Eurogamer: I'm not going to mention them again. I can't get them.

Luke Smith: But you can if you buy the Collector's Edition.

Eurogamer: I'm not going to buy the game and the two DLCs all over again.

Luke Smith: Okay, but first I want to poke at you on this a little bit.

Eurogamer: Poke at me?

Luke Smith: You're feeling anxious because you want this exclusive content but you don't know yet how much you want it. The notion of spending this money is making you anxious, I can see it -

Eurogamer: I do want them. I would buy them -

Luke Smith: If I fired up a video right now and showed you the emotes you would throw money at the screen.

Eurogamer: What I'm saying is that fan frustration is not because they don't understand the proposition. It comes regardless of how cool the exclusive content is. The frustration - and mine as a fan - is that the method of acquiring it requires me to re-buy content I bought a year ago.

Luke Smith: [Long pause] It's about value. The player's assessment of the value of the content.

So this is pretty solid proof that Bungie is entirely disconnected from their fanbase. For fans that have played from the start, and want all current content, they're expected to have paid a total of $180 + tax ($60 base, $20x2 DLC, $80 collector's edition expansion). And if you're British, convert that shit to pounds while you cry into your tea and biscuits.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
So... what you're telling me is that I can get the base game, all the DLC, and the new expansion on disc for only like, 55 bongdolars?


If I was a person who had Destiny from the start I'd be kinda pissed about that.

Buying Destiny was my second worst decision of 2014. I won't be making that mistake again, especially with this fishy milking bullshit we're seeing right here.

Arkham Knight to last me the summer, The Phantom Pain to last me forever. Fuck Bungie. At least their community is getting somewhat smarter.

Bungie died a while ago.

Same for me, but for a lot of people Bungie is still alive.

It's sad really.

It's also important to remember the temporal valuation of content. If you played during The Dark Below, you were playing when there were Swordbearers everywhere. That's now gone and you can't recapture that now. Some things are being left behind as we move forward. It's the same with House of Wolves, right now, with the Fallen showing up all over the solar system. Those things are going to be less relevant as we move forward and the Taken are everywhere.

We don't have a way to go back in time and experience those things again. So the players who were there can say 'I was here when...' and 'I did it when it was new'
ah, so that's the value of $80... random, boring "public events". decent early PvP and terrible patch after terrible patch.

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
On a related note...

Would this be a good time for a recruitment drive...?

Tomorrow, if someone hasn't already done it.

"Ornate chandeliers suspended from a vaulted ceiling lit the spacious chamber; Jack tilted his gaze overhead and noticed how far away they were.  His thoughts wove around those bright lights, like a dance of ether masses spiraling in precious unison. Why must we try to clutch desperately for the mere threads of this world when we can clasp onto a tapestry of untold magnificence beyond this plane of existence?"

Eurogamer: Well, yeah. I would rather do that - pay a few pounds or dollars or whatever - than spend money on things I already own.

Luke Smith: [Laughs] Well, we have nothing more to talk about regarding your opportunity to spend extra money in Destiny, other than The Taken King and the three versions we've announced.

Luke Smith: Rather than comment on the Bungie philosophy, here's what I'll tell you. If someone made a golf clap emote, I would spend money on that. Like when someone falls in the Vault of Glass. At the moment I bow when I'm trying to mess with them. So... I empathise with some of the things you're saying.

Eurogamer: I feel like you should put some of these things that you are empathising with into practice.
That's one of the most blatant burns I've seen from Eurogamer.  Tom Phillips seems genuinely pissed.
