Feeling the Activiton in this solo Bungie event?

Please be civil about this as i feel this needs to be talked about but no hate towards devs or one another! <3 Right so Bad JuJu had a sense of urgency too it with the triumphs an was a resource sink, Very blatant and people denying it saying "do the bounties" when the counties were glitched to work effectively only on one character is insane! how that gets into the game i have no clue. But clearly it was meant to be preparation for this event, as everything has jumped in price along with no event engrams no bright dust, and the cosmetics are all locked behind a bright dust or silver paywall. This is implying the same marketing style Activition teaches and has taught for many years limit time events, real money fix for the lack of gameplay earned cosmetics aka people pay for engrams or direct purchases. This could have been fixed or done in good favor by adding in event engrams but making them rare, make them once every two levels, ect ect. I feel things like the bad juju ornaments are perfect for them making money as a solo developer! but to lock almost all the relevant event loot (even the glowing effects) behind a paywall after a resource sink is extremely obvious employing the more... manipulative methods the industry has been employing. Bungie, we have your back and support you, but this is not it! we wanted to away from them to show us you can be better. Employing the same methods that nearly killed Destiny as a franchise is very risky an i get you can test the waters as show keeps keeping you afloat but please take this into consideration for future events. As i said dont attack one another over this lets talk about this as feedback is crucial right now for Destiny! Cheers <3

  • Honestly my interpretation is a lot less.. cynical? The tribute hall was a place where players could "decorate" and collect golden status as a reminder of their accomplishments. Your goal was to complete the triumphs to obtain the status, that's why everything that made the hall feel more like home required resources and the golden status only ever touched bright dust. Bad Juju was, is, and shall be obtainable regardless of how much time you put into obtaining it. The only thing Bungie would have to gain from you wasting all your resources are complaints on the forums However the tribute hall never should have effected solstice of hero's, as I'm sure Bungie understood how few people would spend their most valuable currency (bright dust) on a ghost, sparrow, and a ship. You wasted your stuff for no reason other then to obtain a gun that would be waiting for you patently for years to come, you did it and so did I [spoiler]but yeah the prices are a little too high [/spoiler]
