There are many reasons why. Lol. They are practically giving this away.This fell a lot faster than I thought
Don't you dare say it, the fanboys might get mad!There are many reasons why. Lol. They are practically giving this away.
Yes. Physical PC copy just has a cardboard disc in the disc tray of the case with a code on it. Redeemable on the Blizzard PC client. Seems pointless, but I was thankful this existed so I could take advantage of the GCU discount when I bought it at release.Think the PC version just has a code in it?
With good reason after all the controversies.This game is tanking big time. It’s dying
I am enjoying this game way more than the first one. On my tv this game looks amazing and I am not a graphics hound like that but for me it hammered home how good a game can look on a 4k tv.This plus the expansion pass for 53.38 total seems like deal of year to me. While I agree with the poor reception of the end game, I also think you'll get so many hours of enjoyment out of it, especially if you're just coming into this franchise. I've put a lot of time into this game on Xbox and PC and plan on putting many more into it.
lots of these premium games hellbent on dlc and microtransactions know that theyre basically a freemium game wherein their money comes after buying the vanilla copy. And after all the negative press $20 seems like a no brainer for Activision.This fell a lot faster than I thought
My new LG 4k has this default "Standard" mode that basically pre processes frames in a way that makes every single game appear to be unlocked/60 fps. However, for games that run at a locked 30 like Destiny, it comes at the cost of input lag. So for shooters and the like, I have to put it into game mode to get a 30fps an next to nothing 19 ms lag. Even then, it looks incredible with HDR and checkerboard "4k" rendering.I am enjoying this game way more than the first one.

That sucks, guess you’ll have to return it to your nearest BBY once you receive it.Bought this then immediately regretted. Tried to cancel but it’s already processing.
They’re great games but EA and Activision are getting too greedy and the gaming community is fighting back.This has been a great year for gaming for me. I’m loving Destiny 2 and Battlefront 2! And it’s entertaining watching all the haters!
Just refuse delivery.Bought this then immediately regretted. Tried to cancel but it’s already processing.
PC or console? If console..which?I bought the pro on sale recently and it came with Destiny 2 + all DLC. I wanted to sell it but no one wants it. Tried selling it online for the same price as the base game has been for sale and still no one wants it. I think at this point id have a hard time giving it away. I may as well give it to my son (10) and maybe he'll get something out of it.
I don’t mind the fighting back against greedy companies, don’t buy the microtransactions. That’s a big thumbs up in my book. However, all of the horrible reviews and whining about the made up quality of the games just makes me laugh. I think we’re going about it the wrong way.They’re great games but EA and Activision are getting too greedy and the gaming community is fighting back.
I don’t get this guys crying about not being able to earn every free item for a special event. Isn’t it like this for most games that have special unlocks? Aren’t most of these unlocks cosmetic?
It's just the latest in a long line of controversies and problems plaguing Destiny 2.I don’t get this guys crying about not being able to earn every free item for a special event. Isn’t it like this for most games that have special unlocks? Aren’t most of these unlocks cosmetic?
They charge you MMO prices (with the expansions) without giving you MMO features.It's just the latest in a long line of controversies and problems plaguing Destiny 2.
During most "Special Events" the diligent can earn most, if not all the bonus items. Destiny 2 however is account bound, and limited to a weekly cap unlike something like WoW or Overwatch, and etc.
It's specifically set up so that if you want to earn all the items... you'll need to open your wallet
Even if it is "Just Cosmetic" it still affects the game, since it affects yours and many other player's enjoyments and creates a player base of haves and have-nots.
The other controversies include secretly throttling your XP, while telling you you're still earning the full rate to try and get you to buy more Microtransactions.
Once the XP controversy was exposed, they took out the throttling.. only to secretly double the XP required to level and progress.
Selling DLC/MT items to increase the drop rate of rare and epic items, only to find out the item was broken/doesn't work... then saying they'll look into and fix the issue AFTER the Holidays.
Blocking old content behind a Expansion Pay-wall. The content you used to be able to play, along with a handful of achievements were gated behind a pay wall when the expansion was recently released (2months after the game), and the only to get access to this content/achievements was to buy the expansion... once again people kicked up a fuss and they are looking into fixing it (I am not sure if they have fixed it yet or not)
Every time they are caught, the community cause an uproar and Bungie releases an almost verbatum apology letter saying it's not what they planned to do, they're sorry, they'll fix it, won't happen again.. then another controversy crops up.
I am curious as to what you mean by MMO Features?They charge you MMO prices (with the expansions) without giving you MMO features.
Social features that are standard in MMO games such as lack of clan features (besides sharing rewards) - clan chat, text chat, and not knowing where your party members are on the map. Also not a big fan of being locked out of Trials, Raid/Strikes on heroic if you didn't buy an expansion. I know that they did this for Destiny 1, but MMOs usually don't do this. Expansions without any substance that are basically reused maps with bosses that look a lot like bosses from Destiny 1. I'm also aware that Bungie has said that Destiny is not a MMO, but by the way they are making these expansions available for purchase during pre-order and release date, they sure do charge it like one.I am curious as to what you mean by MMO Features?
(This coming from a long, long time MMO player.... god I wasted to much of my life on MMOs)
What do you want for it?I bought the pro on sale recently and it came with Destiny 2 + all DLC. I wanted to sell it but no one wants it. Tried selling it online for the same price as the base game has been for sale and still no one wants it. I think at this point id have a hard time giving it away.

People are weird that way, as it seems to me if people CAN'T get every free item for a special event, it makes the special event items more rare and more special. Granted, this will rub the completionist type of gamer the wrong way.... which I expect also has a very high overlap with the poopsocker sort of player, which is a type of player Destiny 2 already ran into trouble with.I don’t get this guys crying about not being able to earn every free item for a special event.

So very true, they push the "Shared World" and "Social" aspect of the game, but never allow you to be social.Social features that are standard in MMO games such as lack of clan features (besides sharing rewards) - clan chat, text chat, and not knowing where your party members are on the map.

From what I’ve gathered is they put a level cap at 20 and removed stuff that was accessible before and people left in drovesit's like buying a printer for cheap, but then they get you with the ink prices (microtransactions)
I heard the latest expansion DLC was a complete turd, and there was a mass exodus after that
they must be scramblin' to keep people from jumping ship
