Many of you have your heart in the right place and believe these multi million dollar companies need to add new revenue streams to survive modern game development, but the numbers just don't fit that narrative.
Let's look at some numbers shall we?
Destiny 2's publisher's (Activision) total assets are worth $17.452 billion.

Hell Bobby Kotick (Activision's CEO) is worth $2,000,000,000 by himself. How many engrams you think he's bought?

This company doesn't need Eververse to feed themselves. It's purely greed.

Editado por OverLord-Effendi: 12/24/2017 3:47:29 AMYou clearly don’t know how public companies work . Just because they are “worth” that much it doesn’t mean they have that much money. Most public companies worth is calculated from debt and speculation from investors, assets are also tangible and intangible values owned by different parts of the company ,hence why they’re need to get more money from things like etc Eververse or else their debt /capital ratio goes way off.
