Destiny beta is now available on Playstation 3 and Playstation 4. Here are some important tips for playing Destiny Multiplayer beta
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.
Thanks for these little tips but..
I wish games like destiny had a very simple and easy website you can go to, that shows you what you need to know to understand the game and understand what your doing better. Some kind of straight forward tutorial that doesnt take forever to read through, where i can learn.
When i played the alpha for the first time, i say down for probably an hour and messed around, really not fully grasping or understanding what to do, if i was playing right, or how to have fun. I asked another friend who had been playing online for multiple hours what he thought, and he said he wasn't so impressed. A few days later i asked him again, and he said he wrapped his head around it, and it was actually pretty fun and interesting. That prompted me to play through a 2nd time, in which i also started wrapping my head around it and got pretty addicted. Still i feel like there is so much i dont understand, that could make playing feel much more full and fun.
I think that is why many games (new IP's especially) dont get as much attention as they should, because the learning curve to understanding how to have fun is to high. It's not even so much a high learning curve, i dont think a lot of games break down how to play and have fun very well.
Agree? Disagree?
Anyone know how to turn off the auto-aim crap? I don't like aiming at things and not being in control of the reticle.
