The Ace of Spades is a level 40 exotic hand cannon that only Hunters can wield. However, players won’t be finding this item through luck of the drop. That means no exotic farming will allow this beauty to become part of your ass-kicking arsenal. It should also be noted that this could end up taking some time to unlock, based on some form of dumb luck.
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.
Getting this tomorrow. Can't wait.
Side item: If you saved you old legendaries, they will count towards the dismantle portion of the quest. The 100 kills with telemetry is pretty easy. Just do patrol on the Dreadnaught. Done in almost no time just in that starter area since Hive and Cabal are endless. Start up some events if you have em, get some other rewards.
i dont know if its just me, but bungie has really turned destiny around with this expansion, just seems like everytime i look on n4g or destiny forums, there a new exotic to be discovered doing x amount things with certain requirements, like the exclusive exotic for each class or only obtaining certain items from strikes and such. granted like everyone says "this is the way destiny should have been" but like we hope mosts devs will do is learn from there mistakes.
at least so far, i have not ran out of things to do, and im still rocking only my first toon.
I was originally mixed on getting Taken King but I am so glad that I did now. This is now totally a great game. Much more to do now. The new sub-classes are freaking dope (love Force Lightning on my Warlock) And the exotic weapons that people keep coming up with make it more exciting to keep playing! Bungie I think you gained a ton of respect from me with this expansion. I may actually be looking towards the next big thing this game gives us.
