I've been playing Destiny since the day it came out. Didn't hear about it till one of my bosses told me about it, I work at Target so it was right in front of me when I was working. Pick up a copy and have been playing it non stop, though I do play extremely less when the content has been out for a while or when an update like "House of Wolves" and the "April Update" comes and makes the game extremely easy to get everything. [b]Nevertheless I still love this amazing game.[/b]
Anyways I made this thread because there is a spot in my room where I just keep stuff a like, I mean stuff I really love, some is games, some is music, and some is souvenirs that mean something to me. Then I notice how much of that stuff is destiny, a lot of it then I was wondering how much money I spend on Destiny so I started thinking.
[u]Money spent on everything involving Destiny[/u] :
Destiny - $ 54.37
Dark Below + House of Wolves - $ 34.99
Destiny The Taken King (Digital Download) - $ 39.99
Destiny The Taken King Collectors Edition - $ 98.04
Taken King PS4 - $ 362.51
Silver (total amount) - $ 259.93
-*Note*This silver was bought of a course of nine months
-$20 for the orginal emotes
-$40 for the Festival of Lost event and emotes
-$50 on SRL and emotes
-$150 on all 3 sets of Desolate gear, should't have been this much but I was being stupid and opened chest on my Warlock to try to get the Titan and Hunter set.
Bungie Store (total amount) - $154.18
Destiny Rise of Iron - $29.99
Bungie's Twitch Channel - $15.00
[b]Total Amount - $1,049.00[/b]
After I did that math I was so shocked, never thought I end up spending that much on a game and stuff that relates to that game. Then I started looking at how much time I play destiny on wastedondestiny.com . Not sure if it adds time afk in the tower, or time afk in orbit in all of it.
[b]Total time spent playing Destiny - 1,744 hours, that is 10 weeks 2 days 16 hours 45 minutes and 22 seconds.[/b]
I love this game, it is my second favorite game of all time, first is Tales of Symphonia as seen in the picture. But I do have some interesting stories for Destiny. When TTK dropped and I had class I made sure I woke up at 4am and played for 3 hours before I had to head out for class. When Kings Fall came out, I had to work from 6am to 2:30 but my boss let me come in from 4:am to 12:30 so I can go home and play the raid right when it came out.
Played this game with friends/family/co-workers and so many random people online. Made lots of new friends through LFG and from forums and some enemies arguing. Its just been like any other MMO I've played in the past, very time consuming and got to love the grind with friends, get mad when I don't get something I want then it extremely happy when you finally get what I've been hunting for.
[b]I really do love this game, but am I too obsessed with it? How much money have you guys spent on Destiny, also how much time?[/b]

Edited by Supared: 6/19/2016 8:54:39 PM$1049 1744 hours My policy is that for every dollar I pay I should get 1 hour of enjoyment at least, and going by my policy, you're still in the green. But dude...woah.
-
Ps4 doesn't count. Purchases of silver is a bit much too imo.
-
A little offtopic but tales of symphonia tho... great f'ing game..
-
The amount of hours I've spent with friends playing this game, I could have spent double that and it would still be worth the entertainment value!!
-
People have paid much more for just a sliver of the happiness and memories created!
-
Damn. All I've bought was the Y1 season pass, 35€.
-
My costs are as follows: Destiny vanguard edition - £45 Season pass - £30 Destiny Ghost Edition - £100 Taken King collectors edition - £80 Taken King legendary edition - £0 (gifted) Rise of Iron - £30 Nepal aid shirt - £?? Don't remember but it doesn't count as it's charity. Total: £285 Time spent so far: 1300 hours of gameplay Worth every penny

Edited by MHB-2-Legit: 6/19/2016 5:50:49 PMI don't see an issue, considering the value you received for your dollar is still strong. I will assume this is all disposable income, and you don't have a hungry baby missing meals so you could get a Suros hoodie. Only thing I have an issue with is buying the Taken King TWICE. That $40 you blew could have gone towards plushy engrams.
-
If it makes you happy, and you still take care of yourself and your obligations, it's ok to be obsessed.
-
Yes. That's unhealthy..
-
Edited by Tea Are Ohh Why: 6/19/2016 3:56:25 PMI'm not sure if you're obsessed but I'm positive that you're stupid. Why would you buy 3 versions of Taken King?
-
Dude, I've spent more than you. However, you can't count buying a goddamn console as money spent on Destiny.
-
How much? Damn, i was pissed when i had to re buy the taken king when i upgraded to xbox one from xbox 360,
-
Its interactive entertainment. You need to compair Xbox games with something like Foxtell or Netflix to really compair any interactive entertainment. Its not a obsession Xbox anything is a way of life.
-
You should be on "My strange addiction"
-
I bought a shirt when the earthquake in Nepal happened. I think it was $30. I'm wearing it now but that's less of a coincidence and more about being a college student who's definitely not majoring in personal hygiene. Also I bought the game.
-
its not like your gonna use every emote...wth
-
All that time and money but you how much of it you spent playing with us.... Huh James. My feelings are hurt
-
Pfft that's nothing. I've spent over $5000 on online currency for the MMO I sometimes play. Not struggling financially, pay my bills on time, etc. Just do what you want with your money.
-
$259.93 on silver ? [spoiler]wow[/spoiler]
-
If youre paying your bills, ebjoying time with friends and maybe a significant other, and still have money and arent broke, WHO CARES. Enjoy something you like and be happy man. You do you. Dont let a bunch of kids who post wortwortwort tell you what to do with your life.
