@rosinmonkekyx17: Paying for content doesn't bother me as it's not uncommon for an MMORPG, especially one that is free-to-play. What bothers me is the is how underhanded their tactics are for making extra money through microtransactions. I think companies should make profit but it's the way they go about it that bothers me.
I played this game for years and built a very good clan. However, the game got really stale and pandered way too much to casuals by making the game way too simplistic. The devs are also very greedy, decreasing loot drops but providing you the ability to pay to unlock loot-locked content. The keep "rebalancing" the powersets so you are compelled to keep buying respec tokens.
@silversix_ Yeah, there really is no need to do VoG anymore. Yes, some people will do it just for fun but without upgraded rewards, a lot of people will simply move on.
@relgn Then just go to Destinylfg.com to get a group. If you had matchmaking you'd be in the raid with terrible players and would then be complaining that it's too hard.
@KealGSeo I've put many hours into the game too but I haven't been nearly as lucky as you apparently. Xur makes the loot system considerably more bearable for me. Don't get me wrong, I think that making exotics so readily available isn't good either. Personally I think they should have made it so that exotics never drop randomly. They should have made it so that the only way to get exotics is to buy exotic bounties from Xur for something like 200 Strange Coins.
The only way you can remotely come close to eradicating this sort of behaviour is by taking away anonymity. So long as people feel securely out of reach, a large proportion will continue to behave this way.
@Goranar @jmichura If your choice of videogame consoles is really gonna contribute to you resting easier, then you have some things to re-evaluate. It's just videogames.
