Wanna get rid of eververse. Consider this.
So, you think a optional, non-obtrusive, easy to ignore store in the game is bad, or even evil?
Think on this. every piece of content will be behind a paywall, so mayhem would be gone behind a paywall (why give away a free mode when you have to pay people to build it?), nightfall will be behind a paywall (to keep it relevant with ever increasing light levels), the leviathan raid will be gone behind a paywall or become obsolete.(remember in D1 when they didn't keep raids light relevant, i do), bungie needs to pay money to develop things, and businesses need to make a profit. eververse sells cosmetic gear. nothing more, nothing less, and it also provides funding to the studio between expansions. Eververse paid for mayhem, masterworks, the dawning, and all the updates that well get for free, including private matches next year.
So do you want to stop loosing your minds about a trivial ingame function? for me personally. i would rather have eververse than have to buy membership, or premium access, or a DLC every month, which in the long run, will cost everyone more than eververse ever did.

2 RepliesI won't use it, and I hope you won't either. It's a stimulation of the pleasure center of your brain to induce further spending via gambling tactics. This is recognized by several psychologists, scientists and politicians. Even other/ex-Game designers acknowledge this. We don't want it removed because it isn't something fun. We want it removed because it is harmful. If it wasn't gambling it away for random chance, and instead the ability to buy the specific item you want at any given time (even on a rotation schedule) then I'd be perfectly fine with it. That's getting what you want, not stimulating your brain for "ANOTHER CHANCE DO IT DO IT YOU ALMOST GOT THERE"
