Mass panic over... $15 bucks. Lmfao

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]

  • Deej specifically announced there would be no raid with HoW. Why make that announcement unless you know that your community is expecting a Raid, and that you have pre-sold millions of dollars of product based on that expectation. $15 can mean from a minute to an hour of work to most. Try to take $15 from someone. But you're right; its not wasting time over. You think we should give more $ to Bungie, whatever. But I'm tired of those Bungie Bitches crying about raid reception and needing more time to make a raid. It's been 8 fkn months and all they can do to placate us is give a fancy name to a strike. Bungie, charge what you need to, hire who you have to, but get something done you lazy toilet scrapings. And you idiotic, republican, tea-party, Bungie Fanboys: stop supporting Activision's abuse of Bungie's product! Stop coddling your game publishers! They can do much better!

    • Im sorry but il cry and whine as much as i want. You see i bought a game only to find it had been completely gutted out and then sold back to me as dlc. I bought a game that was advertised to me as a unique story experience with a mass open world to explore and then still to this day, i have no idea where the story is in this game. I bought a game that has massive open world to explore with absolutely -blam!- all in it. I bought a game so repetitive at end game, it makes asian mmos look appealing. I bought a game with the worst rng system ive ever seen. You can invest 300 hours of gameplay and get jack, then someone plays for an hour and finds the holy grail. This game is wank and the sooner you fanbois stop defending this gorillas arsehole of a game the better. Peace out!

        • Its only a few die hard raiders who love repetition to boost their ego who are complaining :U Every1 else can see the arena has a lot more potential & a chance for replay ability which none of destinys pve is known for

            • They even said they were developing a raid to be released later. People do need to stop whining. We are gonna get a raid, just later on when they perfect it, so it isn't like CE was. That's perfectly fine. And there's gonna be 2 new gamemodes. 1 PvP and 1 PvE. Arena, and the Trials of Osiris. People are crying over nothing.

                      • I agree mostly. But I also understand those who smell class-action. Certainly you wouldn't want to give $15 to all those others who are disgruntled? It adds up. I get that some people feel like it's fleecing. Regardless of how someone feels about this the only way to truly voice your concern is through your money. I for one won't give bungie blind allegiance by preordering anymore. I want to know what I'm buying before paying from now on. Be a smart consumer. Again, I do understand your perspective.

                      • I will start by stating that raiding with my guild mates is one of the more enjoyable experiences within Destiny so I cannot truthfully say that I am not disappointed that there will be no raid released with HoW. That being said I know enough about game development and the sheer amount of work that goes into make any amount content to the quality that the developers aspire to and the gamers demand. As such I do not have any issue with Bungie delaying the release of raid content if it means not getting something rushed/half-assed when it is released. While I think there may be some validity to the question of content to $$ given that HoW will have less content than TDB yet cost the same amount of money I do think it is being blown WAY out of proportion given the very valid points made by the OP about how the typical adult human person spends money on a day to day basis for entertainment or other. If Bungie nails the 3 man Arena it may prove to be just as enjoyable if not more so than raiding in its current evolution. Also with the highly implied upgrade paths to existing raid gear (and possibly other legendary gear) to the new level cap Bungie has the opportunity to introduce higher leveled versions of the existing raids (as I believe they should have done with TDB) to give players an additional reason to revisit their favorite haunts.

                      • I have over 800 hr in so far, so my entertainment value is ~ 10 cents per hour, pretty cheap no matter where you live. Also, didn't anyone read the disclaimer, Content can change at Bungies disgression. That kind of says it all.

                        Most people are like you and me :) we understand and except whats going on, and are excited about the future. However, you have a portion of immature young adults who have led an army of children into the false mindset that we are being cheated. Even with that army of children I still believe they are the minority. They just seem to be the vocal majority because they think they have a right to be upset about something and feel the need (with the help of anonymity) to complain and demand on every corner about how entitled they are. Can't wait for HoW btw!
