This week’s nightfall strike in Destiny is The Summoning Pits on the Moon. Some will tell you that it requires three brave Guardians to complete, but it can actually be done solo with the right preparation and careful approach.
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.
hmm.. I am level 28. I have that exact same Sniper rifle (although mine is maxxed out at 300 damage) along with the Ice Breaker Sniper Rifle (max damage). I am also a Warlock so as long as my Super is charged I have a free resurrection.
I might actually give this a go and just take it very slow.
Wow this guy is cutting through those Knights like swiss cheese! I need that heavy gun!
Not bad, though you can't nearly be as liberal when taking damage if your anything but a titan. With my titan, I just ran past the first part, did the three waves, ran past the next 2 parts, and then boss.
He was 27 at the time (since I'm leveling his new exotic armor). Cool never the less, I used a fusion rifle + machine gun though. Both work great as long as they are void, dual magnetic grenades make quick work of the shield for wizards, so your fusion / machine gun can do it's work (arc ones that is).
Though, I bet striker would have been a better choice since it does do arc damage. Oh well, done for this week. Not touching that again :O
I'm level 24 and managed to solo this. There's a bunch of rocks closer to the middle. Stand in the right spot and the monster thingy will stand just exposed enough that you can fire freely at him with no shots being fired at you. Some guards pop up but they're easily disposed off. Bit of a grind but easiLy done
The spot in question is near the end of the middle platforms at the last pillar. Handy spot
I will be attempting this.
