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.

Exactly. This defeatist “iTz jeust opshunal” and “shaming them is a waste of time” response is asking to get fucked over more

Remember Battlefront II when the community got fed up and shamed EA into removing loot boxes?

How about RuneScape recently? Who was slammed so hard they first dug in their heels and then finally relented and pulled their pay to win battle pass?

Also those developers and publishers bitching at Unity need to be quiet because….”capitalism has been complained about enough”

Yes, in all these situations, we consoomers should all just shut up and take it because “it’s been talked about enough already”

This attitude is why Madden players get what they get every year

Keep that attitude up and you’ll see Bungie release an “upgraded” $30 battle pass on top of the current one and take all the cool and useful rewards out of the first paid track just like what Activision did with “Blackcell” for Call of Duty.
