaster for only $6USD! A shader is just a shader but a package could be [b]anything![/b] it could even be a shader! Low on glimmer? Just head over to the speaker he will be happy to sell you some, 1500 glimmer only $4USD! Remember guys, it's all about what provides value to you, the customer.
-
Ignore this saying people are being whiners. It's not even necessarily about the money it's the worth. People seem to forget that the last 2 dlcs were both 20 dollars. So the 9 items, half of which are cosmetic cost the same amount as full blown dlc? How does that make sense?
-
2 RisposteInstead of paying 80$ for the Collectors Edition to get the content, when you already have the game and its first two expansions, your going to pay 20$ LESS for just The Taken King and the digital content for that Collectors Edition. Some people are fine with this, as it is an option. Some aren't because its just 20$ is expensive for said content and they are pretty much paying 20$ less then what they would have paid for the Collectors Edition itself. 5 or even 10 would have been the sweet spot, but it is what it is, and the option is there. wonder how much money I have to throw for the option of having an LFG or Codex at the Tower. Also did the update confirm being able to chat with other guardians at the tower (I'm joking mostly)?
