Right here: (Destiny)

I can only imagine the feeling of having this wonderful story you had planned turn out like shit, but then be unable to fix that because you signed a ten year deal and every game has to be the same.


Oh. It has to be the same because the DLC has to hook in, and because your characters and items have been confirmed to carry over from Destiny to Destiny 2. It has to remain the same basic type of game to continue the business model.

I don't understand. Why, exactly, can't characters and gear transfer over to a game without an investment system? Or more realistically, to a Destiny 2 that has a better, reworked system? And what, exactly, does the business model of a $60 game + multiple paid DLC packs have to do with Destiny's un-monetized, micropayment-less Investment System? It seems to me that you're being your usual unimaginative self coming up with only one possible worst case scenario.

Frankly, it is ridiculous to think that the way Destiny 1 works today is the way Destiny X is going to work nearly a decade from now...
