2 breakfast sandwiches - $8 bucks
Redbull $3.30
Girls coffee $2
Around $4 bucks in gas driving to work.
Before 9 am i spent $17.30 by default. This is automatic. By the days end I'll be minimum $35 in.
Yet people are complaining they got a bare minimum of 50 hours of entertainment (it will be way more) for $15 bucks? You feel you were OWED a raid? No. I'm sorry to break the news to you, but you aren't OWED anything. In the game, or in life.
Take you're imaginary girlfriend to see a movie, two tickets are $25+ all day...for [b]an hour and a half of entertainment[/b]
There's a new mode, that every single one of you whining, babbling, cry babies are completely dismissing before you even know what it is. How bout you shut the -blam!- up, man up, grab your balls and stop being such spoiled little self entitled muts to society.
[b]EDIT. Alot of comment are pouring in with people saying things like "if I ordered a steak and potatoes, but got no steak I'd be pissed". Of course I would, because I ORDERED that. Video games are not -blam!-ing made a la carte. They are made by companies, pre determined, and we buy them. We don't customize them before purchase.[/b]
[b]EDIT 2. Did anyone stop to think maybe bungie is delaying the raid so people don't jump head first into it, and actually get to enjoy all the new, hard worked content first? Just a thought.[/b]
[b]EDIT 3 my favorite one of all. This thread generated a ton of response, way more than I expected. What I like is that the vast majority of the responses are level headed people who agree. There is hope.[/b]
[b]FINAL EDIT - I see a lot people turning this into my "spending habits are flawed" if I knew what I was doing with money I wouldn't buy the game type of thread. I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but spending habits and budgeting are RELATIVE to what you earn. Video games like any other leisure are an EARNED RIGHT. I'm 31 now, and from 18 to about 26 I didn't even own a gaming console. Growing up when I lived home with mommy and daddy and did, because it didn't matter. Once I got priorities in order,in put games down for almost 8 years. Now at 31, I've set myself up with a years of hard work that I can sit back and enjoy my leisures comfortably. If i gamed as much in my 20's as I've been in the past 3 months I probably would have lost my job eventually. $30 a day on misc items may be a lot to some people, and I respect that, nor do I look down on you for it. I happen to do well for myself, not because of luck or having things handed to me...but because I busted my ass and made tons of sacrafices. So no, my 20 to 30 bucks daily wasn't the point of this thread. The point was if you had any respect for work, man hours, and a dollar, you'd understand that 15-20 bucks for the content that you're getting is WELL WORTH IT. Don't give "bungie promised me" bs either. Don't be mad at bungie for believing an unofficial leak.[/b]

Edited by DatFruit: 4/16/2015 3:18:14 AMMy stance on it is yes people can and have a right to get mad about it but I think everyone should wait and give HoW and the arena a chance before they automatically dismiss it and call it shit. Adding in another method of getting gear/weapons will probably end up helping the game and give more variety in what to do. Trials of Osiris will definitely help pvp since people already love iron banner so now there's another pvp event to look forward to and it'll probably spark interest in people who do more pve than pvp like me. Also who knows the arena might be amazing and what this game needs and they did state they're working on a raid that probably will be released later on as part of HoW. I could be wrong but I feel like they're just trying to make it really good and not -blam!- up like they did with crotas end. Sorry for the long read ;-;

Well said

The entertainment value and full jars of tears on these forums is worth easily $15.
-
Dude i paid $38 for both season passes but im not pissed I know bungie is ganna pull through #rememberReach

You have point...
-
Oh dayum.
-
Finally someone who has the right opinion! Love u 4 that statement bro!
-
Yeah but complaining is fun tho. But your right on point I remember back in the day spending about 100 bucks for a few hours at the bar... But still they are on a good path of nickel and diming us trying to figure out what the hell they are doing. If it would have been a finished product on release it might be a different story. However they are charging us to screw up over and over with their excuse being "destiny is a such a new concept of game, you will have to learn with us" WRONG not a new concept it's a couple genres in one your a huge company that didn't start yesterday. If you going to mess up, fine I understand that, but don't continue to charge us for your learning curve. Look at what rockstar does to back up gta 5. Yeah heists took way too long to come out but it's free. Destiny would just give us half a dlc and charge us again for the other half much like the game itself.

I will say this...everyone has a point in this argument or at the very least a valid concern. True 15 dollars isn't that much but...it's an unnecessary expense while breakfast is pretty important. And sure we might play the content for more than 50 hours but..... how long to actually play everything once? Like 10 hours tops. Ppl do need to remember what type of game this is....a game built on the grind wheel. The only thing I truly dislike is that you can skip all of the other content with vendor gear. That makes no sense to me. Other than that...we will have to wait and see. The dark below realistically had like 4 hours of content. ...so that was far more disappointing than how could possibly be

I spend $15 just to buy Starbucks for me and my girlfriend every morning on the way to work with a muffin. I'm 20 years old, if I can do that, you can grab your sack and spend $15 on something that'll bring more than a few sips of an iced latte
-
Lol you could probably find $15 on a street in a rich neighborhood, $15 is nothing now days
-
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!! Common sense is so rare on these forums. Bump
-
$20, bud.
-
Keep the fight going friend, you nailed it.
-
I totally agree with you man. But seriously, if I spent like that I would be homeless.
-
Yeah I agree. As time passes, the haters are slowly dwindling. Eventually we might actually be rid of the large majority of haters, which will lead to a stronger community. Never understood the appeal of following / commenting on a game you don't enjoy. Good hunting Guardians!!!
-
I appreciate the new game mode that doesn't take 6 people to complete. I'm a full time student and part time worker, it's hard for me to get a full group on a raid. I'm excited to see what house of wolves has to offer
-
When will people like you realize it's not about the money? It was never about the money.
-
What really irks me is all these people complaining about not getting a raid... I bet I could take 5 of them to a hard crota right now and they wouldn't be able to do the bridge part legit lmao
-
Can I be the first to obnoxiously state that I went to Iraq for Destiny to be what it was advertised as? Can I, please? Haha
-
So your saying my blunt = DLC..?
