Once The Division, No Man's Sky, Persona 5, FFXV, & Deep Down come out Destiny is hitting the shelf. It was fun while it lasted, but sadly that fun has died out and turned into regret. Regret of spending $100 on a game that I knew so little about, I honestly thank Bungie for opening up my eyes and showing me all the flaws of pre-ordering a game. Never again will I mindlessly throw money at something I know so little about.

And that is the exact repercussion of going down the path with Activision that Bungie did. Sure, they already have our money for Destiny and the Expansion Pass. But actions like they are taking now only ensure that their initial customers don't become repeat customers. Now that Zenimax Online Studios announced the console version release for TESO, and it will not have a sub fee, Bungie/Activision and their Destiny experiment could be in very real jeopardy as 2015 rolls along. They need to make changes, and the Gamer community at large will not wait until Comet and/or Destiny 2 launch.
-
Wait what? TESO won't have a sub fee in console? Really?
-
Really really. The game is being re-released as "The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited" There is the initial purchase of the game ($60 USD), then you can play as much as you want for free. There is a "premium" service that you can purchase in addition to the game if you'd like. There are several time period lengths that you can purchase "premium" time for.

Apparently not. Smart move. Console gamers already pay one yearly fee for online gaming. They will probably charge small fees for regular updates though.
-
yep. That's what they changed to. You'll have the typical one big fee up front for the game. Then you can opt in for the "Tamriel Unlimited" package which apparently gets you more of the game, faster, and the DLC for a year. But Destiny has really burned me on purchasing these DLC packages.
-
True. But if the "Tamriel Unlimited" package is a good balance between price and content, it's fair. I think what burned many out on Destiny is that TDB was probably more a $10 DLC than a $20 expansion.
-
Correct. What I should have written was that I'm no longer just blindly purchasing the DLC package at the start. And I fully expect that Bethesda will have more content within their DLC than I will technically ever consume. I didn't ever finish the last two DLC packages associated with skyrim. And that is what I use as a benchmark now for defining value with DLCs.

Nice username, by the way.

Edited by Silvurphlame: 1/23/2015 3:03:45 PMAnd same here. For better or worse, Skyrim has, for me, set the bar for what a full $20 expansion should deliver relative to the $60 base.
-
Oh yes. I still haven't finished Skyrim. (Went back to school, which of course occupied the majority of my non-work time). I should do that…
