Why Bungie doesn't use Fan Art.

I've read it all.

So if you've observed the community creations for Destiny, you would see amazing fan art that would be great ideas for future content, from exotics weapons to ghost shells. Let's face it, majority of the current content skins in the game, for example the new dead orbit theme with the camo skin makes the weapon look a fraction of their worth. As if there's one designer for each of the factions creating the designs that they absolutely love! However the rest of us have to suffer through it as we do not agree with the design. [b][u]Business image: [/u][/b] You think it would look good for the company that majority of their content is fan art, investors are scratching their heads of wondering to where their money is going, aswell as their greed to jump on the idea to save a lot of money for profit. Designers will be paid less or job termination, since it would save the company a lot of money with the fan art. [b][u]Community outrage:[/u][/b] It would be amazing if some of the fan art were to be implemented into the game, however even if they choose one or two fan to be implemented into the game, artist out there would get upset that their art did not get choose. Suddenly it's become a competitive competition to see who gets their art into the game. [b][u]Time:[/u][/b] Bungie only releases major updates probably every 3 months. Spending their time on future content to patching up imbalances in the game. With the fan art, the model will have to be designed, new sound to be recorded. Adjusting the balancing aswell as making new space and bug fixing just to put a new weapon into the games [b][u]Future content:[/u][/b] This is more about, the new fan art. It's great that people make fan art with fantastic designs. However, designers would have to come up with creative designs as more fan art is produce. Meaning they can't copy or make their cheap version of someone else's design. So the more amazing art there is.. The more limited the designers are for future content. Aswell as the trademarks designs out there that they're already worrying about.
