I read all these comments and started thinking "imagine a world where we can't have anything if we don't do it ourselves instead of paying someone to do what we aren't capable of doing". There would be some scary ass houses, decks, yards, vehicles, the list goes on. The day the gaming mentality of"you can have it if you did it get it on your own" evolves to real world scenario of" You can't hire someone to build that deck, you have to build it yourself" I will probably lose my shit. It doesn't matter how someone gets what they have. Jo3y_not4l3nt paying TTV-Ball-licker to get him his whatever is no different than my neighbor paying the local contractor to tear out and build a new deck. The sad thing is those of us who only play regular stuff get regular items and those who are no lifing end game get the same items with a paint job and maybe a somewhat situationally better perk. If people want to pay for that more power to them and it doesn't effect how I play anything. [spoiler]Making lots of popcorn now. I know this is going to bring lots of salt[/spoiler]

Not everyone can build walls,floors and other skilled tasks like nurses and doctors. It's a completely different ballpark. Only thing the same is money.

  • Not everyone has the skill nor the time to complete certain activities which is why I used the analogy that I did.

  • You seem to mistaking a job or profession with something you do for fun. Would you pay someone to go see a movie for you?

  • At a movie you don’t have to waste your time grinding a monotonous chore list that will poop you out shard fodder for all the time you just wasted doing something you didn’t want to do, let’s not start on the fact that a person paying to do this typically can’t do it themselves, that alone is a service worth charging. As for a movie? You don’t have to do anything but sit there and watch for the entertainment, competitive/hacker ridden and smurfed games make this almost undoable for those who don’t have the time or skill, they do have the money though, probably because they’re out working instead of sitting in their house all day long playing destiny 2. As the old saying goes, money talks.

  • I think you just answered your own user name. If you find the game monotonous, don't play it.

  • [quote]those of us who only play regular stuff get regular items and those who are no lifing end game get the same items[/quote] Its like that because of people who whine and pay and cheat. Other than that, these posts show that there's only so many logical comparisons between the game and the "real world." Its strange too because a lot of people talk about how doing something in the game doesn't matter in the real world but apparently what you do in the real world is supposed to matter in the game. Maybe if people stopped thinking so much about how Destiny is like their backyard deck they'd be able to do a little better in their matches.

  • Interesting analogy but games are a bit different 🤷‍♀️? Like maybe I could buy someones Olympic medal and put it on my wall and say it’s my accomplishment but that would be delusional. Paying some stranger for a carry is kinda dangerous- some have had accounts wiped I hear.
