Forbes: Polygon published this video comparing dozens of Ghost’s lines delivered by Dinklage and North, courtesy of the massive prep patch delivered to Destiny players yesterday. I wasn’t prepared to ever admit this, but I prefer good ole’ Dinklebot. By a significant margin. And it seems a lot of people feel the same way.
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.
I like Nolan's delivery. It's only weird at first because we've heard Dinklebot for pretty much a full year. Nolan's Ghost is fine
It literally makes no odds. It is strange because you're obviously expecting dink lage to start talking but it's someone else instead but it makeseems no difference in the end. Everyone will have their preference of course but once ttk kicks off and everyone is getting into that we will all forget.
Personally I find Nolan sounds like hes performing a nursery story for a child..... ooooh what big teeth he has........
I dont like it, It seems like a kid voice. We should be allowed to change the voice.
I think they're both equally meh.
