So i see these forums about you guys being happy about the whole "$20 dollars off" well guess what, ya'll are fools. Bungie/Activision knew for a fact that we would get aggravated & feel cheated by offering us TTK & nonsense extras for $80. They wanted us to feel like that so they can come on in & swoop us off our feet with this "we dropped price tag by $20 for you guys, we heard, we listen." crap. Guess what? The original price tag was going to be $60 either way. It's a simple business marketing technique. Raise the price from the ideal price tag, buyers will feel cheated, make buyer happy with 'reasonable' discount, profits never lost. It'll be a win-win for them. But I'm not falling for it. Bungie has gone way too far on this one. I'm not supporting their game anymore. At least not until they clean up their huge mess & offer us a much better deal.

This is why I'm only getting the $40 TTK only. I definitely don't need to the other cosmetic junk. I'll spend the extra $20 to pre-order Halo 5 instead.

At least some people on these forums have common sense. A rare thing.

Edited by FractalMass: 6/26/2015 1:08:36 AMIt's hard to say what the plan was. They totally would have sold this for $80, with no alternative, if there had been no uproar. I'm sure they would have been perfectly happy to do so. Now that there has been uproar, they have to go for their fallback position (which is still overpriced). Best thing is to vote with our feet. I stayed out of Destiny from December until May, when Bungie seemed to be turning over a new leaf with HoW. Now that Bungie will be back to greedyville in September, it may be time for me to avoid it again.

Did you recently get a promotion to Captain, Crewman Obvious?

Super bump

People are finally waking up to the manipulative shit Bungie has been pulling. This is good. The more people become aware, the more likely they won't be screwed over by corporate greed and Bungivision loses money. Win win.
-
Lower it to $10! If we were to buy the $40 expansion and pay $20 for the extras, that's still the same price for the Legendary edition, so we are still paying the price for the base game!
-
They will try tho! lmao -blam!-ers.

This is despicable bungie.. How dumb do you think we are? Trying to make us pay 20 dollars for hot keys in social areas you don't even wanna be in...

Edited by Unforgiven: 6/25/2015 5:32:46 PMI agree with you, Bungie has made way too many mistakes with Destiny. one if the is hiring that smug asshole DeeJ, as he is out of touch with Destiny fans for so long that we stopped caring, and another is not communicating with the fans. i understand that they can't implement changes quickly, but at the least they should give out some free dlc packs like the other companies are doing. It wont hurt them, it will only show gamers that they arent money hungry assholes. P.s. Their weekly fanboy updates don't show the truth of whats actually happening in destiny. he isn't mentioning what people are talking about on the forums unless Luke smith does an interview. The apology was nice but then that promotional Red Bull text said that "Destiny players are used to paying premium for content". Did you read that whole thing? that was ill times indeed. bungie should put their money where their mouth is, i wont believe it till i see it. but i am still hopeful that today's update brings something good to Destiny that is free and is not paid extra.
