Why? (Destiny)

No, it's all crap, and here's why: we're talking about a game

A game with an economy.

I don't see how it being a game matters; you still have to weigh the risks, make a choice, and live with the consequences.

Cody may have considered Xur not selling heavy ammo a low risk, but that's still a risk, and those things happen.
