Will Destiny’s £25 Boost Packs Tip the Balance of Fair Play?

Darren drags Antony out of his Star Wars spoiler proof bunker for another fun filled episode, in which the Sparks debate Destiny’s latest offering to their loyal gaming community and ask, have we finally reached the stage where microtransactions threaten to upset gameplay balance and if not, are we just one step away from the dreaded ‘Pay to Win’ scenario dividing ‘The Haves’ and the ‘Have Nots’ that lies in the Sparks worst nightmares?

If you can't make to level 25 in this game. you truly suck at playing games. I could fall and trip on level 25.

No doubt about it. This is such a waste of money. I started playing yesterday morning on the Xbox one. and I am now level 22 (XBL-BoodyBandit). Plus I took the time to do a hard raid, my racing bounties and 1 night fall on the PS4 with friends on the same day.

Between the story, bounties and crucibles? You can easily speed level to 25 in 2 to 3 days of casual gaming.

MikleDemi3075d ago

Pretty much.
Lol just doing the story will get you to the level cap.

Will not tip the balance of fair play. But it will cause a downstream affect that gamers will have to face. Bungie and activision is starting to push the envelope to see how far they can go with gamers. If these boosters do well, i cant imagine what bungie and activision will start charging.
I can predict that when bungie develop Destiny 2, their priorities wont be about "how can we give players a great experience" but it will be "where can we charge players?" mentality.

Well I bet you if this works and they make a lot of money they will do the same thing with high light levels but for even more money like max out light level for $50.

svoulis3075d ago

I dunno if anyone knows this but this is done in other games as well. It has more to do with people wanting to "jump in" to the new content and not grind their way to it. Although in the case of Destiny...its really not needed nor' does it change any of the games balance. I feel you lose out if you skip to 25, unless you've already done that and don't want to collect material/strange coin/weapon parts/ and faction rep.

Thats just my opinion though.

Paying for cheats is fair play now?

That is a fantastic interview. Physint is a love letter to the fans. What a legend.

I'm guessing OD will also be coming to PlayStation, as the trailer states for all players lol

RhinoGamer8898d ago

Love to know how much he works on a game. 10% effort --- 90% credit

F0XH0UND92298d ago

Ever see the credits of a Kojima game? The guy is a machine and does so much for his projects.

Trilithon98d ago

hes a decision maker. people don't always agree. but at least he has made a decision. imagine how many execs wanting the main characters outfit to have flowers cause their daughter likes flowers. this the power of being independent. only the real fans breathing down his neck

WelkinCole98d ago

I really really miss MSG. For me its not a PS gen if there is no MSG. So this news is a God send for me.
