I was really excited to learn that cross save was coming to destiny 2, however, I immediately became depressed when I realized that there are two types of cross saving. 1. you choose an account you want to use as cross saving (meaning if I have an account on Xbox, which I do, and an account on pc, which I also do, then I have to choose between the 2), or 2. all of your accounts are merged, which is of course the preferable option, but apparently is confirmed as not being the case. That makes me extremely upset seeing as though I recently bought destiny 2 on battle.net, paid $100 for it.
However, since I've been playing on Xbox for over 5 years, I would of course want that account to be my cross save. But, that character isn't as far as my pc character, but that character has more exotics, more emotes, more stats. So I would want to use my Xbox characters as my main, but also would like to move my pc characters' inventories over to them, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I don't have the annual pass on Xbox, but I do on pc. However, because I'm not going to use my pc characters going forward, why should I put any time into them at all? I essentially just wasted $100, which, as any sane person would think, is absolutely awesome. People love wasting money, so this just absolutely brings a smile to my face (that was obvious sarcasm). Makes me really upset, especially since I liked everything else in the vidoc. I probably will just be taking a really sad break from destiny for a couple months until cross save comes out, but I certainly won't be happy.
I only made this post so that [b]hopefully[/b] some Bungie execs see this and add a tool of some kind that at least allows items to be transferred over accounts. Because, in the bottom line, merging accounts hurts [b][i]literally no one.[/i][/b]
TL;DR I paid $100 for destiny 2 on pc, however, because I have destiny 2 on Xbox and have been using that character for over 5 years, I'm not going to use my pc characters for cross play because you can't merge accounts, meaning I wasted $100 on destiny 2 for pc and would love to see a tool of some kind to either merge said accounts, or bring items over from one account onto the other.

Edited by TheArtist: 6/7/2019 10:40:32 PMThat's not going to happen. Too many ways to game the system. Just pick your favorite characters...and then play on your favorite platform. You have to OWN the game in order ttake advantage of cross-save any way. So you didn't waste money. You only "wasted" time leveling up characters you won't end up using. ...and if you had fun playing, it wasn't a waste. ...and if you didn't have fun...well then I think you need to do some soul-searching. Personally, I'm looking forward to my PS4 characters getting to play on PC.
