Mixing real money with in-game rewards is a great thing. (Destiny)

It's very unreasonable to be bothered by Emotes as Nightfall drops.

It is if you'd rather have coins or an exotic.

Oh, give it a rest. Really.

This is a completely separate issue worth thinking about. Should cosmetic stuff drop in only 'casual' activities? What type of loot is acceptable 'reward' for the nightfall? I think it deserves a look. I'm not unhappy that they can drop… but perhaps that they drop in place of better things. Crucible and Vanguard strike rewards sound like a better place.

Even looking at the past raids, the cosmetic items were mostly from a dedicated source and didn't take away your shot at anything more meaningful. You could get the shattered vault cloak from the chest for example, and you'd still get an exotic roll.

When coins started dropping instead of high-level armor, people complained. Then people maxed out their legendary armor and started complaining when they DIDN'T get coins. Just play the game, take what you get.

If you get an emote, be happy you didn't have to pay for it.
