Bungie never said the silver transactions would replace paid dlc. That was kotaku. Maybe don't believe everything you read?
It made no sense.

You have no idea how micro-transactions work or why they were originally invented do you?

That has no importance to this debate, whatsoever. Your entire rant is based on factual inaccuracies. The silver was always intended to go towards other silver content and in game events. It was even in the announcement. The events everyone can play. The cosmetic items people can buy. That has no impact on the game at all. This entire witch hunt and scare mongering people put out is laughable at best. Clearly the Activision earning calls show this game isn't dying. It has grown. Further to this come Christmas they are reducing and selling a pack containing all games and dlc prior to the next dlc which will see a further influx of players. This game isn't going anywhere and the simple reason nobody has announced the next dlc is because it is the complete wrong time to do so with the other games being released.

No, I just disagree with your point. Take Witcher 3 - it offers nowhere near the amount of time put into as this game. You also over look many key facts, for example the witcher can offer all that content for a lower price because it has a much lower overhead than Destiny's.
-
But the time spent in Destiny is grinding and doing things you've done multiple times before. Artificial time created by developers to keep a community is a cop out for making a game line the Wither

Witcher 3 is of INFINITELY higher quality. Hours played does not equal quality of the content. Forced repetitiveness does not count as time played in terms of story. The witcher 3 takes 100+ hours to beat the campaign properly. Destiny takes around 8-10 hours to beat the campaign properly. Second of all Budget doesn't necessarily mean that underhanded business tactics need to be used. Plenty of AA titles and big budget games have done just fine and didn't have to abuse their customers in the process.

The Witcher was a massive lie. It was sold as having hundreds of hours of content, yet was 100% by plenty of people in the first week. How isn't that underhand business practices?

Edited by Coyote_x_Starrk: 11/4/2015 7:59:44 AMMy. -blam!-ing. Sides. lol. You have no -blam!-ing clue wtf you are talking about. It DOES have hundreds of hours you knob. Its possible to 100% it without ever doing certain things within the game. To fully explore, do all the missions, complete New Game +, get all 3 endings and enjoy all the different sides of the storyline you are well into 250+ hours lol One single playthrough is never the goal unless you are an idiot or just plan to never fully enjoy the game. Meanwhile Destiny's "Story" is done after 8 hours and its the same exact shit everytime. My god I haven't laughed that hard in awhile. I need that thanks.

The game itself has been done - core story in under 2 hours 40 minutes. That's quicker than Destiny's core story. Anything outside of that is the same grinding as destiny has. Do x, go to y, kill z are not fantastic bits of game design they are fluff. Your holy grail of games you used as an example is exactly the same. Added grind to increase play time.

[/quote] As if "The Game Itself" is to be measured in JUST the core story and not the rest of the game that's available. Skyrim could be speed run in less than 2 hours....does that make the game less than 2 hours to play? My -blam!-ing god you dug yourself your own hole and then threw yourself inside while on fire and pissing yourself lmao I gotta give you credit for trying to troll at least lol I mean you failed entirely and anyone that has played both games will call you a -blam!-ing fool, but hey at least you tried. Honest to god though I haven't laughed that much in months. Thanks for the laugh kid.
