''My history with Destiny is something I look back on fondly. To be brutally honestly, the initial release back in 2014 was a huge scam. Barely any content and god awful balancing resulted in the whole thing feeling like a Beta. To make matters worse, the DLC plan felt obtrusive and abusive towards the customer. £40 for the core game plus two £20 pieces of DLC within a year. This was disgusting, this was a £80 game.''

The long-rumoured Destiny Mobile game from NetEase may finally be ready for reveal according to multiple leakers.
Phil Spencer talks candidly about missing out on both Destiny and Guitar Hero
So you're saying that Microsoft has missed out on so many huge gaming franchise in the last 25 years from GTA exclusivity to guitar hero and destiny it's just laughable they had so many misses
Best deal deal in gaming must be when Sony bought Insomniac for 229 million dollars. They made over 800 millions on Spiderman for the ps4 alone. Thats just crazy!
another Interview?
how is he the only one who loves the spotlight as much as he does lol
Let's not forget he also famously passed on Spider-man, Genshin Impact and GTA3.
However it's almost kind of cute how he can keep that sh1t-eating grin and say he's a 'no regrets' kind of guy, especially when you think how much just these 5 titles could have swung the world in Xbox's favour instead of Sonys.
How he's kept his job I don't know, he must sure be keeping Papa Nadella's shaft warm somehow.
"But, but Gamepass, he introduced that!!!"
Yes he did, and now look at Xbox, all it's exclusives are coming to Playstation now rendering the platform obsolete.
It's not to boost characters to max level. The max level is now 40. But I they are way too expensive.
I'm not inherently against them because it doesn't affect other players and for noobies who pay straight off to get to level 25 will have no where near the experience I or anyone else who did the grind from 0 to 40 and beyond have. I would have considered this when I go back to play against at some point to boost get a third character up to 25 but not a chance for that cost. I haven't even paid the price for any of the emotes so good luck trying to get me to pay for this. Silly pricing is my problem with it but if people wanna spend the money on it the off you go. It's your money!
technically this isn't really a paid character boost. Most people were gifted a "Spark of Light" to use if you wanted to make a new character (benefited me because I originally had 2 warlocks and a hunter) when the Taken King released.
However, once using this spark, sure you get a level 25 character, but none of your abilities or attributes have been unlocked at all.
You would actually be better off starting at level 1 and working your way up. Instead of trying to do much higher level content without the aid of any special abilities.
I did not realize you could purchase additional sparks though.
But it's not like you are purchasing a maxed out level character here.
I mean take a long look at Skylanders and you wouldn't be surprised the direction Destiny was going.
Destiny was not what I was hoping for.
I'm sadly disappointed, I was hoping for a deep storyline to elegantly drive the unraveling mystery of the traveler.
But no, it's a shooter, a grindy, tedious, repetitive, wallet hungry shooter. With laughable cutscenes that just... meh.
Sorry if I upset any hardcore fans but its only my opinion which is not really important to anyone other than me. But I'm bored and felt like posting something...
I'm gonna go play fallout.
Finally an article pointing out all the bullshit in the Destiny pricing model. This is a full priced game adopting the model of a free-to-play game. How people defend this is beyond me. I really want to play Taken king but I refuse to pay $60 for it.
You're welcome so spend the money, but please don't defend these practices.
