The last time I was on the forums, fanboys were saying that microtransactions in Destiny would ALWAYS be cosmetic only and that anyone who could even consider any other possibility was a crazy person who should seek psychiatric help. The fanboys often repeated this assumption accompanied with profanity and personal insults and then went back to their usually scheduled activity of bashing anyone posting feedback on the feedback forums as a "hater" who was "ruining other people's enjoyment with negativity". Now kotaku says that Eververse is selling level boosters, telemetries, and other perks that are NOT purely cosmetic. http://kotaku.com/destiny-is-now-selling-level-boosters-and-they-sure-co-1748105644 ** Clarification: Apparently the level boosters were sold through the console stores, not Eververse. This is entirely irrelevant to my point. It's still a grossly-overpriced microtransaction that is [b]NOT[/b] purely cosmetic. ** Is kotaku wrong, or did I miss the droves of shame-faced fanboys admitting that they were wrong and apologizing for the way they treated those players who saw the writing on the wall? Edited to add: Whether you see a level booster as "pay to win" isn't really the issue. Even telemetries are [b]NOT[/b] purely cosmetic. But a level 25 booster, especially if it comes with a class skill booster and telemetries, gives that player a distinct advantage over other starting players. Not everyone in the game is already max Light with a vault full of fully-upgraded, top tier weapons. Crucible might normalize weapon damage, but it doesn't adjust for disparities in unlocked weapon perks or class abilities, and the guy with the booster can do higher level content sooner giving him access to better gear, faster. If people overlook Bungle's selling level boosts as microtransactions in Destiny, they only have themselves to blame when later games in the series get ever closer to true Pay to Win. And, Yes, I'm a little late with this. I've been away about five months. Thank you to Smoothrivers for the link.
