Remember when the kids who supported Destiny said that micro transactions...

would help fund dlc? That was such a funny fucking joke.

Remember when 343 said microtransactions would fund new content being added to the game? That was such a funny fucking joke.

Remember when people said Knack wouldn't topple Crazy Taxi for the title of GOAT? That was such a reasonable statement at the time.

Remember the Halo 5 point of view trailers which were making the conflict between Locke and the Chief a major deal? That was such a funny fucking joke.

Bungie never said it would go to funding new dlc. It was just started by fans, so no.

Actually, I don't remember that at all. To my knowledge, they only claimed the microtransactions would be used to help support the HWC.

Come to think of it, you're completely right. 343 never actually said the microtransactions were going toward the maps and DLC. They announced the free maps first, then later the news about the Req system dropped, and we all just kind of put 2 and 2 together ourselves that the maps being free justified micro-transactions.

It was also supposed to fund new "free" updates, because we aren't paying for new shit via a season pass.
