So your argument is that a blatant cash grab is ok? Also Bungie is a seasoned developer they should know better than to do this to us. If I want the complete destiny experience I should buy the DLC that comes out 2 months after release and the next expansion which will probably be in 4 months. And then there will probably be another seasons pass after that I bet. The only reason I haven't boycotted this game is because my 2 sale is not gona have a big impact and I will get the DLC because it's not a lot of money to me but I know many people who are on a tight budget and can't afford to be bent over like that. It's an immoral practice taken to an extreme and if ya can't beat em join em.

  • So you can list reasons as to why BL2 is better based off of its DLC but I can't counter and say it's unfair to compare a completed game to an incomplete one? And I'm not saying what they did was or is right. However assuming all the on disk DLC is 100% complete looking at it from a business aspect I can understand why they did what they did. Every single one of us would do the same thing if we had a product and where capable of releasing parts of it at a time to make more money. And if you really felt that strongly about how they wronged you by doing that you wouldn't buy the DLC you'd stop playing the game and return it. The only way to get a company to listen is by not giving them your money not venting on a forum and saying you're still going to buy the DLC. If anything that makes it worse because now they know they can get away with it.

  • Every game should be judged based on how it is at the moment the comparison is fair because Bungie had the option to either push the game back or include all the content in it. Instead they went for the cash grab. As such there is no excuse for having an unfinished game on the market and once it is released it should be treated like a full game.

  • But parts of your argument as to why BL2 is better is based on its DLC... And if you really want to get down to it there was parts of the BL2 story that made no sense at all and now they are using a second game to further that story. So using your logic is BL2 a bad game because you have to spend $60 to fill in the holes and get the back story? I get that you want everying laid out in front of you but that's not how the world works and the sooner you understand that the better it will be.

  • 1/15 of my argument includes DLC that was created after the games release not before but after and was not a continuation of the main story(which made perfect sense I really don't know where you got that it doesn't but ok). So let's just ignore the fact that 7.5% of my argument is based on dlc. Why are you defending Destiny's DLC practices? The content is on the disc. The content is complete and is not accessible to the consumer.
