The new Destiny DLC has been announced, named The Taken King. This will release in September of this year, and PS4 will recieve exclusive content once more.
Destiny has made over $160 million in MTX revenue, and these numbers only account the data from late 2017 to early 2019.
That's extremely low for microtransactions, especially for a game that's essentially designed around it
This was back when the game wasn't free to play.
The figures are from November 2017 to February 2019 (1 year and 4 months).
Based on that projection, the MTX revenue for Destiny 2 likely would have been closer to ~$240m for 2 years.
Not sure if premium expansions are included in that figure either although ... I'd hope that they are though and that most of the revenue was for actual content like Forsaken.
People spend way too much money on cosmetics.
Seasons($10 and just got bumped to $12) and dungeon keys($10 each, two a year) are through the eververse(micro transaction) store.
So for those two years, in order to play a season, you would pay through micro transactions.
Bungie Marathon will be worse since it's designed around it as well
It makes me sad to agree... but at the same time I am looking forward to giving it a go. Destiny 2 is so far in, I find it difficult to figure out what I am meant to do first.
Let's compare something similar. Apex Legends and its ridiculous $18/$40 skins make EA a billion each year.
For as much as ppl complain how much they hate microtransactions, they sure don’t act like it. No wonder they aren’t going anywhere.
By "people" you're referring to millions and millions of people. Obviously the ones complaining aren't necessarily the same as the ones spending all that money.

In Episode 1 of Spot On, a new weekly news show, Gamespot talks about the dangers of chasing a trend.
Playing Destiny 1 on PC has been something fans have been requesting for years. It looks like Destiny 1 is now playable on PC via the RPCS3 emulator.
too late, as was House of Wolves
the repetition and grind to get everything was too much and was an insult/slap to the face when Xur literally sold every exotic before the DLC released.
So why put ALL that time into it when I can just pick up at some later date, buy my stuff, and not miss a beat?
I feel like all the work I put in was for nothing, and with all the weapon changes it's just stupid how it's tied to all the cruciBabies
How much money in total I have to spend on this game so far including this DLC?
Still haven't got his Gjallarhorn yet? LOLLLLL
Love this game.
I want to go back to this game but I just can't....I fired up house of wolves for about 20 minutes and then immediately went back to Witcher 3....I'm guessing $35 for this expansion.
