Not trying to poop on you, but I've seen you and hundreds of others conflate registered users with units sold. D2 did not sell 14-15M units. Registered users consist of tons of siblings, roommates, romantic partners and spouses on the same unit sold. They have always made public registered user numbers rather than units sold because it will be higher by a significant margin, and they know most people will make said conflation. Of course, you're correct that even 2 or 3M is better than 1M.

You simply do not know what you’re talking about. Between D1 $ D2 they sold over 50 million units generating over $3 billion in revenue not counting micro transactions, expansions and season passes.

No, that would be you, presenting no source for a number that simply does not add up.

Edited by MONKEYGOTRABIES: 9/22/2019 11:10:44 AMBelieve it or not, I read that article as well. Unlike you, I understood it. That's INCLUDING THE EXPANSIONS!!! It's literally in the -blam!-ing tagline of the article, right below the title: "The studio says it sold 50 million copies of Destiny and Destiny 2, INCLUDING EXPANSIONS!" That's 50M units of D1, The Taken King, Rise of Iron, D2, and Forsaken. And that's assuming we're going to count all of the rest of the content as "dlc" and not "expansions." That's an average of 10M units sold per title. Boy, there's nothing like THINKING you're smart. So yeah, you're the one who doesn't know what he's talking about, so please, stop talking out of your ass thanks to shit-poor reading comprehension.

Then my point still stands :-D

No, it definitely does, I've just always been baffled how no one gets that registered users and units sold aren't the same thing, and that the latter is definitely much lower, potentially half of the former.

Perhaps but there also those that brought several copies soooo

It wouldn't bring sales up to or even approaching the number of registered users especially with the 1-2M registered users thanks to free giveaways. You know how I know? Not once have they publicized sales figures in the last five years. Not once, but throughout D1 they touted the number of registered users.
