new players will go into the crucible and see there is no matchmaking, that the weapon systems are unbalanced, and that op weapons come from the newest expansions and they will determine that destiny is a pay to win game.
Ask me how i know ? that was me last year when destoni was free on psn, xbone and pc.

The removal of SBMM a was why I didn’t pre-order Forsaken. Enhancement cores are why I didn’t buy it. The Shadow-keeper Eververse changes are why I will consider the next expansion. But a lack of change to existing Enhancement cores would be one of the reason I would not buy Shadow-keeper.

Enhancement cores... because you don’t want to do side grinding?

“Pay2win” ok. Game basically free. Expansions are expansions are not holding anyone back from the grind. Year 1 content has enough content for a crucible player, on top of that all pinnacle weapons are available to everyone. Plenty of exotics. Chill my man.

That’s true, but those new expansions may bar people not from the grind but from getting certain weapons. Then if said weapons dominate in crucible, it may very well seem like pay to win because you basically have to pay to get those weapons.

Pay to win means paying for the exact item to avoid a grind and gain an advantage over someone. It’s kinda like people paying for recovs the day a pinnacle comes out. Paying for an expansion so you can grind the new content and a few weapons are the best isn’t pay to win, it’s just natural for a game. New light players will already have some great stuff for crucible but if they want the shiny new stuff they’re going to have to pay like everyone else. Also pinnacle weapons don’t require an expansion I believe so if a player gets recluse, alone as a god is one of the best snipers rn and wardcliff, a y1 exotic, is one of the best heavy weapons rn. That’s a solid loadout. Sure it requires a grind but you’re getting it for free so you should expect a grind. I think pvp wise, the new light players will have enough to succeed. I hope that bungie makes a pvp playlist where new light players can fight each other (make it 4v4 or 3v3 so less time for matchmaking) and have it be a training playlist so they can be prepared to fight in qp and comp.

If they enjoy the game they will most likely buy the content
