So about microtransactions... (Destiny)

My confession is I'm one of those people--you know, part of the problem. I've bought multiple physical copies of Destiny because I wanted the physical ghost, the strange coin, etc. (Yet I've never used one of my Destiny discs, and I've played on all four consoles.) I own all the emotes on two platforms. I never bought multiple copies of anything to increase my chances of getting something (like certain Festival masks), but I have bought one of everything, methinks. (I also own enough Destiny shirts to last several weeks, but that's not really relevant.) I've preordered RoI on both platforms.

The bottom line is that when I consider all the money I've spent on the game, and when I weigh that against the fun I've already had, it's still a good deal.
