[spoiler]For the sake of my own personal amusement, and probably a few other people's too: I'm getting real tired of your ****, Tyrone~![/spoiler] On another note, I agree with a lot of what you've said. Destiny is an exceptionally good game in comparison to the rinse, dry and repeat titles that players are swarming towards at this moment in time. However, a lot of your points are coming from the perspective of an average consumer, and not a developer or an artist. Granted, the pricing could be revised. $20 for Expansion One? No, the RAID isn't even a RAID... It's an overzealous Strike. Expansion Two was the make-or-break for me with Destiny. I was promised trading, customisation and a whole heap of other goodies when Destiny was in development, and we got given a game that still needed a whole year of development on top of it. Thankfully, I didn't actually pay the $35 price for the Expansion Pass, I won it in a bet. So it wasn't me that was directly affected by the expansions being a failure. It wasn't until I saw Expansion Two and the fact that the Digital Guardian Edition was $50 on the XBL Marketplace that I jumped on it - the reason being that I don't want to risk forking out the same price for another disc should I break it, which happens a lot. The Taken King's $40 price-tag was fair, considering it's basically a game on top of the game. In my opinion, $5 for EX1, $10 for EX2, and $20 for TTK.

  • Haha! People probably think i'm some random black dude too! Yeah destiny isn't bad, it just could be much better, just like having a in depth awesome story with lots of in-game content (like what we thought it would be pre-release) would've amount to a 10/10 rating in my eyes which is great, but from a business standpoint having a great selling 6.5/10 game with multiple paid DLC's every year is more profitable 'cause that's business folks. They don't want to call DLC 1&2 expansions because they want to make TTK sound like it's worth $40...and it isn't because as you said the first 2 DLC's were not great value to begin with, I got the all-in-one edition when it first came out so I had no choice on getting the DLC's when they were announced they weren't that great, if I had known I would've waited till this year and bought the legendary edition! Yes those figures seem much more inline with what I objectively see as value within this game with how it is.

  • I'll be honest, I thought that at first. So, I apologise. I just wanted the laughs before I depressed people. I'm not sure I would consider the "Expansion Pass" as a "Season Pass", since most Season Passes actually operate over the entire duration of the game they're released for. The Expansion Pass only unlocked two expansions, as it stated. If they'd have spaced out the levels a little more to make it more of a challenge, since two levels isn't good enough, then it would be a little more understandable. I'm talking ten levels of grinding between each expansion. Two levels really wasn't enough.

  • Yes I was totally confused as to why such a small level increase, I wasn't expecting 20 levels or anything but damn only 2 was disappointing.
