Like if you don't give a shit about micro transactions.

I've never spent a cent on micro transactions in any game, and never plan to. Buy why is it such a big deal? If you don't like it don't buy it.

  • Man, I should be used to it by now, but is always so jarring coming from Reddit back to these forums and instantly watching the average IQ drop

  • I don't give a shit about Destiny 1.5. That's what i don't give a shit about. Also, looking at all the upvotes, you know this community is a clueless mess. You don't care about MC? Be ready to buy exotics on their store... its coming and you will love it.

    • Very simple, your personal experience does not account for everyone's experience. Not to mention there are tons of issues with Microtransactions. Some the effect you even though you don't spend money on them. For instance, games can be balanced around those Microtransactions. Meaning that the rate at which you gain loot can be adversely affected to create an experience that encourages real-money transactions. If you look at Overwatch, the loot boxes are purely cosmetic but, plenty of people spend money on them. The combination of the gambling like experience and the incredibly slow rate you earn the boxes (plus duplicate items adding an unrewarding feeling) creates an environment where buying the loot boxes is encouraged.

      • I don't mind them when they affect literally nothing, but when companies themselves affect drop rates for loot (For Honor prior to patches is a perfect example and it's still not great) in an attempt to try and get you fed up enough to buy the micro transactions, that ish right there is scummy af.

      • Because people like earning things. Even cosmetic items should be earned.

          • The only way I would care is if I was ultra competitive in PvP and it gave my opponents a significant advantage. Since I don't care about D2 PvP, it's a non issue with me.

          • I like it.. and I buy it. What's the big deal? It's not like any of this shit actually makes a difference in play style or power. This is Destiny... there's plenty of loot.

          • Look at what they did to Gears 4. Went from earning items to becoming a glorified slot machine.

            • You know if people dont wanna buy it then dont buy it. If someone has the money to spend then more power to them. Buying the items with silver isnt gonna make a player OP at the start of the game. So why are we still complaining over the same thing back in Destiny 1?

            • This is unbelievable. I knew that Bungie's fanbase has happily ate shit before, but this is another level. You all are actually defending microtransactions in a $60 game. Quit teaching the industry this is okay.

              • Game are more expensive to make now. Ppl need to realize that these companies are doing this because the other option is to charge $100+ for one disc, and that is not gonna sit well with consumers
