n an old trailer for Destiny, we saw different area’s on the moon that show off boss battles, crazy hives, and tons of fallen and hive creatures. Most people don’t think that this area was included in the Mission that we have access to in the beta, however if you look around enough it is possible to find a giant explorable area which seems to be the same as the one from the “The Moon” trailer released back in October.
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.
I got all the way down there also... Dead end and nothing worth the time for doing it. They need to add some bosses and fat loot.
If what what it the point of exploring and killing waves after waves?
The whole point of the moon mission was for the mission. Just like on earth you can go do the mission, but if you want you can explore the rest of earth and not do the mission. Just because they didn't have some crazy boss fight at the end of the tunnel or some loot doesn't mean they won't have it in full game, this is the beta after all. Heck, you don't even know if that's the true end on the tunnel. When got to find out today just how bog this game is gonna be in size. If the moon is this bigggggg just think of what mars, Saturn, Venus, or freaking Jupiter is gonna be....

Heres my vid, not so impressive but pretty cool
Actually he didn't went all the way down, in the end of the road there's this huge door at center and a different huge boss appears, still it was pretty easy, I thought I would get something special if I beat it, but I didn't get nothing.
