So, I was just thinking about Tress coming to hang out and sell us premium emotes for money. And how the Destiny community is for the most part accepting of it, provided that it is just cosmetic.
How strange though...
Months ago, Evolve came out and the gaming community shunned/attacked it because it had a ton of cosmetic content that were micro-transactions. The argument was, 'why not include it with the game if we're paying $60 bucks?'
But here we are, same story, different game, and almost no one seems to care cause it isn't pay-to-win and we get a free taste.
People are becoming dependent on Destiny and this addiction is allowing standards and practices that wouldn't fly in other games to run rampant.
Just food for thought!

Reasoning for evolve -A: it wasnt all just cosmetics. Some where forced dlc characters at stupid prices. Pay to win with a certain team. -B: they claimed all maps added were to be free dlc, added 1 map, then abandoned it. -C: they were so focused on these additional bullshitty things that they totally scrapped scaling. Playing as monster became nigh impossible with introductions of new, overpowered characters, and all fun ceased when you were forced to be Craken or Behemoth for the 80,000th time
