No this and the last 4 years content launches have been catastrophic but atleast once in Y1 we atleast got compensated with a paltry sum of silver for missed game time. Since then every new content launch we lost atleast a day or two of launch time which is the key time to play with friends and often time ppl took off just for this, our time is money and when we pay for something that presented as being able to run fine and that then not being delivered then thats a breach of trust. Even worse is then they have the gall to tell us to pay 25$ for fond memories in form of the gjallahorn so we can celebrate something that should be free as a sign of celebration for them and the community which amounts to borderline and no just is extortion. Even worse is that we were not informed or asked about battleeye sufficiently in advance, hell a basic google check on their part would have showed them the problems with battleeye and win 7. Battleeye is notorious for false positives and not really helping with anti cheat so if they wanted token anti cheat they should have just gone with EAC which atleast works mostly quietly in the background and can be implemented with off modes. This is made worse since most of the community is PVE and doesn't care about PVP which has had an uncomfortable focus for far too long to the clear detriment of PVE content that can be seen over years 1-4 of D2 to the point that you can clearly see that Y4s seasonal arenas were rehashes of Y3s. This cannot go on, the fake free 2 play and basically charging trough the roof for what amounts to usually up to 5 hours of content at best for 3 months and now they went the way of notorious game devs like gajin games or wargaming by extorting ppl 25$ for their nostalgia and fond memorie. No even worse as the before mentioned devs only overcharge for junk like an ingame vehicle. They don't bring back an event or removed one an charge you for it but just make it earnable in-game for free and they have a legitiamte justification of being actual full free 2 play games which is not true for destiny 2.

  • Nobody's "extorting" nobody, and that's the real problem: You people keep giving them your money. You keep complaining, but then you keep giving them more and more money, [i]every single -blam!- time.[/i] Grow a spine and stop giving them your money whenever they hold out their slimy grubby little paws, just for once. It takes two to tango, and no-one from Bungie's holding a knife to your throat (they know they don't have to).

    You could count paywalling Trials as extorting you to buy the newest expansion for continued access of an existing activity. Personally, I would rather if they just set an account based spending requirement, so that Trials is permanently unlocked after you have X dollar amount of purchases on the account. Then you still have the invested worth on the account to deter bad behavior, but not also constantly demanding payment for existing content.

  • Well said, Guardian, well said. Maybe this will finally be the flashpoint that brings more positive change.
