Festival of the Cost.

Shout out to everyone reminding me of the actual event name (festival of the cost). I changed the title ^^ [b]Let's talk about the Festival of the Lost real quick:[/b] Some great Items, such as new ornaments, sparrows and other stuff found there way into the game, but: There is absolutely no reason to play the Haunted Forrest at all. All new stuff is only available in Eververse. Some Items are sold for Bright Dust, for a BIG Amount of Bright Dust, what makes it impossible to grind for the new Items, in comparison to the small Amount of Bright Dust you can actually get by doing bounties. You want new gear? You wont get rewarded by actually playing the game. You can pay if you wanna look great. Im actually paying a lot of money in and for video games. But in games like Destiny or any other Loot Shooter or MMO, I want to look sick, because I completed challenging activities, a huge grind or at least some Bounties for it, but not because of my credit card. [EDIT 2.0] [i]Lets forget Eververse stuff for a second. This Event offers exactly 1 Item to play for. An Auto Rifle. Also, there's a little quest line and some emblems. You can finish everything in about 5 hours. An Event should bring us all together, farming for new stuff with new activities. But there is only 1 Item. Instead of defending Bungie think about it for a second. ''Dont play it'', some say. Actually i would love to enjoy Destiny! But I have to say: This ''Event'' is garbage. Sorry, but playing around 4 hours for some Emblems and a new gun, spending the Rest of the time browsing Eververse, is no Event for me. [/i] [EDIT]: 1. Some guys are complaining, I didnt mention the AR. I said, there is no reason to play Haunted Forrest. And actually, there isn't. You'll be faster getting this gun by playing PvP. 2. Its not about the money. Im pretty sure, that most of us could effort buying some silver. My problem, as I mentioned: GEAR is one of the most important aspects of this game. Thats why I think, you should only get it for playing, not for paying. Especially in comparison to the whole reskinned, shitty looking stuff they presented us last seasons. Im not even complaining on stuff like Ghost Shells or Sparrows. Cosmetics, okay. There is actually not that much outstanding gear to farm for (unique gear, special design, like Trials of Osiris Gear for example). That makes it even worse, when Gear Sets show up, wich actually look way better then everything you can farm for (except new raid gear / good shit). I feel like, they put way more work into their Eververse, than into their actual game. But go ahead and clear the new dungeon, some awesome stuff to get here #kappa [EDIT 3.0] Thanks to @Odin for this: https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/46567 Eververse We recognize that the scales are tipped too far towards Tess at the moment, and Eververse was never intended to be a substitute for end game content and rewards. So, we’ll be making three changes for upcoming "Seasons:" We’re shifting the balance of new content in favor of activity rewards over Bright Engrams. This includes adding Ghosts, Sparrows, and ships (to date found only in Bright Engrams) to achievement reward pools. We'll provide a gameplay path to earn Bright Engrams and (all contained rewards including Event Engrams). We’ll give players more direct purchase options and make adjustments to Bright Engrams to allow players to get the items they want more often.

  • Refresh my memory. How much is Bungie charging you for this event? Oh, and what other content did Bungie release this week? I seem to recall a new dungeon....a new horde mode (Altars of Sorrow)....and a new exotic weapon quest....in addition to the return of the Haunted Forest. But do people see this? Did people hear Bungie say that everything will be purchasable with bright dust before the event is over and there are unlimited bounties you can do for bright dust? NO.....all they see is the bright, shiny stuff in the store...and then they start to cry.....
