Micro Transactions Don't Belong in $60 games.

There's no justification for it. Even if I don't spend a dime myself doesn't mean it's not sick that I paid for this game and every expansion pass and still have items blocked off from me. It doesn't matter what items your selling. It doesn't matter how cheap they are. You're taking advantage of people and it's wrong. It's not a debate.

            Block from you? Well obviously if you don't pay for something, then it's going to be lock from you. And if you say "oh bungie probably cut it from the game" well, maybe they did during development. You hear that? [u]during development[/u]. Maybe those things, such as emotes had plans for future things, like this. But it seems to me that these are new, considering it took them a year to implement them and se them.

          • You know a games named Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat? Yeah, they have been charging for costume packs for years, yet no one bitches about that. And it could be worse, Battlefield let you buy your way to the to guns. So a new person could have the same top tier weapons as the next guy that did the grind from day 1. We all know how much money mobile games make on micro transactions, so to think they won't come into this gaming space is rediculous. [spoiler]Companies aren't in it to give you a great game.... they are in it to make $$$$$[/spoiler]

              You got what you paid for, you are neither owed nor entitled to any additional content. Any new content that is developed and released cost money to make and should be paid for. You are NOT being ripped off. If they want to do micro transactions all the better, that way we can pick and choose just the content we want and skip the stuff we don't want.

                  • Destiny is an always online evolving game. This is not your typical 8 hour $60 shooter. It costs money every single day to keep Destiny running.

                  • The alternative is rolling that price into a couple $20 dlc's over the next year. Pay $40 more bucks over the next year or suck it up buttercup and enjoy the free content that bungie is trying to give you.

                    Look at it this way - there were no emotes before. Now there will be. It will be paid for by microtransactions. Done. Over. That's it. Don't make it a bigger deal than it is.

                  • What the -blam!- are you talking about? It is a business. They are not running a charity. Numerous other games have this and their is just a bunch of entitled cry babies in this community. You will all learn one day nothing is free. And if you expect whomever at bungie to take the time to make this stuff for free you guys are nuts. Would you work for free? I sure as hell wouldn't. You need to grasp the idea of what a business is and take it for what it is. If you want it, buy it. If not, don't. Shouldn't effect you either way unless you want to buy some stupid dance moves.

                      • Let's look at the most monetarily successful video game franchise: CoD. Whether you like it or not, the cod franchise has been extremely successful, and it has plenty of microtransactions. Sorry everyone, but this is a business for Bungie, and profit is the ultimate goal.

                        • What is with the knee jerk reactions to the microtransactions? Theyre not even essential to anything. Anything made content wise after your initial purchase of the game is fair game to be sold. Quit crying. Youre not being locked out of anything.
