Micro Transactions Don't Belong in $60 games.

There's no justification for it. Even if I don't spend a dime myself doesn't mean it's not sick that I paid for this game and every expansion pass and still have items blocked off from me. It doesn't matter what items your selling. It doesn't matter how cheap they are. You're taking advantage of people and it's wrong. It's not a debate.

  • The thing is this. With COSMETIC micro transaction is allows them more yearly budget to make better content. Yes Destiny has a 10 year contract with a 500 million budget spanned out over 10 years. The way a budget that size works is you have that massive pool on the side. You can only use so much of it per year. When you take into account how massive these games are in a data sense now days compared to back even on 360 and ps3 it is scary. It is much more time and effort put into these and time is money. We had a shit raid with Dark Below, we had NO raid in House of Wolves. And we have Kings Fall which is actually a good raid. Luke Smith stated that if a raid isnt finished by the time a content update launches that they will not launch the raid. Thus another House of Wolves let down. Not only will they make more money off of this then the DLC packs every 3-4 months, they are also going to be releasing this content as free content updates. So those of us who actually are excited and contributing to bungie by buying a simple DANCE emote or a point and laugh emote, we are essentially paying for the DLC for those who refuse all of this. Alot of games do COSMETIC ONLY cash shops/micro transactions. And they do amazingly well. I personally hope to see new shaders a even some cool sparrow skins come out. Shit I would even be excited to see armor SKINS that could be applied over our current armor to have more unique looks. Until they put like strange coins and exotic engrams in this shop. The game is heading to a good horizon if this plan they have laid out works. No more having to pay for DLC packs? Maybe a yearly expansion to buy but thats it. And most MMOs have that and you dont see many people flipping their shit over that. REPOST for everyone to see.
