Apologies if there's some rule against pushing YT videos, but I think it's relevant to everyone who plays Destiny, and feel that it's important to spread awareness about microtransactions in the game and how Bungie is continuing to implement them.

Glad he’s pointing it out instead of some rando on Reddit because it is pretty bad. I wish it weren’t like this but also none of us know what it costs to run Bungie.

I’m guilty of spending money on eververse but I don’t think I’m as egregious as others. I have clan mates that immediately spend $20 a season on cosmetics. In the end it’s not up to me to tell them how to spend their hard earned money. I do try to point this shit out to them but also if it wasn’t for people like them and millions of other doing the same then bungie wouldn’t keep doing it. So I’m screaming into the void a bit. I try not to waste too much energy on it.

I think the best thing anyone can do is vote with your wallet or just stop playing. I plan on paying for this game through TFS but after that I think I’m done and that’s okay. We don’t have to keep playing this game forever.
