Destiny Planet View, purporting to be created using Google Technologies appears to host worlds full of Easter Eggs for the savvy explorers to find.
Head on over there now to jump right in to see what exactly Destiny has to offer from Mars, Venus and the Moon when it is released next week on Spetember 9th.
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.
Tried to use it twice and it keeps crashing Firefox. To be fair, I think it's my computer and not the website. Others, let me know if it's just me. Thanks.
EDIT: Yeah, seems very resource heavy on my machine too. Mine crashes right after the planet "Fly in".
Google already owns Earth. I wonder if this is a hint at what other planets they've added to their army.
IS that all? only 3 planets and not total freedom on them? looks very limited.
It's not particularly smooth on my machine either, and my rig is a bit of a beast. Sad times...
Once you explore the planets you get something. I won't say what and ruin it for those that are willing to go through all of it. I think it's a pretty cool idea. It was a nice way to kill about a half hour.
