$20 emotes VS $20 tacos

[b][i]Greetings![/i][/b] also, [b][i]TGIF. [/i][/b] Today we'll discuss $20 for emotes, and [b][i]tacos.[/i][/b] Whenever I think of money, I think of tacos. It's a very easy way to think [b][i]"is that worth buying?"[/i][/b] For example, are those shoes worth [b][i]100 tacos?[/i][/b] The answer is no, I'd rather wear $5 generic shoes [b][i]WHILE EATING 100 TACOS.[/i][/b] This brings us to the $20 [b][i]Collectors Edition Digital Upgrade.[/i][/b] Imagine all of the dancing you've done in [b][i]Destiny.[/i][/b] All the times you've waved at someone you quick scoped. All the times you've had an [b][i]ether chest[/i][/b] pointed out to you. All the times you've sat on your friends ghost [b][i]after you pushed him off the cliff in VoG.[/i][/b] After I thought about this, and remembered all of those glorious moments, I came to the conclusion [b][i]that now I need 20 tacos.[/i][/b] The new emotes [b][i]do[/i][/b] seem worth [b][i]20 tacos,[/i][/b] and so does 20 tacos. The only logical thing I can do now, [b][i]is buy the new emotes, and 20 tacos.[/i][/b] [b]TTK[/b] will certainly be better while eating the tacos [b][i]and[/i][/b] dancing in the tower. It'd be nice if Bungie could give us a taco emote, shader, and class item, though. I would [b]THROW TACOS AT MY SCREEN [i]FOR THE TAKEN TACO COLLECTORS EDITION. [/i][/b] Something you should bring to the marketing team, Cozmo. [b]Don't let other people tell you how to spend your tacos.[/b] If new emotes are worth their weight in tortilla, [b][i]go for it![/i][/b] If they aren't, [i]more tacos to ya.[/i] [spoiler]This post was inspired by my being at Taco Bell right now and some other post belittling people that bought the CE.[/spoiler]

  • Ok here are my two cents on the matter, Let me start off by saying that I make way more money than any average household. Also, this means that I earn my money and it has cost sweat and lots of efforts. Now by saying that I'm gratefully wealthy doesn't mean I'm going to he stupid and waste money on things that are overpriced. If you own TDB and HoW DLCs than you literally only need to spend $40. Now in order to get the new emotes and shaders you have to pay an extra $40...that's just a rip off. I rather pay $50 on one night at the movies than $40 on some dumb dance emotes! Don't get me wrong I'm the type of person that I would pay anything for my entertainment no matter the price but you must have common sense too. I can easily say it's worth paying $40 for TTK because it brings new maps, patrols, Raid, Strikes and other new things. Now that's worth spending $40. But how in hell does some emotes suddenly cost $40 which is the same price as the TTK DLC? That's beyond me. It's not that I can't pay $40, it's the fact that Bungie or Activision are being greedy! Some people are just blind or their money doesn't cost nothing to earn and they careless how much companies price their products. Then again I do understand it's each individual's money and they can do whatever they want with their money, I'm not judging precisely people who want to buy emotes for $40. All I'm saying is that this matter is not about money it's about the direction certain companies take in order to make money from literally nothing. BTW, I bought the $40 edition TTK since I'm not wasting another $40 on literally nothing, like emotes. Emotes should've been included to be more honest. Now if they would offer more extra content like maps or strikes or Raids apart from the ones we're getting from TTK regular edition...than for sure I would through money at my screen no matter the price. And that's all I have to say about this matter.
