............aaaaaannnnnddddd here weeeeeee GO!😂this discussion has bin done countless times over these last 2 days... [spoiler]i know cause i just got oughta the same discussion in another post....i was the "i hate microtransactions" guy😂[/spoiler]

Well for a event Bungie advertised so heavily, there isn't much shit to do at all other than buy treasures. If this is the filler that is supposed to hold us for Destiny 2 I might as well stop playing and wait right now.

Not like you need anything that there is to pay for.
-
Then they shouldn't have hyped it so with the "Collect a new set of mask."
-
You can collect 3 new masks for free, the rest you pay for. You only got a few glues for masks last year as well.
-
So? The 3 masks you get aren't even new ones, they last years. That still doesn't excuse them advertising it like they did only for 90% of it to be locked behind a paywall
-
Edited by SpakulatorX: 10/26/2016 9:41:18 PMNo you get 3 lost treasures (one per quest, 3 characters) each one unlocks one of the masks. Last your you got 3 paper glues, so only got 3 masks for free. No difference really, except this year they give you 6 old masks for free as well. Total of 9 masks this year, 6 old ones and 3 new ones. Not to mention your crying about masks you will hardly ever use again.
-
Half of the "new" ones are from last year.

Edited by Spicy HOT Sploog: 10/26/2016 9:57:34 PMI don't give two shits about the masks I want the sparrow, too bad that's also locked behind a paywall though. Desticle harder though btw Oh and also, the new chests don't even guarantee new masks, you can get old ones so the "3 new guaranteed masks" is still wrong.
-
All I hear is crying about shit that doesn't matter
-
It does matter though because this is the way Bungie will continue to introduce "new" content. That is a pretty huge issue.
-
All I hear is you taking the high road, and pretending this shit don't bother you in the slightest. No you don't care about any new gun shades or ghosts, or that micro transactions have taken over destiny, 😂don't make me laugh guardian, climb down off your preacher stand.
-
This.
-
Well said, I'm stealing that
-
I've got a job, i enjoy collecting and buying stuff. Maybe you'll try it one day.
-
I'm not against them making it so we buy in-game stuff. I'm against the fact that you have to buy boxes to get the ghost and sparrow though ( or basically anything in general for FOTL ), and I would much prefer an alternative ( even if it's difficult ) route to getting a box then having to pay. [spoiler][quote]That Guy[/quote][/spoiler]
-
There's a quest to get a box. Do it on all 3 characters and get 3 :)
-
Let's be fair mate, three boxes and with the RNG system we have. [spoiler][quote]That Guy[/quote][/spoiler]
-
I got the ghost ghost in my 3rd box and sparrow in my second
-
You are one lucky guy. Gonna probably get three duplicates probably. [spoiler][quote]That Guy[/quote][/spoiler]
-
Yeah I honestly don't care about the masks but I got all of them except the fire wolf. That was with 20 dollars. Honestly with that many boxes (I think around 11) you're bound to get a ghost or sparrow or both.
-
You should spend your money how you chose. And I have purchased silver too. But let's be completely honest here and not kid ourselves. You just paid 2/3 of the price of the entire DLC and you STILL didn't get the cosmetic items you wanted. The pay for system sucks and disenfranchises both limited funds players and people who want to play the game to earn new content. The ONLY viable argument for microtransactions was that it would make life easier for limited time players who could save time and in the process create funds for more events for the entire community. That was the argument. And exactly that argument was the reason we all accepted it. Even though we warned that it was a slippery slope. That warning is rapidly a reality...and the only argument in favor of microtransactions turns out to be a blatant lie.
-
Might spend a few dollars myself, I'm not sure. Enjoy the rest of the Festival of the Lost and have a good day. [spoiler][quote]That Guy[/quote][/spoiler]

I'm not spending money and masks I won't ever use again in two weeks
