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.

:Shrug: Don’t buy cosmetics. EZ.

Not even disagreeing, but how many “gamers mad at capitalism” rage-bait posts/articles/vids do we need?

Apparently one for each and every instance of it happening…

Yes, unironically. It doesn't stop happening. If we get too desensitized and passive they'll keep inventing more ways to be terrible.

It used to be that any monetized cosmetics were already seen as a gross cash grab, now people are thankful it's not gameplay related. But there is also plenty of gameplay related ones too. The gaming industry is just so bad now.

I hate that it gets dismissed as just being cosmetic. I love making cool looking characters in games, it's really fun and is part of the content for me, especially if it's multiplayer.
