Just when I was giving Bungie credit for taking Destiny 2 armor out of Eververse this season and making it an earned, in-game reward, we now have a situation I’d describe as pretty baffling.

Bungie capitalizing on the FOMO.

Not even that

They want to milk the last drops before shutting the game down

So have fun paying a ton of money for something you won't have access to in a couple years

It's likely a far cry from shutting down, but shutting down is inevitable. Most online only games you only lose access to when they die, but Destiny deletes stuff while it's still alive.

That is why I gave it two years

I wish people would stop being companysexuals

The amount of people who are fine with being fucked over by companies is insane

Like if people actually stopped playing destiny when they removed paid content they would have had such a better experience for the past couple years

Yeah I stopped when I couldn't play the stuff I paid for. Base game plus 3 expansions is a lot of money

But they made it free right before deleting it! That means you didn't lose anything, right? Right?
