[quote]games also cost 60 bucks back then...and guess what,they still do.money's got to come from somewhere.[/quote]
So things like...
Their store that has been selling items since D1 that a lot of it is backorders that people don't get their items until 5 months later?
Refer a friend
Boost packs, Doritos, Rockstar, etc...
Bundles up to almost $500
Streamers that help sell their game
The $100 million contract they have with the new IP
The Annual Pass, Battle passes
Edit: Expansions
Oh yeah, Eververse in D1
Did I leave anything out that Bungie "didn't make any money off of"?

They did not get 100% of the profits off of the sales of everything. They do now and I have no issue tossing money in to buy some cool stuff I like and want. I’m also supporting a studio I have been a big fan of for 18 years. Chill bud

You're right though, they weren't making 100% of the profits, now they are. Activision isnt a charity. They wouldnt of stuck with Bungie if they werent seeing some sort of significant profit. Now that cut goes to Bungie. So they are making more than they were with Activision. But instead of cutting back on micro transactions and monetization they ramped it up more. Instead of more content with better quality, we are getting more microtransactions and less quality. Bungie has changed from the games as a service model to maximum profit model under the excuse that they are an independent studio now. They arent a small studio trying to make a name for themselves. They are well established and trying to milk as much money as they can for the least amount of effort.

What gets me is there are how many new eververse items in total? Bet there isn't even half of that total in the entirety of shadowkeep.
