Why are people posting its ok to accept this because its free?

Every time i read a post there is always an argument with someone posting the game is free get over it. Most people have paid over three digits to this game. Just because its free to people who didn't want to pay doesn't take away from the vast sums paid in the beginning .We kept this game alive and have a right to complain if content suxs. The seasons are lazy and we paid for them thru season pass. The reward system needs an overhaul

  • It's free and it ain't worth spit. If going free didn't help player numbers, clearly it's an internal issue and something is definitely wrong here.

    • What you paid for past versions of the game do not dictate what the current games model should be. You got what you paid for [i]back then[/i] so you cant use that now as a cudgel for your disappointment in seasons. Also, many people aren't saying it's ok in a flat context, they're saying it's [i]understandable[/i] that a f2p game can have issues, or for 3 months if content at $3/month shouldn't have the same expectations as dlc from the past.

      • Honestly... I'm sorry but f2p players don't get to say what is or isn't acceptable. They paid absolutely nothing, and now get to enjoy the majority of the content we sat thru, grinding, waiting to be fixed, PAID FOR, and then some. Good on your for liking the game and enjoying what's available to you, but unless you put the money most of us have, into it, you'll never understand what we're upset about...and this shit has been happening since D1.

        • Or using "the season was only $10 so what did you expect". I expect quality content no matter what the content is or the cost. Using that line is like saying it's ok that they don't try and just keep using the shop as our end-game content.

            • F2P is killing pvp. Account bans mean nothing to them especially on pc. No part of Destiny should be free. If ppl wanna run in the crucible they should have to pay for that privilege. Let them have the base Pve gameplay but not pvp. But ya know how Bungie loves that Eververse money. I

            • Not only is this game NOT free but when it went “F2P”, Bungo didn’t even offer a token of appreciation to all those who were there beforehand. I played DCUO on the (then) PS3 and when it went “F2P”, they offered numerous trinkets to the existing members of their community. But I digress, back to the conversation at hand…

            • I don’t feel I’ve gotten anything for free at any point. Every September I pay about 60 bucks for the comet release and season pass. How is that free? Anyone?

            • Warframe is free to play and is in way better shape than this game. They have a dev team that actually listens and creates fun content. Bungie needs to take a page from their book

              • For most of us it wasn't free. It was 60 or so for the game. And even if you bought the deluxe edition you still have to pay full price for each DLC. So 20-40$ each. And then 10$ per season on top of that.

              • I bet The people who defend bungie and say it’s free have spent money more than $100 on the game including season content, the base game etc.

              • It's not free It's "free" You get base game and poorly done dlcs as part of it. Is that free? Yeah. But it's also nearly worthless. Anything worth playing, you still need to pay for. Before they went free to play you could snag what they're offering for cheap. 2 of the 3 platforms had already gotten base D2 for free anyways. The fact of the matter is the majority of people playing the game have bought into it. It's "free" for significantly smaller group of players

              • Anybody who plays this game has just as much right to criticize any and all features of it whether they paid or not. There. I just fixed that argument. Next?

                  Free? To whom? Maybe to the last September kinderguardians. I've spent several hundred of euros in this franchise since 2014 and none of that money went to microtransactions, not even a cent. I can see myself as a "founder" or "supporter" of this franchise since the very beginning of it. I was one of the many thousands that kept this game alive through 6 years. Free? LOL, those kids don't know shit about it.

                  • Except for 16m+ players Destiny never was free. If you played since D1 it's cost over £450 and that's before eververse. Using the £10 for a season pass argument doesn't wash either, Forsakens annual pass cost £30 for 3 seasons that dropped 2 raids, several pve activities and exotics ect. Previous Annual passes were roughly £15 per dlc content drop. The problem is Bungie feel that releasing content at a steady release makes up for lack of quality. This FOMO attitude was never going to work, using temporary seasons to progress the narrative of a PvE story driven game was the worst decision Bungie made and that's saying alot. Bungie should have cut back the rate in which it was going to drop content, twice a year would have been suffice, as long as the quality was good. The live team could still have created seasonal events to liven things up a little, Vex offensive, Sundial, Seraph bunkers could easily have been fun events that didn't impact the wider Destiny narrative and keeping players engaged. Whilst allowing the core team to concentrate of proper story driven dlc release every 6 months.

                    • The game isn’t free to play. Two largest DLC still price tagged an every season costs money. I love how the base game and the two worst DLC that no one liked becomes free and suddenly the whole game is free to play ahah. It’s like “let’s charge everyone for all content, then as soon as it’s not relevant anymore say it’s free, that way no one can complain that the content is garbage and we still get all the money while masking as a free game allowing is to justify micro transactions” It’s genius to be honest but I’m not buying it. This game is not free to play.
