Destiny Limited Edition back in stock for Playstation 4, Xbox One, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. Destiny Ghost Edition is available too for Xbox 360.
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.
Thank the Jesus! I just ordered my gf another limited edition. Best Buy cancelled hers the other day. Now, maybe she will stop whining.
EDIT: At the disagree, you're right. I don't know what I was thinking. I don't even have a gf.
These will be gone in a matter of minutes. Already got my Digital Guardian Edition so I'm good.
Paid of my digital copy yesterday for Xbox One via GameStop and the employees spent a good 15 -20 minutes trying to talk me into buying the physical disc over the digital copy because trade in. I told them that this gen is all about digital for me and they laughed. I laughed back and stated that I don't trade in games and it grew silent soon after. In fact that ask if I need help with anything else and wanted no more to do with me lol. Bring on September!!!!
Glad more people have the opportunity to get the edition they want, however they will probably run out fast. This game seems to be selling more than expected.
Now we know where all BestBuys copy's went.lol
