If This Community Can Pull Off "removeeverpurse" We Can Pull Off "Boycott Destiny Friday"

All bungie gives us is the same old "[b]we'll talk more later[/b]" line, despite the fact that the forums have been burning for some time now. What will make them listen? Our complaints? Obviously not. If eververse proves one thing it is that money is the only language that bungie understands. If those of you who support #removeeverpurse really want to send a message, then pick a day (for example Friday) and everyone who still plays agree not to play on that day. We spread the word before that day across the forums, across reddit. We convince our friends/clan mates who play to play something else that day. We do this, [i]every week[/i]. If bungie doesn't notice our presence they will certainly notice our absence. What do you say? Boycott Destiny Friday anyone? Lets send bungie a message through action... [b]BOYCOTT DESTINY FRIDAY!!![/b] [b]***Comment [i]#boycottdestinyfriday[/i] Below!!!***[/b]

  • Then you better not play a game made by EA, 343, Ubisoft, Blizzard, 2K, Bethesda, Bioware, Capcom, etc. On Fridays. Considering there is literally nothing obtained from Eververse that will give you any advantage over another player. Everything (except for a limited time event) can be obtained by literally just playing the game. Literally everything that you do gives you experience towards Bright Engrams. Everything in Eververse is purely cosmetic. Now, let's look at the examples that I gave: EA: Madden 2018 [spoiler]https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/691088-xbox-one/75710237[/spoiler] In order to obtain the max ranking for your team you are required to purchase cards. There is no other way to obtain said cards. 343: Halo 5 The only "endgame" items to obtain in halo 5 are purely cosmetic armor, and weapons for one time use in Warzone. Both obtained with req packs. Which can be purchased. This allows anyone the ability to literally purchase every unlockable item in the game... Ubisoft: Assassin's Creed Origins [spoiler]https://gamerant.com/assassins-creed-loot-boxes/[/spoiler] Has both loot boxes, and items that can literally only be obtained with real money. Blizzard: World Of Warcraft [spoiler]https://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20420212723[/spoiler] You purchase the game, pay a monthly subscription, and there are still items only obtainable by using real money. 2K: NBA2K18 [quote]https://www.google.com/amp/s/kotaku.com/nba-2k18-is-riddled-with-microtransactions-1818554307/amp[/quote] Literally pay to win. Bethesda: skyrim /fallout 4 / quake [spoiler]https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/general-discussion/M0aV9hAi-bethesda-went-from-one-of-my-fave-game-studios-to-my-most-despised-now[/spoiler] Reducing the capability of modders, and also now charging for mods. Also, quake has skins that are only unlockable via money purchases. Bioware: Mass Effect [spoiler]https://www.google.com/amp/www.eurogamer.net/amp/2017-10-23-manveer-heir-bioware-mass-effect-ea-monetisation [/spoiler] In the article it explains that someone spent literally 15,000,000 on microtransactions. Need I say more? Capcom: Street Fighter [spoiler]https://www.google.com/amp/s/venturebeat.com/2011/03/17/capcom-and-the-abuse-of-customer-loyalty-dlc/amp/[/spoiler] Charge money for costumes. Those costumes are not unlock able in the game any other way (like destiny Eververse items are). I also believe in the new one it costs money to unlock characters as well. (but this I do not know 100 percent) As you can see, every developer I previously listed has microtransactions for games that you need to initially purchase to begin with, that are locked behind a "pay wall". Some even make it a requirement in order to max level (Madden). Not all purely cosmetic like Destiny either. Halo 5 offers its entire endgame for purchase. So be sure to boycott those companies as well.
