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.

Not sure what Destiny 2's developer (Bungie) is worth, but just their website is estimated to be worth 91,000,000.

The lowest paid Bungie software designer makes $80,000.

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.

You people have no concept of business. Assets don’t pay bills lol. Revenue does. I bet that Activison probably has 3 times it’s assets leveraged into debt lol. You people are cry babies that apparently want Bungie to go bankrupt. Would not shock me if after this next DLC the Destiny franchise is abandoned for other projects. Then you all can go cry on EA forums.
