The reveal stream brought a lot of exciting stuff. However... there is 1 eyesore that is just terrible.

The new expansion is $40. If that pisses you off to high hell then this other news will REALLY be shocking...

They are adding an "Annual Pass" to the game. What does this mean? Well.. for the low cost of $35 (that price is seperate from the expansion), you can get more premium content throughout the year. You can also pay $70 for the bundle of the expansion and the annual pass. Here is the official description of the pass:

Alongside seasonal updates and live events available to every Destiny 2 player, Forsaken Annual Pass provides bonus rewards and introduces three premium content releases (anticipated in Winter 2018, Spring 2019, and Summer 2019). Each release delivers new experiences to Destiny 2: Forsaken, including activities, end game content, and an arsenal of powerful weapons, armor, and gear to earn. The Destiny 2: Forsaken Annual Pass content and rewards will be delivered between launch of Destiny 2: Forsaken and August 31, 2019.

Yea... WAY TO FUCK UP AGAIN BUNGIE! Why isn't that content ALREADY with the expansion?! What happen to the updates that were free?! You can't add a Fortnite type of battle pass into your game when the GAME ISN'T FREE TO PLAY!

Jesus!

honestly i really enjoy the gameplay of destiny 2 but im sick of the nickel and diming in the game. so far i bought the $60 base game, two $20 expansions, and still it feels like the content is really lacking, there's an in-game cash shop that feels very forced, and now all the big new updates are behind a $40 paywall?

fuck that, for $140 i could buy a ton of other games that will deliver a whole lot more value than destiny 2

Destiny 2 is a fucking joke and i liked the base game. First two expansions were half assed trash that could be beaten in an hour, they have some huge balls to ask $70 for more garbage content. Fuck off bungie, Ill play free fortnite like everyone else i guess

There's so many games that are like, full fledged games that don't pull this crap. I just avoiding supporting these kind of anti-consumer practices. In the past year tho, we've had like Persona 5, God of War, Horizon, Monster Hunter, Mario Oddyssey, etc which are like all full fledged games in their own right, that either have non-shit (or at the very least, non-intrusive)DLC, free updates, etc. Plenty of games do get it right.


One of the other reasons is the fact that I don't want to buy that many games any more, lol

This is why I find it so laughable when people defend Destiny/Bungie. Mediocre DLCs that were obviously just cut content from the base game, and then having to wait a year for an expensive ass expansion that's supposed to be oh my God the best update ever!

It's such a shitty business model. Meanwhile you have a free to play game like Warframe that churns out constant updates and content for free and it's actually quite easy to grind for the in-game premium currency.

It's not Blizzard anymore. It's Blizzard-Activision. Getting mad about this is silly when Blizzard entered a partnership with Activision

CoD is listed as a non Blizzard game in the launcher. It's in a very segregated area.

Everyone complaining about this has never played an mmo or has no job


First off... Destiny is BARELY a MMO. Second, what MMO charges $60 for the base game, charges for every expansion, charges a $35 annual pass and puts a bunch of content in a paid lootbox system?

Not some of these things... ALL of them. Give me a game. Also, have it be done in less than a year.

WoW charges $12 a -month- but has no lootboxes.

Guild Wars 2 also has the same pricing model but just doesn't release expansions as often.

Bungie/Destiny is dead to me now. I honestly don't know how you fuck up this badly.

Loved the first game, played the shit out of it with friends. I don't know how you can make a sequel that pales in comparison with its predecessor in pretty much every way possible. You pay top dollar for the main game and subsequent DLCs to get maybe 20% of the content and then they just nickle and dime you the rest. Content is paywall'd behind a paywall that's behind another paywall.

I made the mistake of pre-ordering the game with the season pass because I thought it'd be more of the same of what I loved with Destiny 1 but better. Nope. Completely quit playing after I found there was no end game. Logged in to play each expansion since I'd already paid for them. Those were a fairly mediocre two hours. Uninstalled the game after the last one. I won't fall for this shit again, D3 doesn't even exist to me.

Sad that people will gladly continue to support these shitty practices.

I thought people would have learned after the first Destiny not to buy the game until the very end when all the content is out. Like really whats the point of paying that much only to have all the shit you did get reset.

1) content in the loot box is all cosmetic
2) theyve had annual passes every year. They were just called season passes before and you got all the DLC in the coming year for it (normally 2, 1 in December and 1 in April/May).

This. Its clearly whAcktivi$ion. EA, Activi$ion, Ubisoftthese 3 are the worst, and they dont give a fuck at all.

Just wait until the new Call of Duty Battle Royale comes out. Guarantee its going to be a loot-box, battlepass infested cash grab. Instead of having special guns though, this time around everything will be cosmetic, and probably half the fan-base wont even know that until theyve spent an extra 40-50 bucks on loot boxes.
