In D1 when Eververse started there were TONS of us who tried to Warn the community that Eververse would bring around what is happening today and will continue to get worse. We were ridiculed and mocked by The Bungie Defense Force (BDF), till we stopped wasting our time trying to warn the community.
We told you so.....
Personally I do not believe anything will change. Keep trying and good luck.
To you BDF Members who will have their panties in a bunch, go-head and comment its your right.

BDF - Bungie Defence Force Lol Thought I’d spell it out for them cos they seem to be not the brightest engrams in the loot box.

Exactly this. I remember this PD podcast wit the old crew about microtransactions about those level up boosts but mostly about what could be whillst bungie promised us they wouldnt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRzaMa7oO6g&list=PL-ncH812VtHE_WOUeEyd2jvzgRak4encq&index=101 I also dont think things will not change, simply because they are to late (hope not tho). They take EV out the few that are still here are happy but bungie doenst make money and destiny dies. They let it in everybody stops playing bungie doesnt make money and destiny dies.....

Not true. Did everyone stop playing Halo CE, 2 and 3? During that time in the gaming world, you could EARN gear and awards without paying for them. For example in Halo 3, Recon Armor was the hardest item to grind for. But if you got it you were the baddass in PVP. Nobody had to pay for it, all you had to do was earn it. There were groups the helped players complete some of the hardest achievements, for example The Spartan One Project (S1P). EV is the way to take a $60 on the consumer level (who should HAVE access to EVERYTHING) and force the consumer to pay $200 extra. It is ONLY there to make additional profit for the company and has NOTHING to do with building or providing in-game content.

I was one of those who were ridiculed, and attacked for calling out bungo on the slippery slope micro transactions bring about, i was also ridiculed and attacked for totally predicting what this game was as soon as I played the beta for about an hour. And they say I’m the crazy one

You are sooo right.

I was one of those people who were ridiculed. You should point out that most of the people crying about Eververse now were part of the Bungie Defense Force during D1. 90% of them. They enabled all of this by buying Bungie products. They made their bed and now lie in it. It's actually pathetic. But it's more than that. It wasn't just Eververse that tipped me off long ago that this crap would happen. I knew when I heard that Bungie hired psychologists to help them make a game similar to a casino, preying on players' addictions. And it was obvious in the way loot was handled. But I was ridiculed when I pointed it out. I was told to stop playing if I don't like it, and to GTFO. Now I'm laughing at them.

You are correct. Just wait till a group of ATTNY's decide to get together, or even just one; and with a little work they could build a case that EV develops gambling addictions within a person. It has been proven that gambling is a sickness with many statutory laws on the books about it. Because of those laws about gambling, and once they prove EV is a form of gambling all you need to do is take a small jump to the side and you have a class action law suit and potentially; Felonies (under 18), because one can argue in court and prove children, tweens, and teens are now gamblers because of EV. Activision and Bungie are opening themselves to some HUGE liability issues.
