If you Pre-Order Rise of Iron, you're actually...

... awesome ...helping to keep the gaming industry alive ...continuing a great community ...going to have a great time see you in Felwinter Peak guardians. Edit 4: I'm putting this at the top of the edits as it's my reply to quite a common comment here. Some people are saying preorders are bad for the gaming industry as it takes away the incentive for Developers to make a good game. They also say that the devs are getting all our money and then just kind of giving up on the project and don't care anymore because they already have our money. My response to this is, [i][b]Forget about preorders for a second. When a game is released and they make millions of dollars from people buying the game. Does that mean they no longer care, they no longer put money into the game, they ignore the fan base and say hey we have their money now, we don't need to listen to them anymore. No, they don't. They hire people to patch the game, do updates to the game, make new content for the game etc. (this isn't just about Bungie and Destiny btw, I mean ALL developers). Do you really think that the devs want to sell a bad game? You are really really stupid if you think they no longer care bacuase they have your money.[/b][/i] Edit: for those saying this community is not good, don't judge the community based on the forums. A lot of the forums are a horrendous part of the community. Go to places like [url=https://www.twitch.tv/destinycommunitycon]this[/url] to see how good the community really is. Edit 2: This whole post is in response to [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/211538714?sort=0&page=0]this[/url] so when I said 'helping to keep the gaming industry alive' I didn't mean that preordering this DLC is single handedly helping keep it alive. I was merely saying the opposite to this guy who thinks it's killing the gaming industry, I don't think it is. Edit 3: this whole post is in response to [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/211538714?sort=0&page=0]this[/url] post. I don't actually think pre-ordering is keeping the gaming industry alive. The gaming industry is already alive and it isn't going anywhere, it was just a response to that dumb comment saying pre-ordering is killing the gaming industry.

    • as an Xbox player. I rather not preorder. Its rather hard to get hyped up about these new things just so later they announce some of the stuff the are showing off is playstation exclusive.

            Haven't pre-ordered it, might not. The pre order bonuses aren't really that great to be honest. It's hit or miss for me. Love the game, but not really in a hurry. Those that are and have pre ordered- great! Those that complain about people doing what they want with their money: Russia wants you back.... commies! Lol

            • I hear where you are coming from. Although pre orders are basically extra cash to the developers, people need to be smart consumers. If you have money to toss around, pre order all you want. I don't, so I wait for reviews and other info before I buy anything related to games. Especially now a days.

              • So people on this post say that pre-ordering is bad? Really, me paying for something I know I want before it comes out with my money is bad. At the end of the day I buy games because I want to play them I don't look for reviews or how the game might look I pre-order or buy games because they seem interesting to me not anyone else. It goes the same way with any product.

                  Yeah...totally head to twitch if you want to willingly donate to some catchphrase machine ,with a silly voice and who wants to sell you a tshirt with their face on, and offer you 5% off a scuff controller using some generic passcode. That is the 100% essence of any gaming community "Oh my gooood...thanks so so much for the donation...yadayadayada...scuff controller.....yadda yada yada...like sub raffle boom wizz pow!!!" That said, i agree with the overall sentiment of your post

                  ...purchasing a weapon skin and sparrow. If there was a worthwhile incentive, I would have considered pre-ordering. I will wait until a month or two into RoI to see if things are the same in year three.
