I dismantled my Warlock haha. Needed a second Hunter.

Good thing it was not Ahamkara :)

this comment doesn't even make sense

maybelovehate3100d ago

For the simpletons... it means I deleted my Warlock character so I could create another Hunter. I have a Titan also but you can only have three characters in Destiny.

InTheZoneAC3099d ago

again, why do you need two hunters?

maybelovehate3099d ago

Main reason is to have double the shots at Raid gear for my Hunter. I just enjoy playing with the hunter more. Warlock jump is not very good.

jeremyj29133101d ago

Thought this was pretty obvious, but ok.

jeremyj29133101d ago

That you shouldn't dismantle it since it isn't showing up in the blueprints. What I want to kno is if other year 2 versions of year 1 exotics can be obtained through drops or if they'll all have to be purchased from Xur.

FPSWin3101d ago (Edited 3101d ago )

lol .. not everyone knows if it is or if it is not showing up in blueprints.
About your other question, I will have to do some digging on this.

jeremyj29133101d ago

Guess I'm weird then. As soon as I bought it I ran to the terminal to see if other blueprints may have been added.

Destiny Made Over $160 Million In Microtransaction Revenue In Less Than 2 Years

Destiny has made over $160 million in MTX revenue, and these numbers only account the data from late 2017 to early 2019.

Sgt_Slaughter331d ago

That's extremely low for microtransactions, especially for a game that's essentially designed around it

LucasRuinedChildhood331d ago (Edited 331d ago )

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.

Rude-ro331d ago (Edited 331d ago )

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

Kurt Russell331d ago

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.

buffig331d ago

I think FIFA alone makes over $1bn a year from mtx

anast331d ago

FIFA promotes a worldwide sport. It should make more money than destiny.

CantThinkOfAUsername331d ago (Edited 331d ago )

Let's compare something similar. Apex Legends and its ridiculous $18/$40 skins make EA a billion each year.

z2g331d ago

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.

spicelicka331d ago

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.

There's millions that purchase MTX and there's nothing we can do about it

I've been thinking about playing through D1 again before it goes away...

CobraKai482d ago

That’s the sad reality of a game like this. I bought it, invested lots of money, and it can go away at anytime. I still think this was more fun than 2.

jeromeface481d ago

prob because 2 is a grindfest slog

spoonard479d ago

That's the bummer of 'games as a service'.
