Is it worth upgrading from Xbox 360 to Xbox One if you want to play Destiny which is looking great on both platforms? This video comparison might help you decide.
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.
Really depends.
I love next gen for the quality of the tech.. Super Fast UI ..No load screens and great online network stability
For these reasons I say yes its worth the upgrade
Just by watching that the X1 version looks much better than the 360 version.
I consider Destiny an 8th gen game, not a 7th. To me, PS3 and 360 versions don't exist.
Also, everyone and their mums are doing comparison videos of starring at the wall in the game.. ????
I really think its not. Ive only played the beta on my PS4, havent bothered with it on X1. The game is very mediocre IMO, I wouldnt upgrade consoles for it.
However I would (and have) upgraded my consoles for lots of other reasons.
Its definitely is worth the jump to THIS gen. Played the beta on my PS3 and liked it, but was really wondering if I wanted to drop the $60 for it. Then I played it on my X1, and knew I'd pull the trigger.
Much improved.
