Bungie’s site has been updated with a Destiny Q&A, revealing new artwork, pre-order incentives and an explanation about the awkward PlayStation 4 appearance.
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.
hahahahaha that picture just makes me laugh.
One guy has like no neck, one guy is just awkward body (marty lol), guy in the back really hates this galaxy, and the one on the right looks like a manikin.
Im glad that Bungie is releasing some exclusive DLC to the PS4 version of destiny. The game looks very interesting and it appears to be a Halo killer in my opinion.
The weird thing was how bad it looks compared to KZ4 or even that car game... they should have gone first and put KZ4 last.
I like the Halo series, but after 6 games It's history look tired. With Destinity a new universe will be created, new history, a new hero and you'll be able to explore tis new game with your friends, and the best is avalaible for PS4 with a new hardware I cant wait....
I am exited for this game, this will be one of the first game on my ps4
