Pay-to-win has come to "Destiny". As part of the Festival of the Lost, players can use silver to purchase Treasures of the Lost. This random package could include items that speed up weapons upgrades and glimmer farming. So, remember when Bungie said silver would only be used for cosmetic items? Well, they aren't.
Micro-transactions are a slippery slope. The community needs to keep Bungie from going down that slope. Make your voices hear. Raise a ruckus. Let the Bungie faithful assail your revulsion of micro-transactions and pay-to-win. Let them see your resolve. Until Bungie relents and goes back to making "Destiny" the game it should be, we hold the line.

These aren't cosmetic items only. They include consumables.
Edit: Keep responding. "STFO, "Never go full . . .", "You're an idot". It's all there already. Every reply bumps this post and keeps the pressure on Bungie to avoid going pay-to-win. And yes, I know some Guardians would love it if "Destiny" went pay-to-win and they could just buy a Gjallarhorn 3.0, but that's not the game I bought.

The glimmer consumables you get all the time for killing enemies... This is not pay to win... I have do many black wax idols and ether seeds already The weapon upgrade consumables you can buy for dirt cheap with glimmer at the gun smith... This is not pay to win... They cost like 200 glimmer and they don't really speed it up much at all, using motes is a lot faster How do you see getting a little extra glimmer from enemy kills (which we get these consumables all the time already) and able to upgrade your perk tree a little faster (which we can get so easily already) PAY TO WIN?! It's not giving us max light consumables, exotic/legendary engrams, max sub class consumables, etc. This is petty...
