You're paying $60 for The Taken King and Digital Content.

[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOUOzL04Byg]And Angry Joe agrees![/url] But that's apparently alright, because the Weekly Update used nice words and made you feel good. How is anyone still defending this DLC? EDIT: Because some people have difficulty understanding the problem, let me put it like this... [i]Do you think that those 9 cosmetic items are equal content to House of Wolves or Dark Below? If not, why are they the same cost?[/i] I've asked multiple Destiny defenders this question, and they've either flaked out of the conversation, or ignored the question. EDIT 2: Before you come onto this thread and spout off a dozen times about how "You don't need to buy it!", consider this... [i]When people buy over-priced DLC, it tells the gaming industry that it's OK to over-charge for scarce content, because people will buy it anyway. And because those increased prices will eventually reach the people who "don't buy it", it's our responsibility to call out bad practices when we see them.[/i] EDIT 3: For the people screaming that I'm obviously poor, user DragoonKai sums it up perfectly... [i]People don't get the reason why were upset: it's not like we can't spare $40 for TTK or $20 for the items. Hell, even a kid with a limited allowance can afford that. It's about the principle; about the fact that Bungie -blam!-ed up and instead of apologizing and making things right, they tried to sell us their -blam!- up by giving us pretty words in the shape of a half assed apology.[/i] EDIT 4: What a toxic community; I'm legitimately disappointed in you people. For every person that provides an ounce of discussion value, 5 more come running out, howling and screaming that: 1.) "You're just poor" 2.) "Just don't buy it!" or (my personal favorite) 3.) Resort to personal insults to make up for a lack of coherent thought. I'd like to say people like that deserve to be shafted by this decision, and be punished for their lack of understanding, but that lack of understanding directly effects everyone who refuses to support and defend being over-charged for no content. EDIT 5: It appears that the people defending over-priced DLC have shifted the conversation to the concept that, "since *Insert game here* does it, it's okay for Destiny to do it too!" In response to this, I ask that you remember the adage that your parents told you; "If all your friends were jumping from a bridge, would you jump too?" Just because other people/groups/companies are doing something, it doesn't make it a good thing, nor does it justify it. EDIT 6: It saddens me that this new Bungie community is so quick to zealously defend a bad deal, simply because it is "more Destiny". When a company starts making comments about how you are used to "paying a premium" for basic content and "throwing your money at the screen" for trivial items, you need to call them out before that becomes a precedent. But instead of being good consumers, many people here have instead chosen to blindly follow along, despite the consequences it [i]will[/i] have. EDIT 7: "You just want free stuff!" isn't an answer or rebuttal to this thread. I don't think the word "free" has appeared on it until this edit, so at what point did I ask for free content? All I'm asking for is a fair and reasonable pricing model for a small amount of content.

  • What is wrong with suggesting not to purchase it? Some people believe it's worth their money. Just as it is your decision to not purchase it it is everyone else's decision as well.

    • No it isn't worth $20. That is why I am not going to buy it. But I'm not going to demand they lower the price and I'm not going to bitch at people for spending their money how they choose to.

      • I'd like to address your comment from another user. Where did bungie fúck up? What do they have to apologize for? Because you feel slighted? Because in your OPINION you were wronged somehow? Bungie doesn't owe you jack shit. And the fact that you think they do is completely pathetic. I bet mommy and daddy bought you toys whenever you wanted huh? And gave you candy when you threw a tantrum. Soft ass youngsters these days.

        • I have pre ordered ttk and will probably pay the extra for the emotes etc. Is the pricing messed up compared to previous dlc? Absolutely, I personally think the dlcs were pretty cheap. I'm currently around 900 hours for this game which the dlcs have helped keep me interested. I could have spent that money on a couple movies or cds and wouldn't have have got half the enjoyment or a tenth of the hours I have out of it. Also I'm just glad I've actually fou d a game I like. I bought fifa 15 for around £50 ( you do the math) and played for maybe 3 hours, I got masterchief with my xbox, again played for less than 10 hours, bought gta v ( had already played on 360) was impressed with the improved graphics but again only played a few hours. This game has kept me entertained, lead me to interacting with people worldwide and got me into things like podcasts and forums. To me the money I've spent so far on this game is low compared to what it's given me

          • The user base is too fragmented for any cohesive message to be sent. There are smart users, and there are dumb ones. The dumb ones ruin everything because they don't see the very simple concepts here, and then fly off the topic because...?

          • So The Dark Below and House of Wolves were dlc, typically prices for dlc is $15-25. The Taken King is an expansion. Typical expansions are priced $30-45 or more. This is a normal business model. Just look at some of the most popular PC games. World of Warcraft for instance. Base game was 60, 15 monthly fee, and the first 2 expansions were $60 for the burning crusade and $60 for the ice king. (Not sure on prices for cataclysm or mists as I had quit) Simply put console gamers are now getting introduced to the real gaming world of PC gaming, as that is all your consoles really are. Even Xbox One gamers will be able to play their games on Windows 10 once it drops.

                      • what you dont seem to understand is that they are not overcharging anything. They are a company that has a product, they put a price tag on this product. The consumer then choses to either buy it or not buy it. Your logic is flawed, ill give you an example. example: I used to work at a sunglass place called sunglass hut, they sell a pair of Prada sunglasses at 350$, the cost to make these is about 3.50$, include transport fees, manufacturing costs and labor, it comes out to about 15$ per pair. People who chose to buy Prada sunglasses buy them because they enjoy them, and want to wear Prada branded accessories... Same thing can be said about most products sold to us. The matter of a fact is, as a consumer, you chose what you buy and what you dont buy, If you chose to buy, dont complain that its expensive....you CHOSE to buy it. If the owner of a product deems that their product is worth 40 bucks, then they have all the rights do price tag it at 40$. As a consumer, for me personally, I wouldve paid 40$ just for the 3 extra subclasses, as it will give me countless hours of gaming pleasure. That is all Thank you for reading and have a nice day.

                          I agree with you; desticles don't care though. This game had so much potential, but fanboys support whatever bullshit bungie sells us. Destiny will never be the game I and many others envisioned it to be. My advice: move on to a better game and pray that bungie's (and other games) tactics aren't adopted by other game companies.
